Cancer?

VENUS' POV

We are prepared for the doctor's appointment. Kayla never left my side. She always asks if I need something. It's thirty minutes before three.

Kayla booked an Uber. "Car's downstairs. Let's go?" Kayla reached for my hand to support me. I'm just wearing jogger pants and a hoodie because I don't have the energy to dress up.

We walked out of our room, two men wearing a black suit and an earpiece standing across our room. Same man that was there for the past three weeks. I tried to ask about it to our campus' office and they said that was just for security reasons and they don't want to give me more information so I just shrugged it off.

We are finally in the car. Hospital is only fifteen minutes away from the campus.

I am waiting for Kayla to finish filling out the form. Kayla keeps on glancing at me to check if I was okay. I don't know why hospitals always give me chills. I don't like the smell here. I don't like seeing different kinds of emotions. Some were looking sad, scared and worried.

Kayla is already walking towards me. She finished filling out the form and passed it to the nurse's station. "They will just call your name. Do you need anything?" She sat beside me and held my hand. I still feel dizzy, I want to puke. I am very uncomfortable.

It's been thirty minutes since I finally heard my name. "Venus Bailey."

Kayla stood up first to support my body while walking. We are finally in the doctor's room.

Dr. Annie smiled at us. She has a pointed nose, blonde hair and very beautiful eyes.

"Good afternoon beautiful ladies. Who's Venus Bailey here?" Dr. Annie said.

I raised my hand and smiled. "I'm Kayla, her best friend." Kayla stretched out her hand for a hand shake.

"If you could sit here please." Dr. Annie pointed to her examination bed.

I finally sat down there, Kayla was still supporting me and she stood up in the corner.

I glanced at her. I don't want her to leave me alone. I need Kayla. She smiled like she could read my mind.

"How are you feeling?" Dr. Annie moved to the side of the bed.

"I'm feeling dizzy. I always puke in the morning. I don't have much energy. Is this a sign of having cancer?" I touched my stomach as I felt like I wanted to puke again.

She smiled. "We need to do several tests to determine that. Don't worry. But when is your last period?" She pointed to the examination bed, signaling that I should lie down.

"Uhm. Last month." Fuck. Why the fuck is she asking this?! I lie down.

I'm fucking nervous. I glanced at Kayla, she was shocked and looked nervous.

"And is this late?" Dr. Annie interrupted my thoughts.

"Yes. I should have had it three weeks ago." I stuttered. Shit.

"You need to take a pregnancy test and a laboratory test, okay? This would take thirty minutes. I'll call the nurse to collect your blood and your urine for a test." She tapped my foot and stormed out of the room.

"What the fuck V! Are you pregnant?" Kayla hurriedly walked towards me as soon as Dr. Annie walked out of the room.

I want to fucking cry. I want to fucking scream. What if I'm pregnant. Elias is not here.

We were interrupted by the nurse and I finally sat down. "This is for your urine. Give it to the nurse's station once you're done. For now, I'll just collect blood samples from you." The nurse smiled. She looks like an angel.

She stretched out my arm, she tied it up with rubber so she could see my vein. I closed my eyes, Kayla was beside me holding my left hand. I squeezed her hand when I felt the needle.

"It's done. Thank you. You may wait in the waiting area. We will call your name if we already have the result. And the urine, do not forget. Thank you again." The nurse smiled and stormed out of the room.

Kayla held my hand as we walked out of the door. "Let me just go to the comfort room."

I sat down on one of the toilets, I covered my face with my hand. I am fucking crying. I am crying my heart out. What will happen if I'm fucking pregnant? I'm fucking stupid. Where the fuck are you Elias.

"V! Are you done? Come out now." Kayla shouted. I wiped the tears from my face.

Kayla immediately hugged me when she saw me. "We don't know yet, okay? Do not overthink. We will get through this." I cried on her shoulders. I don't fucking know what to do.

"I will tell you everything when we go back to our dorm." She wiped my tears from my face and hugged me again.

She reached out for my hand and we walked out of the bathroom hand in hand.

Kayla offered to give the urine sample to the nurse's station and told me to just rest in the waiting area.

**

Thirty minutes felt like fucking thirty days. I want to know the result.

"Venus Bailey." Kayla and I were startled. She squeezed my hand like she was comforting me.

