A startling cold gel is placed directly on my opened stomach, sending wet sensation across my skin.
I watched to doctor placed a mouse like device on the wet gel before moving it slowly. My eyes darted to the small monitor beside the bed.
My eyes made out a small, very easy to miss, dot in the corner of what looks like an oval shape. A small but steady heartbeat echoed in the small room and in that moment, my heart stopped.
There…there really is a life growing inside of me.
My eyes welled up in tears, feelings that I couldn't name rushing through my heart. My baby….that little life in there is my baby.
" Is it…is it fine?". My voice sounded hoarse and shaken but I couldn't find any bit of me caring.
" They". A warm smile graced her lips as she turned to me " They are fine".
My mouth opened but no sound came out. They….what did she mean by they…
" What do you mean by they?" Darius asked the question lurking in my mind " I can only hear one heartbeat".
