The Nose Knows

I've always had a good nose and could sniff out just about any scent. But the other day, my smelling prowress had escalated to new heights - I actually tracked down the assualting odor of rotting banana to a peel placed in a trash bin three workstations away!

It was then that I realized I needed to make my way to the pharamcy. As I walked home from work, I gave myself a pep talk to muster up the courage to make the purchase that would explain my sniffing powers.

After several litres of water and four trips to the toilets, my suspicions were confirmed - I was pregnant. Or, at least 3 of the 4 pee sticks said so. It was then that I felt the walls crashing in on me. Could it be?

For the rest of the evening, I sat stunned, wringing my fingers and awaiting the daddy-to-be's return so I could share the news.

Before the door closed behind him, I blurted out the news, which left the two of us stunned into silence for the rest of the evening.