We went back to Dr. Annie's office. "Sit down Ms. Bailey." Dr. Annie is holding a white folder.

"It looks like you are three weeks pregnant." She said while looking at the folder.

I cannot breathe. I cannot fucking breathe. I feel like someone is choking me. Kayla squeezed both of my hands. I am stunned, breathless. I don't know what to feel anymore.

"Is there any necessary test that she needs to take?" Kayla finally asked. She knows that no words are coming out from my mouth right now. I am trying to talk, but I can't.

"Not for now, but I'll recommend you to a gynecologist to confirm if it's three weeks and for an ultrasound as well." Dr. Annie handed a white calling card to Kayla.

"Thank you." Kayla smiled at Dr. Annie.

I cannot move. I cannot talk. I cannot breathe.

I don't know what the fuck should I fucking do!

"I can schedule you to see a gynecologist tomorrow, okay? They will call you for the time." Dr. Annie stood up and I saw Kayla stood up as well.

Kayla reached out for my arm to help me stand up and walk. I looked at Kayla in her blue eyes. I still cannot fucking talk.

We are finally out of the room. I'm still not talking. I am fucking stunned.

Kayla looked so fucking worried, she is typing something on her phone.

"Uber is here." She is still holding my hand.

It was a very silent trip going back to the dorm. I hold back from crying.

When we finally reach our dorm room, the two men in a black suit and an earpiece are still standing there.

Both of them looked at me eye to eye, they looked shocked. Maybe they were shocked because my eyes were very swollen from crying.

I immediately sat down on the edge of my bed.

I covered my face with my two hands and I cried my fucking heart out.

I cried and cried and cried. Kayla hurriedly sat beside me and hugged me.

"Tell me when you're ready, V. I won't ask any questions. I'll just wait for you to tell me."

Kayla hugged me tight and I hugged her back.

I don't know how to start.. I took a deep breath. Kayla switched seats, she sat down on the edge of her bed so that she would be across from me.

She is looking at me eye to eye. She placed both of her hands on her knees.

"I'm now ready. I want to let this all out." I exhaled.

"Are you sure?"

"I met someone here. His name is Elias. We had sex, but it was for one time only. I didn't think I could get pregnant by doing it one time." I'm scratching my forehead as I feel dizzy again.

"Wait, Elias? Liam's roommate is Elias." Kayla looked shocked.

"I don't know Elias' roommate, maybe they have the same name." I shrugged. That makes sense now, that's why Liam is the one who gave me that letter. Liam knows where Elias is.

"Do you know his room number?" Kayla asked like she was investigating.

"No." I looked at both of my feet. I fucking feel stupid. Elias and I don't know each other yet.

"And where is Elias now? He needs to know this." I looked at Kayla, she was frowning and looking so confused.

"Kayla, I'm sorry if I didn't tell you this. I'm the one who put the letter on your bedside table. I saw Liam when I went for a walk last time. He handed me that letter, Elias gave me a letter too. He told me that we would meet again after two years." I saw Kayla inhaled and let out a big sigh.

"Why didn't you tell me this? I will fucking kill both of them." She is now covering her face with her hands.

"I'm really sorry Kayla. I was not ready to talk about Elias at that time as I am confused with my feelings for him." I cried again. Why am I so fucking emotional.

Kayla did not answer. She still looked shocked.

"I don't fucking know what I should do. This is not what I planned. I planned to get a decent job and help my mom. What should I fucking tell her." Kayla knelt down in front of me to hug me. I cried again on her shoulder.

"Don't worry, okay? We'll get through everything. I will help you raise that child if that Elias didn't fucking help you. Let's just finish our graduation, it will be three weeks from now. Let's look for a job immediately and find a place to stay. I will live with you so I can help you. I will fucking give up my life for that child. I will fucking help you get through this." I cried when I heard what Kayla said. I am very touched. I don't want her to be affected. I want her to enjoy her life and live the life that she wants.

"No Kayla. I want you to do what you want. Don't even think about giving up your old life for this. I want you to enjoy your life, okay?" I hugged Kayla so tight and she cried too.

"We'll get through this. Don't worry." She stood up.

"Let's fucking finish this drama, this is not good for the baby." She smiled.

I felt relieved. I will finish the graduation first and I will sort everything out.

I am very thankful Kayla is with me. If she's not here, I don't know what will happen to me.
