Fall'n For The New Guy | | Harrison Reid

Chapter 110

"So based on what you told me you have hyperemesis gravidarum." The doctor tells me

"What's that?" I ask before Harrison did.

"Hyperemesis gravidarum refers to intractable, hard to control, vomiting during pregnancy, leading to weight loss and volume depletion,resulting in ketonuria." She pauses, "It's nothing to be concerned about, but this is why you are having auditory hallucinations."

"And this causes me to see things as well?" I question

"That's correct, because of the sudden loss in weight it causes hallucinations. So what I'm going to get you to do is eat more frequent, smaller meals, and avoid foods or odors that trigger vomiting. So foods that are harder to digest like red meat or anything that is heavy on your stomach." She tells me, "And be sure to drink water with your food, it help the digestion."

"Okay."

"Have you been seeing any stars or short of breath at all?" She asks as she puts the pressure meter on my arm.

"No. Why what does that mean if I see stars?" I ask as I feel the pressure on my arm.

"It means that your blood pressure is high, which is very concerning. If you ever experience this head to the emergency right away. But based off of your blood pressure you are alright." She puts the meter away and starts to type on her computer. "Everything seems to be covered, any questions?"

I look at Harrison asking him with my eyes.

"No prescriptions needed or anything?" Harrison asks

"Nope, not as of now. If she continues to vomit after meals come back here and I will prescribe something that will help." She tells him, Harrison nods. "What about you Teresa? Any questions?"

"Um...no I don't think so."

"Well if you ever do just make an in phone appointment and I can answer your questions." She tells me

"Okay sounds good." I nod

"Well hope you guys have a wonderful rest of your day." He gets off her chair and opens the door for us.

"You too." I smile Harrison copying.

Once the door closes I take a breath, "That's a relief." I chortle nervously, "At least I was just hallucinating Hayden."

Harrison takes my hand in his and gives it a squeeze, "See? Nothing to worry about." He smiles his green hazel eyes almost looking brown.

~~

Once I dropped Harrison off back at our house I head back to work for the second half.

"Hey boys." I greet as I walk into the tower.

"So? How was your appointment?" Maxi is the first to ask

"I have nothing to worry about!" I smile proudly, "Deano was right I just need to eat smaller portions of food more frequently."

"And this caused your hallucinations as well?" Harries asks

"Yeah, it's called uhhh hyperemesis gravidarum?" I question if I said it right or not. "But that means uncontrollable vomiting, and because of the sudden drop in weight it causes hallucinations." I tell them as I sit down grabbing the binoculars looking out them.

"So you will be alright then? And Hayden didn't actually escape from jail?" Maxi asks

I can't help but to have a wide smile, "yup."

"Oi, did you eat yet?" Maxi points out.

"Yeah Harrison fed me on my way back home."

He squints his eyes and purses his lips, "You better have, don't want to fainting or seeing that awful ex."

"Tell me about it." I chuckle

A couple minutes pass with silence and Harries is the first to break it, "So. Excited for your wedding? 2 more days to go!" He says excitedly

"I'm not sure if I'm excited or nervous...maybe both," I scratch the back of my head chuckling nervously.

The hours pass my like nothing, and it's closing time. Me and Maxi start to close the shutters while Harries does the last call on the buggy to the beach goers.

"Sooo...." Maxi starts, I hum in response. "I heard Jake is coming back into work tomorrow.."

"He is?" I ask, "Because Harrison starts work tomorrow too, I thought maybe Hoppo would split their shifts."

"Maybe he just has one in the tower and one on the buggies."

"That makes sense. It has been quite busy as well." I trail off. "Oh hey, what about that garage door? What are you guys going to do with that?"

"Oh well it's supposed to be fixed tomorrow."

"How exactly did that happen." I smirk at Maxi

"One of the buggies were stuck in the sand and well....i was trying to get it out and I backed up right into the door."

"Yikes. Is it going to come out of your pay check?"

"Hoppo told me not to worry about it." Maxi tells me as he grabs his things. I follow suit grabbing my things as well.

~~

I walk in the apartment door to see a box of pizza on the table.

"I ordered pizza." Harrison says sitting at the table

"I can see that." I laugh, I sniff the air, "Why does it smell like something is burning?"

"I burn the casserole I made..." he looks down in defeat.

"I'm okay with Pizza. That's so sweet you were trying to make a casserole for me." I smile sitting next to him after dropping my stuff on the counter.

"Yeah.."

I open the box and grab a slice, "I can help you make something tomorrow night, maybe we can do the casserole?"

"That's sounds like a good idea." He gives a half smile grabbing a slice as well.
