Sitting outside the Dr's door, I fidgeted with my tight fotted skirt before pulling out my phone for like the third time in the last ten seconds, yep, I'm officially freaking out. Ali have been with the good doctor for the better part of the last three hours and nobody has come put yet to get me out of my misery, well aside from the lab tech, but they're not that important. Oh they are that important, but they're not as important as my friend and the doctor that's been checking on her.

Just then I saw the same blue overall wearing technician come back holding a clipboard. I stood-up and prevented them from immediately going inside the room, and because I also need information, like right the fuck now.

"Hi, I came in with the patient, Ms Jamorgan, but there's still no news coming from the doctor. Is there anything wrong with my friend, because I have to inform our Ohana you know." I began with pleading eyes, "I also need to know now because they're kind of important people and I want to know how to break the ice to them as I've previously mentioned important people with important things to do other than worrying about a family member, and when I say important things I actually meant bringing the cup back to Chicago. Are you a hockey fan? If you are then you know that we currently have the big red dot behind our backs and we don't need to worry if it's not really that grave of an illness, not that whatever Alisson is feeling is not that important..." I explained before I felt a hand on my shoulder stopping my chatter. See anxious.

I stared at the technician with mouth agape before O saw them smile softly, "I understand that you are worried about your friend but I can't actually disclose this to you. The doctor needs to inform our patient first before talking to their families." they explained making me shut my mouth with a click, "I promise that I will get you in ten, we just have to let doc talk to Alisson okay?" they replied before sidestepping me and continuing inside the room.

Okay, if they don't get me in ten, I'll just barge inside that room! One Mississipi...Two Mississippi...Three Mississippi...Four Mississippi...Five Mississippi...Six Mississippi...Seven Mississippi... I approached the door and grabbed the handle, when I reached eight Mississippi... At nine Mississippi, I turned the knob and at ten Mississippi, I pushed the door and stepped in making the three other occupants look at me. The tech said ten right? Was it minutes or seconds? They didn't clarify it's their fault.

I saw Alisson just shake her head at me before motioning at the chair beside her, to which I immediately sat on, "So what's the news?" I asked the doctor.

The doctor smiled at me before looking down at the document they were holding. "Doc, how's my friend?" I demanded before turning towards Ali, "How are you doing?" I asked worriedly, "Have they said anything to you since clearly they don't want to disclose it with me and... Sorry doc," I whispered as I blushed deeply, I am starting again "I'm just really worried and anxious about this news." I told them before I felt Ali squeezing my arm to calm me down.

"It's okay Ms Villanueva" they started, "but there is nothing to worry about, it is actually good news" they continued smiling at the two of us, "Ms Jamoragan is currently on her sixteenth week." they revealed.

Sixteenth week, sixteenth week what? Wait... "She's pregnant?" I asked in a whisper before I saw the doctor nodded with a smile. I turned towards my still silent friend with wide eyes, "Oh my gosh..." I started before a beautiful smile blossomed on my face. "Mommy!" I stated loudly in happiness.

Alisson just turned to me with a teary smile, "Tita Andy!" she replied before she placed a hand on her rounded stomach. How the hell did we not notice that soon?! "Oh my goodness..." she continued before her tears started to fall as we finally hugged, "...I can't believe that I'm about to give Ty a biological child of his own." she sobbed.
