Nine

Alana

I woke up sweating profusely just like I have been doing for the past few weeks now , having the same dream over and over and still not knowing what it meant

I looked outside my open window and seeing it was still dark outside I looked up at the clock in my room and realized it was just a few minutes past three o' clock .

I went to my kitchen in my two bedroom apartment which I was able to afford from part of my savings after transferring it to an account Adrian opened for me in another name

I drank some water and tried to force myself back to bed by reading a novel because my usual check up was in the morning and I didn't want to go there looking like a zombie from not sleeping well .

And surprisingly it worked. I woke up a little before noon , and I was feeling more refreshed. I took my Bath, ate, dressed quickly and drove to the hospital in my official car as fast as possible as I was already a bit late for my scheduled appointment time .

I got to the hospital and went straight to the Obstetrician's office. I was immediately ushered into Doctor Kodivic's office, the same doctor who found out I was pregnant.

I knocked on the door and went in “Good morning Doctor”. He looked up from his table, smiled and said “it's noon already miss Alana it seems you woke up quite late today ” I immediately felt a bit embarrassed.

But laughed it off realizing he was intentionally teasing me “I did wake up late Doctor I haven't really been sleeping well for a while now”. He immediately became serious and said

“ Why? , What's wrong , are you feeling okay , for how long and why haven't you said anything before” if felt good knowing someone cared about me even more though it was only as a Doctor to patient type of caring it still felt good

“It's nothing serious Doctor have just been having the same nightmare and I tend to be unable to fall asleep after I wake you from it “ I replied him

He looked at me raised his eyebrows and said “oh it doesn't sound serious but you know you need sleep for you and your babies”

“I know doctor sleep is necessary for the well being of my babies ….. wait what” I suddenly replayed what he said in my head. I looked at him and he was smiling.

“Please sit Miss Alana and try not to get shocked so easily next time” that's when I realized I was already standing because of the shock.

I immediately sat down and said“well you shouldn't scare me like that either , and what do you mean babies ?

He brought out some pictures and said “this is the result of the ultrasound we did and we confirmed that you are pregnant with triplets but we couldn't really confirm the genders”

I didn't know when tears start streaming down my eyes till he touched me and said “why are you crying miss Alana , you are supposed to be happy I know it won't be easy without your partner but I know you will be fine “

I looked up at him and smiled “ no doctor this are tears of joy , I'm really happy , I can't wait to see my babies , and I don't care about their genders we will know when I give birth”

I took his hand and started shaking it saying “Thank you so much for this good news doctor , thank you” he let me do what I wanted and just kept smiling

I went through the normal check up and I was about to leave when he gave me a note with a number and an address on it

I looked at him confused when he said “You said You have been having nightmares so I would like to advise you to visit a friend of mine “

“She is a witch and she might be able to help interpret it because I believe the moon goddess is trying to show you something”

I looked at the note and looked back at him “okay Doctor I will try to reach out to her before the week runs out , hopefully she can be of help”

I bid him farewell and left. I didn't need to report in for work as I always had an off day whenever my check up was scheduled, that's one of the benefits of having a kind boss .

I drove back to my apartment , freshened up and just lay on the bed deep in thought about everything that happened today.

After finding out I was carrying triplets to the witch I was asked to visit , I took out the note and read it again. I didn't know whether or not I should go so I decided to write to Felicia asking for advice .

Few days passed and I got her reply where she congratulated me on the triplets news , and advised me to go to the witch's place hoping that she would have answers to my questions.

I immediately Started making preparations to travel to find the witch , and after a week of performing all the necessary procedures to travel as a pregnant woman.

I set out heading for where I hoped to find answers
