Other Infinities- (A Sequel to TFIOS)

3. Boy or Girl?

Today is Tuesday that day of my OBGYN appointment. Today I get to find out if it's a boy or girl!! Finally. I have been thinking of names for the baby. I know it's too early. I have six more months. If I were to have a boy I would name it Gus from Augustus. If I had a girl I would name her Anna from An Imperial Affliction. It's been my favorite book since forever.

I asked my mom to come with me to this appointment. I didn't want to be alone. If it wasn't for Gus's death, he would be here. This one is the most important out of all of them.

One if the nurses calls my name. I drag my oxygen tank behind me while I follow the nurse into the room where they will do an ultrasound. They put this weird clear gel on my belly and put a microphone looking device on it and move it around. I hear the baby's heartbeat and almost cry.

You have no idea how amazing it feels to hear a baby's heartbeat. I'm so glad my baby does not have cancer. She is totally healthy. And I'm grateful.

I am almost nine months pregnant. Three months left. The baby has been moving around a lot lately. The baby's been kicking a lot more. Which shows that she wants to come out. I've been feeling better. But much more tired than normal. For the past few months I've been feeling the baby kick more than normal. I remember what the doctor told me. 'Theres a 50% chance that the baby will consume cancer when she's born. There's also a chance she will be perfectly healthy. Since both the mother and father has cancer.' It's pretty scary to know that my baby may have a chance to get cancer.

I fall asleep that night thinking of Gus and when we met for the first time.

He was just staring at me. When I went to the Support group for the first time. I sat there and pretended I didn't notice him. When I looked at him he smiled. I smiled back. After we did the praise. We went outside and talked for what seemed like hours. That what started our relationship. My mom was right when she said to go and meet friends. I met someone that's more than a friend to me. Augustus Waters.

It feels different now. It feels like Gus is watching over me. Sometimes I get the feeling of him touching me. It sends chills through my body every time. It feels like he's still alive in a way. I felt like I was going to die when he died. I couldn't control myself for over a month. Then I found out I was pregnant. And that it's his baby. If he's still alive he may meet his son or daughter soon.

The next day I go to Gus's grave. I hear someone call my name. It sounded like my mother but I'm not too sure. It could be my dad or Isaac. I have no clue.
