The Unexpected Baby

Avery followed the doctor with her eyes till he left the room, after she could no longer see him, she took the test results that the doctor had left beside her, looking into it she saw that she was 99.9 percent pregnant.

Then it dawned upon her that she was really pregnant and due to her belief that aborting is killing, abortion was not an option...

"You are not aborting my child" Jamal said with a voice of authority.

"And what makes you think that this is your child" she retorted already getting angry with him for thinking she would do such a thing.

"Well.. I know that I was the one that disv.i.r.g.i.ned you and besides I'm not dumb, the doctor said it was a month ago which is exactly the time we copulated... And with what your friend said about how much you work, I know that you didn't have time to meet other guys" he responded looking at her tummy.

Before she could say anything else, Belle suddenly came in screaming at the top of her voice.

"You are having a baby" she finally said after shouting, then she started doing her happy dance while chanting,

'Avery is having a babyyyy'...

Then she turned to look at Jamal only to see that his gaze was on her especially her tummy... It seemed weird to her cos she didn't think any guy would be attracted to her but then a thought stopped her line of thinking and at that point she knew it wasn't because of her, it was because of the baby she was carrying that was his....

After staying two days at hospital which was really unnecessary she finally was allowed to home... Due to Jamal request, more like demand she stayed in the hospital for an extra two days cos Jamal demanded that she was thoroughly tested and would not want his child to be infected, she had rolled her eyes when she had heard him say that.

The two extra days she stayed was also because some of the tests need more than a day to be processed. And particularly and most importantly because Jamal and Belle had connived and wanted her to "rest" cos as Belle quoted: "As soon as she gets home she'd pile up all the work and stress herself,thereby hurting the baby and herself".

After Jamal heard this he insisted on her staying in the hospital longer to rest.

When she had asked about what would happen to her job, Jamal said that the boss gave her a leave for as long as she wanted and that she should take care of herself.
