Thinking of this, Wendy lost the mood to keep on eating the pear. She threw it directly back to the fruit dish.
She suddenly got up from the sofa and quickly walked upstairs. Aunt Lee was confused and asked, "Miss Lim, why don't you eat the pear?"
Wendy did not answer Aunt Lee. She simply went upstairs.
She went back to the bedroom and looked at the calendar to make sure that her menstruation really did not come this month. As this was confirmed, she was very shocked.
Wendy had gone through a liver transplantation operation before to donate part of her liver to Kim Gray, and she had recuperated for a long time after the stitches of operation were taken off. For this reason, Charlie had to restrain himself from making love with her for a long time. Charlie probably had forgotten this for too long; otherwise, he would have calculated her menstruation days every month.
Wendy was still not completely sure about this, and it was still embarrassing for her to recall the previous incident of misjudgment of her pregnancy.
She looked out of the window. Fortunately, it was still not too late. It was just nine o'clock now. She went into the locker room to change into the clothes for going out, and then hurried downstairs. But this time, she deliberately slowed down her paces a little
bit, for fear that she might stumble.
Aunt Lee saw that Wendy went downstairs and was wearing new clothes in a twinkling of an eye. She asked in surprise, "Miss Lim, do you want to go out so late?"
"Yes, I'll go to the pharmacy." Wendy nodded.
"What kind of medicine do you want to buy? I'll go and buy it for you!" Hearing this, Aunt Lee asked with concern.
Wendy thought that she still had not made sure whether it was pregnancy or not, and therefore she swallowed the words and made up an excuse, "My teeth hurt a little just now. I just want to buy some pain-killers. Aunt Lee, you can just stay at home. I'll ask Uncle Lee to drive me there!"
"Okay!" Aunt Lee hurriedly nodded. 20 minutes later, Wendy returned to her bedroom.
As soon as she took off her coat and threw it onto the bed, Wendy opened the bathroom door with her head lowered.
Four years ago, when she got pregnant for the first time, she did not realize it at all. Later she happened to fall into a coma due to emotional excitement. After waking up in the hospital, she was told by the doctor that she was pregnant. Now, it was the first time for her to verify whether she was pregnant with a pregnancy test stick. For her, every second, and every minute were happy and nervous moments at the same time.
A few minutes later, Wendy looked at the pregnancy test stick in her hand, holding her breath.
Two streaks of red color!
Wendy was dumbfounded for a few seconds, and then she covered her mouth in surprise. She was indeed pregnant!
Previously, she and Charlie had tried hard for so long, but there was no sign of pregnancy. Later, they gradually accepted the reality, and their attitude towards pregnancy was "let it be". She hadn't expected that pregnancy would come so suddenly. If it weren't for what Aunt Lee had mentioned about her menstruation today, she wouldn't think about it at all.
No wonder she had eaten a lot recently, and had become plumper. This strange change would not happen if ever she was not pregnant. Wendy did not know when exactly she got pregnant. However, she was clear that recently the two of them did have enjoyed making love freely...
Wendy held the pregnancy test stick in her hand and rushed out of the bathroom in excitement.
Wendy wanted to call Charlie to inform him of the news immediately, but what had happened previously concerning misjudgment of pregnancy reminded her not to act rashly this time. Finally, she put down her mobile phone and wanted to wait for the result to be confirmed in the hospital again tomorrow; otherwise, if Charlie was informed of this good news, he might become so excited that he probably would return home immediately tonight.
Early next morning, Wendy set off for the hospital.
In the doctor's office, the director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology smiled to her through her glasses after reading her test report. "Miss Lim, congratulations! You've been pregnant for five weeks now!"
"Am I really pregnant?" Wendy asked uncertainly.
