Pregnant


    The doctor red at her and was amused. She asked him what is written in the result? "Ms Mo, you


    can check it out" the doctor replied politely.


    Theresa fearfully tore it open and nced at it. Her hand shivered. That was when Theresa knew


    she''d been sweating. Her blouse was soaking in sweat as she held the result in her hand.


    Her tears ran down her cheeks. This is what she has been afraid of. The reality stares at her in the


    face.


    " You are six weeks pregnant ma''am" the doctor stated. He stared at her and knew she wasn''t ready


    for the pregnancy.


    Rather than Theresa answering or saying something, she closed her eyes momentarily and her tears


    ran down her beautiful face.


    The doctor looked at her and from the study of psychology, he knew she was bitter and the thought of


    being pregnant had only added to their present predicament.


    "Do you want an abortion? But the man who got you pregnant needs to sign"the doctor advised. She


    still has the option of aborting the babies.


    "I don''t know the man,"Theresa blotted out. She immediately regretted it. She shouldn''t have let him


    know what happened to her.

    The doctor squinted.


    This is not part of his job but he seemed concerned  about her. Why was he going to the extreme for


    her?


    "The more reason why you should abort the pregnancy. But I would wish you don''t" the doctor


    advised. He felt pity for thedy. No wonder her hand shivered when she was about to open the


    envelope that contained the result.


    Theresa Mo thanked him and said she would sleep over it and then whatever she thinks would be


    good for her she would do.


    "Feel free to reach out to me"the doctor said and offered her hisplimentary card. Reluctantly


    Theresa Mo epted the card and went away.


    She hailed a taxi quickly and went away. She doesn''t want anyone to see her in the hospital


    premises.


    What is she going to do now? She doesn''t know the man who got her pregnant nor is she financially


    buoyant enough to take care of herself and her unborn baby.


    That evening, the doctor called Theresa Mo again and told her he would like to see her that evening


    at the ''City Restaurant''. He pleaded and Theresa agreed to meet him by 8:00pm.


    Two dayster, Rosa returned from the grocery store and he went to call Theresa out of her room.


    She had persuaded her toe along with her to the grocery store but she refused. She quite


    understands that she doesn''t want any member of Mo''s family to also see Lu''s.


    She would be resuming work the next morning, hence they needed to talk about how her first day at


    work was going to look like.


    She had only worked in Mo''s business.


    She hadn''t really worked elsewhere and she needed someone to tell her how it was to be an


    employee.


    Rosa dialled Theresa Mo''s mobile number and it was switched off. She waited for a while before she


    decided to check her in the guest room.


    But Rosa got in and didn''t meet Theresa.she felt something wasn''t right. Why does she feel the room


    is deserted?


    Theresa went out? Why didn''t shee along with her? Well, she would wait till she returns.


    A message beeped into her phone and Rosa checked it when she saw it was from Theresa.


    She was dazed when she read the content of the message. She sank into the bed and started


    sobbing.


    Why didn''t she confide in her before taking the steps she took? Was sheining about


    amodating her?


    Her Mum and brother had no problem with Theresa living with them. Why then did she do what she


    did? Rosa was sobbing.


    She didn''t know how long she stayed in the guest room but went out when she heard her mother


    arrive.


    When Rosa''s mother saw her daughter, she was surprised. Rosa has been crying for a while now.


    What happened to her?


    She went to her daughter and ced her hands on her shoulder and forced her to look at her in the


    face.


    "What''s making you sob Rosa? You can tell your mother and I promise to help you in any little way I


    can" her mother coaxed her.


    She didn''t say anything but handed her phone to her mother to look at the content of the message


    Rosaline sent


    Rosa''s mother collected the phone and read the contents of the message. Her eyes became dark and


    she nced at her daughter.


    What kind of a message was this?
