Yorick:
After a few minutes, she came out and left the test on the table. I helped her sit down again, then placed the test in her lap.
"So?" I asked, keeping my eyes away from it. I wanted her to be the one to look at the result.
She looked bored as she checked the test, not as enthusiastic as she had been before. The door swung open, and my body almost jolted.
I did not want my mother to come in because the moment she saw the result, she would have strange reactions.
When my mother arrived and stood beside me, Clementine lifted her eyes, looked at her, then looked back at me.
"It is negative," she announced.
The moment she said it, I snatched the test and checked it myself. There was only one line. It was negative. My mother placed her hand on my shoulder, and I looked up at her. She gave me a reassuring nod.
"Why don't you go get her some food?" my mother requested.
"Yeah, I will need some food," Clementine replied softly.
