Chapter 3: She's What?

Fiona's POV:

(About a few weeks later):

"Fifi, I'm home!" I just came from work and when I called Fifi, she didn't come. She always comes excitedly, and licked me on the face.

"Fifi where are you?" I walked to the kitchen and I see her food bowl, still full and never touched. That's strange, because she always finishes her food and licks the bowl clean.

Then I heard groaning noises coming from her room. I went there and saw Fifi, lying on her small cozy bed, it looks like she's been lying down all day and she doesn't look too good.

"Hey girl what's wrong? Are you sick?" I rubbed her back and looked concerned. All she did was groan.

Then she got up and ran towards the door, "Fifi where are you doing?" I followed her and she ran inside the bathroom.

I went inside the bathroom and Fifi stick her head on the toilet bowl and began to vomit. I kneeled down next to her and rubbed her back as she kept vomiting.

When she's done, I flushed the toilet and grabbed a tissue and gently wiped some vomit on her mouth. "You feel better Fifi?" I continued rubbing her as she barked with excitement.

I smiled, "Okay girl, let's go." As we walked out of the bathroom, Fifi felt like she losing energy on walking, "Are you okay girl?"

She just walked slowly to me, she felt dizzy, and then something that shocked me happened. She just collapsed on the floor, right in front me.

"FIFI!" I kneeled down and felt her pulse, she was still breathing. I tried to wake her up, but she didn't. So, I called Dr. Chris, Fifi's vet, "Hello, Dr. Chris, I want to schedule an emergency appointment for Fifi..we'll be on our way..okay, thank you, bye."

I hung up and carried Fifi out of loft and into the car and drive her to the vet.

I was waiting outside the clinic, while Dr. Chris examines Fifi. I just hope she's alright. When Dr. Chris came out, quickly walk towards him, "How is she Doc?"

"Well she's awake, and okay." Dr. Chris smiled

"Okay? But she's been vomiting lately, feeling sick, tired out, and dizzy. Something's really wrong with her." I explained.

Dr. Chris hold my shoulders, "Fiona, relax these symptoms are normal for dogs with her condition."

I was entirely confused with what Dr. Chris said, "Doc, what you mean by her 'condition'?"

"You don't know about her condition? Fiona, Fifi's two weeks pregnant!"

My mouth just dropped open with shocked, "She's what?!" I just wanted to know if I heard it right.

"She's PREG-NANT." Dr. Chris said it loud, slowly, and emphasizing the word pregnant.

I just don't know how I feel right now. I never had my own kid yet, and I'm already going to be a grandmother?! I was in denial for a little while.

"Doc, how could this happen?"

"Well, did Fifi meet another dog and..well..were too 'friendly' with each other or something?"

I think long and hard, then I figured it out, "Oh no, Volta!" I put my hand on my face.

"Are you okay Fiona?" Dr. Chris asked

"Yeah Doc I'm fine, is it now safe to take Fifi home?"

"Yes, you can take her home, but I would recommend you to bring her to the clinic once a week to check how she's doing during her pregnancy and do some ultra sounds."

"Okay, thank you Doc." I carried Fifi out of the clinic and head back to the loft.

Finally, we were back in the loft and I put Fifi to sleep. I decided to go to my laptop and video chat with my Mom about the news.

"Hi sweetie!" my mom waved

"Hi Mom!" I waved back

Just then my Dad popped up behind Mom, "Hi Princess!"

"Dad!? What are you doing there? I thought you had a business trip?" I was really surprised.

"Well I decided to take a vacation and spend quality time with your Mother." He explained.

"Oh, well I wish I was there with you guys, I miss you guys a lot." I said

"Well we miss you too Fifi-I mean Fiona." Haha, oh Mom, I see it's still a habit that she's still calling me Fifi, I couldn't blame her.

Then I heard Declan's voice off the screen, "Hey Mom, Dad are you video chatting with Fiona?"

Declan's face appeared in the screen along with his newly wife and my best friend, Holly J.

"Hey Fi, I really miss you." Declan waved

"Hey Decs, I miss you too!" I waved back

"How's Toronto doing for you?" Holly J. asked

"Doing good and my job is pretty amazing!" I said with excitement.

