30 Another Uncle And Aunt

Now that she saw them almost after a long time, a part of her heart felt relieved but then she was a little sad also. After knowing about her condition they sure were gonna be sad and she didn't wanted them to feel that for her.

Xu Zhuya wanted her childhood friends whom she considered as her siblings to not feel sad for her condition.

Su Wan and Song Jung looked at her with eyes full of tears. Su Wan said in a crying tone "Hey! Where are you lost? Young lady?"

Xu Zhuya came back to reality when she heard Su Wan speak. She replied with a weak smile "Nothing.. it's just nothing.... I really missed you both." She hugged them once again and took a deep breath and asked "Hmm, So how have you guys been? How is uncle and aunt and everyone? Are all of them alright?"

Song Jung replied "Seriously, Xu Zhuya? You haven't changed at all. That same tone and everything and even now, the same questions, huh?" He paused for a while and looked at her condition from up to down and said "Wait a minute! Why are you keeping your hand on your stomach?" Su Wan also looked at her and pointed out at her stomach "Yeah. What's wrong Xu Zhuya? Are you okay?"

As the two began to worry, Xu Zhuya ignored her thoughts and said the truth "I am pregnant. So, I was just..."

Xu Zhuya hadn't even completed her sentence when Su Wan butted in "What? Pregnant?"

She looked at Song Jung and they both looked at each other with an amusing look. "She is pregnant..." Song Jung exclaimed while Su Wan nodded joyfully.

Soon, they kept their hands over Xu Zhuya's shoulders from either side and yelled joyfully "Our Xu Zhuya is pregnant... We are gonna be Uncle and Aunt!"

Xu Zhuya was literally dumbstruck by their behavior. She was left speechless by her childhood friends. "Ehh! Stop it.... You guys are way too loud." Seeing the people looking at them, Xu Zhuya felt awkward and she told them to stop.

"No one informed us about you being married, Xu Zhuya... Otherwise, we surely would have come." Su Wan pulled her close by her shoulder and continued "Atleast... we could have seen the handsome guy who married my beautiful sissy." She exclaimed with excitement in her voice.

Hearing this, Xu Zhuya felt a little depressed. She didn't wanted her friends to know that she was divorced now... They had just met and she didn't wanted to spoil the reunion.

She tried changing the topic but she failed. At last she said "I got married almost eight months back. I wanted to write up to you or call you but I was so busy with my work that I couldn't make it up.

And one day when I got time I searched up your numbers in my phone and unfortunately when I dialed the number it said that the number was wrong. I'm sure that maybe I might have deleted one or two digits. So that's why I wasn't able to contact you guys...."

As she was about to continue she was interrupted by Song Jung "Ohh! Well that's great you got married. We are happy for you. But who is the guy? You didn't mention the name of the guy but you are saying your stupid story about losing our contact and everything. Seriously, you just didn't change."

Upon hearing the question, Xu Zhuya felt that she was struck by lightning. Her fear was coming back to her. Her bright smile started to fade away and when Su Wan noticed that, she caught hold of her hands and asked in a caring tone "Hey! Xu Zhuya... What's wrong? Are you okay? Is everything okay? What happened back at home? Tell us Xu Zhuya..."

Before she could realize tears started rolling down her cheek and she replied in a muffled tone "I...I... am divorced." She felt bad that she couldn't even control her tears despite of coming this far.

Both Su Wan and Song Jung looked at her with sudden shock. They felt that she was joking but when they saw her cry they couldn't say anything. Su Wan opened her mouth to say something but she couldn't say. They both cuddled her softly and just like parents taking care of their broken child they patted her back and whispered sweet nothings to calm her down.

It was a while now and slowly, slowly Xu Zhuya began to open up and said everything that happened to her. She said everything starting from her arranged marriage till her being thrown out of the house by her parents.

As Song Jung heard it all... he began to curse. He began fuming with anger. "That f*cking rat... How dare he do this to you? Ughh! I hate him. It is good that you got rid of that jerk, Xu Zhuya!" He smiled and patted her head carefully.

Su Wan also agreed to Song Jung and comforted her.

"Hushh! It's okay. Don't worry. Everything will be fine. Now that you are over here, we will take care of you."

"So... Where will you be staying now? You can come stay with us.. We will be really glad to keep you." Su Wan changed the topic. It was futile to talk over spilled milk.

Xu Zhuya rubbed her tears and said "No, It's fine already. I have decided to move on. So, there's nothing to worry about, guys. Thank you. But I'll be staying in a hotel for a few days and when I get a job I'll find a house and shift over."
