Y/n's P.O.V
"Blegh!" I puked into a trash can.

"You feeling okay, Y/n?" Tang asks, looking concerned.

I gave a thumbs up. "Never better--blegh!" I puked again.

"You sure you're okay, kid? You've been throwing up for the past week. You're not sick, are you? If you're sick, you can't deliver noodles until you get better." Pigsy told me.

"I'm fine, Pigsy. It's probably something I ate the other week." I wiped my mouth off.

"I don't know about this kid, maybe you should take a break." Pigsy said.

"What? I said I'm fine. Besides, I'm about to go see Sandy, he said he has some ginger tea to help with this nausea." I said to them.

"Still, if you're still throwing up, no more delivering noodles until it stops, got it?" Pigsy asks.

"Yeah yeah, got it. See you two later." I waved bye to them, got on my motorcycle, and headed to Sandy's boat.

"Hey, Sandy." I greeted him, parking my motorcycle.

"Hey, Y/n." He smiled.

"Do you got that tea I asked for?" I asked him.

"Yep, right here." He handed me a cup.

"Thank you, now let's see if this will get rid of this nausea." I took a sip, but it didn't taste like ginger, more like peppermint. "Weird, why does it taste like peppermint instead of ginger?"

"That's because it's peppermint tea, it's supposed to help alleviate the morning sickness." Sandy explained.

"Oh." I took another drink of the tea, before realizing what Sandy meant. Immediately, I spit out the tea. "What?!"

"Yeah, gotta make sure that little one or little ones are healthy." Sandy said with an innocent smile.

I let the teacup fall out of my hand, causing it to shatter on the deck. "What would make you think I'm pregnant?"

"Well, it's just, the other week, you and Redson did the thing, and you've been having morning sickness since last week, so I just thought it was that." Sandy fumbled, trying to clean up the broken teacup.

"Sorry if I snapped a little Sandy, let me help you." I helped him clean the teacup up.

"It's okay, Y/n. It's probably just those hormones." He threw the broken teacup away.

I sighed, pressing my hand against my forehead. "I can't believe this, I need to make sure."

"Maybe you can ask Mei for help?" Sandy suggested.

"Yeah, I can, thanks, Sandy." I got on my motorcycle.

"No problem, anytime." He said.

"Oh, and one more thing. Please don't tell anybody about this until I confirm it." I told him.

Sandy gave a thumbs-up as I drove off.

I stood outside the pharmacy, pulling out my phone to call Mei.

"Hey, Mei. Could you maybe come down to the pharmacy downtown? I need to tell you something."

Mei said sure before hanging up.

Not a moment later, Mei arrived.

"So, what is that you wanted to tell me? And why meet you at a pharmacy?" She asked me.

"Well, this might sound crazy, so please don't freak out." I said.

"I promise to not freak out about whatever you're about to tell me." She says.
