Mi Lu came out looking pale. She looked even worse than when she went in.
"Anastasia, what's wrong? What did the doctor say?" Hiram saw Mi Lu's peculiar expression and thought something was wrong.
"Hiram, I..." Mi Lu opened her mouth, suddenly unsure of what to say. What should she do? How could this happen?
The doctor actually said that she...
"Anastasia, what's going on? Don't scare me. Don't worry, we can go somewhere else for a check-up. We can go to New York, where the medical equipment is more complete than here." Hiram was almost scared to death seeing Mi Lu hesitate to speak.
"No, Hiram, it's not like that. I'm not sick, I'm just... just pregnant..." Mi Lu said those words, using up nearly all her energy.
"Preg... Pregnant?" Hiram was also incredulous; he hadn't expected Mi Lu wasn't seriously ill but was pregnant.
"Yes, I'm pregnant." Mi Lu could only confide in Hiram; she really didn't know what to do now. How did she suddenly become pregnant!
