I Travel, I Love
SHOULD REMAIN GRATEFUL

Tonight, Giovan looked at his wife in confusion because he could feel Lynn's gaze so keenly looking at her.

"Why do you keep looking at me like that?" ask Giovan. He got up and approached Lynn who was leaning on the head of the bed.

"You're playing secret secrets with me?" ask Lynn.

"Consecrated? what secret?" Giovan frowned in confusion.

Lynn folded both hands in front of the chest. He sighed slowly and finally ventured to ask.

"You helped Melissa to go to college?" ask Lynn.

"Hmm .. I feel sorry for him. He wanted to learn, but it didn't cost anything" Lynn saw and heard no doubt or desire to hide it from the way Giovan spoke and saw it.

"I'm sorry if I didn't tell you. Actually I wanted to thank him for telling me about what you used to do. If you don't like me doing it, I'll stop it and compensate the others" Giovan said. She doesn't want Lynn to misunderstand what she did to Melissa.

Lynn smiled, "I'm not angry, I'm proud that you can help her. Can I ask you something?"

"Of course, baby. Anything for you" said Giovan smiling.

"Melissa only conducts online lectures. Allow and help him to go to college like everyone else, because I know the lecture period will be fun for him."

"You want me to do that?"

"Hmm, don't you want to?" asked Lynn hesitated.

"I want. I'll grant your wish" Giovan smiled. Lynn hugged her husband tightly, then whispered, "I want you too, will you grant it?"

Without much to say, Giovan immediately undressed and confined Lynn, "If this one were to be, I would always grant it."

That night, they again dissolve in a hot struggle filled with love.

*****

It's been a few days since Lynn felt so unwell. His head was dizzy and he did not want to eat. Not even the fruit he wants.

"Baby, you have to eat. Look at your face is pale like that. Let's go to the doctor, yeah" Pinta Giovan.

Lynn shook her head, "I'm fine. Maybe just lack of sleep and catch a cold."

Snow that starts to fall makes the atmosphere cooler, even though inside the house using a heater.

"Can't be, baby. You're sick not just now but it's been a few days. This time just follow my wishes," said Giovan.

Lynn looked at Giovan's face, and she finally agreed.

At once Giovan wanted to laugh seeing Lynn's face which seemed to be very afraid to go to the doctor.

"Are you afraid of being injected?" ask Giovan.

"Hmm .. I don't want to!!"

"But you're not afraid of my injections" said Giovan who immediately made Lynn's face flushed like a tomato.

"Ahhh bawdymm!!" Lynn hits Giovan's shoulder teasing him.

*****

They were sitting in waiting chairs at the hospital. Giovan immediately took Lynn to see a general practitioner who practices there. With a sweater thick enough, they wait their turn.

"Mrs Sebastian," call a nurse.

Giovan and Lynn went straight into the room. They saw a middle-aged woman who was writing something on paper.

He then raised his face and smiled at the two. The doctor asked for complaints felt by Lynn, then checked Lynn's blood pressure.

The doctor smiled, "When did you last come to the moon?"

"Hmm, I don't really remember Doc because his schedule was never organized."

"For a definitive diagnosis, I suggest you meet with an obgyn doctor."

"Is there a problem with my body?" ask Lynn worriedly. Although she knew Giovan was experiencing infertility, it did not rule out the possibility that she could get pregnant. But if he is the one who is in trouble right now, then they really will not be able to have children.

"No Madam. According to my predictions, you are currently pregnant. Therefore, for more certainty you should see a gynecologist," explained the doctor.

It is undeniable that there is a hue of hope on the faces of both husbands and wives. They soon quit and Giovan re-registered Lynn at the obstetrician.

Giovan continued to hold Lynn's hand, even though he felt that his hand was now colder than the temperature outside. His heart was beating fast and could not wait to find out if the general practitioner's guess was correct. After all, Giovan is very hopeful of having a child with Lynn.

"Your hands are cold" said Lynn, looking at Giovan, who was holding her. He could see Giovan's tense face.

"Remain, whether or not this diagnosis is correct, we must remain grateful. Anyway, we'll always be together" Lynn said. He knew what was on Giovan's mind.

"Thank you."
