Marriage Before Love

6

It's been exactly three weeks, two days, eight hours, twenty seven minutes, five seconds and counting since that night spent with Maliky. In short, worst day of my life. The day I started vomiting for some reason unknown to me. Zane thinks that I may be pregnant but I say he's crazy.

"Zanya, I'm a medical student, plus I have Kyle. I know the symptoms"

"You don't get it, Zane. I can't be pregnant, we used a..." I paused remembering that there was no condom. "shit"

Realization dawned on me. I might be pregnant. Maliky doesn't even want to see my face much less to hear my voice. I'm so scared right now. I grabbed my wallet and shoved it into my pocket. Running out of the house with my phone in hand, I called my gynecologist.

"Doctor Stubble, how may I help you" came his voice through the receiver.

"Are you busy right now, George?" I asked sniffling.

"Zanya, is that you?" he asked, not bothering to answer my question

"Yeah it's me" I answered before asking if 'he was busy' again.

"No. In fact, I'm just heading to lunch now" he replied as I hopped into my car and drove off.

"I'm on my way".

At the clinic, I got a pregnancy test done, courtesy of Doctor George Stubble. Results came back with a plus sign in the top left hand corner. Not knowing what it meant, I decided to go ahead and read what it says.
