Katherine's Pov I woke up to a loud beeping sound and a bright light that made me feel like I was dead but then the pain in my arm says otherwise. I opened up my eyes slowly and realized that I was in a hospital of sorts. I hate hospitals after my parents's accident so I try to avoid them as much as possible. My aunt was sleeping next to me, I could see her eyes are puffy which means she was crying. Tears started rolling down my face because I hate to be a reason for anyone to cry especially my aunt. She's been through so much already that I only wish happiness for her. She woke up to me snorting and started to laugh. "Hey sweetie" she said with the biggest grin I've ever seen on her "Morning gorgeous" I replied to her which she chuckled to. "Sweetie , I know you're hurting right now but I need you to calm down because it's not good for your situation" she said. " What situation" I asked She smiled and said "You are pregnant sweetie" I almost forgot that I had to breathe for a second. pregnant? I know I've been intimate with him but we've always used protection and I'm on the pill and it's not like I was virgin or anything plus it is the modern century for god's sake .The point is we've been very careful because we're still young and I don't think he's ready to be a father while he's still a child himself. I looked at her like she grew two heads. She fetched my doctor whom also happens to be Mark's cousin. She and I never really got along at first because she thought that I was just like those girls whom mark dates but our relationship improved in the last several years and although we aren't really friends Nellie was always nice to me after we got to know one another. I also know that she had reservations about me because she had a huge crush on my ex boyfriend james. I don't know what happened between the two because they stopped talking to each other recently after we graduation. Nellie also had a huge grin on her face which was starting to annoy me more. "Yes it's true, you're pregnant and I'm going to be an aunty babe. You fainted in your bedroom so your handsome cousin brought you here. You fainted because of dehydration and your overwhelming emotions. I did a blood test and it showed that you are pregnant." Nellie said. "Are you sure?" I asked her. She smirked and nodded her head. Lissy her nurse brought out the ultrasound machine and asked for me to remove my hospital shirt and push it up so she could put a gel. I did as I was told. She warned me that it will be a little cold which it was and placed the scanner and after a few minutes a strong heartbeat was heard. It took my breath away and I knew then at that moment that I'll protect it with my life and everything I've got. I started crying because it was very beautiful and everyone was also trying hard to hold back their tears. " you're 10 weeks pregnant and about to enter your 2nd trimester" Nellie said. Am I really pregnant? I just couldn't believe it and it was the most beautiful news I've ever received. I've always wanted to be a mom and find love. The thought of a little tiny human calling you mom and depending on you for everything, I could imagine him or her brightining my whole life because of their existence. It is the most fulfilling journey a woman could have despite the pain that comes with it. But all will be worth it when you get to hold the life you've brought into this world after months of agony as my aunt once told me. I left it to fate whether i have kids or not and i will be happy regardless. Having kids doesn't define women, it is just the icing on the cake and part of life. I genuinely love kids. I was always an only child and dreamed of having someone to play with so I made a promise that I would have at least two or four kids just so they don't fell lonely growing up. Although unplanned, this baby would be wanted and showered with love and care it deserves. Love? what was I thinking falling in love with the biggest player in the entire country M and believing that he could change because he loved me and I loved him. I am a bit naive when it comes to relationships and I thought that I had learned my lesson with my first boyfriend but I guess I have bad taste in men or maybe it wasn't meant to by fate or destined to be. I started to remember what happened before I fainted and I started crying. My heart is in a million pieces at this moment and I know that nothing will that. He cheated and that is a fact. I did hear rumors before about him going around but my stupid self decided to believe in him and not judge based on his past. Everyone has a past. I just can't believe that it is true. I'm pregnant with Mark's child. How? I asked Nellie because we had always been carefully all the time. I wasn't ready to be a mom and Mark has reservation about kids. " Well it happens babe, mistakes happen no matter how or which brand you use. The pills work but you have to take them regularly on time and forgetting to take one could be dire." she said "I see , can I be discharged? I don't like hospitals." I asked. Hospitals and me don't mix. "I'll get the discharge papers ready since everything is okay. Don't forget to eat and drink lots of water and call me if you need anything. Take it easy , I know you must be stressed but it's not good for the baby." Nellie said and kissed my head. "alright" I replied since I was currently in a dilemma. 'I'M going to be a mom ' was constantly replaying in my mind. I signed the discharge papers and went home with aunt and found Tony waiting for me with a giant teddy bear. After talking with Tony and aunt , I went to sleep in my room which apparently has a new door.
