Capítulo 80: It's a girl

Jason Davenport

Everyone in the waiting room stood to their feet when the doctor walked in.

The only thing I could hear was the beating of my heart as I waited for the doctor to update us.

He glanced at each of us and then cleared his throat. "Who's the father?"

Before any one could protest, I moved forward. "I am."

The death stares from Adrian and Mel's friends pierced my back but I held my ground. No one uttered a word.

The doctor finally took off his mask and smiled. "It's a girl!"

Everyone gave a sigh of relief in unison, which quickly turned into a cheer. Amelia's grandmother slumped into her chair and began to sob. Adrian signed some words to her which probably made her feel better because she began to laugh.

"Would you like to see the baby?" The doctor asked me.

I wiped my sweaty palms. I was going to face Amelia again after so many months. I didn't know what I was going to say.

But I nodded.
