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 vige here ..


    I knew I did n’t take abortion pills , but Joana used me of


    the crime , and Carlos even agreed . Suddenly , a terrifying thought arose : was there more to my misc


    arriage 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’te .


    Isabel was dating Leonardo at


    the time . They were always together , which meant she did n’t have time for me . However , Joana spe


    nt 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 inurate and that I shou


    ld 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 ther


    e for the check –


    up , my pregnancy was confirmed , butthe doctor said the fetus was unstable . _ They asked me if I wa


    nted 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 ayed 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 sp


    end 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 nning to  take some pills to stabilize the fetus before I told hi


    m .


    A weekter , 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 docto


    r had told me . Carlos was understandably worried , so he took me to another hospital for a checkup , b


    ut the doctor said that everything _it looked normal .


    I found


    it unbelievable at first . Worried that she might have missed something , I told her what the other doctor


    had told me , much to her chagrin . _ She said that she


    has never made a mistake throughout her long years in this field . “ Not thatit ‘s little . Do you think I wo


    uld lie ? I was relieved to see how adamant the doctor was , but I noticed that Carlos looked somber .
