NINI'S POV
scared, terrified, nervous. these were the emotions filling up my body as i lie down in the cold sheets of the hospital bed. ricky comes inside with a phone held up to his ear. "ok, we'll see you.""hi baby." ricky walks up to me and kisses my forehead. "how are you feeling?"
"my stomach feels a bit ok i guess, but i'm scared ricky. i don't want to lose our baby." i cry out and ricky hugs me.
"hey, don't worry. you're fine, we'll be fine alright?" he tells me and i nod "did you call my moms?"
"yes." ricky said, sliding his fingers in my hair. "i just got off the phone with them, they're coming in tomorrow morning, together with my parents."
we were interrupted when dr masterson entered the room, a pile of papers in her hand. "hi nina, how are you feeling?"
"ok i guess. my stomach still hurts but not that much as before coming in here." i respond and she nods.
"ok ricky, nina, please listen to me." dr masterson starts and my heart beats faster than usual. ricky starts to hold my hand to help me calm down. "so based on the tests, i'm sorry to say this but your pregnancy will no longer progress."
my heart stopped. it was so hard to comprehend those words. "w-what?"
"you have experienced a common case of first trimester miscarriage. that's why you've been experiencing pain or bleeding." she said and i start to sob in ricky's chest.
"but." i start to stutter. "i'm perfectly healthy. i've been taking the vitamins and taking precautions."
dr masterson replies, "most cases of miscarriage usually happen due to chromosomal abnormality. it may be hereditary." and i tear up even more.
"don't worry nina, nothing is damaged, you're perfectly fine. you still have a chance to get pregnant again." she said. "but we would need to do a procedure to take out the embryo immediately. i will schedule one for tomorrow."
"ok doc, thank you." ricky said in a shaky tone, dr masterson pats my back. "i'll leave you two to talk."
as dr masterson leaves, i cry even more in ricky's chest, he rubs my back slowly and presses a kiss to my hair, "everything will be ok nins. don't worry, i'll be here for you. no matter what."
"i'm sorry, ricky. i-i lost o-our b-baby." i cry out in sadness and looks up to me to wipe my tears, "woah hey don't say that. it wasn't your fault. you handled your pregnancy very well. things like these may happen but i know that we'll get through it. i know we can. i love you nini. i don't plan on leaving, ever."
i look up to him and give a sad smile, "i love you too. thank you."
