EPISODE 58
There are people who would sacrifice themselves just to protect the baby.
“Love, have you taken the tonic from the second one?” Louis worriedly asked. Though it has slow effort it would still affect the baby.
“I almost did. But, nope I didn’t. Thank God” Brina said, sighing in relief.
“Thanks to you, love. Thanks to your overthinking” Louis chuckled as he sighed in relief too.
“But.. But…. who would have added that herbs in Brina’s tonic? I would never do that! I never even thought of hurting Brina. She is like a child to me” Elora said, as she sobbed.
“Mom, I never suspected you. Not even in my dreams” Brina immediately said. She wanted to hug Elora and comfort her but she is in bed rest now.
Moreover her legs felt like jelly, no strength to even move.
“Mom, you have been tricked. No one would even dare to suspect you. We all know how much you love your daughter in law and support them” Louis said.
“He is right, love. No one would even dare. I would never believe that you would do something like it. So, please don’t overthink” King Edgar said, taking his wife into his embrace.
“Mom, that old geese did this to create misun-derstandings between you, dad and all of us” Eliina said, hugging her mother.
“Elle-” Elora was about to chide her daughter for being so open about calling Greta the old geese but Ethan stopped her.
“Elle is the right mom. Isn’t this so obvious? She wants Brina out of this family but Louis loves her. So, she employed her old trick and got caught” Ethan said.
“She doesn’t know who Brina is, so she un-derestimated her,” Katherine said.
“Dad, I am sorry but, I can’t let this go anymore. Greta tried to harm my wife and crossed my bott-om line. She has to be punished for her crime” Louis said, gritting his teeth.
He gently caressed his wife’s back who was surprisingly sleeping. She seemed exhausted and sleepy, so when she at last got back into her husband’s warm embrace, all her tension vanished and she dozed off again.
Louis panicked when he saw her sleeping but Rihanna a-ssured him that she is just sleeping because she is tired and her medicines are a little sleepy. It is only when Louis cooled down.
“I am on the same page, son. Brina is not only your wife. Before she became your wife, she was my goddaughter and my best friend’s only living child. I would never let anyone hurt her. I promised” King Edgar said. “Even if it is my own mother”
[Author : Not the right time to get jealous Louis. You have your vinegar eating scenes around the corner.]
“It’s settled then! Brina is already asleep so let her take some rest. We will take care of Greta tomorrow” Louis said.
Everyone nodded their heads in approval. After this mess with Greta is finished, they decide to welcome the little life with small celebrations.
Meanwhile, not knowing that her end is so soon, Greta is peacefully sleeping.
She is over the moon already and she is busy in planning her next schemes not knowing that her end is so soon and this would be her last, luxurious day.
Meanwhile, after Louis put his wife to sleep he looked at her for a few minutes, his thoughts complex and uncertain. kis-sing her forehead he walked out of the room to plan Greta’s end.
….
Next morning…
“Good morning,” Louis said, when Brina woke up. He couldn’t sleep much and all night, he was looking at his wife, de-eper in thought.
So, when she woke up, he was sitting beside her, shirtless, he was intensely looking at her.
Meanwhile, Brina felt her mouth drool. Such a handsome and s-exy visual… Might be her pregnancy hormones, her hunger for s-ex increa-sed drastically.
“Good morning,” Brina said, her mouth dry and her voice meek. She gulped down when her eyes fell on his apple Adam. So ravishing!!
Louis chuckled. “Like what you see?” he asked as he gave her warm water to drink.
Brina averted her eyes and she took a sip from the bottle, trying to cool down.
She is in no mood to play right now. If it was a normal day, she would have removed her top and questioned him back, ‘Want what you see?’ However, this isn’t the right time for it.
She just can’t pretend as if nothing happened unlike her husband.
They need to talk…
They had to sort out things…
But all again, what is there to sort out?
She is pregnant and there would be a baby coming in eight months.
All they can do is prepare for it and embrace it….
