Chapter 493 - Four Hundred And Ninety-three: He Spoke From His Heart (2/2)
”Sabotaging what? I'm only giving him practical ideas. I knew from the start that you women would never agree with men's view on pregnancy,” Niklaus claimed.
”Alright, this is,” Reina stood up, ” If this is you rebelling because I refused us having another baby, then you should know it's not going to work,” she told him pointedly.
”Oh boy,” Emerald shrunk back into his seat. How had their conversation escalated into a fight between couples? Maybe he shouldn't have bothered them.
”I'm not petty enough to resort to this method and you of all people knows that,” Niklaus replied coolly compared to the heaving Reina.
Reina bit back her words. If Niklaus wanted to get her pregnant, he could do that in many ways - whether she was on the shots or not. Reina guessed she was just a tad bit sensitive about the
”pregnancy” issue considering she and Niklaus have been going over it for days.
”I'm sorry. I took this too personally,” Reina apologized, fidgeting with her hands.
”I know,” Niklaus reached out and pulled her to him, ”I'm sorry as well for seeming too nonchalance about the discomfort pregnant women go through. The truth is that pregnant women are a blessing to us men and I couldn't ask for anyone else to be the mother of my children but you,” He kissed her on the forehead.
”Aww, that's so wonderful,” Emerald fawned over him yet sassed at them, ”But that doesn't answer my question! How do I become a good husband and a father!” he had reached the end of his patience.
”Emerald,” Reina called him, ”There's no formula or procedure to be a good husband other than what you have been doing so far,”
”Alright, I'm a bit lost now,” Emerald rubbed the side of his head. This was not what he wanted to hear. Take a look at them - Niklaus and Reina - they were one perfect couple, surely they must have a secret to their happiness.
Niklaus took over, ”What my wife is trying to say is that as far as you love Cecil, that's enough. You can't hurt the person you love - your heart cannot take it,”
”Oh,” He finally got his point.
”And fatherhood?” Niklaus went on, ”Trust me, that's fucked up. You don't need a set of techniques to be a father because once you set your eyes on your little one? Trust me, the instincts kick in naturally. The feeling of joy swells in your chest and you feel it strongly in your bones that you want to give your little angel the best of your love, attention, v for. When you act on that feeling, my man? That's called being a good father, ”
No one said a word as soon as Niklaus finished his emotional speech. Reina felt teary-eyed, upon the fact Niklaus had not spent seven years with the kids, nevertheless, he loved them. Those words were from the bottom of his heart.
Emerald felt the sincerity of his words, Niklaus had spoken from the bottom of his heart. He smiled, it had not been a waste to come here after all.
