Chapter 84
God knew how much I yearned for that child . Losing him hurt not only my body , but my soul as well . I was at the nadir of my life . It was a nightmare for me , but Joana still made me look like the heartless village here ..
I knew I did n’t take abortion pills , but Joana accused me of the crime , and Carlos even agreed . Suddenly , a terrifying thought arose : was there more to my miscarriage at that time ? _ _ _ I thought about my pregnancy back then. It ‘s been two months since our wedding and my period , which always came on time , did n’t come .
Isabel was dating Leonardo at the time . They were always together , which meant she did n’t have time for me . However , Joana spent a lot of time with me , so I told her about it when we talked . Thinking I was pregnant , she _said I should get a kit to check . _ So she went with me to buy the kit , and the result was that I was pregnant .
I was delighted , but also nervous . When I tried to tell Carlos about it , she stopped me . Joana said that the kit could be inaccurate and that I should check it at the hospital before telling Carlos . _ _ _ _
I thought she was right , so I took her suggestion . So she went with me the day of the appointment , saying she had a friend who worked in pediatrics . When we went there for the check – up , my pregnancy was confirmed , butthe doctor said the fetus was unstable . _ They asked me if I wanted to keep the baby , to which I said yes . The doctor told me that I would have to rest a lot and be careful to avoid any miscarriages .
It was a solemn and worrying announcement , but Joan allayed my fears and said she would take care of me . Then she added that Carlos ‘s business was just starting to get better , so he needed to spend more time on it . Joanna said – _me that I should n’t tell him about the pregnancy so he would n’t get distracted .
I also knew that he worked hard and was busy . Not wanting to worry him , I listened to Joana ‘s suggestion . I was planning to take some pills to stabilize the fetus before I told him .
A week later , Carlos asked me : “ Honey , I don’t seem to have noticed that you had your period this month . Are you pregnant ? ”
Now that he was asking me , I didn’t want to hide it anymore , so I told him the truth , much to his delight . He continued kissing me . “ You ‘re pregnant , Linda ! We’re about to have a baby !
His arousal unnerved me . Worried that something might happen to the baby , I told him what the doctor had told me . Carlos was understandably worried , so he took me to another hospital for a checkup , but the doctor said that everything _it looked normal .
