Hidden Truth

Chapter 4

  Kara despised throwing up. She had never known what it feels like to empty you stomach, until a week ago. Today she had her head in the toilet as she puked what she ate last night. Alex rubbed small circles on her sisters back and held her hair back. Once Kara was sure she had nothing left in her stomach she brushed her teeth.

"I despise this so much. Alex make it go away." Kara whined to her older sister.

"Kara it's been a week since you started with morning sickness you should be use to it." Alex told the alien. Saying her quick goodbye Kara left to get her boss's latte. Once Kara had the hot beverage she walked into the Catco building. Cat walked in and Kara handed her the latte. Cat took one sip and tossed it to the garbage.

"It's cold." Cat said walking away and Kara trailed behind. "I want to see the final set up for the end of the month gala and the food you selected." Cat took a good look at Kara and notice the girl look different. "Keira honestly you should start watching yourself or you'll no longer fit into your clothes." Kara looked down and noticed that in fact she had gained a little weight. It wasn't that noticeable really but if you really looked at her you'd notice it. Kara walked over to Cat with her iPad in hand and began to show Cat the final selection.

"The food selected was Mexican, and the selected evening was for all employees to be dressed in white, just like you wanted." Kara explained showing Cat the pictures in her iPad. "Also for dessert there's a selection between red velvet cake or German chocolate cake. Would you like me to make any changes?" Please don't say yes Kara internally hoped.

"No everything is fine." Cat dismissed Kara. "I expect to see you there Supergirl." Cat knew mentions Supergirl would get Kara to do nearly anything. Kara continued the planning the gala. Her and Winn worked to get some proof reading done.

"Kara are you okay?" Winn asked.

"Yes Winn I'm fine why?"

"It's just you look different it's almost as if you're glowing." Kara understood what Winn was asking. A lot of people had mentioned that she had this happy glow. Of course she was happy.

"Winn I'm going to let you in on a secret only three people know." Kara said. "You can't tell anyone okay only Alex, Lucy and myself know. Winn I'm pregnant." Winn heartbroken in that instant smile because he was happy that Kara was pregnant.

"Kara that's great!" Winn hugged Kara. Placing his hand on her stomach softly only to have Kara gently slap it. "What?" Winn was confused as in why Kara had slapped his hand.

"No one knows in here so please keep your hands off my belly." Kara explained. Winn nod in understanding. Walking over to Miss Grant's office Kara reminded Miss Grant she had a meeting in an hour. Miss Grant gave a small nod and Kara walked back out to see Alex had already arrived. Lucy and Alex had made a deal that everyday one of them would bring Kara lunch to make sure she ate.

"Can we eat here or should we go eat in my car." Alex questioned not wanting Kara to get in trouble.

"We can eat in the employee lounge." Kara said taking Alex's hand and leading the way. In the lounge Kara and Alex took a seat and began to eat the tacos Alex brought.

"Oh before I forget here," Alex handed Kara a small pill. "take this pill it's prenatal victims for you. When you get home I will have a bottle ready for you." Kara took the pill and swallowed it.

"What does this help with?" Kara hadn't looked much into about baby's but she did know that hopefully when the baby was born her maternal instinct would kick in.

"They help both you and the baby get the supplements you two need. It doesn't harm the child in any way I promise." Alex assured Kara. Kara soon forgot about her worries and enjoyed lunch with her sister. Small talk was exchanged about both the women's day until finally Alex dropped the question she desperately wanted the answer to.
