Onalerona's POV
Five months later...

"Here's a pillow for you." says Nkosikhona and i let out a little smile. I sit up straight and he places the pillow behind me and i sit back and sigh. "Thank you i really needed it." I say. He climbs the bed and lays between my legs. He lifts my t-shirt up and gives my belly a kiss. Its very much visible now.

I had to quit working at the club and I couldn't be more glad because I am finally free from Mvelo's creepy behaviour. I didn't bother telling Nkosikhona because he never bothered me again after that whole 'we could be more' and I knew I was leaving the club soon

We haven't told either of our families about the pregnancy but I know his mother knows because she suspected it and after Nkosikhona confirmed it she has been supportive but from a distance. At some point we have to tell them because I am six months pregnant and I need to go back home. I am nervous about how its going to go down but I don't want to think about it now.

"Hi my little baby. You have been quiet today and i need to feel you kick so i know that you are okay." he says and I chuckle. His latest obsession now is feeling the baby's kick. I can't believe that he has come around so quickly. I feel like he is even more excited than me. "Give the baby a break he only moved once. Plus he will be more active in the third trimester."

"But the doctor said they start kicking from 16 weeks and above and you are 24 weeks so now is the time to be active." he says and i laugh. "Can you please give my baby a chance to learn to kick and to not feel pressurized by his own father." I say and he rolls his eyes. "I want to feel him kick again that moment felt special to me." I smile. "I know but be patient."

He sighs and it causes me to chuckle. "Come give me a kiss maybe it will make you feel better." I say. He pulls my t-shirt down and moves closer to my face and i kiss him. My poor baby wants to feel his baby kick so bad. It was kind of unexpected to feel him kick and when he felt it too he shed some few tears.

Its very rare to see or hear Nkosikhona cry or shed a few tears so this moment meant a lot to him. We pull apart from the kiss to catch our breaths and he rests his head on my chest. "I think i won't just be raising this baby but i will be raising you too." I say and he chuckles. "I am not a baby." I chuckle. "But you acting like one."

"Mxm." I laugh. "But i love this gentle and caring side the baby is bringing out. I hope it stays like that forever." I say. "Me too. I am thinking I should sit them down next weekend and tell them about the pregnancy. Everybody sees that you are pregnant they just don't know who made you pregnant." "Are you ready though?"

"Yes i am ready. I can't keep him hidden forever and my mom wants to be apart of the pregnancy journey she hates that she has to show love from afar." he says. "If you are ready its fine I will also talk to my family next weekend." I say. "Thank you for being patient with me." "Love is patient and kind." "Okay Ms. Preacher." I roll my eyes and chuckle.

"You bore me Nkosikhona." I say and he chuckles. "You still love me at the end of the day. What should i make for dinner?" he asks. "I will eat phuthu and milk i don't want anything serious." "Serious food makes you vomit anyways." I chuckle. "But i miss eating the foods I normally eat. I hate the fact that my diet had to change a lot because of this pregnancy."

"Nami i hate that its like this and i don't like seeing you vomit." he says. "I still have another three months so i need to make myself comfortable with the morning sickness and awful smells that make me nauseous." I say and he sighs. "I will make the phuthu pap later on cause its easy." "Okay."
