Heaven's Cry

Chapter 4

No.

I ran up to her and grabbed all four out of her hand. 2 had a plus sign and the other two had 2 lines. I put them on the table and put my hands to my face. How could I be pregnant? How long? All these thoughts came rushing to me. Tara still had the biggest smile plastered on her face.

"I can't be pregnant Tara. I can't do this alone. Tyler isn't here. I have no parents. Who's going to help me raise a baby?!" She shook her head and raised her hand.

"Maybe your bestfriend?! Who happens to be amazing at being a bestfriend and now an amazing aunt/god mama!" She said putting her hands on my stomach.

She was excited for this, but I only felt my stomach turning once again. Taking deep breaths the sickness went away and I calmed down.

"Come on, we're going to the local clinic to find out more on my god baby." She said dragging me to the door. I grabbed my bag and followed her.

This could not be true.
------------------------------

When the nurse finally called us in, she took the paper with my information and left the room. 3 minutes later came in a lady with a dark skin and curly hair.I already had my shirt pulled up exposing my belly, which had something that could pass for a small baby bump. I shook my head.

"Hello. My name is Dr.Kelling." She said smiling at us and giving a quick hand shake. "It says here you want an ultrasound to see if you really are pregnant because you don't think the test were right. Is this accurate?" I nodded my head. I had to give them my urine before I came in for them to test, but I wanted this as well.

She went into the closet and grabbed a white tube. I grabbed Tara's hand gaining her attention and she smiled at me. I could tell Tara was hopefull but this was only making me feel sick. When the doctor finished setting everything up, she squeezed the cold gel on my stomach and started to move the ultrasound transducer around.

On the monitor everything started off blurry, but then things got clear. And right in the center of the screen was a small little baby

My small little baby

My eyes welled with tears and I felt Tara grip my hand tighter.

"The test were right Lyla. This right here, is your baby, and based on the looks of the embryo, you seems to be 13 weeks. You're about 3 months pregnant Lyla. Congratulations."

My heartbeat speed up and I felt dizzy once more. I got up pushing the doctor out the way and vomited into the garbage can. Dr.Kelling handed me a napkin and a cup of water.

" I don't get it, if I'm so far along, why am I just now getting sick?"

"Morning sickness doesn't happen to everyone. But sometimes multiple things can trigger it. Do you have a disease?" I shook my head. "Have you been sick from something else?" I shook my head once more. "Have you been stressed lately?" I almost shook my head and then I caught myself.

"Yes." I said to her.

"That is probably why the morning sickness got triggered for you. The real cause of morning sickness is unknown, but we do know not everyone gets it right after fertilization. This is most likely why you didn't know." She explained.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" I asked. I didn't want to keep calling my child an it.

"It's too early to tell. You can come back in 2 months for the most accurate sex."

I nodded. I was pregnant. With Tyler baby. With my baby. In 6 months, I would be pushing a baby out that I'd either be holding or giving up.

"Would you like some pictures?" She asked me I looked up at Tara who smiled at me then looked at the doctor and answered for me.

"Yes. 5 please."
