The night had arrived, two people who had been silent with each other, now finally ventured to open their voices.
“A—I will sleep in the next room, if you are not comfortable with my existence,” said the woman who was pregnant for six months with her head lowered.
Although not remembering, Clayton also did not have the heart to see the woman who was told by everyone that she was his wife, looking down to hold back such tears. His face was indeed flat, but his heart felt like a pinch, when he saw the innocent woman's face rubbing her large belly.
“Sleep, you must be tired,” replied Clayton still with his flat face, but he stared fixedly at the face and body of Shiena which now looks more contained.
Shiena shook her head, “I don't want to disturb your rest. You're still in recovery, I'll move.”
Shiena immediately moved from her seat. Just a few steps he walked, suddenly he felt a kick that was enough to make him screech because of pain and also surprised.
Dugm!
“Auwh!”
He almost fell, if Clayton hadn't caught him. Slowly, Clayton led Shiena back to sit on the side of the bed.
“Do it hurt?” clayton asked slightly frowning as he looked at Shiena's huge belly.
“Hah!” Again and again, Clayton was amazed when he saw Shiena's stomach that kept on moving protruding to and fro, and here, and occasionally he also glanced at Shiena's face that was biting her lower lip.
“Can I hold it?” clayton asked softly as he raised his head, because somehow since when the man had changed his position by sitting crouching in front of Shiena.
After receiving Shiena's approval for a nod of the head, Clayton began to force his hand to hold the belly very slowly and carefully.
Dugm!
“Auwh!”
Every time Clayton touched that belly, then Shiena would continue to squeal in surprise. Karen the baby in Shiena's womb will immediately respond by giving a death kick, making Shiena feel a little pain.
“Slow baby, this is Papa,” muttered Clayton half whispered and still rubbed Shiena's stomach, “Can you be softer? Don't you feel sorry for your mama hem?”
“Well, healthy always yes. Must be a strong child so we can meet soon,” said Clayton again invite his son chat.
Slowly, Shiena regressed her position, touching the head board so she could lean back. His waist since earlier was quite sore because it was too long sitting by making both his hands rest in the back. Not only Shiena changed position, now Clayton also rose and climbed onto the bed. He helped Shiena to find a comfortable position, then he unconsciously placed his head on Shiena's thigh. He resumed his first chat with his future baby.
‘You must be happy, right? Papa is with us. This is the moment we have been waiting for all this time, and I hope that papa will continue to be with us like this,’ Shiena murmured in her heart.
His smile never faded, when he heard speech after speech that was said by Clayton to his son who was still in the stomach. And no matter how long, Clayton chatted with the baby still in the stomach. Until unknowingly, making Shiena fall asleep while leaning on the head board. Because he could not bear it, Clayton immediately realized and woke up from his position. He slowly confirmed Shiena's position to sleep properly, not to forget he also pulled the blanket so that his child remained warm in there.
‘This is how it feels,’ mumbled Clayton slightly raised a smile to see his wife sleeping soundly with a stomach that was so big.
