Mr Wife ☑️

chapter 32: Kiss and confess

Eco's POV

"Baby!"

Not just my movements but my heart too stops as I hear Sky's voice. Baby? Did he call me baby? Me?

"You said when the day comes where I give a nickname to you, I should call you baby. I'm calling you now. I'm going to call you baby from now on." He yells like a manic.

My heart and mind got stuck at his words. My heart is beating at crazy speed, I'm scared that it'll jump out of my body with how excited it's feeling. My hold on the cat gets loosen and it jumps down before going further inside my room.

"Baby?" He calls again and my heart literally drops as I fall flat on the floor.

"Eco, are you okay?" He asks worriedly as he sits next to me and checks me.

I turn and gaze at him in shock. I don't utter a word, it's like my mouth got stitched and went silent.

"Why aren't saying anything? Are you fine?" He queries, he expects me to be fine after him calling me baby?

"Baby..." He calls me again and I lose my shit.

"Ahhhh!" I scream loudly, not in anger or fear but in excitement, "stop, please."

My heart will explode anytime if he continues to call me baby. I'm having a mental breakdown as of now already.

"What's wrong? You don't like it? But you were the one who said I should call you baby." He seems a little lost and sad.

"I know I was one but give me a damn minute. It's all too much for me." I breath out heavily.

"Come on, first sit properly and then talk." He says and helps me to get up before taking me to the bed.

He makes me sit and sits next to me. The cat he brought is sitting at one corner with a bored expression and almost dozed off. Seems more lazy than me. There a water bottle on the bed table, I grab that and gulp down the water in one sip. We just sit in silence for a while until Sky is the first one to talk.

"Are you okay now?" He questions and I look at him.

"Did you lose your mind? Or are you not Sky? Maybe his duplicate? Or I'm imagining things because of not seeing you for days? I know for sure my husband, the one I married will never call me baby. He feels it's cringey and whatnot." I blabber nonsense, I know it's nonsense but I can't think better.

"Eco, baby," baby again and my heart did a summer solt, "I didn't lose my mind or anything. I'm your husband. You were the one who told me to call you baby when time comes and now the time has come. You gave me time to realise the relationship status between us and I got the clarity of it."

"And what clarity you got?" Just tell me so that I'll also have some clarity because I'm loosing my sanity as of right now.

"You still didn't understand what I'm feeling?" He questions me instead of answering me.

"No." I state confused. So now I should actually understand what he feels without him saying it out.

"I have the same feelings as what you have towards me." He states with a smile.

The feelings I've towards him? I love him. Does he mean he started loving me as well?

I just stare at him as if I discovered a new wonder of the world and he nods his head at me with a little shy smile.

Without a second delay, I bring my hand up and give a hard smack on his head.

"Ouch!" He yell out in pain, "Eco, why did you hit me?" He queries while rubbing his head where I hit him.
