On April Fool’s Day, a pregnancy test with two distinct red lines fell out of my coat pocket.
I turned to my wife in surprise. “Are you pregnant with our second child?”
Her voice was flat. “Chen Wei, we haven’t had sex in six months.”
I froze for a second before quickly spinning a lie.
“It’s a prank prop! It’s April Fool’s Day, I was just messing with you. Gotcha, didn’t I?”
As soon as I stepped out of the house, I called my mistress to demand answers.
If she was pregnant, she needed to get an abortion immediately.
She had a worse temper than I did and denied it outright.
What a joke.
I only had two women in my life, and neither of them was pregnant.
Was this pregnancy test supposed to be mine?
