My Heart Was Wounded Deep
Chapter 88's

A week after a dinner at Rey's friend's house, Kikan began to feel dizzy, accompanied by nausea. Kikan tried to remember his last menstruation, it feels like this is more than... Could it?

Nah! Or. could be.

His heart started to beat. Yes, it is true. It's too late, not just a few days.

But... being late is not strange, is not it? There are many things that can cause delays. One of them is stress, stress can disrupt the body.

However, usually stress does not disrupt his body system. Not until it causes his menstruation to be late. The menstruation is always on time... So precise that he never paid too much attention to his cycle. That part of his life was something Kikan was dealing with rather casually. He never had stomach cramps, headaches, or anything that made his monthly cycle feel more than a minor annoyance.

But two weeks! The delay is severe. There are other causes besides stress.

"Oh my God." Cold sweat suddenly appeared, as the possibility of pregnancy crossed Kikan's mind.

He opened a calendar on his phone.he found the seventh of September was a date to check and send a bracelet order, Kikan remembered he was menstruating that day, so it was impossible he remembered the date wrong. Kikan stared at the notes on his calendar.

Her mind was fixed, on her husband. It would be a nice surprise for Rey with this news later. But Kikan couldn't confirm it either now.

He started walking back and forth, not knowing what to do. Kikan finally gave up and grabbed his phone.

Even though the phone was in her hands, Kikan was unable to even dial her husband's number. He just sat stunned, taking a short breath while staring out the window. After everything that happened, Kikan trembled.

Kikan was still holding his phone when it rang, making him jump because he was being cool. Rey's name was written on the screen.

Kikan closed his eyes, leaned back, then answered Rey's phone. "Hallo?" He said, but his voice was so soft and breathless that he hesitated to hear it.

Rey was silent for a while before responding. "Hallo?" rey's voice sounded quite loud in the ears. "Kicans? You all right? You sound so lethargic.

" Yes, i... I'm fine," answered Kikan, his one hand holding his stomach.

" I'm actually saying I'm going home a little late, my job's just done. But.... Your voice's weird. What's up?"

Kikan considered lying. He wanted to deny to himself that this was too soon. But what's the point of hiding from the facts? His character is too practical to do so. If she's pregnant, Rey is the first person she should tell. "There's a problem." Kikan

"Is there a problem?" reset Rey.

"I. I feel like I'm gonna throw up."

"Why? What's the matter? You're scaring me!"

"Can you bring me a pregnancy test kit?"

"Bring what?" rey asked as if he had heard wrongly.

Kikan could not repeat the request. He began to shortness of breath so he needed to concentrate on slowing his breath. Rightly so. Be calm. Pull, exhale. Everything's gonna be fine.....

"No, not wrong. Can you please buy it?" pinta Kikan's.

"certain. I'm buying it now."

As usual, Jason was unusually busy after the game, there were many sessions of photographs, he had also spent half an hour more discussing with the team and his coach in evaluating the results they had obtained.

When his phone rang, he knew it was his parents, told him to go home soon, so he could have dinner together.

Jason picked up Rey's call. "Hallo pah, I'll be home in a minute. Coach is giving away the wobble." he said.

"You'd better get home, buddy!" Said Rey. "Your mother can't wait to see you."

"Well, I'll go straight home" Jason said without suspecting.

Jason asked permission to go home first to the coach. And immediately headed for his jeep once he got permission. Jason thought the mother would want to show him the new recipe he had made.

Jason really enjoyed the moments of gathering with his parents. Therefore, he immediately obeyed Rey's request on the phone earlier.

As soon as he got home, Jason did not find his parents at the dinner table. They usually wait for him there. Jason climbed the stairs and walked towards his parents' second room. He was greeted with the cry of his mother, who was in his father's arms.

"Mom's....Q. Is something wrong?" Ask Jason.

"Come here, buddy, your mother wants to say something." Rey replied.

Jason hesitated. "Did Lori's family do it again?"

Kikan seemed to be trying to stop crying, and left a small sob.

"No. Everything is fine" answered Kikan. "I'm just too happy."

"The three of us will be having dinner outside, celebrating the addition of one new member in the family." Said Rey.

Jason seemed to not understand the meaning of his parents. "meaning?"

Kikan showed me the test peck he had been holding since. "I know you can be a good brother. And soon there will be one new member, to realize the wishes of all of us" said Kikan, back in tears.

Jason began to understand the direction of his parents' conversation. And immediately hugged his parents. He even cried happily to hear it. Rey patted Jason's shoulder to calm his son.

"I've always been jealous of other kids having complete parents, but now I'm getting more than I ever imagined." Jason says. "Thank you Mom... Uh.."
