Chapter 106 Am I pregnant? 2 (1/2)
As they were getting closer and closer to the apartment, both their face turned paler. Their heart was pounded so hard. In short, they were getting closer to break down.
Even Ryn was freaking out as well.
What should they do if Mika really was pregnant? Should they inform the parents first or Jason? Should they start preparing the nursery? Which house should the nursery be? The house where the sibling was living in or Jason's studio apartment? Which hospital should Mika go for her checkup? What kind of supplements suitable for Mika? What kind of food suitable for her?
Most importantly, her workload. Mika was having so many projects to handle. If she was pregnant, she should not be under too much pressure, right? So logically her workload should be reduced, right?
The journey back home was so long, it felt eternity before they reached their destination. Both were having different thoughts. None even spoke. It was so quiet in the car. Not even the radio was turned on. So quiet like a cemetery.
Finally, they reached in front of the house. Mika took a deep breath and started to punch the number.
It was rejected.
She tried again.
It was rejected again.
She turned to look at Ryn with her wet face, ”I can't seem to unlock the door.”
Ryn took over.
She actually knew the password to this house but rather liked the siblings to open the door for her.
It took her two tries to unlock it. That showed how nervous she was.
Does Mika even ready to become a mother?
Ryn locked the door and brought the huge plastic bag to the living room. She unloaded everything on the coffee table and looked at the almost fifteen pregnancy kit she bought.
Mika was like an obedient lamb, following behind her best friend. She sat on the couch with a blank face.
Ryn knew she had to take the lead. The poor lamb was so worried she could not do anything anymore.
She took a box and read the instructions. Then she took another... And another... Until she was done reading all the different pregnancy kits.
”So...” Ryn looked at Mika. ”Do you want to use all?”
”I am... I'm not sure,” Mika was so lost. She could not think anymore.
Ryn looked at the boxes scattering on the table. Was it too much?
”Maybe... Just... Four?” she chose four boxes randomly.
”What about the rest?”
”We... We will think about those later.”
Mika obediently brought the four boxes into the bathroom.
Ryn followed behind, waiting outside the bathroom. She started pacing outside, too nervous with the result.
It felt like hours before Mika finally came out. She clutched onto the four kits tightly, her lips trembling.
”I... I am too nervous to wait inside.”
”Then, we just wait at the couch,” Ryn pulled Mika back to the living room. She set the timer and stared at the four kits.
Mika, on the other hand, pulled herself back into a tight ball. She was scared to look at the result. What should she do if she really was pregnant?
None of them even moved from their seat. One was staring at the table nervously while the other was too busy fretting over her future.
The timer rang, shocking them. Mika quickly hugged Ryn, hiding her face against Ryn's back.
Ryn gulped hard. She did not feel Mika behind her. Her attention was on the pregnancy kits. Finally, it was time to know the result.
Her trembling hands pulled them closer. She tried to open her eyes bigger to see the strips clearly.
