*Olivia*
My phone buzzed, and I was elated to see that it was Elena calling. Ever since the embryo transfer, I was so excited to find out if the pregnancy took that I spent every day just trying to distract myself from thinking about it.
“Hey, Elena!” I greeted her.
“Hi! Olivia, I have some news.”
My heart started pounding so hard that I thought I might pass out.
“Y–yes?” I managed to breathe out.
“My period is late!” she squealed.
Tears pricked at my eyes; this was amazing news. “It is?! Do you want to take a test today?”
“I’ve got one right here. I just wanted to call before taking it.”
I jumped up and down, my excitement couldn’t be contained. “Yes! Take it! Do you want me to stay on the line?”
She giggled. “Well, you stay on the phone, but I’m gonna leave the phone out here so you don’t have to listen to me pee.”
