"Yea I'm ready." She said coming down the stairs

"I hope your pregnant." I whispered to myself

I heard her laugh as I drug her to the door.

Memorial Hospital
"What can I help you with today Ms.Asia?"

"Well I was wondering if....I could uhh..."

"Pregnancy Test please." I asked Mrs. May with a smile

"It's okay to be nervous." She laughed handing Asia a cup to urinate in

Asia gave me an unsure smile before walking out the room to the bathroom. I rubbed my over my jeans a few times before letting out another huge smile.

"I see you've wanted this for a very long time."

"Yes since I was 17. I've always wanted a family of my own."

"I'm sure you'll be a great father."

"I hope so."

After a few minutes Asia had returned with the now contained cup. She handed it over to Mrs. May and leaned against me for support.

"I'm nervous." She stated after a few minutes passed

"It's a boy."

"We can't tell yet." She laughed

"They need some new technology in this bitch then."

"Steph lets see if I'm even pregnant first."

"There's no other reason that you could be throwing up like that."

She sighed and nodded.

I heard silent prayers escape her lips as time passed. Before we knew it Mrs. May was back in the room with what I was hoping was the results.

"Ready?"

We both nodded rapidly.

"Well Asia your not pregnant-"

"Then why was she throwing up like that?"

"Well Steph. Asia are you sure you want me to continue?"

I looked at her sad face as she nodded.

"Well Asia cannot conceive children."

"What?"

"Asia cannot have children in simpler terms."

"Then why was she throwing up?"

"Stomach flu is all. Nothing penicillin and rest can't fix. I'm really sorry Steph."

I nodded.

"Thank you Mrs. May"

She nodded and patted my shoulder as I guided Asia out. I didn't know how to feel the women I wanted a family with can't conceive.

In the Car
I stared out the window whenever the car came to a stop. I've always envisioned myself as a father with a beautiful wife but one half of my dream will never be achieved.

"I'm sorry." Asia sobbed abruptly

I looked over at her she was in pieces.

"You have nothing to be sorry about." I soothed her

"I'm broken." She cried

"No your not. Your perfect."

"No I'm not. I heard you say that you wanted this since your were 17 but you married me. I don't work I'm broken. Dysfunctional."

"Asia stop. Your not broken your perfect and yes I wanted this since I was 17 but there's adoption. We would have a child plus helping an innocent child. Killing two birds with one stone."

"You sure?"

"Yes Mrs. Curry."
