MARA'S POV
Since the day that Maru found out about my pregnancy, he became a more caring husband.
Sometimes he's being overacting, but I will not deny the fact that I like what he is doing now.
I feel so loved and complete.
And how I wish that all of this is true.
I always long for love. Sometimes, I wish that Maru and I will end up loving each other, though I know for a fact that it will be impossible to happen.
Nevertheless, I am very thankful to God, that He gave me this great blessing.
My baby, my love.
I will give him/her all my love.
I was busy with my world when I saw my husband entering my office.
"Daydreaming again, wife?" He said, teasing me.
I just rolled my eyes.
He is right though. Ever since I found out about my pregnancy, I often daydream about our child and our family.
It's good to have a dream like this.
I feel like with my baby with me, I am allowed to dream like this.
You know the feeling that finally, your life will now have a purpose.
"TSK wife!"
I was back to reality when I heard my husband's irritating voice.
I just chuckled and went to him and kiss him. That is my way or trick to calm him.
I know he likes it because his mood change in a snap.
"Let's go now, wife?" He asked.
I smile and nodded to him.
We will be having dinner with our parents.
We haven't told them about my pregnancy yet. And we plan to tell them about it tonight.
"What do you think will be their reaction?" I asked my husband curiously.
"I bet they will be very glad. My dad keeps on bugging me. He even teased me that I'm such a weak guy." He said then chuckled.
"Weak?"
"Yes. He's wondering why until now you are not yet pregnant."
I can see the proud expression on his face.
I just shook my head.
Boys will always be boys.
We arrived at the Ottave mansion.
I saw my parent's car. I suddenly feel excited. Maybe because of the hormone again? I have never been close to them, so I guess, I'm right?
Maru and I are both excited to tell them the news.
He opens the car door for me and held my hand as I went out of the car.
We hold hands while entering their mansion.
I've seen this before and it never failed to amaze me.
Their mansion is a masterpiece.
We heard laughter as we reach the living room. Upon seeing us, both our moms went to us.
"Hi Mara, it's good to see you again!" Mommy Becca hugged me. (Maru's mom)
"Hi, my lovely daughter! I miss you!" My mom said then she hugs me tight.
"Since everybody is here, we can now go to the dining room." Daddy Andy(Maru's dad) said.
All of us nodded in agreement.
We all went to the dining room.
As usual, we talk about business.
"Mara you are blooming today. Don't get me wrong Mara, you are beautiful even before but tonight you look more beautiful and in love?!" Mommy Becca said teasing me.
Her teasing caught everyone's attention.
My face is heated because of the attention that I am getting.
"It only shows how good I am at taking care of my wife. Right wife?" Maru said teasing me.
"Whatever!" I rolled my eyes.
Everyone laughed.
I look at my mom. I saw her smile. And that made me smile.
"I'm glad to see the smile on your face. We all know that we are the ones who force the two of you to marry." My mom's eyes are teary.
"Mom" I called her.
"And I honestly want to thank you for that Mom," Maru said to my mom.
"Marrying her is one of the best things that happened in my life."
My eyes widen. I felt joy in my heart.
"Thank you, Maru for that." My dad said.
"No, dad. Thank you for entrusting your daughter to me."
I was so overwhelmed with what I am hearing now.
"And I think this is the perfect time to tell you great news." Maru started his speech.
We saw eagerness and curiosity in them.
My husband holds my hand.
He looked at me and assure me that everything is fine.
"My wife and I will be having a baby!" He proudly announced.
All of them were shocked by the news.
"Wait wait Mara you're pregnant?" My dad asked to confirm what he just heard.
I nodded nervously.
"Congratulations Mara!" Mommy Becca went to me and gave me a warm hug.
After Mommy Becca, all of them came to me to hug and congratulate me and Maru.
I can't explain the happiness that I am feeling right now.
Everything is perfect.
I never thought that this kind of feeling is possible.
I touch my belly. "Thank you, baby."
