Chapter Seventeen-stupidest surprise

I wake up to Nathi's empty side of the bed and I defeatedly sigh. I'm so damn tired and this man was suppose to cuddle me after making sweet fucking love to me.

Nathi is gonna be the death of me, I swear.
I can't keep up with him, at all.

I finally decide to make my way to the kitchen and I'm gracefully greeted by Nathi in a suit, a smell of eggs and a refreshed lounge and kitchen.

Wow, he woke up early just to clean his mess?
I'm impressed.

But the sudden smell of eggs is unbearable. So I rush back upstairs discreetly making sure he doesn't notice me. He's preoccupied with his breakfast anyway, so I doubt anything might distract him.

I head back to bed after throwing up and I huff annoyingly feeling completely nauseous.

Nathi shouldn't know that I'm pregnant, yet.
He has to figure it out when I present the baby sleepers to him.

Damn, that really slipped my mind.

"Sthadwa sam," he joyfully utters as he comes in with a tray in his hands.

"Surprise! I made you breakfast."

I smile and obnoxiously hold in my breath as he places the tray on my thighs.

The smell of eggs overpowers me, and I need an escape plan. Now.

"Thanks babe," I frown, "You going to work?"

"Yes, I've missed out on a lot," he sighs.

Time to escape the smell before I literally throw up on my sexy man.
I stand up and place the tray on the floor on the far end of the bed.

"You could've just place it right here, you know!" he points the nightstand.

He wouldn't understand and I won't bother elaborating.

I smile and compeletly ignore him. I place myself perfectly on his thighs, legs wide open.

He's about to say something but I smash my lips against his instead, deepening the kiss when I slide my tongue in between his parted lips.

"I'm going to miss you," I breathe.

"I know baby, but I'll come back to check up on you," he pecks my lips.

"You cleaned quite nicely downstairs and you don't look to bad yourself," I grin.

"Oh, so you were checking me out whlist I wasn't aware," he smiles widely.

How naive.

"Don't flatter yourself Mr," he tickles me and I scream out of laughter.

"You were checking me out, admit," he declares.

"Okay, okay. I was checking you out," I yell.

He stops tickling,"Thought as much. You can't get over me," he stands up to fix his tie but I offer to do that instead.

"Hy, I checked the shopping bags since I was curious about what you bought."

I narrow my eyebrows.
Its obvious he saw the sleepers but I wanna act dumb.
"And?" I question.

"And I loved the clothes and underwears you bought," He grins.

This dude is stupid.

"But the baby sleepers? I'm curious," he questionably arches his brows.

"Urgh, I just loved them, so I decided to buy them. For our future baby," I give him a hint.

I know I should've told them but I need him to just predict for crying out loud

"Ooookayyyyyy. Anyway let me bounce, I love you," he kisses my forehead then off he goes.

I sigh. He didn't get the hint, I'll let him suffer just a bit.

I make sure to text Khanyi and inform her not to spill the beans as yet.

This is no life, I've got nothing to do, spending the entire day in the house doing nothing gets boring.

I'll just consider starting on writing my novel, hoping it will keep me company and probably make money once its sales.

I need to learn how to drive as well, but I know the basics. Khanyi has been teachig me.
I literally need a life.

----------------------

"I'll protect you and your mom, I promise baby. I now comprehend why your mom is always grumpy, it's all because of you."

I hear Nathi grumble and I can feel his cold hands on my belly. I want to complain but then listening to him speaking just melts me, so I deliberately continue to pretend as if I'm still fast into my sleep.

"She's even gaining weight, she's going to be fat all because of you. Ohh my poor baby," he chuckles.

Mnx that's not even close to being funny. I'm not going to be fat, I'll make sure of it.

WAIT!!!
How the hell did he figure out about my pregnancy. Last time I checked, he was still clueless about the baby sleepers he found 3 weeks ago.

I think my belly must have sold me out, it's starting to show a little bit. If you're not ignorant, you can specifically figure out that this is no fat bump but a baby bump.

Let me correct myself, when I'm naked or wearing something very tight, you can tell I'm pregnant, since my belly ain't that flat anymore.

So if you know me very well, you'd know I'm expecting.
I hardly even wear those tight clothing these days.

"Could you please remove your freezing hands off of my belly, I'm still enjoying my sleep if you haven't noticed," I hug myself with the blankets agressively and I give Nathi my back.

He said I'm going to be fat. What a dushbag.

"At least I know now, why you basically always wanna murder me," he chuckles.

There is nothing funny at all.

"You said I'm going to be fat Nkosinathi," I mumble.

"It's 6am to be grumpy, sthandwa, that's very early if you ask me," he gets up from the bed. "You didn't even bother to tell me I'm yet again going to be father," he grumpily mutters.

I sit up straight and stare at him, "But I did try to tell you," I defend myself.

Nope, I definitely did not.

"Really?" he narrows his eyebrows upwards

Nope.

"Yeah, with the sleepers you saw three weeks back. You were suppose to get the message from those," I say silently feeling a bit gulity though.

"That's for modern people, Busisiwe. You could have just told me than for me to be surprised by that belly and mood swings," he angrily shouts and I flinch.

"I thought it would have been a nice surprise," I defend myself.

And it could've been if he was smart enough.

"Well it was not. Next time, plan a better surprise because this was one of the stupidest surprise. Mnx," he storms out and leaves me in shock.

Its not my fault anyway, this was Khanyi's idea from the first place. I try to console myself but it really doesn't seem to work.

I'm an emotional wreck and my evening eventually ends with hormonal tears.
