"Uhm..." Dayu took a deep breath as another spasm hit him, starting from his hips, the pain travelled all around his waist and up on his spine.
The pain had just started but, the it is getting too painful too quickly. It was nothing like the maternity books he had read; which stated that the pain will start at twenty minutes or so apart and will gradually pick up the pace. But it didn't have a pace with Dayu. It went straight to full blown labor pain.
This is not good. Dayu thought as he sat up, and eased to the edge of the bed before the pain start again. If the pain comes, he wouldn't be able to move at all. Even now, he's already starting to sweat and his body is trembling with the anticipation of the pain.
"Dayu..?" Qing's grandmother who went out for a moment, came back and saw Dayu gripping the bed, hunching his body in the familiar form of pain. She gasped and opened the door, shouting to the bodyguards standing close by, "get the President..We are going to the hospital," she said, "it's time."
Madam Wang then looked at the head Butler as the helpers who were assigned to Dayu rushed into the room without being called, "call the hospital. Inform them that we're coming..!"
The helpers came to Dayu's side helping him to stand up. Madam Wang went to Dayu's side, and put her arms around Dayu's waist.
But they got no sooner than two feet away before Qing appeared at the door, slamming the door open; almost broken it off its hinges.
"Dayu!!!" Qing saw Dayu, breathing hard and sweating and obviously in great pain, and he almost lost his mind. He ran towards Dayu and took Dayu into his arms, picking him up princess style and began walking quickly, to get Dayu out of the house into the waiting chopper outside.
Madam Wang sighed as she shook her head, seeing Qing's near panic state.
"Madame.." one of the helper appeared with the bag, which the President's wife and the President had prepared, for time when they need to go to the hospital.
"Come, quickly!" Madam Wang said, as she and the helpers followed the President to the chopper.
"Can't we go faster than this!!!" Qing demanded at the chopper pilot, as once again Dayu gripped his arms, indicating another attack of pain. And it's the tenth time, in five minutes. Dayu's pain came every thirty seconds now. Qing's not comfortable with that. And he's not strong enough to see Dayu in pain. His strong Dayu was very seldom in pain. Despite being pregnant Dayu was still strong and resilient until now. As of now; Dayu felt as though, his pelvic bones, were being smashed into thousand of tiny pieces everytime the labor pain hit him. It was that bad.
"We are almost there, Mr President." The pilot replied, hurriedly, as he had the landing ground of the hospital, in sight, finally. Everybody in the chopper had not been able to say anything, as everybody was afraid of the President's mood. The President's wife was in labor pain, and the President was feeling everything with him. Even the Elder herself was not confident to talk with the President at the moment.
