CHRONICLES OF A GOOD GIRL: The player's wife

Chapter 13

RENAE

On my way to my doctors appointment, just dropped the kids off to school. I had to go into the office and explain to Mir teacher why he wasn't gonna be at school. That shit just made me annoyed all over again. Well on a positive note today I get to find out what the sex of the baby is. I wish my baby could be here but the good thing is the season is almost over. Its like 3 more months to go, I cant wait for it to be over so I can have my man home. I be missing those tummy rubs and foot and back massages.

After I come from my appointment imma go see Mama Carrie, they say she was doing better but she has been having a lot of ups and downs. In the 4 years Dae and I been together I think this is the worst it has been for her. Ion know but it seems to me like we will be preparing for the worst. I dnt say anything do Dae about how I feel because he already feels bad enough. He doesn't even want to think about the worst he just keeps saying it will get better it always does. For his sake I hope he is right.

I park the car and walk into the doctors office and sign in and have a seat. After about 30 mins they call me to the back. I get undressed and put on my gown so I can be examined. I go into the bathroom and give some urine and come back in and sit down.

"Hello Mrs Johnson how are we doing today" the doc comes in and says

"We are doing pretty good Doc"

I lay back and he listens to the baby and I get to her the heartbeat. The little heartbeats be so fast its amazing. He checked my cervix to make sure everything was looking good .The doc had this weird look on his face after I sat up and pulled down my gown.

"Everything ok Doc"

" Yes but I have a hunch about something, sit tight and I will be right back."

"Ok".

I shrugged my shoulders and just sat back and waited for him to come back. The nurse came in to take me for the ultrasound. I went into the room and she turned off the lights.

"has anything be out of the ordinary Mrs. Johnson"

" no, why do you ask?"

"hmmm" she said and kept moving the wand around on my belly

"How has your appetite been?"

"I'm always hungry but I try so hard not to pig out but sometimes I cant help it"

"ok, I see. I'm going to show you something I want you to look very carefully ok"

"Sure ok" I like why is she asking stuff like that she usually doesn't ask"

"Here is the heart here" she says and circles it. "And look here its the heart" she says again and circles it. I'm like why is she showing me It twice.

"Here is an arm and another, and a leg and another, see the head right here"

"I see it , oh my its awesome"

"and here is an arm and another and boths legs and head"

"ok"

"so you see what I mean right Mrs Johnson"

"Yeah baby looks good"

"No Mrs. Johnson the babies look good" she said and I look at her like she is crazy

"What!!"

She giggles and says "You are having twins Mrs Johnson"

"Huh! Twins! are you serious" wow oh my goodness, twins. I cant believe this shit right here. Aint no twins in my family and as far as I know aint none in Dajons either.
