#Book 2 Chapter 2
I took a deep breath before opening the door to get out of the bathroom.
Seeing Keian staring at nowhere with his eyes not blinking made me even more nervous.
As in, he isn’t blinking at all!!!
It’s just the second time I saw him paced out like this.
The first time was the next day after my return here in the mansion. He was just staring at me when I woke up and reassured his mind that I’m really here. The second is right now.
He might’ve not heard me closing the bathroom door, so I gathered some courage to call him myself.
He looked at me with a still, blank expression, so I wasn’t exactly sure of what he’s feeling at the moment.
He silently stood up and went over to me.
I showed him the results of the five pregnancy tests and lowered my gaze.
I bit my lip.
” T-two lines. That means…” I nodded my head at him, and as his expression darkened, I felt a tear falling down from my eye.
” I-I’m sorry” I’m not sure as to why I’m crying, but my chest just felt heavy with all I’m feeling.
Huhuhu.
Keian’s eyes widened.
” Why are you crying? And why are you apologizing?” His face is filled with worry.
I whimpered.
” For everything… sorry about this. Because you might probably…” I raised the pregnancy tests.
His mouth gaped open, and he confusingly looked at me, then back to the tests.
“I thought you’d be mad with me. I never thought I would—”
” Hmphhf,” I stopped talking as Keian kissed me rapidly.
As we broke away, he pressed our foreheads against each other.
He looked at my eyes.
” You don’t have to worry, baby. I’m just thinking about the night we spend together, that means I… I should be the one apologizing” I shook my head at him.
” No, Keian. I don’t regret what happened. It’s just that…” I lowered my head, and there was a long deafening silence surrounding us.
I don’t ‘don’t want to have a baby. It’s a blessing, and I’m happy that I will have a child of my own.
But I’m afraid that Keian won’t like having a baby. We haven’t made any plans regarding that yet…
I gazed up at Keian to speak, but I was surprised to see a bright grin on his face with tears escaping from his eyes.
” I’m sorry for everything, but I promise, Nass. I am happy. Super f—ing happy!” He lifted me up and spin me around off the ground.
I stared at him.
His face is so happy.
Very happy.
It’s the first time I saw him smile like this…
And it melts my heart.
My legs are on his side, and I put my hands on his neck while his arms are around my waist.
He stopped spinning me around and turned to me with a smile.
” I would like to have a family with you, Nass. Thank you” He kissed me once more and buried his face on my shoulder…
With a wide smile, I also turned to him.
” I love you, Keian” His smile grew wider.
” I love you more, baby.”

Zeke and Katie’s eyes trailed to us as they got out of the elevator.
We’re currently at the headquarters, fourth floor where Keian usually sat. He’s sitting there right now, but I was also sitting on his lap. So he was right behind me.
His hands are protectively around my waist, sometimes rubbing my stomach.
He obviously didn’t want to let me go.
He kissed me on the cheek and buried his face on the crook of my neck.
Zeke overreactingly covered himself when he saw us.
” Woah! PDA!” I rolled my eyes at him.
” We’re not even in public, Nic,” Keian irritatedly pointed out.
Zeke smirked and turned to Katie.
” Don’t worry, I won’t be jealous of you anymore.” He pulled Katie closer and kissed her passionately. In front of us.
Everything ended when Katie pushed Zeke away and sat on her chair, flustered. She silently lowered her head.
Zeke was still smirking as he sat somewhere near Keian and amusingly stared in Katie’s direction.
” Ello!” Steven cheerfully greeted as he entered. He was followed by Maxence, whose full attention was on his cellphone.
Soon they were followed by Devon, Erick, Laiza, and Theo, who greeted Keian and me before sitting down on their designated positions.
” Kuya!” I called, seeing my brother come out of the elevator along with Kuya Kayden. Whereas Diego was right behind them.
” Hello,” He greeted with a smile and messed my hair playfully.
“What’s going on?” Kuya Kayden asked, also messing my hair like what my Kuya did.
I pouted.
” Just sit your ass down,” Keian coldly told his brother, who just smirked in reaction.
Diego grinned at the sight of me and also played along to messing my hair.
Hey!
I shot him a glare until he sat on a chair.
The three siblings get to talk with one another, but their tension is still there, like an invisible wall. But they’re working on it.
So why is everyone in here? Because Keian called everyone up as if it was an urgent meeting.
” So, what exactly are we doing here?” Asked Devon.
I drew myself away from Keian and sat on a nearby chair.
He shot me a glare, but I held his hand reassuringly so he wouldn’t have to feel bad.
He’s acting like a child.
He sighed and squeezed my hand a bit.
” Nassandra is pregnant,” He directly announced.
Deafening silence surrounded the whole room as everyone’s eyes were widened or their mouths were hung open in shock.
” You’re pregnant?!” Diego asked in a slightly raised voice. Keian narrowed his eyes at the man.
” Is there a problem, Gaius?” He pointedly questions.
” I-I mean” Diego lowered his head and thought.
” I’m assuming it’s already 2 months” We all turned to Zeke.
I slowly nodded in agreement.
” I’m not sure since we just knew it a little while ago, and we swear we only did it once…” Zeke nodded at my reply.
” But you were hospitalized,” Diego softly said.
” Hmmm. When did your symptoms start showing up?” Theo asked.
” Just last last week.”
” Gaius is right. You were hospitalized. The doctors should’ve known you’re carrying a baby inside.” I furrowed my eyebrows at the realization that Katie must be right.
I tightened my grip on Keian.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
