Chapter 41: Pregnancy Test
"What do we do now?" I ask Rachel while holding the pregnancy test in my hand.
Rachel glances at the box, "It says to pee directly on the tip side of the test stick with the result window facing up for 5-10 seconds", she reads.
"Ok, sounds easy enough", I say and start to unbutton my jeans, "Um, do you mind?" I ask Rachel.
Rachel sighs, "I'll wait right outside till you're done", she says and leaves.
"Thanks", I say. I take a deep breath as I take the pregnancy test. After I finish I wash my hands and grab a bit of toilet paper and sit the test on top of it. I open the door to let Rachel back in.
"The box says we have to wait five to ten minutes", I say, "I'm so nervous"; I say and start pacing the bathroom.
"It's going to be ok Kori", Rachel says, "Take deep breaths", she says trying to calm me down.
A knock on the door, catches my attention, "Rae! What are you doing in there I got to go!" Gar yells.
"Not now Gar! We're busy!" Rachel yells.
Gar groans, "but I really have to pee!" Gar yells.
"You're going to have to wait till we get the test results!" I yell.
"Kori? Is that you? Why are you taking a test in the bathroom with Rachel?!" Gar asks.
"It's a pregnancy test!" I yell.
"WHAT! RACHEL IS PREGNANT!" Gar yells and suddenly there is a huge crash.
I open the door and gasp, "Um Rachel, Gar just fainted!" I yell.
"What?!" Rachel yells and kneels beside Gar and checks his vital signs, "He's still breathing, he'll be fine", she says, "Can you get me a cool cloth and a towel to prop his head?" she ask.
"Sure", I say and get a washcloth from the bathroom closet and run some cold water, I then grab a bigger towel and hand both to Rachel.
"Thanks", she says and lifts Gar's head to place a towel underneath it; she then places a cool cloth on his forehead.
A beeping noise catches my attention and my stomach flips with nervousness, "Rachel, it's time", I say.
She gets up where she is kneeling and walks over toward me, "Ready?" she asks.
I take a deep breath, "Yes"; I say and pick up the pregnancy test.
"Well?" Rachel asks, "What does it say?" she asks.
I look at the pregnancy test again to make sure what I am seeing is real, "I'm pregnant", I say.
Rachel hands me a cup of herbal tea, "Congrats to the new mom", she says.
I giggle, "I'm not a new mom yet, more like future mom", I say, "I can't believe I'm having a baby", I say and rub my stomach, "I don't even look pregnant", I say.
"You probably will start showing soon", Rachel says.
"Yea, oh gosh I still can't believe I'm having a baby", I say.
"You've said that like ten times", Rachel says.
"I know, I can't help it, it hasn't sunk in yet, I'm really excited though", I say.
"Me too, you and Dick are going to be great parents", Rachel says.
"Thanks Rachel", I say.
Gar starts stirring on the couch next to us, "Ugh, what happened", he says.
"You fainted when you thought Rachel was pregnant", I say.
"RACHEL IS PREGNANT!" Gar yells and starts hyperventilating.
Rachel smacks Gar on the back of the head, "Snap out of it! Kori is pregnant", Rachel says, "I was just there to help her take the test", Rachel says.
"Oh", Gar says and starts to calm down, "Cool, I'm going to be an uncle!" Gar says.
I laugh,"Yes, Gar you're going to be an uncle, congrats", I say.
"When are you going to tell Richard?" Rachel asks.
"I don't know, I want to plan something special and tell him, like a nice dinner", I say.
"That sounds like a good idea", Rachel says.
"Yea, anyway, I will sort of the details later let's start planning your wedding", I say.
"Ugh, girl talk, I'm leaving", Gar says and Rachel and I laugh.
After leaving Rachel's house, I stop by and get a pizza and head home, I still couldn't believe that I was actually pregnant, 'There's a mini Richard or Kori inside of me' I think to myself as I rub my hand over my stomach for the millionth time. I park my car in the garage and exit and head to our condo, a bouquet of roses are waiting for me at the doorstep. 'Richard is so sweet' I think to myself and smile. I pick up the flowers and open the door and shut it behind me. I sit the flowers on the kitchen tables and read the card wedge between the flowers.
'Today I caught myself smiling for no reason…Then I realized I was thinking about you, I hope to see you soon'
-Slade Wilson
I read the card again in shock, 'Slade sent this? How does he even know where I live' I think to myself. This guy was really beginning to creep me out, I hear the door open and I quickly rip the card in pieces and dispose of it in the garbage can.
"Hi honey, how was your day?" I ask as Richard walks in.
"Busy", he says and loosen his tie, "This merger is a lot more than what I expected", he says.
"I'm sorry to hear that", I say, "Are you hungry?" I ask.
"Yea, Richard says and walks toward the kitchen, "Whoa nice flowers, who are they from?" he asks.
"Um Donna… she sent them to apologize about the frat party thing", I say and quickly feel guilty for lying to Richard.
"Wow that was nice", he says, "What's for dinner?" he asks.
"I bought some pizza", I say and fix him a couple of slices.
"Pizza wow, it's been a while since I've had that", Richard says.
"Yea, I figured, we could have one of our old school date nights like in high school", I say, "Maybe even watch a movie", I say.
Richard smiles, "That sounds great Kori", he says.
I finish fixing our plates and Richard puts a movie in the DVD player, I sit next to Richard and snuggle close to him, as I watch the movie, my mind begins to wonder all the events that happen today, with finding out I'm pregnant and Slade's creepy flower gift.
"You ok Kor?" Richard asks.
I snap out of my thoughts, "Yea, I'm great", I say and focus on enjoying tonight just like old times.
