Chapter 36.

A month later

A month later she woke up, feeling very queasy. She stayed in bed as long as she could but finally she had to surrender and rush to the bathroom, waking Will up in the process. He stirred as he felt her rush out of bed, rubbed his eyes and then followed her.

When he found her in the bathroom she was bended over the toilet.

"Oh honey, another stomachflu?" he asked, sounded worried when she was done for the time.

She didn't answer because she had another wave come over her again and she emptied her stomach.
When she was done she flushed, sat down on the floor and covered her face with her hands.

Will sat down next to her, wrapping his arm around her shoulders, trying to comfort her.

"No, this time I don't think it's stomachflu" she answered, sobbing.

He watched her questioningly.

"What do you mean, it's not the stomachflu? What else could it be?"

"I think I might be ... "she sobbed.

"Might be ... ? What?"

"Pregnant" she answered.

"I thought you were on the pills?"

"Yes, I was but I noticed a week ago that I must have forgotten to take a couple. Besides they're not foolproof."

"Oh honey" Will said.

He was happy but at the same time sad. He wished he could make her fears and pain go away. In a way he wished that Grace never had hired her, because if she didn't Karen would not feel this, or go through this right now.

"Maybe you should see a doctor today huh?" Will said softly, giving her a gentle squeeze.

She leaned her head on his shoulder.

"Yeah, I need to see one today."

At the doctors office

"Well, from what I can see from these tests, you are very much pregnant mrs Truman" the doctor said.

All three was sitting in his office, the doctor, Will and Karen. When the doctor said the word pregnant, Karen flinched and squeezed Will's hand even tighter than before.

"How far gone am I?" she asked with a barely audible shiver in her voice.

"From what I can see, about 6 or 7 weeks" the doctor answered.

There was not a sound to be heard in the room when the doctor had uttered those words. Karen knew that she was pregnant because she had forgotten to take those two pills.

"I would like you to come in every month mrs Truman" the doctor said, "so we can check that everything is going fine and for some tests."

"I'll make sure she goes" Will said, squeezing Karen's hand.

"Alright, then I'll see you in a month then" the doctor said.

"Thank you dr Collier" Will said getting out of the chair and shook the doctors hand.

Karen didn't say anything but got out of the chair very absentmindedly and shook the doctors hand before taking Will's and walking out of the office and out of the hospital.

They went for a walk in Central Park to allow Karen to get together, she felt like she was surrounded by fog making everything blurry.

Will had a steady grip on her hand, looking really worried. He knew just how afraid she was, but he was there to make sure that nothing happened this time. She was going to rest as much as possible, he would make sure of that.

The weather was clear. The spring had begun and turned into almost summer. Will steered her towards a bench near a fountain. She still walked around all absentmindedly. Will was worried about her.

"Honey, are you OK?" he asked.

"Huh?" she looked confused. "Yeah, I'm fine" she answered, "just peachy."

"How are you feeling about this?"

"About what?"

"You being pregnant?"

"I don't know. I mean I kinda knew before we went to the doctor, but now that I really know for sure, I guess I'm feeling kinda good."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah" she said, actually meaning it.

"Good, should we go home? You need some rest?"

"Nah, I can sit here for a little while."

She leaned her head onto his shoulder and he wrapped his arm around her shoulders, as they were watching the people go by minding their own business.
