Breathless Love | Asensio

Chapter 48

Few weeks later:

I was at the office doing some paperwork when a knock on my door sounded. "Yes come in." I raised my head waiting to see who it was.

"Ma'am," Elena peeked her head in. "You said you'd like to go for an apointment at 12pm. This is," we both looked at our time. "It's past 10." She concluded.

"Okay thanks Elena. You may leave." I said to her.

I got up from my seat, closed my laptop, picked up my bag and ventured out of my office, closing it.

On my way out of the building, i greeted a few colleagues who worked downstairs. Getting to the car, i dropped my bag in the passenger's seat and propped myself onto the drivers seat. Tapping the ignition, I reverse the car and drive onto the road. I was on my way to see a doctor.

Lately, i have been having weird feelings in my body. So I decided to check what's wrong. Marco was back from the tour so he was basically back home.

"Congratulations, Mrs Asensio, you are carrying a young child." She smiled extensively after i waited for the results.

"I'm what?" I gasped.

"Pregnant."

The word kept ringing in my ear. I was going to be a parent. No wonder all these things have been happening to me.

Oh my Lord. I am Pregnant.

"Here is the report." She gave me the envelope. "Congrats once again."

I smiled at her, happily. "Thank you." I got up and left.

I kept thinking. Finally! I was very happy. Ecstatic. Marco will be thrilled.

Arriving in the garage of the house, i noticed the car Marco took out this morning was not there. He's not back yet.

I wanted to tell him in a surprising way.

Quickly getting into the house, i dropped my purse on the table and checked the fridge if there was something i could hurridly cook before he got back.

I saw some ingredients and immediately thought of a dish. PAELLA. My own Version of a spanish Paella. This was going to be good.

Beginning the preparation, i did everything i could use to make up a quick sweet meal. Marco loves a nice Paella.

Everything was done within 45 minutes. I kept it in the pot so it could chill out a bit. Cleared the kitchen and ran upstairs to get a shower.

After that, i changed into shorts and a black and white stripped top. This would be good. I had a pregnancy test taken so i got the kit out with the two lines. I placed it in a small box and went downstairs.

I let my hair loose and straightened it. My phone chimed and i saw a message alert.

'I'll be home in a minute, babe :)' Marco had sent it. I smiled to myself.

Setting the table with happiness in my spirit, i placed the pot, two of each cutlery, glasses, water and wine.

Then the door opened and there stood my husband. As soon as i saw him, i ran to him and he picked me up.

"Woah, someone is happy to see me." We shared a kiss and he smiled. "What is the surprise?" He looked at me suspiciously.

"Can't i be happy to see my husband?" I said.

"Oh.... kay.." Marco put on a black shirt with shorts. He just came back from Marcelo's house where the guys gathered to play games.

"I made dinner." I pulled him to the dining table.

"Wow. I knew something was up." He kissed me again.

I laughed. "You haven't seen anything yet then."

We sat down. "I'm starving. What did you make?" He grinned.

"Guess."

He hesitated for a minute, studying my face. "Paella?"

We both lauughed. "How did you know?"

"Only on special occasions do i get to eat your version of paella which is amazing!"

"That touched my heart."

He gave me a peck. "Let's dig in." He rubbed his palms together. I served the food and we started eating.

Halfway through eating and talking, i decide to reveal the news.

"Um.. babe, i have something to tell you or rather, show you." I began.

He used the serviette to wipe his mouth. "Yeah, what is that?"

"I'm coming." I got up and i could feel his eyes on me. Reaching for the box, i took it and sat down.

"Open it." I uttered. He glanced at me before opening it. He brought it out.

"What is this?" He asked, obviously not knowing what it was.

"What do you see on it?" I smiled.

"You are acting strange with all this smiles. What's up?"

"What do you see babe?" I asked again.

"Literally?" I nodded. "I see... two lines?" He gazed back at me.

"Do you know what that means?"

"No. What's with all the questions?" He drank out of his wine glass.

"Check behind."

He turned to look behind him. "There's nothing there." He said. I snorted.

"Marcooo!" I yelled.

He laughed. "I'm... sorry. My bad." He said in between laughs. "Fine, i'll check." Marco turned over the pregnancy test.

Boldly written on it was, 'We're going to be parents.'

Marco gulped.

He stared at me.. "I'm pregnant." I smiled.

Marco kept silent for minutes. "Y-you're.. p-pregnant?" He winced.

"Yes." He stood up and backed me. I got confused. What's happening?

I went to him and turned him to face me. Marco was shedding tears and laughing at the same time. I couldn't stop myself. I wiped my eyes, a tear falling off.

"Babyy..." i slowly mumbled.

"I'm so happy you don't even know how." He sniffed. "I love you so much. I can't believe it. Thank you Lord. After three years..."

"I love you too." We embraced and he held me tightly. Then pulled away. Marco went to kiss my belly.

"I already love you too." He placed his hand there and we kissed once more.
