Men Can't Get Pregnant

Sick and Tired and Hormonal: Rome and Pick

Rome felt excited at the email he just received. He was picked out of one hundred and fifty people to go to Africa for two weeks to take pictures for a major company. He was given a list of things he needed for the trip and one of the things was get his shots so he didn't get any diseases. He immediately called the doctor's office and set up an appointment in a half an hour. It would taken him only twenty minutes to get there so it was a perfect time.

He grabbed some chips out of the bag as he drove to the doctor's office. Over the past week his appetite had grown he had no clue why since he had been eating his breakfast, lunch and dinner. Pick has teased him a bit the first time but stopped when it turned into a huge fight where Rome yelled at him for calling him fat then locked himself in their room till he calmed down. Pick apologized and hasn't done it since.

Rome pulled into the parking lot and as he got out of the car his stomach began to feel weird. He ignored it as he walked towards the entrance of the doctor's office. As he entered he felt even worse like he was going to throw up. He saw a trash can by the front desk and all but dove for it, throwing up all his lunch. When he was done he lifted his head to see a woman kneeling in front of him holding out a tissues. He thanked her before taking it and wiping his mouth. It wasn't even a minute later that his head went back into the trash can and he was throwing up breakfast.

This happend one more time before he felt better. He then pushed himself up off the floor feeling tired as he dragged himself to the bathroom to rinse out his mouth. He looked at himself in the mirror when he was done, pleading internally that he wasn't sick and that he could still go to Africa. He left the bathroom feeling better but tired. He apologized to the cleaning lady who was changing the trash bag he had puked his guts into. She just smiled and waved him off.

"Sawatdee-krap" he said as he waied to the woman behind the front desk.

"Sawatdee-kah Rome, are you feeling better?"

"Yeah, just tired now" Rome was curious why the receptionist made a funny look.

"The doctor will see you now" A nurse said from the entrance that lead into the back. Rome said goodbye to the receptionist before following the nurse into the back. He was lead into a room where he waited on the check up table for the doctor. A few minutes later the the same nurse that lead him in walked in.

"Sawatdee-krap" Rome wai which the nurse returned.

"Sawatdee-kah Rome, we are going to be doing a test to confirm something which will determine if you get the shots you need to go to Africa."

"Okay" Rome said a little nervous. The nurse drew his blood before quickly leaving. What test were they running that could possibly ruin his chance at going to Africa? He found out a few minutes later when the nurse came in.

"Rome, we can't give you the shots because the test was positive, you are pregnant."

"Men can't have babies"

"True but hermaphrodite can"

"Are you saying I'm a hermaphrodite?"

"Correct, you are five weeks pregnant, congratulations."

"Wait a minute, I don't understand..." Rome said in utter shock.

"Lime, the receptionist said you were throwing up and you were tired which are signs of pregnancy, so she thought you might be a hermaphrodite." She said.

"But...but.."

"Rome, you have a decision to make" she said making Rome look up from the ground. "You can keep this baby, you can give it up for adoption or you can abort it." Rome had a huge decision to make.
