FALSE POSITIVE”
******************************
“Vanessa, don’t you think that it’s time for you and Keith to have baby?” Chloe said after a sip of her tea.
“We’ll get there. I think, its not too late for us to have a baby. I mean we’re still young though.” I responded as I stared at her.
I’m Vanessa and I’m married with this guy named Keith. We’re almost four years in a marriage but we still don’t have a baby yet.
Keith is a pilot while I’m a business woman. Most of his flights are international flights and we barely have time to spend it with each other.
When he don’t have flights lined up, that’s the time I received business deals abroad. So no wonder why in almost four years of us being in a marriage we still don’t have a baby.
“Honey, when I am going to see you again?” I asked Keith on the line.
“I still have two more international flights, perhaps I could spend my rest day with you in weekend.” He said.
“Oum okay. See you! Take care honey!”
“Thanks hon, I love you!” He smacked on the line before I dropped the phone.
Few days later, Keith is finally coming home.
I rushed myself while putting make up on my face. I grabbed the key of my car and hurriedly went to the garage.
I’m now on my way to the airport to pick up Keith. He told me that he’ll just call our driver to pick him up, but I insisted that it would be better if I’ll be the one to drive him back home.
I finally arrived at the airport and I’m still in my car waiting for my husband to came up. I opened the window of my car to breathe some fresh air.
I was tapping the steering as I stared out the window. While centering my eyes at the exit door, someone suddenly kissed me on my cheeks.
I was caught astound when I found out who did it. It was Keith! I hurriedly get off my car as I hop on to him.
“Oh gosh! I missed you honey!” I said while hugging him.
“I missed you so bad honey.” He said while wearing a wide smile as he gave me his warm kiss.
We decided to go home and spend our precious time with each other. I got time to cook his favorite foods again after several of weeks. I haven’t done it for him because we’re both busy.
I must say that we had an intimate moment that time.
Time passed by so fast when I’m with him. After two nights, everything went back into normal. He get back to his work as I do so.
It will took him several of weeks to come home again because he just told me that most of his flights would be out of the boarder of asia.
“Vanessa, I heard that you will be having a partnership with the Chan? Is that true?” Chloe asked me while having a cup of tea inside my office.
“Yes. Chan’s are known in the business and the partnership would be a benifit for both of our companies.” I explained.
“Speaking of benifit, how was your weekend with Keith? I assume that you guys had an intimate time…” Chloe bantered me, I heaved a deep sigh as I rolled my eyes on her.
Chloe always have this teasing reminder that me and Keith should already have a baby since we’re not getting younger anymore.

Chloe asked me to join her for a dinner in a restaurant we used to visit before. I don’t have any business matters to finished up so I decided to come with her.
The dishes has been serve and we start to eat. But when the white truffle pasta was served, I started to have this weird feeling. I think I’m gonna vomit.
“What’s that smell! Ugh!” My nose suddenly became sensitive the moment it was served.
“But that’s your favorite White Truffle pasta?
I mean, that smells like a floral to you. You could’ve even sniff that all day, but now? Omg Vanessa? Does this mean that you’re already preg—” She wasn’t able to finished her sentence when I suddenly stood up.
I went rushed to the comfort room of the restaurant because I felt that something made me feel bad.
It took me quite a minute to get back.
Starting that day, I often feel something weird about myself. I became sensitive of everything especially with foods.
Chloe must be right? Maybe I’m pregnant. I mean why not?
I took a pregnancy test and consult an obygyne just to make sure. I even consulted another obygyne for a second opinion. And all of them says that I’m pregnant.
It felt like I’m on a cloud nine that time. In four years of us being in a marriage finally! We’re having a baby!
I grabbed my phone as I excitedly dialed Keith’s number. Gladly, he just landed so he could use his phone.
“Honey I’m pregnant! My obygne said that I’m three weeks pregnant! Finally we’re having a baby!” I said while having a wide smile.
“Wh-what? Really? Does it mean that I’m going to be a dad soon?! I’m going to be a dad soon!” He said while on the line as I could trace right in his voice that he’s happy about this good news I just told him.
Keith told me that he’ll ask for a leave so that he could watch after me. He’ll be coming home maybe few days from now.

Today is the schedule of my check-up. I rest myself on the bed as the obygne observe my baby.
“There must be a mistake in my first check-up with you Vanessa. I’m sorry to say this but you’re just experiencing false...
