The Betrayed Affair

Summary

After showering, I stepped barefoot onto the smart scale in our house.

A chime rang out:

"Congratulations, Mindy, mid-pregnancy, baby is 1.5 kg!"

I was stunned. I was pregnant? How did I not know?

Excited, I grabbed my phone and immediately called my husband:

"What's wrong with the scale? Am I pregnant?"

There was a brief second of silence on the other end, then his usual gentle chuckle:

"Skylar, it's just a scale, the data's wrong. Are you overly sensitive because you haven't conceived yet?"

I hung up, then connected via Bluetooth.
