Rebirth Into My Second Chance

The medical record didn't have a single word about my pregnancy.

My hands started to tremble uncontrollably as I placed the file on the bed and curled into myself, knees to chest.

So, was the pain of parting too much last time that this time around, he didn't want to be my child?

"You..." Max started to say something, but as I looked up at him, my eyes blurred with tears, my lips trembling downwards, he stopped himself.

Silence enveloped the room.

"Could you give me a moment alone, please?"

Max frowned slightly but turned and left, giving me the space I needed.

I should have thanked him. After all, he was the one who ended up saving me.

No sooner had he left than I forced myself up, intending to head to the maternity ward for another check-up. Was it possible that I was indeed not pregnant? Last time, by this phase, I was definitely expecting. And in 6088, my body felt like it had been through a wringer, aching all over.
