Chapter 2: Check-up
Three weeks as passed since Barbie proposed to Julia. They have been living on a little cloud since she said ‘’yes’’. Although, they didn’t chose when they will get married and didn’t tell Joe, Norrie, Carolyn, Sam and James Jr. about it. They decided keep it secret for now. Only Barbie’s dad knows that they’re engaged, but he lives so far that he can’t tell anyone. Julia was in the living room, reading a book that Barbie gave to her as a gift. Since she’s home and not working, because she felt like she needed a break after the dome, she’s been relaxing and taking care of herself. Barbie is working at the nearest police station as a volunteer. He likes helping people in need. When he came home that day he went to the living room and sat right beside her. ‘’Hey, gorgeous! ’’ ‘’ Hi, Mr. Babara, how was your day? ‘’ she said to him while closing her book. ‘’My day has been good, but you know what I missed the most? ‘’ ‘’I maybe have an idea…’’ She sat on him and kissed him. ‘’Was it that? ’’ ‘’Kind of, but it was more that… ‘’ He put her back on the couch, went over her and kissed her with an intense power that she couldn’t resist to him. The next thing she knew was that she was in his arm and Barbie was walking all around the house, kissing her everywhere. ‘’Barbie, we can’t! ‘’ Julia stopped him. ‘’Why? What’s wrong?’’ ‘’I’m feeling not good and I’m not in the mood for this.’’ ‘’Really, how are you feeling? Are you hurt? Is it the same symptom as the other day? Do you want to see a doctor, like Sam? Tell me baby, I want you to be perfectly healthy! ‘’ said Barbie all panicked. ‘’I’m sure this is nothing, but yes it’s kind of the same thing as the other day.’’ ‘’Do you have an idea of where you could have caught that virus or flu? ‘’ ‘’No! ‘’ said Julia all tired and exhausted. ‘’I’m calling Sam. I want him to check on you, even if you don’t want to. You’re my future wife and I want you to feel good.’’ ‘’Barbie, don’t. I don’t want to bother him with this. He got his life, we’ve got ours.’’ ‘’Julia, don’t tell me what to do. We go to the hospital to see him or he’s coming here, it’s you choice.’’ ‘’Alright, call him. But I disagreed on this procedure. I’m not that sick.’’ Barbie grabbed the phone, went outside and called Sam. ‘’Hi, Sam, it’s Barbie.’’ ‘’Oh, hi Barbie! Long time without any news, how’s life? ‘’ ‘’Pretty awesome, listen I’ve something to ask you.’’ ‘’Yes sure, go ahead!’’ ‘‘Can you come do a medical check on Julia? ’’ ‘’Sure, when? Today? ’’ ‘’Today, would be amazing.’’ ‘’Alright, let’s see. I could come right now, because I’ve got nothing to do tonight. Would it be alright with you? ’’ ‘’Sounds amazing, so we’ll see you in 20 minutes? Do you need anything? Want me to do something?’’ ‘’No, but tell me, is she alright?’’ ‘’She tells me that she is, but she’s tired all the time, doesn’t eat much, has nausea and has trouble sleeping.’’ ‘’Great, thanks Barbie.’’ ‘’Thanks to you Sam, we will be in our bedroom, just come in and come see us. See you.’’ Barbie came back in; Julia was waiting for him in the kitchen. Barbie grabbed her hand and kissed her on the forehead. He also told her that Sam is on his way here and that he wanted her to get better. Barbie also kissed her and holds her in his arms so tight that she couldn’t go anywhere. He told her that they should go in their bedroom because he told Sam that they would be there when he arrives. They went upstairs and they both sat on the bed waiting for Sam. ‘’Julia, I love you more than anything on this world. I only want you to get better so don’t be pissed off about me because I called Sam to do a check.’’ ‘’I’m not pissed. I just didn’t want to do the check because I know how to take care of myself.’’ said Julia on a frustrated tone. ‘’I know all that and I don’t doubt that you know how to take care of yourself. Sam is only there to tell you what you can do and help you. Do it for me, after I’ll know what to do and what you have.’’ '' Is anybody here? ‘’ asked Sam. ‘’We’re up here Sam.’’ Screamed Barbie. Sam took the stair and came in Julia and Barbie’s room. Julia was sitting on the bed while Barbie helped Sam to install his things around him. He proceeded to a check-up with his eyes; skin color, eyes color, muscle reaction and reflexes. Everything looked fine. ‘’Barbie told me that you are tired all the time, doesn’t eat much, have nausea and have trouble sleeping. Is that true? ‘’ ‘’Yes it is Sir Dr. Sam. ‘’said Julia, making fun of Sam. ‘’When did it started? ‘’ '’Maybe, 2 days ago but I had something like that 3 weeks ago. ‘’ ‘’Did you do other tests? ‘’ ‘’No, I didn’t. I thought it was just a virus or flu. Is it worse than that? ‘’ ‘’I have an idea of what it might be but it can’t be sure, until you do a blood test.’’ ‘’That’s no way. I’m not doing a blood test.’’ Tell Julia to Sam. ‘’Julia’’ said Barbie, watching Julia with big eyes. ‘’What? I don’t do blood test. Is there anything else I can do? ‘’ ‘’Not really, you can also let the time go and you’ll see it soon.’’ ‘’I’ll see soon what? ‘’ Suddenly Barbie understood what Sam was talking about; he looked over Julia with a suspicious smile. ‘’Sam, can I talk to you in private? ‘’ asked Barbie. They both went out of the room. ‘’Is Julia pregnant? It’s the only thing I want to know.’’ ‘’This is the only thing that I could think of, right now and that fits to her symptoms. But it can’t sure until she do a blood test.’’ ‘’That’s an amazing news.’’ said Barbie. ’’Thanks Sam’’ ‘’ Congrats man! If it’s true, you’re going to be a dad.’’ They came back in the room. Sam packed his things and left their house. Julia was still there waiting for someone to explain to her, what’s happening with her. ‘’Julia, I’ve got something to tell you.’’ ‘’Go ahead; I’ve been waiting since you went out with Sam. Is it that bad?’’ ‘’No, it isn’t, but it depends on you right now. Sam thinks that the only thing that it could be is that you are pregnant. ‘’ Julia smiled so hard while holding her stomach. The emotions that she felt were so strong that she even started to cry. Laughing, crying, smiling and screaming, these are some of the emotions that went through her brain. ‘’Barbie, thanks for the check up and for everything you do for me. I’ll do the blood tests and everything to confirm that I’m really pregnant. Let’s keep it secret for now, just like we did for our engagement.’’ ‘’I’ll respect whatever you want baby. I’m lucky to have you and if you are pregnant, this is only a bonus point.’’ ‘’I love you Barbie! But the real question is; when this is happened? We’ve always been so careful since the…. Shit!!!’’ ‘’What, what’s wrong?’’ ‘’I think that it happened when we were under this crazy stupid thing. Do you think it could have affected the baby?’’ explain Julia all worried. ‘’Let’s hope that it didn’t affected it, for its own good and health.’’ ‘’Barbie, I’m scared… ‘’
