Making It Right

Shaken Up

A/N: It's hard to suffer with a writer's block...different ideas came to mind as to what should happen next but nothing seems to fit the story.

I apologise if it took a while for me to post another chapter, but here it goes...

=================================

There were muffled voices when I came to my senses. I opened my eyes and looked around. It seems like I am in a hospital suite. I should know as I work in one.

"Oh good, you're awake! You scared the living daylights out of us." said a familiar voice to my right.

"What happened? Why am I here?" I asked.

"Well, you fainted after your mom introduced me as your future husband. Was it that despicable?" Forth asked in a hurt tone.

"Wha...no! I..." I stammered, confused as well. "I mean, I was shocked maybe. But it..." I started but then the door opened and in came our parents,  followed by a doctor.

"Oh baby, you scared me. Don't pull that stunt on us again young man" my mother admonished me. As if I had a choice, I fainted for God's sake.

To my mortification, the doctor chuckled. "Well, I believe that congratulations are in order" he said.

"Thank you my friend, but we would like to know what happened to Baramee" my father said.

"By the way, this is my friend, Dr. Ram Ithipat." he introduced the doctor to us.

"This is my son, Baramee" he gestured towards me. "My soon-to-be son-in-law, Engineer Jaturapoom Jamornhum" he pointed at Forth who gave his respect. Then pointed towards the adults, "This is Baramee's mother, Sirikit Jarujitranon. Those are Jaturapoom's parents, Prija and Aroon Jamornhum"

"Oh Tanet, you should stop teasing your son by calling him Baramee. You know how he loathes that name." my mother said as she saw me scowling everytime Dad calls me that.

"But it is his name" my father replied with a shake of his head.

"The reason why he's here is why I congratulated you earlier." Dr. Ithipat said and was confused with our dumbfounded expression.

"What do you mean Ram?" my father asked.

"Well, your son is pregnant. Three months to be exact" he stated.

You've got to be fucking kidding me right?

=================================

After the doctor elaborated the situation to my parents and the others, he left the room. I am now left with five people gawking at me and with awkward silence.

"You have got some explaining to do here baby" my mother said exasperatedly as she placed one of her hands on her forehead and the other on her hips. "You should have told us that you were already seeing someone and we could have avoided this fiasco!" she hissed.

I cannot answer nor even look at them. What do I tell them, that I had a one night stand with my soon-to-be-husband and resulted to this? Hell I cannot even begin to fathom what they are thinking about me now and to my chagrin, the said man looked directly into my mother's eyes and spoke.

"I'm sorry ma'm. We should have told you that we have been dating before this. It would have been better if you have informed him of my identity beforehand" Forth said as he held my hand.

"What do you mean? Explain." my father said in a stern voice.

"We met three months ago in Milan and ever since we've seen each other once in a while. And you know how Beam hates publicity so we have been discrete about this."
