A wise man once said , “ Look into a man ‘s eyes , for therein lies the truth of his soul . _ _ If his soul is golden , his eyes will shine like the sun . If it’s shrouded in darkness , you won’t see anything beyondof darkness and lies . Whenever a man speaks , look into his eyes , for therein lies the truth of his soul . ” At this moment , Carlos looked at me brightly , without an ounce of hidden truth .
I knew he was genuinely happy . _ If he had n’t cheated , and if I was actually pregnant , this would have been a happy occasion , but now ? That was just plain ironic . I looked down , hiding the storm brewing inside . _
from me .
Drowned in his ecstasy , Carlos didn’t notice my emotions . “ I will go to the hospital with you tomorrow for a thorough check – up . Honey , you should quit your job now that you’re pregnant . From now on , we will protect her at all costs .. You are the center of our attention right now .”
Obviously he was excited about my pregnancy . _ _ In other words , he was n’t the one who switched my meds . This means that only Joana is the possible culprit . Isabel is right . Joana must have planned this a long time ago . this damnbitch . How dare she try to make me infertile for life ? _ _ Ah , so she thought she might marry Carlos because she ‘s pregnant with his child ? _ In your dreams of Her.
Carlos went to the hospital with me the next morning . With Isabel ‘s help , the check – up went smoothly . _ _ After we received the report , Carlos couldn’t take the euphoria any longer and held me in his arms , ignoring all the people in the hospital ..
Now that my plan worked , I put aside my disgust and pretended to be happy . “ I didn’t expect that , dear . Does this mean we ‘re having our own baby ?
“ Yes , we will ,” he replied .
“ Carlos , tell Dad and Mom the news , then . _ _ _ They ‘ve been waiting a long time , so it ‘s time they knew , ” I suggested .
“ Of course . I should tell them so they can share in the happiness . _ ”
I was looking forward to this phone call . If he called his mother , Joana would know that I was ‘ pregnant ‘ . I wondered how . _ would she feel ? Disappointed ? Sad ? Nervous ? Or the three ?
Carlos ‘ call was quick , but instead of calling his mother , he called his father . _ _ _ “ Good news , Dad ! Linda is pregnant ! ”
