Special Chapter 40 Shine Weiner

It's been weeks since I feel dizzy and had nausea every morning. I've asked several times about my absence from my class because I don't feel well, I guess this is my karma because I'm the reason why Red and Rackie broke up. If I didn't do that… their happy and healthy relationship won't end. I can't help but cry about what happened, I have a lot of what-ifs in my head. Since I wasn't able to go to my class, I messaged Cloud that I didn't come to my class. And he might get mad at me because I didn't tell him… sigh! He's difficult to please nowadays… he's been convincing me to marry him but since I still feel guilty for all the things I've done to him and his friend, I think I don't deserve to be with him for the rest of my life.

I was startled when my phone vibrated. It's Cloud. "Hmm?" I said on the line.

"Babe, I'm outside the house. Can you stand and open the door?" he asks.

"Can you wait?" I replied. I think he's thinking that I'm sick.

The moment I open the door, he hug me so tight. "Do you have something you want to eat?" he said after hugging me.

I chuckled. "Come in first."

"No, just give me the key to this door then I'll buy anything you want to eat."

I think for a while. "I think I want to eat green mango and I want to dip it on the sweetened mango you did before."

He stared at me; I also notice that he wrinkled his nose. "You won't have a soft po—"

I gave him the keys and pushed him to hurry. "Hurry!" I said then closed the door.

He bought the green mango I said I want to eat but now he still hesitates to do the sweetened mango as my dip.

"Are you sure about this?" he asks while he's cutting the yellow mango he peeled.

"Of course, I am!" I replied then eat some of the green mangoes that he put in front of me earlier.

He winced. "When did you start feeling unwell?" he asks then sat on the chair in front of me.

"About a few weeks already… I can't even attend my class because it's occurring every morning and I'm so dizzy and sometimes I puke." I said

He suddenly stood up. "You puke every morning?" he asks. "Then, it's been a few weeks since you felt that?"

"Yes."

He clicked his tongue. "After you eat this, get ready and we'll go to the hospital, you really must be sick."

"Oh, come on… I'm okay, don't over exaggerate."

He glared at me. "We'll go to the hospital whether you don't like it or you hate it. If you didn't get ready after you eat, I'll personally be the one who will take you a bath."

"Okay, fine… we will go to the hospital. You are so worried freak!"

He glared at me again. "It's better to be sure when it comes to your health instead of ignoring it."

I just shook my head. After we became okay, he's been like that. He wants to be involved with my life if possible especially when it comes to my health. When it comes to me, I really can't stop him moreover when I'm not feeling well.

We were in the hospital already and he was right in front of me walking back and forth, he'll sit then stand up again.

"Cloud, can you relax a bit? Calm down, okay?" I irritably said.

He sat beside me again. "How can I calm down? We've been waiting here like forever?"

"Shine Weiner." The nurse called me. I stood up. "This way please…" she said. I followed her and I was startled when I noticed Cloud behind me.

"Sit down." The doctor said. "What are the things you feel?"

"I feel dizzy and nausea sometimes I puke every morning," I replied.

The doctor nods. "Are you staying late?"

"Sometimes because of the work, I have to finish something late at night."

"When is your last period?" the doctor asks.

My mind suddenly went blank, when is my last period? "From what I remember though I can't remember the exact date it was the first-week last month," I replied. They made some tests and we have to wait for several hours for the result so we went out to eat.

Cloud looked at me while the traffic lights were on a stop sign. "What?" I consciously ask.

"Nothing, it's just that…" he looks at the traffic lights. "Nothing, nevermind." He said but his ears are so red.

I chuckled, is he shy? "You're looking at me because you can't take off your eyes on my pretty face, right?" I joked on. He closes his eyes for a while. I was taken aback by his reaction, I didn't know that my joke was right.

--

"Doc, what's the result?" we both ask simultaneously.

"Well, I'll recommend you to another doctor. That doctor will help you."

Confused and nervous but we went to see that doctor. "You said your last period was the first week of last month, you're dizzy and nauseous. Well… that's only normal for your condition."

I crooked my forehead. "Wait doc, how can it be normal?" Cloud impatiently asked.

"Mr. your wife is pregnant and she's seven weeks pregnant. Congrats!" the doctor said. Right there and then, I read what's written on the table, the doctor we were talking to right now is an OB/Gyne. I felt like I got deaf from what I heard.           

She's seven weeks pregnant. This line is echoing inside my head. I can't believe what Cloud said that he'll make a way for me to have a reason to marry him.

"Babe, are you okay?" Oh! Did he ask me that question? If only he was not driving I'd already slapped him. "Are you hungry? Do you have anything you want to eat?" he asks again.

It seems like every time he'll ask me if I do have something I want to eat my ears flap. "I want to eat siomai."

"Okay. We'll buy that, I know where to buy a delicious siomai in a mall. Can you wait for it?" I frowned but since I'm craving for that I'll wait.

We were inside the mall, sitting in the food court to eat siomai when his phone rang. "Hello, Mom!" he said. "Yes, that's right. I did message you, right? Huh? We're in a mall right now… of course not! Mine!" he said then laughed. "Okay, yeah… After we're done here. Mom we're just going round and round with this conversation." He said irritably. After the phone call, he smiled at me. "You can't run from me anymore," he said smiling at me. "Marry me," he said in a serious tone with his eyes fixed on me.
