Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 126

When I got to the hospital, I was taken for a gynecological check–up while Neil waited outside.

I gave the doctor a brief rundown of my situation, followed by a series of tests. The results didn’t seem optimistic The doc suggested I stay in the hospital for a bit, which seriously bummed me out. I felt like a deflated balloon.

“The man outside, is he your husband? Should we fill him in on your situation? You’ll need someone to take care of you, the doctor asked.

“No, he’s just a friend. If I need his help, I’ll let him know Thanks.” I replied wearily

After I was transferred to the ward, Neil came to my bedside and asked. “What’s up? The doc wouldn’t tell me anything.”

I requested the doctor to keep it confidential, so she wouldn’t inform Neil Patient privacy was respected in such cases.

Looking at Neil’s worried face, I knew he genuinely cared for me. He had left Bonnie behind to rush me to the hospital. This wasn’t some figment of my imagination. I was debating whether I should tell him the truth, give him a chance to decide.

If I could successfully deliver the baby, I wouldn’t shoo him away from visiting.
