Chapter 44
"Mom!" I cry, instantly hugging her. "Oh my God! I can't believe you're here!"
"Hi baby." She says, her brunette hair dangling to the side.
"What are you doing here?"
"Well Stephanie called me and told me that Randy couldn't make it to your appointment. She asked me if I wanted to fill in, and of course I said yes."
"How'd you get here so fast? I thought you were in Germany?"
"Stephanie called me days ago, she knew Randy had to work today."
"Oh," I smile at her, I hadn't seen my mom in over a year, and I'd really missed her. "I'm so glad you're here." I hug her again.
"Me too baby, me too." She smiles at me, her brown eyes sparkling. "We should be heading to the clinic." I nod and grab my purse. We get into her Sudan and head to the clinic.
On the way to the clinic, mom and I mostly talked about what she'd been doing in Germany. She'd told me she met a man, and went over there to meet his family. We arrived at the clinic and got signed in. We waited for about 15 minutes when Dr. Claire Echart came out.
"Emmalyn Guerrero?" I nod. "I'll see you now." Mom and I get up, heading back into her office. We sit down, mom in the chair, and me on the exam bed. Dr. Echart closes the door.
"So, Ms. Guerrero, I understand that you are about 3 months along?" She asks, I nod. "Okay, and this is your first appointment since finding out?"
"Uhm actually the day I found out I was at the doctors, but since then, yes it's the first time."
"All right. Have you had any pains, or what you would think of as unusual symptoms? I'm assuming you've studied up on pregnancy?"
"Yeah, I have, and no, no unusual symptoms."
"All right." She looks at my mom. "This is the grandma?" She nods.
"Diana Holmes, I'm Emmalyn's mother."
"All right, and where is daddy?" I glance down.
"He's at work right now."
She nods. "I see. And he couldn't take this day off because?" I look at her, wondering why the hell she was asking me this.
"Because our boss wouldn't let him. Why?"
She sighs, "I've seen this many times before." I look at her, more confused than ever. "Guys get a girl pregnant and run out leaving them to go through their pregnancy alone."
"Whoa!" I yell, interrupting her. "Look, Randy didn't skip out on me. And I'd appreciate it if you didn't insinuate that he did. He's a professional wrestler and our boss is making him wrestle."
She nods slowly. "All right, if you're sure."
"I'm positive. I'm best friends with the bosses daughter. Trust me, he isn't skipping out."
"If you're best friends with the bosses daughter, then why didn't he let him have the day off?" I glare at her, the stupid bitch was pissing me off.
"Look, Vince McMahon doesn't care if you've got family issues or not. He just wants to entertain the fans, and Randy is one of the top performers he has, so he uses him constantly. Now if you insinuate 1 more time that my fiance is skipping out on me, I will get another doctor." She looks at me and nods.
"I'm sorry. I just don't like seeing girls come in here with no man."
"Well don't worry, I'm not one of those." She nods.
"All right. Well we'll get you hooked up for an ultrasound, so we can see the baby and approximate a due date." I nod and she heads out. I let out a breath.
"Wow, you handled yourself very well hunny." Mom says.
"Yeah, well I didn't feel like waiting on another doctor." She comes back in, rolling the ultrasound machine towards me.
"Please lay down so I can put this gel on your stomach." I lay back, pulling my shirt up. She grabs the gel. "Just warning you now, this will be cold." I nod, and she puts it on my stomach. I shiver, she wasn't kidding. She grabs a part off the machine and rubs it over the gel. She looks at the monitor. I hear, what sounds like a heartbeat. "Hear that?" She asks, I nod, excitedly. "That's your baby's heartbeat." I grin wildly and look at my mom, who's smiling.
"Oh look!" She exclaims. I look back at the monitor, and see a head and hand, with webbed fingers.
"That's your baby." Dr. Echart says. I smile and grin happily, tears in my eyes. "Would you like pictures?" I nod.
"Can you make duplicates for my fiance?" She nods. "It's so amazing." She takes the pictures of the head, hand and body. "Is there any way I could record the heartbeat? Like on my phone?" She nods and I grab my phone and start recording. After a minute I stop. "Thanks." She nods and turns the machine off. She cleans my stomach off and takes the machine away.
"That was amazing!" I say, unable to stop smiling.
"Yes, it was."
"Randy would've loved it." I say. Mom is about to say something when Dr. Echart comes back in with the pictures. She hands them to me.
"Here's the pics and duplicates. I've labeled each one."
"Thanks Doc."
"Now, I see you've already got all your appointments scheduled up until November. Your approximate due date is November 21st. The week before, I want to see you every day, okay?" I nod, mentally noting to put it on the calendar. She hands me a paper. " A list, of all you appointments."
"Thanks." She smiles.
"You're welcome. Now, I've prescribed some prenatal vitamins for you to take, and the receptionist has them. You're free to go, and I'll see you next month."
"Thanks." She smiles. I hope off the bed and mom and I head to the receptionist's desk. She gives me my vitamins and mom and I leave. She looks at me.
"What's Randy like?" She asks. I glance at her and back at the road.
"He's uhm, really sweet, caring, loving, handsome, and all around perfect." I say, mom chuckles.
"'All around perfect'?" I nod. She shakes her head. "That's what I thought about your dad." I glance at her.
"Where are you going with this mom?" I ask, confused. I knew dad left her, and was hoping she wasn't trying to tell me Randy'd do the same.
"I still love your dad. He's the love of my life." She smiles. "And if you feel that way about Randy, then I know he must be a good guy, because your dad was a hell of a good man."
"He is." I agree. "I just wish he could have been here."
"Where is he wrestling?"
"Cleveland, OH."
"That's only a few hours from here, right?" I nod, a bit confused. "Well, let's go surprise him!" I glance at her.
"Really? You want to?" I ask her. I really wanted Randy to meet her. "He's got tons of shows to do."
"That's fine, we can travel wit him, and once I've gotten to know him a bit I'll head out. That way you two can have time alone." I smile at her. We head back home, packing my clothes up and getting directions to the arena in Cleveland, and take off.
What do you think Randy is going to think? Hmm... Please Review!
