Chapter 7: The big news!
It's been a week from Atem and Tima's wedding and Tima was as sick as a dog. She threw up all week and kept getting worse. One morning, she threw up at least three times and Atem finally had enough. "Tima, I don't care what you say. You're seeing a doctor…TODAY!"
Tima glared at him as best she could with how sick she was. "Atem, you know how much I hate doctors. Besides, it could be a little thing."
Atem didn't care about her opinion. He just dragged Tima to the doctor and left her there pouting. "I have an important matter to attend but I'll see you when the sun goes down. Oh…and don't even think about trying to get away from this. I got a guard outside."
Tima sweatdropped and continued to pout while waiting for the doctor to come. When she finally came, Tima threw up again in a bowl that was near by. When she saw this, the doctor knew it was bad. She led Tima into a little room and started. "Tell your symptoms."
"Well I've been throwing up for at least a week, I'm always nauseous, and my stomach seems hard in this one place."
"Show me where." Tima pointed to the center and the doctor felt it. She gasped and Tima asked what was wrong. "Nothing and there is nothing wrong with you either. At least…not in a bad way."
Tima looked at her with her eyebrow raised. The doctor smiled and whispered in her ear. After hearing the statement, Tima fainted.

Later that night, Atem returned from the appointment he had. He was a little concerned about Tima, since she's been ill for a while. But when he entered their bedroom, he found her on the bed with a far away look on her face holding her stomach. "So…what did the doctor say?"
She just smiled and said, "I'm fine…in terms of illness. There is nothing wrong with me. But there is something…going on with me."
Atem raised his eyebrow and asked, "What are you talking about? You're not making any sense"
Tima continued to smile as she got up, still holding her stomach. "I'll give you a clue…and I hope you understand this. When a man and woman have…what usually happens to the woman?"
"What? She usually gets—" Realizing what he was about to say, he gasped and his eyes grew wide. "You mean…you're—"
She nodded. "Yes…I'm pregnant."
Atem couldn't control himself. He hugged Tima with all his might and twirled her around. After a few minutes, he set her down on the bed and joined her. "So…how far along are you?"
"I'm probably only a few weeks. Our child was probably conceived during that first night."
Atem smiled and put his hand on her stomach. Tima sighed and put her hand on top of his. Then, he thought of something. "What shall call our baby?"
"While I was waiting for you, I thought of a name for a girl; Myrrh."
"Myrrh…it's pretty. I like it."
"Now, you have to think of one if it's a boy."
Atem thought long and hard and finally came to a decision. "How about Osiris?"
Tima thought it over, nodded, and said, "Not bad. It's perfect for a boy. But I hope it's a girl."
Atem grinned. "Well…boy or girl, it will be born to the best parents."
Tima sighed again and whispered, "I hope so." After that statement, she looked very deep in thought. Atem asked her if something was wrong. "I've always wanted to be a Mother and a good one at that. But I don't know if I can after…these last few years."
Atem just kissed her. "You know better. You have a pure Ka. Your parents didn't. Those with pure Ka are pure in everyway, no matter what."
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely."
Tima smiled a little and yawned. "I'm going to bed. I'm really tired after today. Good night, Atem."
"Good night, Tima."
They kissed and went to sleep, both happy beyond their dreams. For not only were they married but they had a child on the way.
I'm just going to go straight to when Tima gives birth. How will Tima and Atem handle child-birthing? Find out next time!
