Painful Marriage (A Short Story) [Completed]

My pregnancy is not easy. Though our baby is healthy, my mood is really changing. Mood swings, they say. Sometimes I am tender to my husband, sometimes I fight with him and torture hhim. Good thing, he's so patient that he always do what I say and he never leave my side. Even though I was beating him and making his head hurt because of my silliness. 


Now I am sitting on the sofa in our living room, watching barbie. Even though there is nothing funny about what I watch, I laugh because of the simple things that I believe are funny. I'm eating a champorado that my husband personally cooked for me. He really studied cooking it because I love to eat those. Mangoes are also stocked in our refrigerator because sometimes I taste them. 


"Baby ..." a gentle call made my eyes leave the screen. I smiled when I saw my husband, fresh from the shower. He sat down next to me and frowned when he saw what I was watching.
