Chapter 113 - New Member (2/2)

” For real?” That was all I could manage to say. My jaw dropped.

” Yes.” All the happiness of the world gathers around my feet. I begun to scream excitedly. I don't know how to react. I'm beyond happy.

I picked my wife up like a little doll, twirling around together with joy.

” Put me down already.” She laughs while keeping her eyes on me. I can see her dilated pupils. My head was spinning so I had to put her down.

” When did you find out?” Touching the base of the neck, I asked her.

” Three days ago.” It's totally unbelievable that all this happened in my absence. Why didn't she told me about it. I would have fled back home instantly.

” Why didn't you-” She stopped me from proceeding further.

” I was not sure. I thought it's best to confirm it first. The reports came today. I'm two weeks pregnant.” Well she is right in this case. I lowered my head towards her tummy and pressed my ear. Of course I can't feel or hear the baby but it's so strange that a little life is growing inside that tiny place.

” I'm so happy. So happy. I still can't believe it. This feels like a dream.”

” We are gonna be mom and dad.” I was delighted yet there were other thoughts causing me distress. It's not even a year since we got married.

On the other hand Stella gets anxious about the childbirth issue.

Lastly she just joined the company. Her career only started. All these obstacles still she is determined.

Or is she doing this for my sake?

” But are you sure? It's not long since you joined work. And your fear...” Stella didn't let me finish.

” I can do it as long you are with me. Trust me Theo. I took my time to think about it. It's true that I was afraid to have a child but things changed. Beside we are also getting old. I don't want my kids to call me granma.”

” Oh come on! You don't look same as your age.” I tried to correct her statement by whining about it. She look way younger and prettier than me.

” I'm happy with my decision. I won't change it.” Her eyes sparked with determination. The smile she had on her face it was glowing like a bright star.

” So, a mom huh? Think you can pull that up?” Taking a deep breath, I let out a chuckle.

” Absolutely.” She replied.

It was the beginning of our parenthood. The upcoming months are gonna be tough especially for Stella. So, as her husband I need to make sure that my wife is always cheerful.

So guys I kinda messed up with timeline. I went back to the previous chapters & after doing a rough calculation, I had these results.

Theo and Stella got married around June 19 - 28. Since I hadn't mentioned the month or dates I will keep it that way. Stella found out about her pregnancy around last weeks of April so the kid is coming in January. That's it folks. I'm sorry for ignoring those vitals info's.
