God's Plan

Jasmine
3 weeks later

I got up from my desk running to the restroom again.

I've started my IVF injections and the side effects were killing me.My worst ones were nausea and headaches.

I emptied my lunch into the toilet.I flushed and pulled out my travel toothbrush and brushed my teeth quickly.

"You okay?"One of my employees, Rhonda, asked at the sink

"Yeah Im fine."I nodded

"You sure?You've seemed a little off."She said

"You did IVF right?"I asked her

She was 45 and has a five year old son.

"I did.You're doing the shots?"She asked

I nodded."It's horrible."

"Oh honey just wait until you get pregnant."She chuckled

"I know it sucks right now..but it'll be well worth it Jasmine."She said

I nodded."I know.

"I hope it works out for you.If you have any questions Im happy to help."She said and left the restroom

I did as well and headed back to my office.

"Jas."I was called

I saw Oliver.He motioned me toward him.

"Can I talk to you?"He asked

I nodded and we went into my office.

"What's going on?The last couple of weeks you've been missing deadlines and late to meetings."He said

"Im sorry..Im just- Im going through some medical things and-

"You pregnant?"He asked

"You can't ask me that as my boss legally."I joked

He chuckled.

"Im going through IVF treatment and it's taking me a while to get used to the side effects."I said

"Oh wow..congratulations.If you need to take some time off that's fine.Jacob can sit through meetings."He said

"Oh no.That's not necessary-

"Ooh."I pinched my temples feeling dizziness take over

"Take off the rest of the week."He said

"Oliii."I groaned

"I don't wanna hear it."He said

"Fine."I said

"Can you...not tell Aub?"I asked lowly

"My lips are sealed."He nodded

"Thank you.I thought I would be fine working with him but..there's so many emotions involved it's hard to separate personal and business."I sighed

"I understand.He's a persistent guy and he loves you.He really does.He'll be fine though.Focus on you so we can have another OVO baby."He smirked

I chuckled."Will do."

He looked at his apple watch."Gotta go.I'll talk to you later."

I nodded."Bye!"

I called my assistant's desk and asked her to get me some more lunch since I just threw mine up.

I started to finish up my work for the day.

I heard a knock."Come in!"

"Your food."She said
