Chapter nineKatherine POV
**
"Hurry up or we will be late" Lavi had called out to me from the outside.
I'm not able to reach the zip of my skirt at the moment. I can barely bend not to mention been able to zip it. My belly has grown even bigger in this one month that has gone by.
Lavi has bought this same pair a month ago and now, it's not even my size anymore.
Hell...
"You might wanna come help me out with this" I called back at him as I gave up trying to reach it on my own.
"What happened? Are you okay princess?" Lavi had rushed in and knelt before me on the bed.
"I can't seem to reach my zip..can you help?"
I got up on my feet as he tried to zip it a few times but couldn't.
"I can't zip it myself and I don't want to force it either. You have grown bigger eh" he said with a thoughtful look on his face.
"This is the only ones I have that is close to fitting. What do I do now"
He walked over to his shoe by the corner and pulled out his shoe lace and strode over to where I stood sulking like a child.
"Don't worry my lady...I will fix this for you okay?"
I replied with a nod.
Pulling the cotton blouse over my belly. He began to lace the rope through the belt holder of my skirt and tied it into a knot in front.
"That will keep your skirt from falling off and you don't have to worry about taking it off anymore" he assured me with a smile on his face.
Adjusting the skirt properly around my waist. I realized it was much more comfortable than when I would wear it with the zip up.
Gosh.. .
"You're a genius my darling" with a quick peck to his cheek.
"I know princess. Now c'mon let hurry before you are late for your appointment"
Lavi has been accompanying me to the health center for my antenatal check ups. He makes sure I keep to all of them since the doctor usually comes around once in a while.
Putting on my shoes that barely fit my legs that has become all swollen for the pass month now. I hurried after him.
I bet the pregnancy is to blame for what my feet is facing at the moment.
I hurried after him as we head out that morning. It was barely 9am and the weather was still at its best all thanks to the sun who hasn't risen from its slumber yet.
The health center was just two street from ours but Lavi had insisted on boarding the bus to save up for the time we had wasted already and I couldn't argue.
Getting to the hospital in time to see the doctor is my top priority at the moment.
