Days went by I started to be sick then went to Clinic I told them how I feel the pain is unbearable they asked me if there’s something that’s come out from my private part .They gives me small glass to pee and I did as they told me I urinate and brings back urine she examined it then told me that I’m pregnant I was shocked.
“Thobile Maphanga congratulations. Nurse Mashego said.
I didn’t utter a single word now I’m angry at myself it can’t be really I’m not ready for this pregnant. Sister Mashego asked me when am I going to book scale I didn’t respond her she gives 7 pills to drank it all when I arrived at home before meals . I followed the precautions by the pain didn’t walk away .
The pain grew bigger day by day the discharge becomes thicker and itches and it is smell unusual. I am no longer felt happy at work no longer talkative I baceme shy in my stomach there’s something that’s is moving but it is not the baby and I tried to tell people who’s next to me at work that I’m not feeling well some said that maybe I have infection maybe Deon infected me with a disease coz he’s a womanizer they told me that they saw her with different girls last week.
I asks permission from work went straight to pharmacy buy pregnant test when I get home I pee on it and the results came back with 2 lines but the other line does not clear. I stood up goes straight to Deon in hostel when I got there I finds that Deon is with 2 girls Mahlako and other girl I don’t know her name.
I told him that I’m pregnant he denied the pregnancy now my heart is painful and my health is aren’t good I returned to my shark crying asking myself why Deon did this to me. Why I didn’t see that he’s not good.
“That pregnant is not mine ,Deon said.
“It is you Deon I only slept with you .I said tears stream down my cheeks.
“I think you should stop calling me or coming onto my place go and abort that baby he said.
I drops the call crying none stop the pain is unbearable now I can’t manage to go to work tomorrow so I took a phone again called my manager .
“Hello how can I help you ? The Manager inquires.
“I am Thobile Maphanga , I sighed I just want to inform you that tomorrow I cannot manage to come to work I’m not feeling well I said.
“Ok no problem but make sure when you come to work brings sick note from the doctor if you don’t I would displine you . The manager said.
I hang up the call then looks myself in the mirror my stomach ain’t that big but I eat too much these days.
I took 2 days off then prepared myself to go to Mashishing in extension 8 next to Clinic I heard that there’s old men who help people to remove badluck or other illness i went there when I arrived the men gives me Bible to open it then tell me what brought me onto his home . They poured me clean water in a zinc basin and cleaned my body by his woman first she peity me and gives me herbs to drink I paid them only R50 after that returned home.
*****
It is the following day the pain didn’t go away now it my time to go see a doctor because my Manager said I should come back with letter from the doctor .
I went to the doctor and paid R350 for consultation his name is doctor Maharaj the famous doctor who is located in Mashishing CBD .I know Mashishing town ain’t that big but people who lives in Baatfonten ,Orhstaad etc they come to buy their stuff there.
“What brought you here princess? Doctor Maharaj asked.
“I see something like discharge comes out of my vigana and it is smell bad . I replied.
“When last did you saw your periods? Doctor Maharaj asked while writing down everything.
“I last saw my periods 2 months back . I replied and the pain grew bigger in my stomach.
The doctor took a sample of my urine then told me to wait few seconds the results came back positive.
“You are pregnant pricess , but right now I need to check what’s bothering you inside of the womb and what’s causes of the discharge to smell. He said
He told me to lay on top of the single bed next to ultrasound he opens my stomach put something like jel that has blue color . I looked on the ultrasound and nothing really shows off.
“Oh shit! The Doctor shout he didn’t utter a word for a moment.
“Thobile you are pregnant but the baby doesn’t seems clearly. He said.
“Why huh , I asked.
“Never mind I would gives you medicines that’s would help you to heal. By the way where’s your boyfriend because I need to give him medication too. Doctor Maharaj said.
“I and Deon we breaks up after he found out that I’m few weeks pregnant he told me to terminate it. I replied.
“Oh don’t do that child is a gift from God I am a professional doctor I would gives you medication that will heal you. He said.
He gave me medication then told me to complete the course after that I should come back for check up. I drank all my pills for a month then returned back to doctor Maharaj he examined me found out there’s no more infection in my womb , I was infected with Sexual Transmitted Infection (STI) .
“Now everything is good you could start going to scale in Clinic . The doctor said.
I did as he told me now I’m 4 months pregnant and i need to do right thing for my unborn baby i know it’s painful to go through pregnancy time alone.
I went to Clinic book scale and took HIV tests then found that I am HIV negative and the baby is growing well. I am no longer infected with Sexual Transmitted Infection. I and Deon never sees each other until I gave birth to my second child , I named him Amogelang and we’re living happily.
