On the weekend.
Emily insisted on accompanying me to the hospital for a check–up. She held my arm tightly, feeling a bit sad: “After you go back, I don’t know if I’ll have the chance to see you again.”
“How could there be no chance? As long as we’re both alive, we’ll definitely meet again! Besides, when my baby has their first–month celebration, you’d better come!”
“Oh, no matter what, as the baby’s godmother, I must accompany you for the check–up.”
couldn’t argue with her, so I had to let her come along.
In my heart, I prayed we wouldn’t run into James!
As a result, James came walking towards us, but he only glanced at me briefly before quickly walking towards the emergency room.
“That’s James!”

Emily was obviously very surprised.
I turned my face away: “Is it? I didn’t see.”
“What do you mean? You saw him before I did.”
Emily looked gossipy: “You’ve been broken up for over a year, you’re not still thinking about him, are you? Why don’t you tell him about your pregnancy and see how he reacts?”
“The baby is his.”
“What!? You!”
I calmly told Emily about what happened three months ago: “But he doesn’t believe it, so you don’t need to find him.”
Emily fell completely silent, hugging me comfortingly.
She sighed: “I never thought James would be such a jerk!”
I shook my head: “It’s not entirely his fault.”
After all, that night, I was half–willing.
There were many pregnant women coming for check–ups. Emily and I found a place to sit and wait, but Emily couldn’t sit still and wandered around.
She came back and told me: “Some pregnant women came very early, next time we should come earlier.”
I smiled, next time I should be doing check–ups at the hospital back home.
Ring ring ring!
A phone call came in, and Emily had to go back for overtime work.
She looked very apologetic: “Lily, I’m so sorry, my boss is really terrible!”
“It’s okay, I understand. Go quickly!”
I’ve encountered this kind of thing many times, even once when I had just fallen asleep and was called back for a meeting, too many times to
count.
The life of a working person is just bitter.
But soon, I’ll be free!
After waiting for more than an hour, it was finally my turn to go in for the check–up.
The doctor frowned, making me anxious.
“Doctor, what’s wrong?”
“Did you come for the check–up alone?”
“Yes, they’re all very busy.”
“No matter how busy, someone should take care of you and accompany you for prenatal check–ups. Because your situation is a bit special, if not careful, you could easily miscarry. The doctor sighed and shook his head.
My heart tightened, and I suddenly felt very panicked.
“I’m here:

James suddenly appeared.
