Part 25
Paul and i left the doctors after i was diagnosed and we decided to take a walk around first, as the doctor suggested that i keep on moving around. We got back to his car and made our way back to my house.
I opened the door and entered to find my mother sitting on her chair waiting.
"So.... what did the doctor say" she asked with a concerned tone of voice.
"Well mum.... this may be a little hard to take... i know how proud you are, and i feel it best to tell you now"
He face went white. Her eyes skimed my face, and Pauls face, down to our joined hands and she focused on my stomach.
"Mum??? what are you looking there for?"
"Well.... i... arent you... pregnant?"
"ummm"
"Well... i thought you too were.... you know..."
"Well... we ahh...i " i couldnt answer that. all i did was blush
"Mum... im.... ive got.... food poisoning"
Paul burst out laughing... i could tell it was difficult for him to keep a strait face throughout the whole thing.
"food poisoning???? from what?"
"Well... you know how you made me some sort of fish dish the other day... i guess the fish was off"
"You little.... geez, and i thought that fish smelt funny..."
We laughed together and chatted about... sex.. and a few other things... my mother began giving both of us 'the talk' but felt quite embarassed when i said that we already knew about it all.
It was really light hearted until i felt someone else in the room and noticed my father standing in the doorway.
"Dad? how long have you been there?"
"Long enough.... Paul... you can go home"
