Chapter Thirty Eight

“I....”

“Are you pregnant?” What? Her face looks so cute even though she was shocked.

“What? No..no.. no.. never.” She nodded and we both fell silent. Now we’re waiting for Ronald. Fifteen minutes later Ronald came.

“Jess, why didn’t you inform me before?” He takes her hands from mine and again I’m empty.

“It’s okay.”

“Come let’s go inside.” We stand but I turn in another direction.

“You’re not coming with us?” My foot stopped in a hurry. I want to but I can’t. Ronald never allowed me.

“Umm... I’m not your family and now Ronald is here too.” This breaks her heart and the feelings run on her face.

“Come.” This time Ronald called me.

“But.”

“Come.” How can I let it go? Nodding, I followed them inside. Inside I know what’s feeling running not only Jessie but also Ronald and my heart. This is the moment when we can hear our future first beat. We’re waiting for her or his first sound.
