Permission To Love

21

"What choice?"

Win POV

How do you tell the love of your life the bad decisions you've taken? I'm just worried that after finding out the truth, how will Bright behave? I took a deep breath and held his hands tightly. He gave me a smile and squeezed my hand as a sign for me to start talking.

"Bright please don't be mad okay. Everything I did was to only protect you and that time I had no idea that I was pregnant."

He didn't respond instead he just nodded his head and looked at me with questions in his eyes.

"I uh few days back when I was in the store to buy some supplements, I ran across Gulf and we had a talk" I could already sense the tension in the air between us but I continued anyway. "He brought me in a room and he gave me two choices. He had asked me to leave you and come to him. Or else he would kill you. I couldn't think straight Bright, at that moment I couldn't think of anything but you. I just wanted to protect you So I accepted him and told him I'd come to him after a week but when I found out I was pregnant, I didn't have the nerve to leave you.

I started ignoring his calls and messages and so finally today when you weren't home, he barged in and started being violent towards me. I'm sorry Bright I was being stupid. I don't know what I was thinking I was just"

I was cut off by Bright. His lips made their way towards mine and I was already in paradise. I opened my eyes when I felt his lips parting from me. He had a smile on his face. Bright patted my head and caressed my cheeks affectionately.

"You don't have to be sorry baby. I should have known something was wrong since that day you come home tensed. And always remember that my love for you will always stay the same no matter what happens. I love you Win and I can never thank the god enough for helping me find you. We're married and now we're about to start a new family soon. I promise you I'll protect you and our baby from everything" Bright held my face and kissed my forehead. "No more secrets" he held out his pinky finger towards me and I tangled my pinky finger with his, making a promise. "No more secrets" I said.

We stayed there feeling and enjoying each other's warmth when suddenly I felt a strange pain in my stomach. As if someone had kicked my stomach hard. I groaned in pain and Bright started panicking. "Oh gosh babe are you okay? Are you having labour pain? Is the baby coming out?" I wanted to laugh watching his all panicked but the pain was too much to be distracted by his cuteness.

"Bright calm down. No, the baby isn't coming, I'm only 9 weeks pregnant for god sake. But I do think we need to visit the hospital.."

I put on my coat while Bright was busy finding his car keys. I swear to God this man never remembers anything. "Bright your keys are in your hands" He scratched his neck and held my hand towards the door. We hurried towards the car and he started the car immediately.

I opened the window and started feeling the fresh breeze on my skin. I felt so relieved. I felt like a huge burden has left my back and I was free again. Bright looked my way and gave me a warm smile while muttering "Such a kid" under his breath.

We didn't have to wait long for the doctor since he was one of my father's friend and he had given us permission to visit him anytime we liked. While he started examining my belly, Bright was far in the corner watching over me with anxiety all over his face.

After the sonogram, the doctor smiled at us and told us that there was nothing to be afraid of. "Is the baby really okay doctor? I mean I've been under stress for few days so I'm just worried" I said because when you become a parent you don't want your kid to suffer from anything.

Bright held my shoulder and gave it a squeeze. "There's nothing to worry about Win. Your baby is alright. You've protected it very well but I must say having stress isn't good for the baby. So please refrain from doing anything which will cause you stress or anxiety. Take care of your wife  Bright"

We bid goodbye from the doctor and headed towards a restaurant because I was starving. Apparently I had ordered chicken fried rice, green curry, chili crab, black bean noodles with fried dumplings, mint choco ice cream and a Macha iced latte. Just by Bright's expression I could tell he was shocked and amazed. I mouthed him a what since the waiter was busy jotting down my order.

"Baby are you sure you ordered all that for you? I thought you ordered it for all the customers here." He teased while I shot him with my glare. He chuckled and kissed my knuckles slightly.

Shortly after, our order arrived and I started stuffing myself with food furiously. I noticed Bright smiling while looking at me. "Whut?" I asked while my mouth was stuffed with ice cream and fried rice. He shook his head and leaned forward to wipe my mouth with his thumb. This guy has started watching way too much Korean drama..

I rolled my eyes and continued feasting. Nothing matters anymore when I got delicious food in front of me. I was brought back to reality when I heard someone say my husband's name. I turned my head and saw a young pretty girl, I swear to God she looked like a barbie doll to me.

"Oh my gosh Bright is that you?" She said while smiling widely making me frown in confusion. What is this situation again.

"Devika?! Gosh it has been so long" Bright stood up and they hugged for like 3 seconds. Yes, I counted the seconds...

Devika huh, interesting...
