cHAPTER 4

1st Person's POV

I don’t know what I should say or react now to what I hear. Am I really ready for anything to happen? There are too many questions and I think that could be the consequences of my decision. What if I get pregnant? will I just let the child in my womb not recognize me as his mother?

But I don't want him to be like me. But, I wouldn't have a problem like this if I had just listened to Ren. By the way, did I think he would do it this way? Where is he now?

while I was just looking at him and not really paying attention to the rest of what he said, the door suddenly opened and the woman in formal attire entered. Wearing a black pencil skirt, white polo and a black fit suit. she's holding an envelope and she's looking straight at me as she walks in.

"I'm late. Sorry for that." He turned to the doctor and she just smiled. "Miss Ziaren Corvado?" He asked me with glaring eyes.

“Yes,” I implied.

"You know what you're doing here right?"

"Yes,"

"Before everything, I am Francine Marcial. The secretary," He held out his hand to me and I accepted. "I am here to clarify things and inform some things or more like declaring some rules upon this transaction. But, first of all, I would like to ask you.are you really, whole-heartedly willing want to do this? Because if not so, you can go. ”She frankly speaks.

"Can I have a second please?" I said goodbye as he stopped and eventually nodded as well. "Excuse me," I stood up and went out, holding my cellphone I dialed Renee's number.

"Yes, Ms. Corvado? How can I help-"

"I'm here right now at the Southville Fertility Center Suarez. I passed. And we're currently discussing about my first session!"

A moment of silence happened on the other line until I heard its breathing.

"WHAT ?! How did that happen ?!the files I provided are missing! Hind- "I never finished him again and turned off the call. Nothing will happen if I just listen to his complains. He can't do anything anymore.

I went back inside as I composed my self and sat down. they turned to look at me until Francine placed the papers from the envelope in front of me.

"The decision is yours, you will sign it and you have to take the responsibility of your decision. And if not, then the door is open." francine said with no visible emotion on her face.

I have not read any of the contents of the papers in front of me and there is nothing in me that you just signed one by one. when I returned the ballpen to him and the papers turned his forehead furrowed and began to speak.

"The company will pay you whether you'll get pregnant or not. However, you will receive more when you get pregnant and half when you don't. You still won't lose.once you get pregnant, you'll have to live to a place that is assigned for you to stay at so, you'll get monitored. Everything you need will be provided there even your personal needs. You'll stay there until the day of your due. and once the contract ended or a months after you delivered the baby, you'll leave, just with all of your money. This is more like an early warning Ms. Corvado and don't be tense, that's part of the deal. Are we clear Ms. Corvado? "

"Y-yes," I answered weakly. I can just hear what's going to happen, I'm already sweating and I can't seem to get over it. I just think it's for me and the future. I need it and I shouldn't be discouraged, now that I've been through a lot?

"I think I'm estimating that you'll be given five hundred thousand dollars. That's a party fee when you're not pregnant, what more when you're already pregnant?" She said, which I can slightly sense a sarcastic tone.

"What company is s-" I didn't finish my question when it answered.

"That part is confidential Ms. Corvado, and that's something you should never know and find out. Your part here is to carry a baby not to seek the identity of our company. That's all for now." he took his belongings and now I just also noticed that it never sat down and seemed accustomed to stand up overnight by air heels.

"I'm sorry," I replied. I didn’t know I shouldn’t know. Does it mean that I won't even know the father of my future child?

I shuddered at the thought and turned back to Francine.

"If you also think you'll recognize the father of the one you're taking you're wrong. I'll bet you'll never recognize him, I know that. He won't do that," she grinned and walked out.

when I got back to the office I was floating and I didn't know what records I had saved. I think too much and it affects my work as well. Maybe I was just surprised by what happened and I didn't expect that.

I should not be discouraged.

when I got home I was not surprised when I saw my bestfriend sitting on my bed. He stood up when he saw me and pulled me in and made me sit on the bed and sit next to me as well.

"What happened?" This question I answered with a forced smile.

"I have a first session this week." I replied that he was surprised.

"Don't tell me you signed a deal?"

"Then I won't tell you that I signed." I blankly replied.

She opened her mouth and didn't know what to say. "W-why? Why did you- how did this happen? Your files are missing." He wondered at the promise. "I'm sorry."

i assuredly smile. "Don't be. It's my decision, what are you like for me to sign a death slip for what you're doing,"

I told him everything that had happened and he just listened intently. he still raised his eyebrows all night and he didn't seem to like what he heard so he just reminded me of many words even over and over again. She can't do anything because it has already happened, and the least that she could do is to support and help me get through this.

after four days I went to the Fertility Center to conduct the first session.

"This first session is like a basic session for Fertilization. Only a few tests will be done on you and no injecting will take place, don't worry.we'll inform you after we get the results and depending on the result if you don't need a second session and if we could proceed with the Operation. "Doctora Herrero said as I lay down on a single bed that I could see pregnant women lying on. on TVI just nodded in response and watched him do what he was doing, he was accompanied by a female nurse.

I'm going to get pregnant. That's what's been going through my head all week, I'm not sure it's still nervous. I never thought I would get pregnant this early, just in case.

he didn't do much and was just asking questions and it was like he was just scanning other parts of my body.

When he finished, he sent me to the office and waited there to get the results. I was currently sitting when I got bored and tried to look across the office. It’s big and there are paintings on the walls, Doctora seems to love it. And she also seems to love Purple because that’s what I see most of the color here in the room. purple is also the color of his ballpen and mug sitting on the desk. When I landed there I looked at the papers that were lying there.

My heart skipped a beat as I saw the first page of filed papers there. I don't know but I held my breath for five seconds when I read what was written on the paper.

'Ruego Business Corporation'

Cont.

Do they also have a connection to this Fertility Center?

I found out and looked at the papers one by one and confirmed that it wasn't the only company stacked there.

I breathed a sigh. What is it I'm thinking? Of course this Hospital and many connections.

I sat down and waited for the Doctor when he arrived with a big smile as if whatever he was going to say would make me nervous.

"Ms. Corvado, your results are greater than I'd expected," she said while looking at the papers she was holding.

I did not speak but just waited for what he would say next. And it left me dumbfounded.

"We can start the operation next week," he added with a smile.
