CH 88 ~ Baby's Gender

In the hospital~

As Alex was unable to join her for today's check up; Rennie was waiting alone for , a nervous wreck even though she knew that the odds of anything going wrong were slim.

She was kind of sad that he couldn't come, she has become used to have him during her all the checkups.

Rennie fidgeted, flipped through magazines, chatted with other women in various stages of pregnancy but through it all she just wished that Alex was there with her.

The other women were all accompanied by their partners or friends and Rennie had never felt so achingly alone before.

She was so deeply buried in her thoughts that she didn't even notice the person sitting down next to her until his deep voice rumbled in her ear.

"Why is your cell phone off? I've been trying to reach you all morning," 

Rennie jumped in fright before blinking up at Alex stupidly, not quite sure how he came to be there.
