When her baby is born, Claire is absolutely over the moon. She finally has her perfect little angel and nothing can ruin this moment for her. But when the doctor brings the baby to basic testing a few moments later, he notices something when the baby stretches that makes his jaw drop. He immediately knew he had seen this before.
How will he break the news to poor Claire…?
When carrying the crying newborn baby to the test department, the doctor could not help but think. “How did this poor woman get herself into this situation? A lifestyle like this brings so many risks with it. How could this be worth it?”
When putting the baby down, it finally stops crying a bit and the doctors get a chance to inspect him a but closer. But it isn’t until the baby lifts his arms a bit when stretching that the doctor sees it. He immediately knows what he is looking at and freezes in his tracks…
His breath sticks as he mumbles to himself “This can’t be true...”. Leaving the baby in the care of a nurse, he rushes back to tell the waiting parents. They have to know immediately…
But to better understand what is happening, a bit of backstory is required.
Claire was twenty-three, she was young, fit, and beautiful. She had just graduated from college and was living with her parents. Although Claire was considered very intelligent and hardworking. Her parents were growing frustrated with her daily. You see Claire had one habit that her parents wished she would change, it was so bad that they had considered kicking her out of the house.
Claire had a very wild and active party lifestyle. She had gotten into the habit in college and had not stopped since. Claire spent her evenings in clubs and was heavily intoxicated, a big part of this lifestyle was men. Since Claire was gorgeous she never lacked attention, or a new man to spend the night with.
However, all that comes with consequences. There was a risk of treading on dangerous behavior, and Claire was about to be faced with the repercussions for her behavior. Claire’s week had gone as usual, she went to work in the mornings and clubbed at night. However, she was about to get the shock of her life...
Claire stumbled out of bed on Tuesday morning. Her head hurt and her stomach felt even worse. She could feel the pressure build in her throat as she ran to the bathroom to throw up. Claire hated the feeling but it was familiar to her, she got like that when she was hungover. However, ironically, she had not been drinking the night before.
Claire spent another fifteen minutes in the bathroom until she eventually felt fine enough to head downstairs for breakfast. Claire was immediately greeted by her mother commenting on how pale she looked. Claire sighed and relayed her symptoms to her mom who listened intently. Claire watched as her mother turned white as she listed the symptoms.
“What's wrong?” Claire urged, she felt self-conscious now. Her mom was a registered nurse and had been in the profession for more than two decades. Her reaction to Claire’s symptoms caused the young woman to worry. Finally, her mom spoke up. She asked Claire to get a pregnancy test done.
Claire was nervous and peed on the tests like her mother instructed. The results were frightening, Claire mom was right, she was pregnant! Claire sat opposite her parents who stared at her in silence, they were both waiting for her to answer the question they had placed. Who was the father? The problem, Claire wasn't so sure…
