Well, not a phone call that you wasn't expecting, but the phone call that confirms the future is about to change. Change for all the right (and maybe wrong) reasons. I suppose it's more of a peace of mind thing; I find it very difficult to believe you wouldn't think it was going to happen by not having a sexual relationship with someone. It certainly doesn't happen just by sharing the same flannel.
"So, have you had your lasagna yet?"
"No, it's still in the fridge."
"You should have it, it's lovely."
"Yes I will, when I break for lunch."
"Just to let you know I've been to the shops and picked up a test ... and I'm a bit confused. It says that if there is 1 horizontal line you are not pregnant, but if there is a vertical line going through the middle then you are." - Firstly focus, secondly visualise.
"Well, is there?"
"Erm, there's a very feint line. But I'm not sure if I'm just imagining it, and I'm wishing very hard for it to be there."
"Were there any lines there before you began?"
"No, there wasn't. But it's OK, I bought 2 tests."
"They're quite expensive, aren't they?"
"No, only £7.00 for a twin pack." Oh dear. Does that mean the other half is expecting us to have twins, or that I'm starting to count the pennies already?
"Well, just leave it for a few days and we'll check again."
"I've left it for 10 minutes, and I'm not sure if the line is getting more prominent."
"That's fine we'll try it again tomorrow."
"It says on the instructions that I should throw it away after 10 minutes." That's probably due to some Health & Safety issue with you holding a piece of plastic with your wee all over it. I do hope you've washed your hands before you went back to attending to other peoples bodily hair malfunctions.
"Save the other test, we'll try it later."
"I want this one to tell me."
"I've got a feeling we'll have to wait darling."
"OK, no problem. Any chance you can leave early tonight ...?"
