Sing: The Era of Music

Chapter 17: A Big Surprise

In the middle of the night, Porsha woke up feeling sick. "Oh. I don't feel so good." said Porsha in her thoughts as she sluggishly walks into the bathroom and vomits in the toilet. "I've been sick for a while now. What is it? Junk food? No, it can't be. I hadn't eaten junk food in a while." said Porsha. She looks in the mirror and pulls her shirt up. She noticed her stomach gained a little weight as she rubbed it slowly. She then goes into the cabinet and pulls out a pregnancy test. Few minutes later, Porsha looks at the test. It was positive. Porsha gasped. "Oh my gosh! I'm pregnant!!" said Porsha in her thoughts. The next morning, Chris left for his studio, giving Porsha the opportunity to surprise him. She heads to the store and grabs everything she needed. She spent 2 hours working before everything was ready. "Ok. Here we go." she said as she sat on the couch. Soon, he returned. "Hey, honey. Honey?" said Chris as he entered the living room as he sees her on the couch with the decorations. "Honey? What's this?" asked Chris. He looks at the things before seeing the pregnancy test. He gasped and looks at Porsha. "Babe...are you serious?" asked Chris as he slowly teared up. "Yes." said Porsha as she too teared up. Chris cried his eyes out as he hugs Porsha tightly. "I've always wanted a family. I'm so happy." said Chris. "Me too." said Porsha. Soon, they visit Claudia to tell her the news. "Chris! Porsha! Welcome, what brings you here?" asked Claudia. "Well, we have some news. And I think your gonna like it." said Porsha as she gives her a present. Claudia opens it as she sees a shirt. "I'm gonna be a grandmother." said Claudia as she immediately gasps and looks at Porsha. "Are you pregnant?" asked Claudia as she nodded. She then screams in excitement and hugs them both. Later, they drove to Malcolm's house to tell him and like Claudia, he was excited and happy. Chris and Porsha eventually told the Moon Troupe and they celebrated. 3 months later, Porsha's stomach got a little bigger, showing a bump. They went to the doctor to examine the baby. "Honey, I'm nervous. I've never done this before. What should I do?" asked Porsha. "Aw, babe. You don't have to do anything. My mom told me this when she was pregnant with me, they would put cream on your stomach and place a scanner. So that way you can see the baby." explained Chris. "Oohh." said Porsha. The doctor then enters. "Alright, ma'am, are you ready for the scan?" asked the doctor. Porsha nods as she pulls up her shirt. The doc then placed cream on her stomach as she squealed. "It's a bit cold." said Porsha as Chris and the doctor chuckled. A few minutes into the scanning, they got a perfect sight of the baby. "Chris...look at our baby." said Porsha as she sheds tears. Chris smiled and held Porsha's hand. "Well, the baby is in great condition! Would you like to know the gender?" asked the doctor. "Yes. No wait after the birth! Wait!" stammered Porsha. "Babe, relax. We like to know after the baby is born." said Chris. Soon, they drove back home. "So Chris...what happens throughout the pregnancy?" asked Porsha. "I don't know. Contractions or something? But two things for sure, your bound to have cravings and have mood swings." said Chris. "Cravings?" asked Porsha. "Yeah, it's basically eating frequently." said Chris. "Oh. Well alright then. Mood swings?" said Porsha. "Might throw an emotional attitude." said Chris. "How do you know so much about this?" asked Porsha. "My dad. He kind of hates the mood swings my mom used to throw when she was pregnant with me." said Chris. Since that day, that's what's been happening. Porsha's been having cravings. Chris wakes up in the middle of the night to get a drink but froze as he sees a light in the kitchen. Chris looks at the fridge and sees Porsha eating food. "Mmm! Chris's cake is good! Might have to ask him to make another." said Porsha as she ate a slice, bare-handed. She froze when she saw him with a surprised look on his face. She nervously chuckled. "Hi." said Porsha as she covered her mouth and burped. Chris chuckled. "What a woman." he said in his thoughts. Then she's been emotional. Porsha was crying. "Why can't you spend time with me? I wanna be with you." she said as she sobbed. "Babe, it's just for a few hours. I just gotta get some errands at the studio. Won't take long." said Chris. "Please. Just sit this one out. Please." said Porsha as she looks at him with sad eyes. Chris groaned. "Fine, fine. I'll stay." he said as Porsha sat next to him and held his arm. *The next day* "Why can't this fit?!" exclaimed Porsha as she tried to put on pants. But she stumbled. "CHRIS!!!" yelled Porsha as Chris came. "What's going on?" asked Chris. "I can't fit in my stupid pants." said Porsha angrily as she threw the pants to the ground. Chris sighed. "Babe, relax. I'll go shopping for clothes later today. Until then, just wear some sweatpants and maybe put on a larger shirt. I can see your lower belly." he said as he rubs her belly. Porsha sighed. "Alright, fine. Just don't get anything too large." she said as later Chris got sweatpants and a hoodie for Porsha to wear when she goes out in public. 5 months later, Porsha was now 8 months pregnant. She wakes up and the first thing she sees is her large baby bump. She then hugs Chris from behind. "Buenos dias, sweetie." said Porsha. "Buenos dias." said Chris as they kissed. He soon looks at Porsha's stomach. "And buenos dias to you too." said Chris as he kissed her stomach. Porsha giggled as she gently rubs her stomach. The couple then got dressed. "So babe? What can we do today?" asked Porsha. Chris then approaches her and hugs her from behind. "How about we start making the baby's room? We can go shopping for supplies to decorate the baby's room." said Chris as Porsha smiled. They got in the car as they drove to a supply store to grab supplies and headed back home to make the room. 2 hours later, they were done. "Wow! This looks amazing!" said Chris as they hugged. "The baby is gonna love this." said Porsha as she puts the final touch. The couple soon went to bed. Porsha rubs her stomach as she felt a kick. "Oh! I feel it kicking! Come feel it." said Porsha as she puts Chris hand on her stomach. "It's almost time, little one. I can't wait to see you come out of there." said Chris as Porsha smiled and lets out a yawn. "Let's get some sleep. I'm tired." she said as they lay in bed. They both fall asleep peacefully as Chris wraps his arm around Porsha's stomach. "Almost time." he said tiredly as he felt the baby kick once more.
