Jessica was asleep in the hospital bed and James was by her side. The doctors had done all the necessary tests, Jessica and the baby were fine. James stayed surprised by the news that Jessica was pregnant, knowing that he was going to be a father again made him very happy. But despite the great news, he could not forget that Jessica had tried to kill herself.
"Why would you do that, baby?" he stroked her face while she still slept peacefully.
"I'm sorry, I should not have left you alone" a tear fell from his eye and he immediately wiped it away.
"Hey ..." he said as he saw Jessica opening her eyes "... it's okay now."
"Hey" she said sounding sleepy.
"How do you feels?" he asked as he stroked her belly.
"I feel good. James, was she?" she asked worried tears in her eyes.
"No, it was not her" he said as he wiped her tears.
"Thank God" she held his hand in her belly.
"Baby, I'm sorry about that. I do not know what hit me, I just wanted this pain to go away," she said through her tears.
"Jessica, it's my fault, I should not have left you alone" he stared at her.
"No, it's not your fault. It was not you who cut my wrist ..." she pulled him closer "... I'm sorry" she whispered as tears continued to fall.
"It'll be all right now, I promise" he wiped her tears away again and kissed her softly on the lips.
"Jessica, I need to tell you something."
"What?".
"Jessica ..." he held her hand "... you're pregnant."
"Pregnant?" she looked at him confused ".... but ... I can not get pregnant".
"Of course you can. Baby, you're pregnant" he smiled.
"James, how is this possible?" she stared at him.
"Well, we had sex ... so" he said, making her smile.
"I know how to make a baby, James. You understand what I mean."
"Baby, I do not know how, I just know we're having a baby and I'm really happy about it" he looked at her with a twinkle in his eyes.
"I'm happy too ... I'm going to have a baby ..." she smiled "... our baby".
"And I love you even more for that" he kissed her belly.
Jessica smiled and pulled him into a kiss "I love you too."
"Jessica, did not you even suspect you were pregnant?" James asked suddenly.
"No. I mean, I was late, but I thought it was menopause or something. I thought it was odd that was vomiting, I thought it was because was not feeding me right ... " Jessica was talking when James interrupted her "... speaking of this, from now on this will change" he warned her.
"I know James. I have to think about the baby now" she said smiling.
"That's right, and I'll watch you 24 hours."
"Of course you will." She kissed him quickly on the lips and smiled.
They were interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Hi, Mrs. Parker, it's good to know you're awake, how are you feeling?" asked the doctor.
"I feel fine, thank you" Jessica replied.
