CHAPTER 12

Time flies fast. It was as if yesterday that Kongpob knew that he had another life living inside him. Soon it was the last stages of his third semester of pregnancy. Yesterday Kongpob had his last ultrasound scan. The baby was very healthy and active, Kongpob could feel it throughout the third semester. Priya had told the delivery date for Kongpob, but she also mentioned that it is not necessary for the delivery should be held on the confirmed date.
Kongpob always had breathing trouble the past few weeks as his belly had grown more big than last time. He always feels the moment of the baby in his stomach, he also have back and thigh pains. But the great matter that he cannot afford is that, he cannot sleep at night. Kongpob always feel suffocated when he started to lay on bed for sleep. He only sleeps in the morning much as he unable to sleep at night.
Arthit could feel the bed moving. Arthit had become very cautious nowadays even in his sleeps as to protect his pregnant husband. Arthit opened his eyes and looked at Kongpob who hold his belly and trying to stand up from the bed . Arthit sat up on his bed "Kong what happened? Do you need anything?" Arthit asked concerned. Kongpob looked at him with puppy eyes. "I want to go for a walk" Kongpob said in a pleading tone because he know that if Arthit knew about he will not agree with it until he joins with him. Arthit looked at the clock and it showed 3 in the morning. "But Kong it is really late now. You need to have sleep baby. I will take you for a walk in the morning" Arthit exclaimed calmly. Kongpob looked at Arthit in irritation "P, I can't even sleep properly because of the his constant moving" Kongpob said pointing at his belly. "And now you are telling me to sleep huh? I want to walk P'Arthit." Kongpob demanded. Arthit sighed as he thought that there is no use in arguing with Kongpob since it may end up Kongpob crying. Arthit then agreed to him but also mentioned that he would join with him even if he is damm tired.

Kongpob and Arthit walked around their large garden for almost 9times till Kongpob sat down in the bench near the tree. Kongpob had his jacked covered up his  body as it was chilly outside. Arthit looked at him in concern when he held his belly and pressing his lips together like enduring a pain. Arthit caressed Kongpob's forehead. "Kongpob are you okay honey?" Arthit asked sweetly trying not to show his concerned face. Kongpob looked at him and smiled "It is nothing P. Just as before , our baby is really active I suppose" Kongpob said trying to cheer up from the pain he is feeling in his abdomen. Arthit smiled and asked him to return inside the house as the weather is chilly. Kongpob was not at all ready for the sleep because of his uncomfortable state, but Arthit forced him to sleep as it is very important for a pregnant person. Kongpob snuggled closer to Arthit's chest making himself comfortable, soon he was drifted into his Dreamland.

Kongpob opened his eyes feeling the place near him already cold. It had been like this since Kongpob had reached in his second semester of pregnancy. Arthit was always the one who woke up first, he always cooked and does all jobs in the house. Kongpob told his P'Arthit that he can manage it but Arthit insisted to do everything saying that he wanted both his baby and his mommy to be safe. Kongpob slowly sat up from the bed whining when the pain hit his body. "Baby boy please don't make mommy in pain na. Mommy feels really tired" Kongpob speaking caressing his belly and smiling. Kongpob holds on the head set of the bed and stands up carefully holding his belly. He then walks towards the bathroom to freshen up.

After he freshens up Kongpob walks downstairs where he could meet his P. He smiles when he saw Arthit placing their breakfast on the table with an apron on his body. "Good Morning P'Arthit" Kongpob greets as he walks closer to Arthit. Arthit smiles as he hears his husband's sweet voice. Arthit kissed Kongpob softly and then kisses Kongpob's belly "Hope that much baby boy would be a nice kid to mommy today" Arthit says as he moved away from Kongpob's belly after he placed his ear to observe the moment inside the belly. Kongpob smiles at the daddy actions of his P'Arthit. After on wards they ate their breakfast while sometimes Kongpob would talk about what the baby's name should be. It has been almost one week since they are discussing this topic but both haven't come to a final decision yet.
