"Could you calm down for a second!
" said Venny, feeling uncomfortable with Lucas, who seemed to be too much in dealing with the problems that had happened to his wife.
n
"You're so loud and distracting, Lucas!
" sarcasm Venny again while staring intently at Lucas' face who was panicking.
nYes, Venny and Lucas were so close that there was no longer any awkward feeling between the two. Even Venny bravely mocked and scolded Lucas like that, without fearing that his best friend would feel angry and resentful.
n
"Are you crazy, Venny? How can I be calm when my wife is in such a helpless state?
" Lucas said not wanting to lose, without fading the worried expression on his face in the slightest.
nMeanwhile, Ellena felt more and more nauseous in her stomach. She wanted to spit something out over and over again when she saw Lucas come back and stand not far from her. However, nothing came out of her throat in the slightest. However, she really felt very nauseous.
nEllena just watched the debate between Lucas and Venny while covering her mouth with her left hand, trying to block something that might come out of there at any time without being prevented.
n
"Do you know what happened to your wife?
" asked Venny, looking at Lucas with a questioning look.
n
"Se-she's been throwing up, isn't he?
" Lucas asked back slightly stunned as if unsure.
n
"Yes and it's because of you!
" said Venny in annoyance.
"Shut up! I'll check further, she added as she re-examined Ellena's condition.
n
"Okay, I'll be quiet,
" Lucas whispered, relenting.
n
"Were you often like this before?
" asked Venny just to make sure, even though, she could already guess what was going on with Ellena.
n
"No. This is the first time I've vomited like this. I feel very sick to my stomach, even though I don't eat strange foods,
" Ellena explained in a low tone, a sign that she was very weak.
n
"When was the last time you had your period?
" asked Venny and managed to make Ellena stunned for a moment as if she was thinking.
nMeanwhile, Lucas just watched Ellena, without saying anything. Remembering Venny who had given him a slight threat, he chose to remain silent.
n'I forgot, when was the last time I had my period? But, since left home two months ago, I haven't had my period again.
" Ellena muttered to herself as she thought back.
n
"Seems like two months ago. Why?
" said Elena a little doubtfully. He looked at Venny questioningly.
n
"How can you only feel this after two months?
" Venny whispered flatly, then took the medicine from the fairly large bag she carried. His flagship bag as a doctor, contains medicines and several medical examination tools.
n
"What happened to him, Venny? Why do you say that? Is he seriously ill?
" Lucas immediately asked with great enthusiasm.
n
"You just shut up, I'll explain later when I'm done checking it out!
" Venny answered with emphasis that made Lucas even more curious.
n
"Argh.
" Lucas sighed in frustration.
n
"Lucas, can you just come out? I can't help but feel like throwing up, every time I see you!
" Ellena said with her left hand still covering her mouth.
nIt suddenly made Lucas round in disbelief. How could Ellena say something like that to her. Was he that disgusting that he could make Ellena feel nauseous?
n
"What do you mean, Honey?
" Lucas stared blankly at Elena's face. He really did not accept the woman's statement which was quite painful for ebook deh. How could Ellena, who incidentally is hee wife, have such a cruel mouth.
n
"You have the heart to kick me out like this. I am your husband. We were not a few minutes ago a happy couple? Why did you change so quickly, ha? I will not leave you in this state!
" Lucas said at length. Don't care about Ellena's very annoying request. Ah, he's a little disappointed. Really.
n
"Hey, from now on you have to do whatever he wants!
" said Venny, who had been staring blankly at Lucas who was standing beside him.
n
"What do you mean? Why are you defending him, ha? You're really annoying Venny. I'm disappointed to have a friend like you!
" Lucas was irritated even more by the two women who were very close to him.
n
"It's up to you, Lucas! I'm just speaking the truth,
" replied Venny not wanting to lose.
n
"When did I disobey him? Whatever he asked for, I always did. Have you forgotten who I am?
" Lucas sarcasm so arrogantly.
n
"Then why are you still here? Didn't your wife ask you to come out?
"
n
"You-
"
n
"What is this?
" Briana's appearance immediately caught their attention.
n
"Elle, what are you doing?
" Briana's gaze immediately focused on Ellena who was lying on the bed with a face that looked deathly pale.
nIn a bit of a hurry, Briana approached Ellena with an expression that looked panicked. I don't know where duhi tkhe went so he only found out about his daughter's condition after a few minutes had passed.
n
"What are you doing, Elle?
" Briana asked again pitifully, after standing right next to Ellena.
n
"I'm fine, Mom. Just a little nauseous,
" Ellena replied, still trying to keep her mouth shut.
n
"Is it because you have stomach problems?
