Chapter 66: Forgetfulness
[ At Summit Medical Center... ]
"Dom, where have you been? I’ve been looking for you. Are you done with your check-up and test?" Sasha approached Dominique upon entering the office of Dr. Benjamin Taylor. Dominique stepped out earlier to find Dr. Harris.
"Yes. I’m done with my check-up. I just called the office," Dominique lied. He didn’t want her to know that he was searching for Dr. Harris, the doctor who examined Sabrina five years ago. Anything related to Sabrina was a topic he preferred to keep hidden from Sasha.
"Oh. Did something happen?" Sasha asked, pulling Dominique to the bench. Then the two of them sat down as they waited for Dr. Taylor.
"Nothing. I just instructed my secretary regarding my appointment tomorrow. So how’s your examination?" Dominique changed the topic.
"I’m done with the fertility test, blood test, hormonal evaluations, and ultrasound. Dr. Taylor will give us further details," Sasha responded excitedly.
"Ahem," Dr. Taylor cleared his throat as he reappeared in front of the married couple. He was holding their charts and reading some of the results of their fertility tests.
"Mrs. Smith, to enhance the chances of your successful fertilization, I will recommend you some medication for two weeks to stimulate egg production. You will also have to closely monitor your menstrual cycle for us to determine the optimal time for the insemination. Just follow my instructions, Okay?" Dr. Taylor informed Sasha.
Sasha nodded eagerly. "Yes, Doc. I will."
Then Dr. Taylor turned to Dominique. "Mr. Smith, I will let you decide the method for your sperm extraction. On the day of the insemination, your semen sample will be processed in our laboratory to isolate the healthiest sperm for insemination. Just let me know if you’ve chosen your preferred method."
"Yes. I’ll think about it first," Dominique simply replied.
"If you have questions, don’t hesitate to raise them to me. I will gladly answer them." Dr. Taylor shifted his gaze alternately between Dominique and Sasha.
