Khai's P.O.V
" Khai," She mumbled. Her hand landed in my face. "Khai!"
"Yes?" I caught a hold of her hand before she could hit me.
"I feel awful ," she grumbled .
"Sorry,"I yawned and shook her hand.
" Did you just shake my hand?"
"Sleep."
"I would if I could. I feel so uncomfortable."
"Mhmm ...Horrible."
"My feet hurt."
"Put them up ."
"My back hurts."
"You can put it up too."
"What?"
"You can figure it out you are so smart," I yawned as I rolled over.
My eyes slowly opened. I covered my face with my hands. I sighed as I slowly got up. I have never felt this tired before.
"Is It morning already?" My sense of time was lost. I stretched trying to get rid of the sleep from my body but it felt like I got sleepier. I drop myself back down. I rolled over and realized there was no one beside me. I stretched my hands out and felt around me but she was not there. I got up and scanned the room but I could barely see as my vision was still clouded from sleep.
"Kiya?" I yawned but there was no reply. "Kiya?" I tried calling again but there was no reply. I rubbed my face and tried to wake myself up. I prepared to come off when I paused suddenly when I saw her right under my feet. I felt like my heart stopped for a moment. I quickly gathered myself and carefully stepped over her. The first thought that came to mind was that she fell off. I knelt down beside her and lifted her up. She stirred in my arms and and placed her on the bed.
"Kiya?" I called her softly.
"Hmm?" She groaned.
"Why were you in the ground?"
"I could not sleep."
"So you went on the ground."
"I told you that I felt horrible and my feet and back hurt and you told me to put my back up."
" I said that?"
" Yes you did."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course I am sure. You told me that I could figure it out because I am so smart."
"Really?" I covered my face. "That was definitely the sleep."
"I walked around until I got tired. I just sat down where I stopped and here we are now."
"Are you sure?"
"I swear if you ask me that one more time..."
" Calm down. I almost stepped on you. My heart almost stopped."
" Ughhh. That was irresponsible of me. I just fell asleep as I sat down."
"Just please be careful next time ," I paused. "No, please do not let there be a next time of this."
"I know... I will," she sighed.
"Still tired?"
" I honestly do not how I feel anymore."
I could tell she was still upset over the entire situation.
It was hard to keep a smile on her face. Silently crying when ever she thought she was alone. I did not know how to take it and I have no idea how to help her. It hurts to be by her side helpless, unable to do anything. These days she is a shell of her former self. I think her tears have finally ran out so instead of cry she just stares emotionlessly in space."I am always here for you... you know that?"
"Of course I know," she sighed.
"I something will happen Kiya, just wait on it."
"This is tearing me apart."
"Something will happen and everything will be how it is suppose to be."
"I will be waiting on that ."
"So are you going back to sleep?"
"I suppose."
~~~~~~~~~~
"You know it keeps running through my mind that I almost stepped on her."
"It keeps running through my mind that you told her to put her back up. How does one do that ? Did you explain? Can you explain?"
"I was sleeping ! I do not even remember half the things she said that I said to her. I am just telling you what she told me."
"Time is ticking down. When the baby is born you might not know what sleep is. You might not remember how to do it."
"Let me not think about that right now. We shall cross that bridge when we get there."
"I agree but the mental preparation should be there."
"Everything will get better and go back to normal."
"It will My Lord, I believe everything will."
"I just want her to-" I was cut off with a scream.
"Who is that!" Amenei looked at me startled.
"That is Kiya!" I ran off. My heart felt like it stopped. Every possible scenario ran through my head including the fact that feeling like my heart is stopping so many times in one day is dangerous.
"Kiya what is wrong ? What happened? Are you fine? " I bombarded her with questions.
She sat up in the bed with tears flooding her face almost hyperventilating.
"Kiya talk to me!" She looked at me and placed her hands on her stomach as she sobbed uncontrollably.
"Kiya please stop scaring me."
"I felt him," she whispered .
"What? " I went quickly to her she said.
"He is there, I can feel him right now."
"Really?"
"Yes ," she placed my hand on her stomach. " Your son is right here. Can you feel him?"
"He is right here! I can feel him! I felt him! Is right there." I could barely keep myself together.
"Feel my baby, my baby is here with me." She broke down and I hugged her as she cried in my arms.
I glimpsed Amenei leaning against the door frame almost breathless and holding his chest.
"See... My ... Lord... Every... thing ... will ...be ... fine," Amenei said between breaths."
I have never felt happier in my life. My baby was fine and for the first time in many day I saw the love of my life truly happy.
