You smile an nod, "Oh! I'm that one- the fetus thing. Umbilicum? I never knew what it was called." you stutter nervously.
She isn't convinced. "Prove it." You look at her, confused, so she adds, "If you're an umbilicum, show me your cord." She taps her foot impatiently.
Your eyes bulge for a second as you realize what she means. Hesitantly, you reach for the belt of your pants and start to strip from the waist down. Soon you are in your t-shirt, underwear and a pair of socks, and here you lift up your shirt for her to see.
You reveal a fairly good-sized plastic bag taped with care to your belly, covering what looks like a fat, slimy, blue and red snake about eighteen inches long. One end of the snake is firmly attached to your belly right where your bellybutton would be if you had one. The other end is a sickly greyish-brown.
"Oh my!" she exclaims, "you look like you need immediate attention!"
