“I am so happy about this and It is perfectly normal for you to be nervous.”
Vicky nodded slowly. “What could be the worst that would happen?”
“No, don’t go there. I am sure you will do just fine. Being nervous doesn’t mean you should overthink the situation. Oscar has no choice but to accept you. He wasn’t involved in Sophie’s life and I am sure he wouldn’t want to miss anything about this cutie.”
“He may be p d at you at first which I think is quite expected but it is almost impossible for lovers to stay mad at each other for long.”
“What I want to say is that you should fight for him and I have no doubt that he is going to do the same for you.”
“You both have wasted so much time already. So it is high time you started making good
memories.”
“You don’t hate Bessie, right? You really don’t think she has anything to do with Oscar?”
“I don’t hate her. I don’t just like the fact that they are friends. I try not to let the thought get into me but it is almost impossible.”
“I asked the question just so I could confirm your feelings for Oscar. He definitely has your heart wrapped around him. Just that you weren’t admitting it all these while.”
“We used to be so much in love,” Vee whispered.
“I’m sure he loves you as much as you still love him.”
“After all the mess I caused, I can only hope so.”
Kathie was about to say something else when a nurse in her scrubs approached them where they were seated in the reception area. “Doctor Rees is back in and ready to see you.” She
announced with a small smile.
“Thank you.” Kathie smiled back.
The nurse nodded, then took her leave.
“Let’s go,” Kathie said to Vee after which they both rose to their feet.
“You seem more excited than I am,” Victoria mumbled as they both walked towards the Doctor’s office.
“You have no idea how I have been craving to become a godmother again.”
“You freak me out a lot but I am glad I have you.” Vicky admitted.
“You are welcome.”
They got to the Doctor’s office in no time and they took their seats.
“You looked pretty nervous in there,” Dr Reces directed at Vicky while she wrote something down on a paper.
“Yeah, I had my first child five years ago so I almost forgot what the process could be like.”
“It’s normal but the baby is doing well and I am sure you could tell from the heartbeat.”
“You didn’t request it but I had some pictures printed out. Your little one is still very tiny but I figured out you would want them.”
“Thank you so much.” Vee smiled, accepting the envelope from Dr. Rees.
“Your next appointment is the 15th of next month and if the father of the baby is chanced, I would love for him to come along with you”
Vicky nodded, not knowing what to say.
“Oh, please don’t feel shy. I will be in charge of your check-up till your due date so I always love it when my patients go through the process with their partners. It is a journey and you both have to walk through it together. I would also be giving him some tasks too so we can prepare ahead for the labor.”
Kathie smiled, nodding, “I like the sound of that.”
“You said you have a child. A girl or a boy?” The doctor asked.
“A girl. Her name is Sophie. She will be Five in a couple of weeks.”
“I am sure she must be really excited about being a big sister. We would extend an invitation. to her during one of the checkups. I hope she will be glad to honor it.”
Victoria nodded.
“Good!” Dr. Rees said, turning her attention back to the report on the chart before her.
“Everything is looking good, which is great news. Remember to take good care of yourself; rest well, eat well, stay hydrated, and avoid stress. Your precious little one needs all the love and attention you can give it
Vee nodded as her hand instantly went around her belly, possessively.
Kathie saw that and she smiled proudly.
“Here’s your updated prescription. You can get them at the pharmacy on the first floor. And this is my card,” She handed the items to Vicky who accepted them immediately, “Do not hesitate to call me for anything.”
“Thank you.”
They said their goodbye, after which Katie and Vicky exited the Doctor’s office.
“I like her so much and I am glad you are in good hands,” Kathie said.
“I like her too. I feel safe with her.”
“Do you want us to get lunch before going back to the office?”
“I am not hungry but I have drugs to take so yes, I don’t mind.”
“We became friends after you had Sophie so I don’t know much. Was your pregnancy with Sophie this smooth,”
“Not really! I was always falling sick but I guess it was pretty normal because that was my first pregnancy.”
“But with this, I only feel nauseous in the mornings.”
“I am glad this little one is taking it easy on you.”
“I’m glad about it also.”
“You have done so well with Sophie. I have no doubt you are going to be a great mommy again.”
“You really know what to say to lift up my spirit.”
The duo proceeded to the pharmacy to get Vicky’s prescription, after which they exited the hospital. They were a couple of steps away from the parking lot when they sighted at masculine figure standing by the door of the driver’s seat of Victoria’s car with folded arms, he had his shades on, and his hair was neatly styled.
“You gotta be kidding me!” Victoria said with gritted teeth, stopping in her tracks.
Kathie was forced to stop too. “Who the hell is that?”
“Greg!”
“I told Gabriel to instruct the securities to stop following me the moment Oscar went back to California but it seems I might have to tell him about this so I can have my guards back.”
“I knew he was stalking me to know I was pregnant. Thank goodness I was wise enough not to attack people in my circle yet.”
“I’m going to teach him a lesson.” Kathie was about to resume her steps when Vicky stopped her by holding her hand.
“No. I will deal with him.” She handed her handbag to Kathie and fiercely but forcefully made her way towards her car where Greg stood, waiting for her.
Everything happened so fast that even Greg didn’t see it coming. Before he said a word, Vicky’s hand landed really hard against his cheek.
“What the….?” He said in shock but she stopped him.
“What right do you think you have to stalk me?”
