"You better have a good reason to call me to come here so early in the morning."
"But you like my house and Chai isn't here..."
Everyone likes the penthouse. I get sort of lonely when Chai goes on business trips and it's just me here. Being rich is not as fun as everyone thinks it is. Like yeah, you have money to shop your whole PLT wish list but, when you live in a huge house you start hearing ghosts and shit.
Some nights I have to wake Chai up to go to the bathroom with me.
Ghost coming like I just wanna talk to youuu.
At least now I can afford to laze around with my mum and grandma like a bored, rich housewife when I don't want to be home. I literally have to bribe them to shop since I have this much free time.
"Bitch if you called me to hang out, I'm lea-"
"No wait," I shrieked hurriedly stopping her from standing up. "There is a reason, it's gone missing..."
"Nayla, what's gone missing," Samirah asked in an annoyed tone, "if you're talking about your Van Cleef ring again-"
"No and Chai brought me the ring on our first holiday so I have to- no that's not... my period is gone."
"Bitch what? How long has it been gone for?"
A whole month.
Since we got married, I have yet to see a condom. Chai doesn't want to wear them anymore and since we are married, I thought it'd be okay... but now I'm worried.
"Nayla your face," Samirah said squeezing my arm, "why didn't you tell Somchai? He left Friday last week right?"
"Yes but he had a lot going on with the Australia trip and it's been hard and-"
"But what about you? My heart would've sank to my ass if my period was missing for so long that it's a pregnancy scare."
Yeah, it sank right out of my ass.
"Do you think I'm pregnant?"
"... I didn't want to say anything but... you refused bubble tea last time we hung out and that was weird."
" I'm not even throwing up!"
"But you're sleeping all the time and you're nauseous... I think we need a pregnancy test babe."
What do I do? I'm scared. Can I really be a child's mother.
"Should we take one together?"
"Bitch no because I know I ain't squeezing a bastard out of me no time soon. Fetus deletus, me please."
"Hey, children aren't bastards!"
"Look at the motherly instinct swinging already."
...
"Nayla! I'm hereeee," Chai yelled coming through the door with his suitcase and gift bags.
Little does he know, I was waiting on him at the door.
"Baby," he smiled giving me a hug and kiss on the forehead. "I missed you. You smell so good... you smell like you wearing a thong."
Thongs is what got us in this mess.
"I'm not wearing a thong."
"There's still time to put one on," he smiled squeezing my ass. "Or maybe take everything off."
EHHH, wrong answer forehead.
"Chai we have stuff to talk about," I responded crossing my arms, "please tap into your serious side."
"Aigoo my wife is unhappyyy, what do I do," he joked relaxing into the sofa, "should we go on holiday then? the Koh Samui villa or the Seoul home."
"I'm going to Seoul next month already remember? Grandma Kim wants to spend time with me. But... promise you won't be mad..."
"When am I ever mad at you?"
"I-It's been missing... so I-"
"Baby, relax and breathe. Come here."
Somchai gently pulled my hand so I sat facing him on the sofa. I pulled one of my legs over his lap and breathed in his scent.
Maybe I should wear a thong after all... Because either I eat him or he eats me.
Fuck it, I'm crazy.
"You're shaking. I'm your husband aren't I? You can tell me anything. We can work on things together."
He kissed my forehead a few times before he gently pulled me towards him and... I melted. His voice is always so soothing, it's like every time I'm in his arms it feels right.
I wonder if we were a couple in a past life...
"My period hasn't come and... it's been a month."
"Is that normal," he asked giving me a kiss to calm me down more.
"Well I'm always on time so being delayed a month is weird so, I took a test."
Clearblue to be exact. The one that tells you the dates.
While you was running your mouth with him, I was running to the bank sweetie. Depositing checks.
"What did the test say," he asked after a moment of silence slightly looking at my stomach.
"Here." I pulled the test from my bra and giving it too him. The test clearly displayed the 'pregnant 3+' results. "I took a few from different brands and they all said I am pregnant. I booked with the doctors to make sure but, I want us to go together but I thought I'd be better if I told you before the appointment- Please say something Chai, you're just staring at it."
"I'm... going to be a dad?"
"Yes baby," I confirmed softly, moving his face to look at mine, "we're gonna be parents so please say something because I am scared out of my mind... I need you to tell me what you're thinking."
"I am... so happy I don't know how to act," he smiled hugging me tightly. "We're gonna be parents... wow."
