Chapter 451 - We Are Pregnant... (1/2)

Still with confusion laced on his face, Reuben opened the card to read the content inside it, only to get the biggest surprise of his life…

An equation was made on the middle page of the card with big bold letters which said…

1+1 = 3

At the end of the equation, a heartfelt quote was written in a beautiful calligraphy style which Reuben realised to be Veronica's handwriting..

”Congratulations Daddaa.…!!! Now you're going to promote from Mumma's handsome hubby to my superman Daddy..”

These small note was enough to bring tears into Reuben's eyes as he finally understood that the card or the gift box was not for Willa or Lucinda, but for him only...

His hands traced the picture of the beautiful cradle at the front page which was painted by Veronica.

Reuben's hands started to tremble while his eyes turned glossy. With those shaky hands, he opened the other envelope and held out a pregnancy kit which had two red lines on it, confirming that whatever he was thinking, was not a dream but reality..

His grip tightened around the kit and soon a sob escaped from his mouth. His eyes became teary as the salty water drops started falling on his cheeks simultaneously..

A pair of hands soon wrapped around his waist from the back. He didn't need to even turn around to detect the owner of those soft hands..

Grabbing her hands, Reuben turned Veronica around, making her come face to face with him..

Cupping both of her cheeks, he whispered while stammering a little, ”Ar…are we really go…going to be parents?”

Veronica wiped the tears from his face and confirmed with a small smile on her face, ”Yes, Bennie. Now we're becoming three from two soon. I'm pregnant, love!”

The moment those blissful words came out of Veronica's mouth, she felt herself flying in the air as Reuben had lifted her up in his arms in a snap of a second.

Twirling her around, Reuben squealed in extreme happiness, ”Yes! Yes! Yes! We're going to have a baby! The symbol of our love who will call you Mumma and me Dadda.. Yayyyyy!!”

Veronica laughed along with him as both of them enjoyed the most amazing news of their life together..

Putting her down on the floor, Reuben pulled her towards him by holding her waist and said, sincerely, ”Thank you love.. Thank you for making me a father. Thanks for being with me always and giving me the biggest happiness of having our own baby, our symbol of love..”

Tears were rushing out of his eyes nonstop, making Veronica too tear up with him.

”Thanks to you for loving me so much. Thank you for giving me opportunity of carrying out love in my mind. Thanks for making me a mother, Bennie..” Veronica too whispered with lots of love.

Reuben smiled at her tearfully and leaned towards her before capturing her lips into a sweet, gentle kiss.

Veronica too reciprocated with the kiss as their lips molded with each other perfectly. This kiss was neither an aggressive nor a hungry one. But it was showing the gratitude and love they had for each other..

Both of them were pouring every single bit of their emotions like happiness, bliss, love, care, excitement and many more in that one kiss..

After they were finally able to satisfy with the kiss, they pulled away from each other and stared at each other lovingly with a smile on their faces..

”I love you..” Veronica whispered on his lips and pecked her lips.

”I love you too, baby..” Reuben too confessed as he too joined his lips with hers in another passionate kiss..
