"I'm telling you, Lily, I'm going crazy with this old man! " Jade called out. "I'm just going crazy!" She waved her hands.
"Jade, calm down. " Amused blonde replied. "Tell me calmly, what happened?" She asked gently.
"I'm telling you, Jikyo, laddie, I'm going crazy with this woman! " Andre said, watching Park cook in the kitchen, in the bistro. "I'm going crazy, ay!"
The younger man laughed softly.
"What happened, Andre? " He asked amused, at which the elder sighed and looked seriously at his friend, who took a sip of coffee standing nearby. "Jade is pregnant. " He added, on which Jikyo spat coffee and began to choke. "Oh, my... Jikyo, laddie..." He ran over to him and patted him on the back.
"So Andre thinks you're pregnant? " Liliana asked, who was hanging out with an older friend at their house while their husbands were at work. "And you..."
"I'm not pregnant. " Jade broke into her words. "Although, lately we've, um... You know. " She waved her hand. "We had a nice night together. " She shook her head. "But I'm not pregnant!"
"Are you sure? You were at the doctor? " Wilkinson asked as she sipped her tea.
"You were at the doctor? " Jikyo asked at the same time, the boy still trying to catch his breath after choking on coffee.
"N-no, not yet. " Dubois replied. "You know how she yelled at me as soon as I said that?! " Ge exclaimed, gesticulating with his hands.
"I have no idea, Andre. " Park shook his head, trying to keep a straight face. "What did she say? "
"She said..." He remembered, then shook his head and wiped his face with his hand. "She said I was talking about her being fat! And I just asked if she was pregnant because she had been feeling bad lately and... You know how it is, you have a wife and a son yourself. "
"Mm, I know. " Jikyo nodded and set his coffee aside, thinking it would be risky to drink it again while listening to Andre's story.
"Can you imagine that, Lily?! " Jade called and looked at the blonde who was listening carefully to her words. "Just because I may have gained a few pounds doesn't mean I've... You know. Pregnancy? Pf! " She snorted.
"I'm sure Andre meant no harm." Wilkinson interjected. "He was just worried and... You know..." She waved her hand.
"But pregnancy?! " The older woman said incredulously.
"You should see a doctor. " Liliana said, which caught her attention.
"You should see a doctor. " Jikyo said while looking at Andre. "Just to make sure. " He added quickly. "Buy her some flowers or chocolates and all this anger will pass."
"Maybe you're right..." The older man sighed heavily. "Will you go there with me?" He asked, glancing at Jikyo.
"Will you go there with me? " Jade asked, looking at Lily.
"Of course. " Woman replied.
After a long time, all four of them ended up going to the clinic to find out Jade's results. Little Ben was left in the care of their neighbor, while the young couple stood in the corridor in front of the room where the older couple was. They were curious about the results.
Jikyo and Lily kept their seriousness in the presence of their friends for a long time, but the moment they were alone, they couldn't hold back anymore. The couple started laughing out loud and couldn't control themselves.
"Aaaah..." Jikyo wiped his face and looked at his wife. "It'll be fun if Jade is really pregnant." He laughed.
"If it turns out not, then Jade will definitely give Andre a hard time again for such a compliment." Blonde laughed. "Oh, I haven't laughed so much in a long time. " She walked over to her husband and looked at the cover of the book she had brought with her.
