Mnie frowned. She noticed something was not right about this and called out to the nurse leading the way, “May I know if this is the way to the examination room?”
The nurse did not look back. She was wearing a face mask and sounded quite moody<b>. </b>The nurse pointed to the chair at the side, “I’ll register you first. Sit there and wait. Someone will be calling for you.”
She left for the counter after that. Mnie could not shake the unsettled feeling inside her. She looked at a few young women by her side. One of them was obviously pregnant.
Mnie hesitated before taking the seat. The moment she sat down, she heard quiet sobs.
She <b>turned </b>to look and <b>saw </b>a youngdy looking quite haggard as she mumbled, “Mommy is so sorry, <b>my </b>baby…”
Mnie was taken aback. After that, she heard the pregnant woman sigh bitterly.
It seemed that she could no longer take the atmosphere, so she started to chat up Mnie in a low voice, “You look pretty young. Why are you here for this surgery?”

Mnie instantly detected the sound of pity in her tone. She hesitated and was about to say
something when the counter suddenly called out her name.
She turned to look, and the unsettling feeling got even stronger.
Mnie turned back to look at the sighing woman and the other woman who was still sobbing quietly. She held back her fear and asked, “Is this where the amniocentesis is done?”
She had no idea how she finally walked out of there. The entire surgery floor was sealed up and had
<b>no </b>trace of sunlight.
There was no <b>one </b>else either, and only Mnie’s footsteps could be heard along the corridor.
When she walked past the elevator, she saw a woman lying on the bed looking pale. The white nket on her looked thin and light.
Mnie’s heart jumped. She could hardly breathe.
She did not dare to enter the elevator. She kept having the feeling that she would see those two women she had seen being wheeled out <b>in </b>beds.
Mnie could only go to the stairs and get out of there by climbing the stairs little by little.
When she finally got out, Mnie headed right out of the hospital. It was only then that she felt like she could breathe.
Her cold skin <b>could </b>now find some warmth <b>under </b>the sun.

Mnie did not look well, and she was almost translucent from looking so white.
She turned back to look at the hospital building. It now looked like a monster with its mouth wide
<b>open</b>.
“Abortion room.” The woman’s sobbing voice echoed in her ears, and Mnie felt goosebumps <b>all </b>
over.
She did not dare to imagine what could have happened if she had walked in without realizing what <b>that </b><b>ce </b>was.
Mnie trembled uncontrobly. She breathed hard while holding her hand to her chest.
A shadow loomed over her, and Mnie looked up. There was still fear on her face.
Eugene was standing in front of her. He was taken aback to see her expression.
Mnie maintained the same position as she stared at Eugene until he spoke up with some difficulty, “Are you done with the check–up?”
When he mentioned ‘check–up‘, the fear Mnie managed to suppress surfaced again. Her hoarse voice was almost inaudible. “What are you doing here?”
Mnie had passed by the counter when she walked out of there and had held back her fear to question the nurse. She was here to conduct amniocentesis. Why did she end up here?
The nurse pointed at the registration and said, “You’re Mnie Smith, right? Didn’t you make an appointment two days ago to inducebor?”
Mnie’s name was clearly written on the registration. There were her personal details as well.
Everything matched.

The only information that did not match was the column for the husband’s name. ‘Eugene Scott‘ was
written on it.
