Meaning of Family

Temperance Miller,

So I'm in bed miserable out my mind and thought maybe just maybe I could sleep my stomach pains away but I thought wrong because Justin, Leela, and my momma is here.

"Why you pouting?" Justin asked laying at the foot of the bed.

"Can y'all please just leave and come back in like never." I said seriously but all they did was laugh.

"Yo daughter funny." Leela said shaking her head.

"Real funny, she could have been a whole comedian." Mama said looking at me.

"Yep I could just laugh at her the whole way to this doctor's appointment." Justin said standing up.

I looked at them as they surrounded me. I frowned my eyebrows and rolled over to Ant's side, well attempted to but they grabbed my ankles. They pulled me back and then grabbed my hands pull me up. As soon as I stood straight up a wave of nausea hit me.

"You okay?" Justin asked as I slowed down my breathing and started taking deep breaths.

I shook my head no and tried to make it to the toilet but as soon as I tried to move, everything my stomach contained came up and right on to the floor.

"Oh dear God." Momma said holding my hair back as Justin healed a trash can up to my mouth and Lele started cleaning up the mess I had made.

"You still doubt she pregnant Mama T?" Justin asked with a smirk sitting on his face.

"Trust a mother knows when her child is bearing a child and mines is not." She replied back in a very confident voice.

"Ion know Mama T she has all the symptoms." Lele said before taking the trash and everything out the room.

I just sat on the bed and looked at them.

"Well Anthony thinks she pregnant and since he having sex with her, I'm sure he would know before us." Justin said.

"You know all y'all wrong and I'm gone prove it." Momma said.

"How she can't stand up without vomiting?" Justin asked.

"Justin shut up please." Mama said helping me up.

As we walked to the bathroom she rubbed small circles onto my stomach.

After I got myself together and took a nausea pill, I go dressed and left with them to my doctor's office.

"I don't remember making an appointment." I said lowly as Mama drove.

"You didn't I did." She said turning onto the street where my doctor's office sit.

Once she parked, we all got out and walked inside.

I signed in and as soon as I was about to sit down they called my name to the back.

I followed the nurse to the room I would be waiting on my doctor in and while I waited the nurse went ahead and took my blood pressure, weight, heart rate, etc.

"Hello Temperance what's seem to be the problem today?" Dr.Coles asked sitting on the stool.

"Well they made the appointment to see if I'm pregnant." I said pointing to three Musketeers in the counter.

"And you don't think you are?"

"I mean I don't know, my husband thinks I am and I have been very nauseous lately." I said running my hands down my pants.

"With or without vomiting?"

"Both."

"How many times a day?"

"Three."

"Okay have your breast felt tender or are they swollen?"

"The was tender the other day but other then that no."

"Increase in urination?"

"Yes."

"Fatigue?"

"Very."

"When was your last ministerial cycle?"

"Um about a month ago."

"Okay well the symptoms are definitely there so I'll go get a cup." She said standing up.

Once she came back with the cup, I walked into the bathroom and peed in the cup. I then washed may hands and used a paper towel to take her the cup.

I was not touching that with my hands for nothing in the world.

"So you excited?" Lele asked with a wide smile.

"Hm I don't really know." I answered playing with my fingers.

After what seem like hours of waiting Dr. Coles finally came back with the results.

"Well your pregnant." She said sitting down.

"Really?"

"Yes but to make sure the test is accurate I would like to do an ultrasound."

"Okay." I said leaning back on the bed.

She rolled my shirt up and she put the gel on my stomach after turning the probe on. I didn't even notice there was a ultrasound machine in here. We all looked at the screen and I couldn't help but frown my eyebrows when I noticed what I was looking at.

I sat up on my elbows and looked at my Dr. Coles as she looked up at me.

"What's wrong?" Mama and Leela asked.

"She's not pregnant." Justin said lowly.

I can't believe this like I really hope it's not as bad as it looks on the screen.
