Chapter 406 SECOND TRISEMESTER
Hailee was telling Ramon about her childhood and the naughty things she had done as a child, deliberately not talking about Aileen, because she didn't want to spoil her mood by remembering that woman.
They were in the balcony of their room, enjoying the evening sitting close together on the sofa set there, gazing at the Moonlight that beautifully reflected on the dark sea surface. The sound of the waves crashing was the most pleasant and soothing thing for Hailee right now.
But, in the middle of her words, Hailee suddenly stopped talking and this made Ramon stop laughing too. He looked closely at Hailee's facial expression, noticing that there was something odd about his wife.
"What is it?" Ramon asked frantically. He quickly sat up straight and his eyes sharpened when he saw Hailee touching her stomach which had started to look like a baby bump. "Are you sick? Do you feel something?" Ramon rubbed Hailee's stomach. "Say something." He looked frustrated that Hailee was silent.
Since Hailee didn't answer his question, Ramon stood up and tried to carry Hailee, but the woman just moved her body, avoiding him, not wanting to be carried.
"What do you want?" Hailee asked back in confusion.
"We're going to the hospital," Ramon's voice sounded very stiff, enveloped by his fear and all other feelings of uncertainty seeing Hailee's condition. ????????????????????????????. com
But then, he saw the wide smile that tugged at the corners of his wife's lips. "You're too tense, I'm fine."
However, Hailee's words couldn't diffuse his worries, because Ramon didn't change his facial expression at all when he heard Hailee say that.
"Really, I'm fine." Hailee laughed this time, and then pulled Ramon's hand so that the man could sit beside her, but Ramon refused and still tried to carry Hailee, wanting to take her to be examined. He seemed a little paranoid about Hailee's pregnancy and didn't want anything to go wrong. "No, sit down first, I was just joking earlier."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRamon was still staring at Hailee, his gaze so wary, as if he couldn't believe it when Hailee said she was fine.
Well, Ramon was often not easy to believe when it came to the health of his wife and child.
But, after some persuasion, Ramon finally sat down and looked at his wife's face questioningly.
"What is it? Why are you in pain?" Ramon asked, his brows furrowed in stress.
"I'm not in pain," Hailee reconfirmed. She then took Ramon's hand and placed it on her stomach. "Try to feel this..."
It was not the first time Hailee had experienced it, but that didn't mean she would get used to it. Of course not, she didn't think that she would get used to her pregnancy at all.
Every change in her felt like it was a miracle, especially a moment like this.
After a while of waiting, Ramon felt movement under the palm he placed against Hailee's stomach.
He then looked at his wife. "The baby's starting to move," he said in a low voice. He then moved his hand again and found the part where their baby was kicking again.
"Yeah, I think he likes your voice," Hailee said softly, kissing Ramon's cheek, to which she got a hug in return.
"I love you Hailee," Ramon whispered softly into her ear. "I love you and our child."
===================
Hailee pursed her lips trying to look at her feet, standing up, but then she walked over to the single sofa and sat there, trying to bend over.
It was just that, her stomach started to grow, blocking her movement and making it difficult for her.
It was then that Ramon walked into the room bringing Hailee an afternoon snack. He found his wife with a scowling face.
"What is it?" Ramon asked, and then put down the tray he had brought with him, which contained fruit, cake and milk.
Ramon walked over to Hailee and kissed the top of her head gently and sat down at the table in front of her.
"I can't cut my own toenails," Hailee complained. She couldn't do that because her stomach was giving her a little trouble.
Ramon laughed when he heard that and took the nail clipper from Hailee's hand and lifted her leg into his lap.
"What are you doing?" Hailee asked, looking at Ramon wide-eyed.
"Cutting your toenails, what else?" Ramon asked in a tone as if to say; was that even a question? Wasn't it obvious what he was going to do?
"Don't..." Hailee refused, trying to pull her legs back from Ramon's lap, but Ramon just pulled her legs back into his lap.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHailee was already six months pregnant and the two of them were still keeping this a secret from Lis and Lexus, because both of them wanted to return home next month and surprise them both.
And that was not the only reason, but also because the two of them would definitely cause unnecessary fuss if they found out earlier.
"Why not?" Ramon asked in bewilderment, as he got down to work.
"I feel bad when you touch my feet," Hailee said softly, but Ramon ignored her words and continued to trim his wife's toenails.
And from that day on, it was Ramon who would help Hailee to do everything. That being said, in her current pregnancy, Ramon would be prepared for twenty-four hours for his wife.
On one night, Hailee woke up experiencing cramps in her legs. She tried not to make any sound, not to disturb Ramon who was sleeping.
This was not the first time she had experienced this, because in her previous pregnancy, Hailee often experienced cramps like this when she was sleeping.
But, no matter how quietly Hailee hissed and how slowly she moved her body uncomfortably, as soon as Ramon sensed something was wrong with his wife, he immediately opened his eyes and checked on Hailee's condition.
"Cramp…"
The one word that escaped Hailee's lips was enough for Ramon to know what he should do next.
Without saying much, Ramon then immediately grabbed Hailee's leg and massaged it. He did this until Hailee really felt comfortable and went back to sleep. After that, he lay down and hugged his wife tightly.
Oh, Ramon would try to fulfill all of Hailee's strange requests.
There was even one time, Ramon ordered David to buy something outside this island because Hailee wanted it and David had to take a helicopter to buy it that very night.
Hailee just needed to say something and in the next moment, regardless of what she asked for, Ramon would grant without much questioning.
