Christian didn't want to risk with an over-the-counter pregnancy test, claiming they were inaccurate. He said a blood test was the most certain way to find out.

He took a blood sample and then left for lab he worked at. He would email the results as soon as he got them. He advised me to stay hydrated and to try to eat something, even if it was only soup.

I followed his advice and spent the rest of the afternoon with Lissa. I had asked her to take me home, wanting to shower and change clothes. There were a couple of messages left on the answering machine, but I paid them no mind.

I stood under the shower spray until the warm water turned cold. I dressed in the most comfortable pair of yoga pants and one of my old college sweatshirts.

As I walked out of my bedroom, Lissa received a text from Christian, letting her know he just emailed us the blood tests results.

I was too much of a coward and begged her to go look for me.

She came back five minutes later with a sheet of paper in her hand.

I didn't need to read what that paper said, I already knew.

Her face said it all.
