Joy and Pain

"Hey, sure you're okay?"

April asked Ava who sat quietly on the bed. She gave a nodding response. Her behavior was suspicious , it made April refuse taking her eyes off her. Instead, she moved on from where she stood and over to the other side of the bed where Ava sat. 

Ava had her fingertips squeezing hard on the beddings on both sides. She had a nervous look on her face and her knees were locked together as her feet tapped on the floor. Her eyes couldn't maintain a stare. They would go on to roll about in their sockets while her lips were folded inwards.

Standing in front of her and seeing all these, April dimmed her eyes at her.

"What are you hiding Ava?"

She asked her in a tormenting tone.

"Nothing"

Ava voiced with a grin at once.

"Are you pregnant?"

April asked her.

"What? No. No .."
