Heart

Chapter 9 Forgive Me

November:

We were at Rachel's lake house for the weekend. It was only me, my husband, and my sister's family of three. Baby Raphy was all grown up now walking around, so sweet, having the time of his life.

We were having breakfast when I suddenly felt nauseous. The moment I smelled eggs on the table I was about to throw up. I couldn't resist myself. I ran fast to the bathroom covering my mouth with my left hand. They were all surprised. They stood up and asked if something was wrong but I said I was okay.

My hero followed me to the bathroom a few minutes later. He stood right next to the door and heard me burp and throw up. He tried to help but I said it is okay and there is nothing he can do about it.

Few minutes later I went out the bathroom and was feeling a lot better.

"We should go to the doctor", he said.

"No need baby. I am okay", I replied.

"Are you sure. You don't look alright, you're pale", he added as he helped me get in bed.

"I am okay I swear. I'm just a bit tired that's all. I guess it's because of the AC. It was on all night and I didn't want to turn it off because it was too hot inside"

"I know but I still think we should go to the doctor. You're sick."

"I am fine. I swear. I will rest for a while then everything is going to be okay"

"I will have them make you some tea then"

"That would be good yes. Thank you"

He hurried to Rachel asking her to make me some tea and a small sandwich to make up for what I threw up. They all came back to check up on me and they said we should get back home so I can have good rest.

"I'm sorry I ruined the trip guys", I said.

"It's okay dear. We can always have more of this. What is important now is that you get better. Everything else is just details", said Chris.

"Thank you Chris" I said.

We went back home. I rested for a few days until I was feeling better and as soon as I could do that I went back to work. I had called my doctor and asked for an appointment. She called me when I was at the office. I had a meeting with Gibson and the crew. We were preparing for Friday's episode deciding on the guest and so.

I had to leave the office right away because she has so many appointments and she had made an exception for me the moment I told her about what happened. I asked Gibson for a day off and he agreed immediately. He was sweet enough to give me a day off whenever I needed it. He asked if something was wrong but I said it was all okay.

I went into the clinic and the first thing my doctor said was:

"Did you do your pregnancy test yet?"

"What? Uh no I didn't. Why?"

"Because what you told me on the phone means..."

"What?!"

"You're pregnant dear."

"Are you serious? I mean, are you sure?"

"Let's check but I am pretty sure you are"

She led me to the test room and I had the pregnancy test. She also did the echo test to be even more certain and right after she saw the tiny, tiny dot inside my ovary she asked:

"Are you ready to be a mom girl?"

"Oh my god. Are you serious?"

"Pretty serious. You're pregnant. Congratulations."
