Poppy woke up to a bright sun shining through her window, she saw Branch beside her as blue as ever and smiled. Suddenly, her stomach begin to growl. And in confusment, she raced to the bathroom and got sick. Branch quickly woke up and went to accompany his wife.

     "Poppy, what happened? I thought Trolls like you never got sick." He said.

     "They usually don't. I've had all my shots and medicines to keep this! I'll have to go to the doctor. You don't mind watching over the kingdom for a while, do you?" Poppy asked in her happiest tone, even though she felt like crud.

Branch shook with fear and said; "Yeah. I can totally handle it. D... don't worry about me! Heh, I'm fine...."

    "Great. I'll be back soon," Poppy said, and instead of skipping, she walked slowly to get dressed and brush through her hair.

Poppy arrived at the doctor's office, she was moved to the front since she was Queen and raced into a doctor's office room.

A small, yet not too small yellow Troll with beautiful pink hair and long eyelashes entered the room.

"Good morning, your majesty. What seems to be the problem? Trolls like you don't often get sick," she said starting to scroll through papers. "Ah, yes. Very good. You've taken all your medicines. So, what could be wrong?"

"I don't know," Poppy said with a sigh. "I just felt so nauseous this morning, and I threw up in the bathroom...."

"Oh dear. The stomach bug is highly rare on Trolls. You're the first one to get it in years, unless...... Oh, my dear Queen..." she kept pausing and shaking her head.

"What? What's wrong?" Poppy cried.

"Honey, do you mind if I run you through a pregnancy test?" The doctor said.

Poppy was surprised, but she nodded. She couldn't get pregnant. It was highly impossible.

The results were back quicker than Poppy expected.

To her surprise, the Nurse and Doctor hugged her.

"Queen Poppy, you're pregnant!"

Poppy screamed with joy and tears flew down her rose cheeks.
