Chapter 339  Emotions

After hanging up the call, she rested her back on the backrest of the bench and gently massaged her head. It hadn't been that long and she was already feeling tired. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Mrs.Yang, are you okay?" The nurse from the doctors cabin asked.

"Yeah, I just feel a little tired."

"Let me know if it's something serious, okay?" When Ning nodded, the nurse informed, "Dr .Lee will see you in a minute."

After a few minutes, the nurse asked her to come inside the doctor's cabin.

[Inside]

Looking at her reports, Dr. Lee said, "Your hemoglobin level is very low. That could be a reason for your irregular cycle. Is there any other problem you have been facing?"

"For the past few weeks, I have been feeling very bloated and—" Putting her hand on her lower abdomen, she explained, "I feel a sharp pain here at times, more like cramps. I think it's because my period was around the corner."

 When was your last cycle?" Dr. Lee asked.

"About two months ago."

"Is that the average variation between two cycles?"

"Mostly, yes."

"Are you sexually active?"

"Yes."

"Okay. Have you taken a pregnancy test recently?" When she shook her head, Dr. Lee asked, "Why not?"

Ning did not utter a single word. The word 'Pregnancy' struck her like lightning. She never took a pregnancy test because she never thought she could be pregnant. But if she really was, that could explain her weird tiredness, cravings, bloatings and mood swings.

"Are you and your husband not ready to start a family yet?"

"No, it's nothing like that. But we haven't really discussed this," she answered. "We are just going with the flow."

"Let's take a pregnancy test first and then discuss other things," Dr. Lee said. "If you are really pregnant then you have to start taking supplements and precautions as early as possible. Though it's common for the hemoglobin level to drop during pregnancy, your case seems to be a little on the severe side. We have to be very careful because pregnancy with severe anaemia can result in premature birth."

"We will take your blood for hCG level screening. If the result is positive then we will schedule an USG for you tomorrow." Dr. Lee then gave Ning's file to the nurse and asked her to follow her.

After taking her blood sample, the nurse told Ning the result would be out by tomorrow morning. She could get a call from the hospital about the result and the USG appointment.

Sitting on the nearby corridor bench, Ning tried to take in everything that had happened. Didn't she come to the hospital for a normal check up? Instead, she got bombarded by the news of her potential pregnancy.

Placing her hand on her stomach, she started wondering if she was really pregnant. But after a few seconds, she started panicking.

She had been eating junk for the past few weeks, she had also lifted some heavy boxes when she was trying to clean the storage room. Not to forget about how frequent and rough Yichan and she had been in bed for the past couple of weeks.

What if those activities had hurt their baby? The mere thought of losing the little soul wrenched her heart.

The pregnancy was not even confirmed yet and she already felt so connected with the baby. Now the thought of her not being pregnant also scared her.

Taking a few minutes to gather her thoughts, she quickly got up and rushed towards the pharmacy on the first floor.

….

[Ladies room]

With her eyes glued at the timer she had set in her phone after taking a pregnancy test, Ning was panicking with each passing second.

She didn't know what she was anticipating. If the result was positive, she would definitely freak out. Though she was one hundred percent sure Yichan would be more delighted than her about their pregnancy, she was freaking out about welcoming and raising their child.

But on the other hand, she was scared of the disappointment that would cloud her life if it was negative. The thought of losing their baby which might not even be there also freaked her out.

With her thoughts running like a wild horse, Ning impatiently waited for five minutes which seemed like five hours.

When the timer beeped, she tossed her phone on the counter and quickly picked up the stick. Her heart was thumping wildly against her chest and her palms were sweaty. She did not remember when was the last time she had felt so nervous.

When she saw the results, she dropped the stick on the ground and threw her hands on her mouth.

IT WAS POSITIVE. She was pregnant.

Ning stood there frozen, not knowing how to react. Her eyes started welling up. The initial anxiety she was feeling was replaced with emotions she had never experienced before.

Placing her hand on her stomach, she wept. She was pregnant, it was their baby. It was Yichan and her baby. All the ups and down their relationship had been through, all of their sufferings were worth it. Their baby was worth it.

She didn't know what kind of a mother she would be but one thing she was very sure of was that Yichan would be the best father.

"Yichan—" she muttered before wiping her tears away. She then quickly grabbed her phone from the counter to call him. She couldn't wait to share the wonderful news with him. Only if he was here in person, she would have thrown herself in his arms and kissed him before telling him they were pregnant.

But before she could call him, she received a call from Roger. Assuming he had arrived outside the hospital to pick her up as planned, she answered it.

"Ning, where are you?"

The seriousness in his voice did not go unnoticed by her. "I am in the washroom. What happened? Is everything okay?"

"Which floor?"

"First floor."

"Alright, I am coming there. Don't go anywhere until I am there, okay?" he instructed.
