While waiting for her results, Dorothy made a call to her mom.
She had sent her a message earlier that went unanswered.
And this call, too, went unanswered.
A feeling of unease started to creep into Dorothy's heart, but she wasn't overly worried.
After all, it was the weekend, and her mom was supposed to be doing rehab, so not having her cell phone on her was totally normal.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce Dorothy finished her tests, she figured she'd go to the ward to check on her mom.
"Dorothy, please proceed to examination room 3." Upon hearing this, she quickly pocketed her phone and headed in that direction.
It was the same doctor. He was looking over the urine and blood test results she had handed in with a frown creasing his forehead.
"Good thing you came in for a check-up. You're pregnant.” Huh? Dorothy was speechless.
When the words "you're pregnant” came out of the doctor's mouth, Dorothy's mind went completely blank.
"According to your blood test, the baby seems to be developing normally." The doctor, not looking up from her medical record, continued, "Do you want it?" Before he could get a response, he noticed the stunned look on Dorothy's face.
Perhaps he was used to seeing all kinds of patients, so he calmly repeated, "Do you want this baby? Or maybe you should discuss it with your partner first." Dorothy finally snapped back to reality. Inexplicably, her lips had become bone dry. "Am I... am | really pregnant?" "Based on your HCG levels, you're probably six or seven weeks along. Didn't you notice that your period was late?" "| thought it was just stress from work." "You're definitely pregnant. You can get an ultrasound later to confirm. If the embryo is developing quickly, you might even detect a heartbeat.” The doctor looked up at her. "Do you want to continue with the tests? Or maybe you should discuss it further with your partner." "| think I'll discuss it first." Dorothy was somewhat at a loss.
After all, if she was really pregnant, this wasn't something she could decide on her own.
"Okay." The doctor closed her medical record and handed it to her. "Whether you decide to keep it or not, it's better to decide quickly. If you miss the early screening, things might become problematic.” Dorothy nodded. "Thank you, doctor." "You're very pretty. I'm sure your baby will definitely be beautiful too." Unexpectedly, the doctor, who had been rather stern, added this comment as she was leaving.
With the results in hand, Dorothy found a bench to sit on. Her mind became a jumbled mess as she tried to sort out her thoughts.
She was actually pregnant! This news was so unexpected. It was totally out of the blue.
Dorothy wasn't scared of anything. She just knew that her mom would definitely oppose her decision to keep the baby. This all seemed like some kind of joke; her current situation was eerily similar to Bella's predicament.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis would certainly trigger her mother's fears.
She must have sat there for a good ten minutes before she managed to calm down. She was about to pull out her phone to talk to Everett when she saw several missed calls from her mom's doctor.
Dorothy immediately called back as her heart jumped into her throat.
"Why weren't you answering your phone?! Your mom is in the emergency room again. Come quick!" Before Dorothy could even check if she had hung up, she was already sprinting towards the ward.
Sure enough, the red light in front of the emergency room was lit up again.
"Doctor, wasn't my mom's condition stable? Her last surgery was successful!" "It's her heart disease. She had another shock." The doctor handed her a critical condition notice.
"Sign this first; we'll do our best to save her."
