I sat on one of the seats in the waiting room, waiting for my test results. A confirmation test was carried out on me nearly an hour ago on my insistence, even though the doctor assured me that the results were totally accurate.

I stopped thinking once I realized where my thoughts were driving at. There was no way Leonard could be this caring, I won't be fooled, not even by his disrespectful proposal. Besides, my mind is made up, and if the confirmation test is still positive, I will have the pregnancy aborted.
A sudden gurgle in my stomach reminded me that I had nothing in there, all thanks to the nauseous feeling I had in the office which led me to empty every last food I had eaten during breakfast and lunch.