" Briana asked as she looked at Ellena for a moment, then turned to Venny who she believed to be a doctor. It was clear from the appearance of the woman who was wearing a white coat and a bag filled with several kinds of medicine.
nBriana seemed to demand an explanation from Venny. However, before Venny had time to explain, suddenly Ellena's voice was a little deafening.
n
"Lucas, can you get out of here? Hueeeek!
" Ellena immediately shooed Lucas away again, when suddenly her stomach felt even more queasy, especially when she saw her husband in the room.
n
"Honey, what's wrong with you? Why are you kicking me out like this? What did I do to you, honey?
" Lucas was getting worse and worse. He really didn't understand Ellena's current condition.
n
"Yes, Elle. Why did you kick your husband out like that?
" Briana asked as she looked at her daughter in surprise, who was trying to hold back the nausea that was growing in her stomach. He then looked back, focusing his eyes on Lucas who was standing two steps away from him.
n
"Of course you're at fault, Lucas!
" replied Venny chimed in.
n
"Oh **! What do you mean? Why do you keep blaming me, huh?
" Lucas cursed angrily.
n
"Yeah, because she's pregnant! Who else is at fault if not you, Lucas!
"
n
"What?
" Lucas was shocked. Instantly his eyes seemed to glaze over, holding back emotion. Can't believe what he just heard from Venny's mouth. How he was very happy if his friend's statement was the truth.
nNot only Lucas, even Ellena and Briana seemed flabbergasted by the good news. However, they really still don't believe Venny's statement.
n
"Venny, can you repeat what you said?
" Lucas seemed to be tilting his head, listening carefully.
n
"You heard right, Lucas. Your wife is indeed pregnant and she has reached two months of pregnancy,
" Venny explained quietly, smiling at her face.
n
"Are you sure, Venny?
" Lucas' eyes filled with tears and a big smile appeared on his face.
n
"Doctor, are you serious? I'm pregnant?
" Elena tried to confirm again. His expression was not much different from Lucas. In fact, a drop of tears seemed to fall just like that, when Venny answered his question with a nod of his head.
n
"Oh my God, Mom… I'm pregnant,
" Ellena whispered as she looked at Briana full of emotion.
n
"I'm glad to hear that, Elle. Finally, I will have grandchildren soon. Congratulations to both of you. Happy Mother.
" Briana replied with great enthusiasm. Don't forget his bright smile.
n
"That means I will soon have children and become a father?
" Lucas was still staring at Venny, as if taken aback by the good news.
n
"Yes, Lucas,
" Venny answered shortly, nodding his head.
nLucas reflexively turned to Ellena. Look at the woman's happiness. Didn't think that the fruit of love that he had hoped for would soon be achieved.
n
"Honey, we'll soon have—
"
n
"Stop! Don't come any closer!
" concluded Ellena as she raised her hand, holding Lucas who was just about to move closer to her.
n
"Why, honey? I just wanted to hug you,
" Lucas said with a disappointed expression.
n
"No! I don't want to be near you, Lucas! You make me sick!
" Ellena said firmly that she still didn't allow Lucas to approach her, even though her husband had already carried out his responsibilities as a husband.
n
"But why, honey?
" Lucas asked still surprised.
n
"Whatever the reason, I still don't want you anywhere near me. I'm sick, Lucas! Hueeek!
"
n
"But-
"
n
"Never mind, Lucas. You better get out. Poor wife, let her rest first,
" concluded Venny trying to persuade Lucas.
nAfter repeated persuasion, Lucas complied with Ellena's request. He came out of his room together with Venny.
n
"Venny, you have to explain to me, why is Ellena like that?
" Lucas whispered as he walked side by side with Venny.
n
"What else should I explain, Lucas? In fact, there are pregnant women who are like that. They don't want to be approached by their own husbands, often feel disgusted or even hated,
" explained Venny, speaking frankly.
n
"Are you lying, Venny?
" Lucas reflexively stopped his steps, giving him a look of disbelief.
nJust like Lucas, Venny also stopped his steps, staring sadly at his friend who was wearing a pitiful expression. He then sighed, as if at a loss to face Lucas.
n
"How could I lie. In fact there are such things. Not just Ellena, but many.
"
n
"Oh Godness!
" Lucas slapped his own forehead as if frustrated.
n
"How long does it usually take?
" Lucas asked, looking expectantly.
n
"Unpredictable. Maybe Ellena could be like that until she gives birth.
"
n
"What?
"
