PAINFUL MARRIAGE 10

Selena's POV

"I'm sorry, auntie. I-I often cried these past few days," I snorted. Aunt Nila nodded, seeming to understand how I was feeling.

We both turned our gaze to the door when it opened. That made us see my husband, he was followed by the female doctor she had talked to earlier and a nurse. His frowned face brightened when he saw me. He quickly approached and held on me.

"Are you okay?" he asked worriedly. I smiled sparingly and nodded. "Hmm, I'm fine."

"Hello, Mrs. Caro. I'm Doctor Zia Miranda. How are you feeling?" the doctor asked me.

"I'm okay, doc. Aunt Nila said that it was because of stress that I lost consciousness."

The doctor nodded. "Yes, you're stressed and your baby is affected, Mrs. Caro."

I sighed at what I heard from the doctor. "B-baby?" I asked. I turned to Emerson who was staring at me. He carries my face and nodded. The corners of my eyes warmed up.

"You're seven weeks pregnant, Mrs. Caro. The baby was affected because you were stressed. Please don't stress yourself, it affects the child. I already adviced Mr. Caro on what to do. I also gave him some prescriptions for the vitamins you'll take," said the doctor. "I have a patient to attend. Congratulations for the both of you," she smiled before leaving with the nurse.

"B-baby ... I'm pregnant?" I still can't believe as I asked Emerson. Aunt Nila was very happy there on the sofa.

"Yes, we're having a baby," Emerson said and smiled. There was a look of joy on his face, especially in his eyes. I blinked and burst into tears of joy. I sniffed and Emerson chuckled as he hugged me. I sank into his chest and cried there like a child.

"W-we're going to have a baby," I sobbed. I felt him kiss my ear and hugged me tighter. "Yes, baby," he said. "Please stop crying, our baby will be sad."

"I-I'm just happy," I sniffed again. I buried my face on his chest more, feeling his warm embrace around me. "Hmm, I'm happy, too. So much."

My heart is pounding happily. I sniffed on Emerson's chest, his scent is filling my nose and I love it. I blinked a few times and softly placed my hand on my tummy. I heard Emerson chuckled and kissed the top of my hair.
