The Bad News Was Worse Than Expected
“… it appears that the baby inside you.. isn’t yours”. Rose gasped. “Excuse me? What does that even mean”, she screamed with tears beginning to stream down her face. It was at this point that the doctor explained to her that from the genetic testing, they can see that the DNA of the baby doesn’t match that of either Rose or Gianni. She was confused, distraught and devastated. “Surely this is a joke, right? A sick, stupid joke”, she exclaimed. The doctor sat nervously, almost as if he didn’t know what to say. This was such an unusual situation, he didn’t know what the right answer would even be. “It seems that the wrong embryo was placed inside your uterus”. “This is genuinely so unlikely, I don’t even know how this could have happened”. Rose heard this weak answer and became enraged. She took out her phone and dialed Gianni.
A Terrible Phone Call
Gianni was sat in an interesting lecture on protons and electrons at the time of Rose’s urgent call. “Ciao, bella, what’s the matter?”, he asked, not realizing the true gravity of the situation quite yet. Rose promptly explained to Gianni what had happened at the doctor’s office. His face dropped almost instantly. Without a moment’s thought he grabbed his things and marched out of he lecture. He even heard his lecturer make a comment along the lines of ‘I guess I was boring him?’ on his exit. Gianni was enraged, but he had bigger fish to fry. He ran to his car and set the GPS to the doctor’s office. This doctor was about to feel the full impact of Gianni’s rage.
