After another one hour of fighting and irritating the girl, Jacob stepped out of the room, wis.h.i.+ng both the ladies a good-bye. He walked in the long corridors of the hospital and suddenly came across the maternity ward.
Jacob halted again in surprise. "What the h.e.l.l? Why do I keep seeing all this!!"
He quickly walked past the expectant mothers and suddenly came across the IVF room. "Did I take a wrong turn? I was supposed to go towards the exit door!"
He walked further ahead and saw a large h.o.a.rding of the surrogacy facility provided in the hospital, right in front of him. "Ohh! So they provide it themselves? Wow! How convenient! You donate your sperms, pay for the procedure and get a child in nine months!" Jacob stood their for a very long time, as if still in a delimma.
Suddenly he walked upto a receptionist and looked at her with confused eyes. "h.e.l.lo! Where can I know, more about this surrogacy procedure?"
"Well, you can fill this form and our doctor will have a word with you!" The lady spoke up, warmly, handing over a blue colored form to the boy.
"Thanks!" Jacob smiled, hesitantly holding the form as if he was already holding a baby, in his hands.
He sat down on a chair nearby, reading the form details.
"Name- Jacob Miller
Age- 25
Marital status- Never married.
Kids- None
Parents details- They both are not alive.
Reason for surrogacy- To have a baby"s unconditional love and have a family of my own."
Jacob gave the form to the lady sitting at the reception. The lady looked at the form and then looked at the man in surprise. "You...You are single?"
"Yes! Why?" Jacob looked at the girl in confusion.
"Why do you want a baby like this. Why not get married!!" The lady asked, looking at Jacob from head to toe. Is he impotent? Does he have any physical ailments?
"As written. I want a family!" Jacob smiled.
"Ohk! Do you have any ailment, STD or any s.e.xual problems?" The lady asked looking at the form.
"No! I am fine!" Jacob looked at the lady in confusion. " Why do you ask?"
"You are the first one I have seen. A single boy not looking for a girlfriend, but for a baby! Anyways the doctor is waiting for you. First door to your left!" The lady pointed at the corridor, towards Jacob"s right.
"Alright! Thank you!" Jacob smiled and walked towards the corridor to his right. He then turned left and knocked on the door.