I was so caught up with excitement that I almost forgot the real reason why I wanted to chat. Since everyone's there I guess it's the right time to tell them the news. Oh, Great! Just great!

I put my serious face on, "Hey guys, the reason why I wanted to chat is I have some big news."

"What is it princess?" Dad asked

"Well um..I..don't know how you guys will react if I tell you."

"What, is it serious? Like are you pregnant or something like that?" Declan started laughing like it's ridiculous and I just look serious at him and fell silent.

When he saw my face, his laughter faded, "Fi, why aren't you laughing with me?" he said in a whiny tone.

"Fiona, are you pregnant!?" Holly J blurted

Then my eyes turned wide with shock, "Wait, I didn't say-"

"Fiona, how could you do this to yourself, you've just started your career, and your now having a baby!? Sweetie, I'm too young to be a grandmother!" Mom blurted

"Guys! Let me-"

"Who's the baby daddy? I'll rip his dick off!" Declan blurted

"What!? I don't have a baby-"

"Princess, tell me the guy's name, I going to call my people to haunt him down and ship him off to the safari and let the lions rip off his body off, limb by limb as a pay back to what he did to you!" Dad blurted

"Donoven!" Mom softly hit my Dad

"Okay Dad, now your just exaggerating!" I blurted

They keep blurting at me at the same and I just couldn't take it anymore, "ALRIGHT STOP! EVERYONE STOP! Before you guys blabber at me again, can I please explain first!?" Everyone just nodded at once.

"Alright, I went to the pet clinic today because Fifi have been feeling sick lately." I explained

"Aw poor dog, is Fifi alright?" Holly J asked with a pity tone.

I continued, "Well, Mr. Chris, Fifi's vet, said that it's normal for dogs in her condition."

"What do mean princess?" Dad asked with a confused look.

"What I'm saying is Fifi's two weeks pregnant." And just like that, everyone was silent and looking at each other.

"Well?..aren't you guys gonna say something?" I said waiting

"So you're not pregnant?" Declan replied

I just splat my hand on my forehead because obviously he doesn't get it. But yet I'm not surprised because he's always clueless.

"No Decs! I am NOT and I repeat NOT PREG-NANT! Remember Fifi, my dog? SHE'S the one PREG-NANT!" I said it slowly yet loud to put that information in that brain of his.

"Okay calm down Fi, I'm just clarifying." He said putting his hands up.

"So Fi, who's the 'doggy daddy'" Holly J said as Declan snorted

I rolled my eyes at Declan, "Well, the dog's name is Volta."

"Oh, what a nice name for a dog." Dad commented

"So who's Volta's owner?" Mom asked

I was kind of hesitant to answer, "Well it's..um..Imogen."

"Imogen as in Imogen Moreno!" Holly J was shocked

"Yup the one and only" I answered

"Laura dear, didn't you mention that Fiona had a huge crush on a girl name Imogen?" Dad asked as Mom nodded

I was embarrassed, "Mom! You told him!"

"Fiona, you know I can't lie to your father, and he has a right to know."

"Princess, I don't be mad at your mother, besides it's okay, I understand how you feel." I just nodded with agreement.

"So does this Imogen girl knows about Fifi's pregnancy and that her dog's the father?" Declan asked

"Well no, but I'm about to tell her." I answered

Mom butted in, "Okay, well it's getting late, we'll chat later, bye Fi, we miss you."

"I'll miss you guys too, bye!" I waved at them and shut my computer.

I took out my phone and texts Imogen,

Me: Hey Imogen, I know it's been a while, but there's something I want to tell you in person and alone.

I hit send and hoping she would reply back. Five seconds later, I got a text, I looked at my phone, and it's Imogen.

Imogen: Yeah, sure how about tomorrow at my place around noon, you remember where I live right?

Me: Yeah I remember, so I'll see you:D

Imogen: Yeah, see you:D

I put my phone away and I was just wondering how would Imogen react if I tell her? And I have to tell because both Imogen and Volta have a right to know about Fifi's condition. I just hope tomorrow will turn out well.
