"Why are you so downcast?" Hope Williams tilted her head, glancing at Aria Richardson, who was bowing her head and touching her belly.
"I’m a bit worried..."
"Worried about what?"
"Worried about everything."
What if I’m pregnant?
What if I’m not pregnant?
What if I’ve got a terminal illness?
Hope laughed, knowing she was overthinking, "We’re almost there, cheer up. Maybe there’s a baby in your belly, be happy."
"Really?"
Hope nodded, "Really."
Aria felt an inexplicable sourness in her nose, pursing her lips and nodding.
The car arrived at the hospital.
The doctor examining Aria looked quite experienced.
With Hope’s reassurance, Aria gradually cald down, but her heart was still on edge when she went in for the examination.
She was tense and apprehensive.
She was afraid of hoping too much for a child, only to have it end the sa way as last ti.
After the examination, Hope accompanied Aria as they sat outside waiting for the results, with Aria fidgeting in her seat.
Hope looked at the expression on Aria’s face and smiled gently.
She could understand Aria’s current feelings.
When she was pregnant with Luke and Willow, she felt the sa way, expectant and anxious as she awaited the results.
Afraid that she wasn’t really pregnant and would be disappointed.
Hope gently put her arm around Aria’s shoulder and patted her gently, "Just sit and relax, it should be out soon."
Aria nodded and looked at her watch.
She had just checked two minutes ago.
Hope, "..."
Waiting for the results was indeed the most tornting part.
The doctor finally ca out after what seed like forever.
Both of them imdiately looked up at the doctor.
This ti, Aria ca with a completely different mindset than last ti; last ti she knew there was no possibility, so she had no expectations, but this ti she was full of hope.
Seeing her reaction, the doctor, who was clearly used to it, smiled lightly, "Congratulations, the fetus is already three weeks old. You’ll need to go for an ultrasound later."
Three weeks...
Aria was so nervous her mind went blank.
She’s pregnant, really pregnant.
Hope’s face imdiately lit up with a smile, hugging the still-dazed Aria in surprise, "Aria, congratulations, you’ve got a baby."
Aria blinked in astonishnt, slowly asking, "I really... am?"
"Yes, congratulations Aria."
Realizing it, Aria imdiately hugged Hope tightly, "Ah, I’ve really got a baby, I’m not terminally ill, that’s great, it scared to death."
Hearing Aria, Hope couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Part of the reason for this person’s earlier nervousness was thinking her constant nausea and vomiting ant she had a terminal illness.
Hope’s eyes were full of laughter, and for a mont she didn’t quite know what to say.
Aria more carefully touched her belly than before, with an urge to cry.
She and Wyatt really have a baby.
It’s truly wonderful.
Unsure of how happy Wyatt Lewis will be knowing this.
Since they brought it up last ti, Wyatt had been ntioning it every night.
Evidently, he too was eagerly anticipating this baby.
The smile on Aria’s face gradually beca more gentle.
Aria went in for the ultrasound.
Hope was thinking of accompanying her when her phone rang; it was Lucy Parker, "Aunt Parker."
"Hey, Little Hope, is Zoey there with you?"
Hope was puzzled, "No, didn’t she go back to A City with you a few days ago?"
On the other end, Lucy was ranting and raving, "That girl has gone off sowhere again, always running around aimlessly. When I ask Joseph, he also knows nothing. I just can’t manage the two of them anymore."
Hope’s brow furrowed slightly, suddenly realizing.
She knew where Zoey Sanders had gone.
She must have gone to Y Country on her own.
Hope had ntioned it to Joseph Sanders at the ti, asking him to keep an eye on Zoey, as she was still young.
But if Joseph claid ignorance in front of Father Sanders and Matriarch Sanders, he must be intentionally covering for her.
Hope thought for a mont and said, "Aunt Parker, I might know where she’s gone. Don’t worry too much, she won’t be in any danger."
Hearing Hope’s words, Lucy Parker could probably guess that her daughter was hiding sothing from her again.
"Children grow up to not follow their parents," she sighed, deciding not to press further.
