Chapter 209
Chapter: 209 “I'm sorry, doctor. I’ve made my decision. I’m not having the procedure. | want to keep the baby.” @ The doctor asked Ariana to confirm, “Have you really thought it over? A hospital is not a place for making flippant decisions.”
Ariana nodded. She gently stroked her belly before saying firmly, “Yes, I’m going to keep it and raise the child myself. Sorry for wasting your time.”
The doctor didn’t say anything anymore. She lowered her head and made notes on Ariana’s medical record. “Since you have a higher risk of miscarriage, | will prescribe you some tocolytic medication. Remember to take it on time and pay attention to your diet. Make sure you're eating more nutritious food, and not eating anything too spicy.”
“Okay, thank you.” Ariana took the note from the doctor and headed to the pharmacy to collect the medication.
The sun was setting as she left the hospital, the sky was glowing, and the evening air was chilly. Ariana wrapped her coat tightly and walked slowly toward the nearby bus stop. ©
Looking at the hustle and bustle of the streets, she felt herself relax. It was as if all her troubles had gone. As she was lost in thought, a young kid ran toward her, and knocked her bag off her shoulder.
“Oh, I’m sorry.” The boy apologized and bent down to pick the bag up.
“It's okay. I'll get it.” Ariana smiled at him. She couldn’t blame the boy and let him go.
Her bag was big, the contents of which had spilled everywhere.
She quickly put everything back, including lipstick, a thermos cup, an umbrella, and her identification cards. When she noticed the craft paper bag, her heart ached.
This was the draft divorce agreement she had written when she couldn't get to sleep last night. When she had made the decision to keep the baby, she made her mind up to get a divorce.
Theodore wouldn't bear this baby’s existence, so Ariana would prefer to raise the child herself.
Sarah was becoming more and more popular now, and her album would probably be a hit. Ariana could easily win the bet and get Jasper out of the Anderson Group.
After all that was settled, Ariana would leave Eleymond, and go to a place where no one could find her. She would then raise the baby alone. Everything would be fine. She’d have her own family, and live a life with her child.
Ariana took a deep breath and forced herself to put her sadness aside, After figuring out what had been troubling her for so long, she should really be happy.
Ariana composed herself, zipped up her bag and continued to walk to the bus stop.
As she passed by a park, she saw a street performer singing and playing the guitar. It was a combination of classic and country blues styles. Each note was full of joy.
Ariana stopped and listened for a while. She searched through her bag for some change to give the singer.
The singer was grateful for the money, which would cover his food for the day. He walked over to her enthusiastically, and said, “Miss, you look sad. Did you have an argument with your boyfriend?”
