She resumed her seat, her gaze lingering on the path they had taken.
Lucia and Waldo exchanged looks, both confused and worried.
Suddenly, Lucia’s face lit up with realization.
Waldo was surprised at her reaction and asked, “What's up?”
Lucia exclaimed, “It just dawned on me.
Stella’s sudden reaction... Could she be pregnant? Do you remember my early days of pregnancy?”

disbelief.
Stella was pregnant!
Lindsay struggled to conceal her envy, keeping her emotions under wraps.

Stella, you should head to the hospital for a check-up.
If you're really pregnant, Grandpa and Grandma will be thrilled.
Stella's heart raced as she met the expectant looks of the three elders.
She knew Lindsay must have said those words out of ulterior motives, but she couldn't muster the focus to
address them now.
