Today's OneWord: Sterile
“We need to take a urine sample to make sure you’re not pregnant,” intoned the nurse, looking half-asleep as she perused my clipboard.
“No need,” I interjected. “I’m not pregnant.”
“But are you sure? Some women don’t know they’re pregnant until they check.”
“I’m infertile. Never been able to have kids,” I pointed out, getting somewhat frustrated. “Not pregnant.”
“But it says you have a partner on your sheet…”
“Yes. Partner. Female partner. Not pregnant. Not possible. No test. I can't have kids. I'm sterile. And I'm done here.”
“No need,” I interjected. “I’m not pregnant.”
