MORNING CAME AND WANDA had now been getting examined by a doctor to find out if she had actually been pregnant as they thought. The married couple were both excited yet nervous as they waited for an answer.
"Hmm. Hmm. Yep! Definitely pregnant." Dr. Stan says as he stands to his feet.
Wanda chuckled nervously. "Well, that much we figured."
"It's just kinda taken us by surprise," James admits to the doctor. "It's just kinda, suddenly. Quite, suddenly wasn't it? I mean, practically overnight. I mean—how did this happen?" he asks genuinely confused.
"You see, when a man and a woman love each other very much—" The Doctor started off
"—Well, we're just tickled pink, or blue," Wanda says standing to her feet.
The Doctor hummed. "You're at about four months now. Is that right?"
Wanda nodded as James shook his head.
"I thought as much." The Doctor continued. "We let the little ladies keep tabs on their growing babies with fruit. Makes it simple for them. At four months, the fetus is about as big as a pear. At five months, a papaya. Six, grapefruit. Seven, pineapple. Eight, honeydew."
James nodded. "Hypothetically speaking, what size fruit would it be at, say, hmm, 12 hours?"
"12 hours?"
"Well, I think this line of questioning is fruitless." The wife chuckled motioning the Doctor out
But James wasn't done talking. "Well, hypothetically speaking, should we be concerned?" he asks.
"Hypothetically speaking, every new father-to-be gets nervous." The Doctor says patting James on the back.
James huffed. "Nervous isn't the word, Mr.Doctor do there goes your theory—"
"James—why don't you see the Doctor out?" Wanda suggests, knowing her husband would've gotten a little snarky.
The man tightly smiled. "Good idea. Yes. Thank you so much for dropping by, Dr. Nielson."
"Well, I'm just glad you caught me in time. I'm taking the wife on vacation this afternoon." The Doctor chuckled
"Oh! Have a nice holiday!" James paused before turning around. "Hey, Herb!"
