Get Away || rexspeculis
She had been determined to not tell him, to spare him of her private hell. She could handle it herself, she had dealt with worse. What was this if not another bump in the road of life.
At least, that was what she had thought the first time she miscarried. It had been sudden, and when she had herself checked by the physician and he told her, she was heartbroken, but was also thankful that she hadn’t told Hans yet... so he was still unaware. But then she became pregnant again, and it happened again.
The second time was much harder on her. She was frustrated ---- she wanted at least one more child before she declared herself done, and Noelle was getting older. She wanted to hear the running of little feet against the wood floors once more, and it saddened her that it looked like it might not happen now.
Still, she got pregnant a third time, yet on the very day that she was planning to tell Hans she was pregnant, she felt it again. Sure enough, when she had been checked out by the physician again, he told her she had miscarried a third time and that maybe it was time to accept that her body wouldn’t produce any more children. No, she couldn’t tell Hans now. She had dealt with the heartbreak twice before by herself, and she could do it again.
She hoped.
