Lieutenant Siaxx Dvald was sitting in her office as she was processing the paperwork, as she noticed something odd with the medicla work of Rachael Yamaguchi so she tapped her combadge. "Dvald to Yamaguchi, Rachael could you come to sickbay when you have twenty minutes, we need to go over something."
"Yamaguchi here El Tee." Rachael's voice responded. "I got out of class twenty minutes ago, I'm at home now..whats up?" the teenagers voice came back
"I'd prefer to discuss it in person." Siaxx commented. "I don't want to bother you... how long will you be?"
"I'm at home now, I'm just gonna have a shower and then i'll be right down."
"Please. I'll explain why when you get here."
"Understood doctor. Yamaguchi out." Rachael Yamaguchi tapped her combadge as she wondered what that was all about as she sighed softly before she began to strip out of her clothing for her shower.
Twenty minutes or so later, the door opened and in came Rachael Yamaguchi who looked unhappy, clearly worried about why she was here as this situation was generally never good to start with.
Lieutenant Dvald looked at the teenager as she stood at her office door. "Ahh Rachael, good." she commented. "Good... come in.."
Rachael walked into the Doctor's office as she instantly took a seat, Siaxx for her part closed the door behind her as she quickly took her seat. "Okay... I ran the numbers on your bloodwork... and your physical and I came across two abnormalities. One is an iron deficency." she commented. "The other is you're recent bout of stomach flu." she paused. "I'd like to run another couple of tests on you to make sure that all is well.."
Rachael nodded her head. "Okay,."
Siaxx produced her tricorder as she did a quick scan, frowning as she did so.
"Doc?" Rachael inquired.
"Rachael..." Siaxx looked almost stricken as she regarded the teenager. "You are pregnant."
Rachael blinked as she regarded Siaxx. "Pregnant... what... how?... I took every precaution?" but the look on Rachael's face betrayed her shock and horror of what she had just heard that she wasn't sure if she had.
"Did you?" Siaxx inquired gently. "Rachael... this can be dealt with.." There was something in the Bolians tone.
"How long do I have before I can terminate it?" Rachael caught it instantly and knew what to ask.
"Twenty four weeks... now your about five weeks along..." Siaxx explained. "We're going to get you through this..." the Bolian explained. "Does your mother know?" Siaxx knew the answer but she had to ask anyway.
"No... and you will not speak of it to her Doctor.. " Rachael responded in a dark tone.. "Mom has her own problems..." she then breathed pout and then back in. "I'll tell her in my own time." she paused. "Will that be all Doctor?"
"Yeah.... I'm Sorry."
"I'll get over it..." Rachael gently touched her abdomen. "in time... and with help."
