Lying on the examination table, Wendy looked at her husband's worried face.
The doctor scanned her abdomen, trying to determine the size of the tumour.
They saw the look of disbelief register on the doctor's face.
"It's bad news" they thought.
"I don't know how to tell you this" the doctor said quietly,
"you're pregnant!"
Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

Oh dear! I sometimes wonder whether some women would think that was worse news than any other diagnosis would be.
ReplyDeleteMy 55 are here.
Well done!
ReplyDeleteI have heard some stories of women who did not know they were pregnant until their water broke.
I think you're right AJ, but I think for this couple the news will be welcome. :)
ReplyDeleteI knew someone who that happened to Beach!
I knew someone that this happened to also.
ReplyDeleteAnd just how old is Wendy?

ReplyDelete""I don't know how to tell you this" the doctor said quietly,
ReplyDelete"you're pregnant!"
