287.Chapter 287
“Some light exercise is good for you. Don’t just lie around all day, or your circulation will get worse. Walking or a slow jog is fine, but nothing too intense, okay?”
“I drank a little and got a bit tipsy. I’ll definitely be more careful next time,” Teresa replied and finally glanced at the doctor’s name tag: Rebecca Nelson. She wondered,‘ Another Nelson. There really are a lot of people with that surname.‘
Rebecca’s voice rose as she said, “You drank? Are you out of your mind? You’ve got pregnancy brain, you know!”
Snapped back to reality by Rebecca’s outburst, Teresa pressed her lips together. Honestly, pregnancy brain was real–she’d even woken up groggy and almost gone out to buy contraceptive pills.
But after seeing that scene on TV–Jonathan laughing and chatting with a female boss, and realizing that everyone else seemed to move on with their lives, Teresa just felt so awful that she couldn’t help but have a drink.
Rebecca added, “You young people these days are really something. I’ve seen it all- women fighting with their husbands, coming for abortions and then being coaxed into going home, or partying so hard that they lose the baby and come here crying. Nothing surprises me anymore.”
“I don’t go clubbing, and I’d never get an abortion,” Teresa said. “He was the one who
started it.”
Rebecca said, “Tell your husband to hold back. He’s a grown man and won’t die from waiting. If he won’t listen, send him to me. I’ll set him straight.”
“No need,” Teresa said. She thought to herself, ‘I’m not going to see that man again anyway, and I’m definitely not going to end up in bed with him again. That night was just like a fleeting dream–gone without a trace.‘
Seeing her reaction, Rebecca just sighed and said, “Just get plenty of rest and have your husband keep you company. Next time, bring him along for your checkup.”
“I understand. Thank you,” replied Teresa.
Teresa left the hospital, and since it was already afternoon, she headed to the kindergarten to pick up Michael.
She’d already contacted the kindergarten on Monday, letting Michael try it out for a couple of days to see if he could get used to the place. If he settled in, he’d stay.

Michael had lunch at the kindergarten and Terasa promised to pick him up in the afternoon. She’d also promised him a little electric scooter, and it was already bought -a white one.
