It’s Not That Simple
Because Felicia was so fidgety, performing the ultrasound turned out to be more difficult than it had initially appeared. Ben was questioned as to whether or not he could assist him in stretching her into a suitable posture. The veterinarian would not have been able to do the ultrasound till then.
The veterinarian’s voice shifted several times throughout the scan. His normally upbeat outlook began to darken as time went on. Ben was aware of this, but he did not want to draw the attention of the doctor. Later, he regretted not asking her sooner. After looking at the ultrasound for a short while, the veterinarian informed Ben that she had to make an important phone call right now. Ben, on the other hand, was unaware of who it was that she intended to get in touch with. After the initial reassurance that his horses were healthy, he started to feel uneasy.
