Mom agreed.Denver and I just sat on the couch looking at everyone getting excited and mumbling about going to the saloon and shopping. They are even planning without consulting me. They are all walking back and forth in front of us. My parents and some of our relatives are here, including the Andersons' . Sadly, my big bro has work and probably in the middle of the sea right now. His family is here though. Denver is so happy when he heard that I am going to propose to his pet's doctor. It is been a while that they didn't meet. Denver is a teenager now and sadly his pet, Sam, has already passed away. Now, he turned his attention to gadgets. He said, gadgets don't die on you.

Gracelyn's POV Now, we are officially together. I still have an unfinished contract in Australia so I need to go back. Greg understands but he said that it should be my last contract. I plan on staying in Australia with him but he can't leave his work here. I also loved my work in Australia but I guess one of us needs to give way. He will be the head of the house and will be the one to provide for our family so I decided to not renew my contract abroad and have him develop his career here. I need to give my full support to him because that is what wife is for."Three months is so long". Greg grunts."You've waited for four years so why not wait for another three months? Besides, we are already engaged.""I will be missing you dearly". he pouted."Me too. But I need to go back"."Fine. Promise me, when you come back.

Gracelyn's POV"I noticed something about you since you came here". Agnes told me while we were eating breakfast."What?" I curiously asked her."Are you pregnant?"I looked at her and tried to think when is my last menstration. My eyes went wide when I remember that I didn't have my menstruation for the past two months.I leave her behind and went to the pharmacy to buy a pregnancy test kit. I went to the lavatory and wait inside the cubicle. When I feel urinating, I immediately bring out the kit. This is the longest one minute of my life. I nervously waited for the line to appear. Two lines appeared.I don't know if I will feel happy or not. I am not ready for this. I know we did it without protection but I doubt my credibility of taking care of a child. I paced back and forth. I don't know if I should tell Greg or not yet."Gracelyn, are you okay?" Agnes came in the comfort room.I went out of the cubicle and showed her the kit.She hugged me and smiled widely."Congratulations".I

Agnes scolded me as soon as open my eyes."IThey called me and I couldn't just ignore the calling. I'm a nurse Agnes. It is my duty.""I know what a nurse duty is Gracelyn. I am also a nurse but please don't make the same mistake that I did."I looked t her confused. They same.mistake she did?"I was also pregnant before, with Resty's child, of course.

Nurse Gracelyn, why didn't you tell the hospital that you are pregnant? Didn't you know that if something bad happens to you here the hospital is partly at fault? It would ruin the hosputal's image you know.""I know that sir.
