"Is she fertile?" Rohan asks.

"Yes, sir, she is, however, we will need to operate a few tests on her before being 100% sure." the doctor replies.

Ira grins happily to herself- Rohan wants a child as well. It has been her life-long dream: to have a child, a successful job and a good life.

Maybe this won't be as bad as she thought...

"I'm sorry sir, but we don't have any of the female nurses present today. But if you wish, I could run these tests on your wife if you wish for me too." the doctor informs.

"Yes, that would be splendid." Rohan decides and Ira is taken in to be surveyed.

"Congratulations Sir. Your wife is capable of becoming pregnant." Ira smiles triumphantly at this news.

"Thank you," Rohan replies with gritted teeth. "Let's go Ira." He clenches a surprised Ira's hand and drags her outside.

It is in the deathly silence of the car that Ira realises one thing:

She has bruises on her wrist.
