Chapter 7: Hummana-Hummana Whaaat?
It's been a month since Sean proposed. Their friends and family were thrilled for them. Kristin and Sean had been on a loose work schedule so they could have more time to plan for the wedding. Kristin would often run out of meetings about the wedding and rush to the bathroom. There she would throw up. A lot. She just thought she had a bug or something until...
'No. Just no. This CANNOT be happening.' she thought. Kristin had been throwing up a lot lately, but when she missed her period this month, she knew something was up. She stared at the pregnancy test she bought this morning. There was that little + staring at her. She didn't know what to say or do. She just sat on her bathroom floor in shock. She rubbed her stomach thinking: What am I going to do? The wedding is in 3 months. What will I tell my parents? What will I tell Sean? She just sat there on the floor planning out what she would say. This wasn't exactly something they expected. Then she heard the front door open. She dried her eyes and splashed some water on her face.
"Sean? Is that you?"
"Yup. Where are you?" He began to walk down the hallway.
"I'm right here." She stood at the bathroom door looking at him.
"There's my leading lady!" He went up to her and gave her a kiss.
"Sean, we need to talk."
Puzzled, he walked over to the couch with her. "What's the matter? You don't sound like yourself. Have you been crying? You're not saying you want to cancel the wedding are you?"
"No, no of course not. It's just, well..." she couldn't get the words out. "I...I'm..."
He became worried. "You're..."
"I'm pregnant Sean."
