Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What did you say?” Sophia suspected that she had heard it wrong.
The doctor was used to seeing young ladies surprised when they heard the diagnosis after coming to the hospital alone. These girls were always blinded by the flowery words of men, it was only after the terrible consequences that they realized that those men would disappear at the first instance of any responsibilities. They could only face it alone.
She felt a little sympathetic, so she pointed at the computer screen and patiently said, “You are indeed pregnant. Judging from the growth of the fetus, it has been at least five weeks.”
Sophia stared at the screen in a daze. A smooth gray sphere appeared on the pitch-black image. A seahorse-like shape was faintly visible.
She caressed her flat abdomen. Was she actually carrying a fledgling life?
“According to the results of the examination, the fetus is developing very well. However, you don’t look very good as the mother. You haven’t eaten much recently, right?”
Sophia’s mind was in a mess. She just nodded in a daze.
“This is very common. Pregnant women should pay more attention to their diet and have more rest than usual. Otherwise, they are prone to nausea and vomiting.”
The doctor printed out the examination report and placed it on the table in front of Sophia.
Sophia only stared at her stomach and did not react.
The doctor glanced at her. She was afraid that Sophia would get emotional, so she took the initiative to ease the atmosphere and said, “Based on your age, you are still a student, right?”
Sophia shifted her gaze away from her stomach and answered obediently, “Yes, I am a third-year student at Rotary University.”
“That’s an accidental pregnancy, I suppose? After all, at your age, you should be focusing on academics. Getting pregnant, giving birth, and raising a child are all very demanding things.”
Sophia’s thoughts were a mess. How could she not be surprised? She was much more mature now. Naturally, she knew that getting pregnant was not something she could achieve alone. However, she had never had a boyfriend, nor had she had sex with anyone. She had only held hands and danced with the men around her recently. She had always thought that she was still a virgin. How did she suddenly get pregnant?
“If you are not ready to be a mother, a five-week-old baby can be aborted. However, I suggest that you discuss it with the father of the child. If you can give birth, then do so. After all, every child is an angel sent by God.”
The child’s father?
Sophia was stunned for a moment. Then she remembered that she still did not know who the father of the child was.
A five-week-old child… five weeks…
She remembered! It was that strange dream!
The unknown man in the dream who kept pressing down on her and assaulted her, forcing her to call him “Hubs”!
So that was not a dream!
Sophia’s facial expressions twisted. Her blank expression was mixed with doubt, anger, and a hint of embarrassment.
These complicated emotions disappeared when she saw the photo on the table, and she became at a loss.
Should she abort it?
That was her child after all…
“The child is already five weeks old. If you want to abort it, this is the time to do it. The fetus will develop organs soon, and you will hurt both the child and yourself should you decide to abort then.”
As a doctor, she respected every life. Naturally, she did not want Sophia to have an abortion. However, if an abortion was decided, her patient had the right to know the least harmful way of approaching it.
Sophia said sadly, “Thank you, I will consider it carefully.”
After picking up the examination report, Sophia left the doctor’s diagnosis room. After confirming with the doctor that she was indeed pregnant, she still needed to have a blood test, regardless of her decision on the child.
She went looking for the testing lab and her attention was slowly attracted by the women along the corridor.
Some of these women had very big bellies, and they held their bellies carefully with their arms around them. Some of them were flat like hers, but they also walked very carefully.
The atmosphere made her nervous, as her pace slowed down.
Such a small child was in her stomach. If she was not careful, the child would be very uncomfortable, right?
After thinking for a while, Sophia suddenly regained her senses and laughed.
What was she thinking? She hadn’t decided if she was keeping the child…
This child came too suddenly. Logically speaking, she should have gone for an abortion, without hesitation.
She was still so young, still in school, and had never had a serious romantic relationship. Having a child for no reason would bring a lot of trouble to her life, right?
Moreover, she didn’t even know who the father of the child was.
Aborting seemed to be the best choice for her.
But…
This was a small life that was born from her body. It was her own child that was flowing with her blood.
To abort a child was to cut off a piece of flesh from her body.
She would be heartbroken.
Sophia did not know what to do.
Anyway, after such a big incident, she would not go to school.. She needed to go home and think about it.
