I’m Sorry I Love You V

Honey, of course I forgive you! I love you so much! I’ve really missed you. I was wrong to get upset over nothing.

I’m sorry I haven’t called or anything, but right after you decided you wanted a break, I was called up north to put out some major forest fires! I was in the middle of nowhere, working day and night, trying to prevent the blaze from spreading! It was pretty intense.

Oh, honey, I’m glad you’re okay! But I have some exciting news... I think I’m pregnant!

Really? Wow, that’s amazing! This is great news! I’ve always wanted to be a father! We’ll go to the doctor first thing in the morning!

We have your test results back and, indeed, you are pregnant. Let’s see here... everything seems to be in order. Your approximate due date is October twenty-seventh two thousand and nine, so that means that the baby was conceived on February third, two thousand and nine.

Are you sure? Are these things accurate?

Well, yes sir, they are.

What’s wrong? Why are you asking these questions?

This baby isn’t mine! I was away the first week of February at a training seminar!

I... I... no, it can’t be...
