She's Positive

I am feeling nauseous and I’m not even half way to my room! My room is on the other side and I’m way too far to reach it, and I can feel that I’m about to throw up anytime now. I opened the door on the first room I reached and didn’t even bother knocking. I ran to the room’s bathroom and started vomiting on the toilet.

“WHAT THE HELL SAVANNAH?!” I heard Sylvester yell.

Oh, I think it’s his room. I didn’t face him and continued vomiting. I didn’t even saw him when I entered. After a few minutes, I stopped throwing up. I stood up and was startled when I saw Sylvester.

“Why are you standing there like a ghost?”

“Why did you barge in my room without even knocking?”

“As you can see, I’m dying.” I stepped out and saw a woman on his bed, half naked but covering herself with a blanket. “It’s early in the morning but you’re already in action.”

“Did you just get home? Are you sick?” I turned to Sylvester and gave him a judging look.

“When are you going to stop messing around with women?”

“Are you sick? Why did you vomit that much?” He is trying to change the subject and avoid the topic. Oh well, my brothers, except Skyler, are womanizers. Actually, even my grandfather and father are womanizers.

“Okay, just don’t forget to practice safe sex.” I turned and looked at the woman who’s at my brother’s bed. “Rethink your decisions, girl. You are more than just a sex figurine. Even if he’s my brother, I can’t tolerate him being a womanizer. You’ll be one of his toys for a while and be instantly a garbage after. So, choose wisely.”

“Why do you have to say that?!” Sylvester is obviously annoyed. I can feel him by the tone of his voice. Stefano and him took the genes of my father and grandfather, and I sometimes regret not being a better older sister to avoid them ending like this.

“I’m leaving. I hope you start to grow up and be a man. Sorry for the disturbance by the way.”

I closed the room’s door and left.

Sometimes, I just can’t swallow the men in my family being like this. I am a woman and it disgusts me living in one roof with men like my dad, grandpa, Stefano and Sylvester. Like I said, I somehow regretted at one point that I didn’t to my best as an older sister to stop Vester and Stefano turning to be like this.

Anyway, it’s been two days since the red-carpet incident and ever since that day, I’ve been on the gossip pages. I am still unwell and I vomit every morning so I decided to visit the doctor once and for all.

I drove by myself to the hospital. I didn’t tell anyone, not even mom or Skyler, about my visit to the hospital. I don’t want them to worry. I told no one about my condition because I know that when the words spread, I’ll be fucked up.

I arrived at the hospital and they attended to me immediately after confirming my appointment. I am now waiting inside the doctor’s office after doing some test. Actually, I am anxious, really anxious. I don’t know but I started looking back on everything I did thinking a bunch of what ifs. I suddenly started hoping and praying that I am not terminally ill.

Few minutes later, the doctor finally arrived. Thank goodness! I thought I’ll have to wait here forever! She sat on her swivel chair and smiled at me.

“Sorry to keep you waiting miss Savannah Harris.”

“No worries.”

“I have your test results but I want to make sure not to misdiagnose you. Can you explain me again the symptoms you’ve been experiencing the past few days?”

“I throw up in the morning. My headaches became more frequent and I also feel dizzy often. I get tired quickly unlike before. I also feel sore in some parts of my body and I think my appetite became bigger, I don’t know if that’s essential information but yeah. Also, my sense of smell became more sensitive.” She scans the documents she’s holding which made me more nervous. “Why? Is it bad? Am I terminally ill? Am I dying?” She looks at me and chuckled while shaking her head.

“No, no, you can relax. You are not terminally ill and you are not dying.”

“Then what’s wrong with me?”

“Well, according to the test results; you are pregnant.” My brain stopped working. I am dead serious. It’s like it suddenly malfunctioned after hearing the doctor’s words. Everything around me stopped. My world stopped. “We need to conduct an ultrasound to know how long your pregnancy is and confirm everything—”

“Wait, just—just give me a minute.”

I.Am.Fucking.Pregnant.

I am pregnant? I am pregnant. I AM PREGNANT?!

“I AM PREGNANT?!” Now it started to process. I am pregnant... and the only man I had sex with is Cameron. I AM PREGNANT WITH MY BODYGUARD’S BABY?! I AM PREGNANT WITH A BODYGUARD’S BABY?!

“Is there a problem miss Savannah?”

“N-No, not at all.” Yeah, the is no problem because I just fucked up big time. I can’t believe this is happening. I mentioned safe sex to Vester earlier but—FUCK!

“Should we proceed to ultrasound—”

“D-Doc, I’m sorry but can we keep everything a secret. Pretend like you didn’t examine me today. Don’t tell anyone about the results of my test. I’ll pay you extra if you want, just keep this from anyone. You know, me and my family has to discuss about this in terms of safety so I don’t want to, you know, put my baby in danger.”

“You don’t have to worry about that Miss Harris. There’s doctor and patient confidentiality so you don’t have to worry about this getting out to the public.”

I am now inside my car and I’m spacing out. I did an ultrasound and confirmed that I am indeed pregnant. To be exact, I am one month pregnant. Aside from the fact that Cameron is the only man I slept with, the timeline also proves that he is the father of my child.

I was about to start my car but I saw Cameron coming out from the hospital with a girl. I can’t see the girl’s face but I’m sure the guy is Cameron.

What is he doing here? Who’s that girl? Don’t tell me... he has a girlfriend?

This is really fucked up. I just shook my head and started driving back to the mansion.

After few hours, it’s dinner time. I am silently eating my food and I am still spacing out. I feel like I can’t hear anything being said in the dinning table. I just came back to my senses when Vester, who’s sitting beside me, nudge my arms.

“What?” I asked him confused. I turned to the others and saw them staring at me.

“I’ve been calling you for several times now, Savannah,” my grandfather said.

“Did you go deaf or what?” my dad sarcastically asked.

“I’m talking about the scene you made on the red-carpet event two days ago. What were you—” I didn’t let him finish and just stood up. I know what they were about to say, and I am not at the right state of my mind to listen to their bullshit.

“I’m going to rest. I lost my appetite.” They called my name but I ignored them and just went back to my room and rested.
