My husband had a vasectomy, yet two months later, I got pregnant. He called me a traitor, left me for another woman… but he had no idea that the biggest shock was waiting for him in the ultrasound room.

Paula flinched.

I sat up slowly, wiping the gel from my belly with shaking hands.

For the 

first time since Diego had placed his coffee cup down and looked at me like garbage, I felt my spine straighten.

I looked at him.

“You left me for her before asking one doctor one question.”Monitor Vitals

Diego opened his mouth.

Closed it.

Paula’s eyes flicked between us.

Then the second shock arrived.

Dr. Salinas turned the screen slightly.

“There is one more thing.”

My heart jumped.

I grabbed the edge of the examination table.

“What?”

She softened immediately.

“The baby’s heartbeat is strong. But I need to show you something else.”Baby registry service

Diego muttered, “What now?”

The doctor moved the probe slowly.

A second dark shape appeared beside the first.

My mind did not understand it at first.

Then I saw another tiny flicker.

Another rhythm.
