Chapter 67: Chapter 67
Valeria went to her room, and she suddenly felt dizzy. She slowly went to sit on the bed, then she rubbed her temples with both hands.
"What's wrong with me?" She muttered to herself.
She felt the urge to throw up, and she rushed to the bathroom. She dropped to her knees and threw up in the toilet.
She coughed loudly, then she stood up, she went to the sink and she rinsed her mouth with water, then she brushed her teeth again.
"What's wrong with me?" She asked herself.
She placed a palm on her head to feel her temperature, and it was normal.
The urge to throw up came again and she rushed to the toilet and threw up in it. When she was done, she stood up, and she brushed her teeth again.
This time, she felt scared, she couldn't tell what was wrong with her, and it was beginning to scare her.
"I should go see Madam Shiella about this. I think I need to see a doctor."
She left her room, then she went upstairs to Shiella's room. She passed by Ergon's door. She wanted to go see him, but she fought against that urge.
She went to Shiella's room and she placed a knock on the door.
"Come in." She heard Shiella say from inside.
Valeria opened the door, and she went in.
She met Shiella wiping her face with a handkerchief, there was also a photo on her lap.
"Ma'am Shiella, are you okay?" Valeria asked, the concern very visible in her voice.
Shiella sniffed, then she immediately comported herself.
"Yes dear, I'm fine." She smiled.
"What brings you here dear?" She asked.
Valeria went quiet, she didn't know if she should tell Ma'am Shiella or just let it be, she didn't seem in a good mood, and she also wouldn't want to bother her with her problems.
"Come on Valeria, you can tell me anything, please." Shiella smiled. Valeria sighed.
"Well, ma'am, the thing is, I don't feel so good," Valeria said.
Shiella furrowed her brow, then she stood up and went to meet Valeria.
"What's wrong, are you sick?" Shiella asked, feeling her temperature.
"I think so," Valeria replied.
"I was thinking of going to see a doctor."
"Of course dear, you should do that, please, go tell the driver to take you to a hospital, and get a check up, so we'll know what's wrong with you," Shiella said.
"Thank you ma'am, I'll go now."
"Alright dear, I'm sorry I can't come with you." Shiella said sadly.
"Oh no, please don't be sorry," Valeria quickly said.
"I'll be fine, you already said the driver should take me there, that's more than enough." Valeria smiled.
"You're such an angel, hurry and go now." Shiella said, Valeria nodded, then she left.
Valeria went outside, and she met the driver. She told him what Shiella said, and he was more than willing to drive her to the hospital.
They both got into the car, and the driver drove off.

City Hospital...
Valeria sat in the doctor's office, impatiently waiting for the doctor to come attend to her.
The door opened, and the doctor finally came in.
"Pardon me dear, I'm so sorry for keeping you waiting." She said as she went to sit down.
"There's no problem." Valeria smiled.
"So, what's the problem?"
"I don't feel so good, I've been feeling dizzy, and I also keep throwing up." Valeria explained.
The doctor furrowed her brow.
"You feel dizzy, and you also keep throwing up." She repeated. Valeria nodded.
"Okay honey, let's not jump into any conclusion yet, we'll run some tests on you and see what's wrong." The doctor said, silently praying that her suspicions weren't correct, because Valeria was too young to be pregnant.
"Okay doctor."
"Come with me please." The doctor said, she stood up, and she left her office, with Valeria trailing behind her.

Half an hour later...
Valeria sat in the waiting room, waiting for her test results.
A nurse walked up to her.
"Excuse me, are you Valeria?"
"Yes, that's me."
"Alright, the doctor would like to see you in her office." The nurse said.
"Thank you." Valeria replied, she stood up and went back to the doctor's office.
"Please, take a seat." The doctor said, and Valeria went to sit down.
The doctor didn't say anything, she only kept staring at Valeria.
Valeria, who was beginning to feel uncomfortable, couldn't help but ask the doctor.
"W...what's the matter, doctor?" She stuttered. The doctor sighed deeply.
"I really don't know how to put this. Where are your parents?" The doctor asked.
"Uhm...I just have my mom, my dad passed away, and my mom should be at work right now."
"Please doctor, can you just tell me what's wrong with me already." Valeria said impatiently, her heart was literally beating so fast.
"Dear, your test results are out, and..." The doctor trailed.
"And what?" Valeria asked. She wasn't ready for the answer, but she still needed to know.
"You're two weeks pregnant." The doctor announced.
Valeria's jaw dropped in shock, she couldn't believe her ears.
Suddenly, she burst into laughter, surprising the doctor.
The doctor stared at her in confusion. She couldn't tell what was fun.
"You're kidding right, this is a joke, I mean, how can I be pregnant, how..." She trailed off.
Her mind suddenly went to Ergon. Yes, they had been having sex for sometime now, and whenever they had sex, it was unprotected, they didn't use any protection, and that was when it also became clear to her that she was due to see her period, but it didn't come, and she had brushed it off, thinking it was a late flow.
But no, this was no late flow, this was pregnancy, she was pregnant, she was carrying Ergon's baby.
"Ahhhhh..." She screamed in shock.
