The Wrong Woman

After returning from her journey across the globe, Imogen headed straight to the hospital.

During her travels, she started noticing subtle changes in her body-nausea, fatigue, and a stronger need for rest. Her hunch was confirmed when tests revealed she was pregnant.

She felt a blend of anticipation and apprehension. The idea of being pregnant raised thoughts of focusing on family life and raising children. Yet, she valued her career and was steadily demonstrating her skills. She wasn't ready to give it up just yet.

When Imogen arrived home and stepped through the front door, she found Gregory and Carol were there. They had just returned from their trip as well, bringing back gifts.

"Hi, Mom, Dad," Imogen greeted them.

Still excited about their travels, Gregory and Carol eagerly recounted their adventures to Jasper.

When Jasper heard Imogen's voice, he quickly stood and walked over to her, taking her hand. "Imogen, I woke up early and didn't see you around. Where did you go?" Imogen offered a gentle smile. "I went for a walk."

"Mom and Dad brought over quite a few things," Jasper remarked, leading Imogen to sit on the couch.
