All Because Of One Night

Nikki Kou

Chapter 2

AN: Okay here's chapter 3 hope you guys enjoy. Some of it was thought up while

washing dishes not that you will notice that but...here goes:

Usagi looked around the waiting room once again. Nothing had changed since the

last time she'd been here two days ago. Everything was still as drab as when

she'd left after taking all the required tests. She'd received a call yesterday

afternoon stating the doctor had received her results and needed to see her

immediately.

'I hope something isn't seriously wrong,' she thought worriedly as her eyes

followed each minute (an: pronounced my-nute meaning small. just saying so yall

don't think it's an error) movement of the second hand on the clock on the wall.

'A white clock, just like everything else...white walls...furniture...are they

deliberately trying to make me crazy, what's with all the white!' she thought

idly as she started to become more agitated.

"Miss Tsukino...? Miss Tsukino are you alright?" a voice broke through her inner

musings.

"Huh...? Uh...yeah...I'm fine, just spaced out for a few seconds there," she

responded smiling into the worried face of the nurse.

"The doctor will see you now," stated the nurse still staring intently at her.

"Thank you," replied Usagi getting up and making her way to the office.

"Good Morning Ms. Tsukino." said the doctor by way of reply.

Usagi looked up and stared, not into the dreary brown eyes of her usual doctor

but into a pair of smiling blue ones. Hair twisted into two thick corkscrew- like

pigtails lay below shoulder length on the front of a white doctor's coat, where

usually there was a plain, limp dark brown bob.

"Who are you? Where is Doctor Hamashi" she asked eyes wide.

"Doctor Hamashi had to leave on unexpected personal business yesterday. I'll be

your new doctor until she returns Miss Tsukino, that is, if it is not a

problem?" stated the woman, the question evident in her answer.

"No...it's not a problem; I'm just surprised; I was not informed of the change

in doctor," replied Usagi quickly regaining her composure.

"Sorry about that...there was not enough time to inform all her patients. I'm

Sally Po, you can call me Sally," she said with a warm smile and holding out her

hand.

"Usagi Tsukino but you know that already from my file, you can call me Usagi"

said Usagi holding out her hand her smile still slightly hesitant.

"Yes, now that we've introduced ourselves to each other let's get down to

business. I believe you had some tests taken the last time you were here,

right?" said Sally (AN: Doctor Po just sounds funny to me) taking her seat

behind the desk as Usagi sat in one of the chairs in front of the desk.

"Yes, I was informed that I could come in for the results today," replied

Usagi.

"Yes well everything is in order. Tell me do you have any living relatives?"

asked Sally.

"I was an orphan until I left and made a life for myself, I have no living

relatives...why do you need to know this?" answered Usagi a slight frown marring

her forehead.

"I'm sorry if this makes you uncomfortable but it's needed for your medical

record. If anything were to happen to you; transfusions would be easier made

from a relative as there would be less conflicts in blood type and Rhesus factor

(Rh factor). Also the blood type and the rhesus factor of the father of your

children would be helpful," stated Sally glancing at the papers before her.

"What is this factor thing?" asked Usagi trying to skirt the question about the

children's father.

"The Rh factor also deals with blood. You are aware of the blood groups?" began

Sally. At Usagi's nod she continued, "In addition to blood being grouped

according to antigens in it, it is grouped by its rhesus factor. The rhesus

factor simply involves the presence or absence of antigens on the surface of the

red blood cells (AN: I never knew my Integrated Science notes would come in this

handy :-) my science teacher would be so proud :-). Let's take you for example.

Your blood type is O your blood does not contain any antigens on the surface of

your red blood cells so your actual Blood type would be O negative (O-), however

if antigens were present on their surface you would be O positive (O+). I need

to know the father's blood type and Rh factor because if his blood is O+ or any

other type with a positive Rh factor it could cause complications in your

babies' health later on," explained Sally patiently.

"What types of complications?!" gasped Usagi eyes wide.

"If the babies have his blood type they are still growing in you. The placenta

surrounding them and the umbilical cords they are being feed through would

contain your blood type. The two different blood types would start to clot and

slogs the veins and arteries and cause the deaths of the foetuses," explained

Sally.

"But I don't know who their father is...It was a one night stand...I can't even

remember what he looks like!" gasped Usagi as tears fell down her face at the

thought that she could lose her children whom, besides how they'd been

conceived, she'd grown to love with all her heart in the past few days since

she'd found out.

"Miss Tsukino...Usagi! Don't upset yourself; there are other ways around this,

it just would have been easier if you could tell us who he was, more

specifically his exact blood type" said Sally as she came around the desk to

calm the distraught young woman.

"You must think I have no morals! You'll probably report me to Social Services

and have them take my children away when they're born!" sobbed Usagi bringing

her hands up to her face her shoulders slumping in defeat.

"Usagi...it is not my place to judge you, it is my job to see that you and your

unborn children are healthy; please stop upsetting yourself like this. It's not

good for the babies," said Sally in a quiet soothing tone.

"You're not going to report me as being an unfit parent?" asked Usagi looking up

with a puffy tear streaked face.

"You're making a good job of it now on your own so I have nothing to

report...besides haven't you heard of doctor/patient confidentiality? I utter

one word out of place and you could sue me and the hospital," said Sally with a

smile.

"Alright...but what about the blood type thing?" asked Usagi accepting a couple

of tissues from Sally to clean her face.

"Well until the fetuses are old enough to take a placenta test (okay this is

where I begin to take artistic liberty with medical science) to determine their

blood types I'll prescribe you with medication which you are to take 3 times a

day. Before breakfast, lunch and dinner. I must warn you, the pill prevents the

clotting of blood so you have to avoid sharp objects and injury at all costs,

that would mean staying away from knives and broken glass and other such

objects," stated Sally seriously.

"But how am I supposed to clean my apartment, wash the dishes, work, do

anything...isn't there an alternative?" asked Usagi as the enormity of what

Sally was asking her to do sunk in.

"Take time off from work and check into a hotel, somewhere where you won't have

to do much. We'll only be able to do the placenta test when you're four months

pregnant. That is when it will be safest for the fetuses. So I want you to come

in for regular check ups every month but the placenta test will be done

approximately three months from now," stated Sally glancing once again at the

folder opened on her desk.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- _-_-
Sally sat back in her chair after Usagi had left, fingers steepled beneath her

chin in thought. Turning decisively to the vid-phone.

"Quatre Rebarba-Winner speaking," came the voice on the vid-phone a few minutes

later.

"Yes Quatre, just letting you know. We've found WXX30 and she appears to be your

twin..."

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- _-_-
Okay so what do you guys think and don't give me the Quatre's twin is over done

crap. It's how I've chosen to incorporate it into my fic. You guys will see

where this all comes together soon. Ja ne and don't forget to R&R with your

thoughts.