“How are you feeling now?” Louis asked, caressing her cheeks as he leaned very close to her, making it ha-rd for her to think.
His impact on her started strengthening and she failed to notice this till now because they used to engage in bed activities too much till a couple of days back.
“I am fine. But, I am worried about the little guy inside” Brina said, trying not to distract herself because of her hot, handsome husband.
She has to talk this out with him.
Brina deliberately pulled her shirt up and ru-bbed her tummy, while she said those words.
Louis felt his eyes darkened. He hasn’t had her taste since two days. He is nothing much but a hungry beast who is not yet satiated. Seeing her do this almost made him pounce on her and ravish her thorou-ghly.
Louis coughed and he averted her eyes. “I.. I am gonna bring your medicines” he said as he stood up to escape from his wife.
He is not yet ready to talk. For now he simply wants to predict everything is normal, at least until they handle Greta. However he was stopped when Brina held his hand.
She simply could see throu-ghhim. But his silence is the biggest nightmare to her!!
“Uhmm?” Louis turned around and raised his eyebrows.
“Why are you running away?” Brina asked, hurt by his dodging antics.
“Running away? I am going to bring your fasting medicines. Bed rest and un-der medications forgot?” Louis asked, acting smart.
Brina bitterly chuckled. “I am not talking about that. I am asking why you don’t want to talk to me” she said.
“Darling, I am talking to you now, aren’t I?” he asked, trying to dodge again.
“What I mean is after you found out about my pregnancy you didn’t even bring up that topic. It is as if you don’t know at all” Brina said.
“Are you not happy? I know this is sudden but at the end of the day, you have to accept it. At least, try to accept that fact like what I am doing now. Eventually we will” Brina said looking at him.
Louis stood there, looking at her, more like scrutinizing her face.
He knew that she was hurt because of his attitude. However, he still needs time.
This is very, very sudden and everything is a mess right now. Unlike his wife, he has no affinity towards kids.
He is not finding excuses because he knows very well that Brina is facing everything he is un-dergoing as well.
In fact, more than that.
She is fighting her trauma of losing someone she loves. Especially kids, that too her own kid.
He has to accept that she is a strong woman…
She sorts out the things fas-ter than him and comes to a decision before sticking to it. All she needs is time..
However, he is different.
He is more afraid that this would hurt Brina.
If something bad happens now, she would fall into an never ending de-eper abyss of guilt and pain. He is more worried about her.
After all, they are in a waging war now.
And for him nothing is more important than his wife. Not even the baby….
“Talk something Louis. At least, let me know if you want to talk about this or not” Brina said, her voice cracked.
“If you want to talk, stay here or walk out of our bedroom door. I will un-derstand that you still need time and I will not bring this topic until you talk about this yourself” Brins said, averting her eyes to look out throu-ghthe window.
Tears could be seen brimming in her eyes.
Meanwhile, Louis didn’t walk out of their bedroom door nor he stayed back. He opened the balcony door and went out.
Technically, he is in their bedroom itself but at the same time he didn’t stay to talk with her. He found himself a third option.
Like always!!
“This man!!” Brina sighed in frustration and huffed.
‘Don’t worry baby. Daddy just needs time and when he comes back to us let us give him a cold shoulder’ Brina thought as she ru-bbed her stomach and lied down.
….
Meanwhile…
Louis wiped away his sweat.
“God!! It’s so close. Thank God this idea blinked in my messed up mind” Louis said to himself as he heavily slumped on the couch with his fingers pinching his nose bridge in helplessness.
‘Why should she be so angry and persistent? Are these her pregnancy mood swings?!’ he thought, terrified already.
He has to be the scapegoat to her unstable emotions and overwhelming mood swings.
It is not that he felt it was a problem, but he is afraid that he would be able to take good care of her and admit all these chaos.
Should I ask her sometime to get accustomed to this?
More than anyone, he would be the one to suffer more.
He should be extremely gentle to her, control himself every time. He is sure he cannot do that. As he got addicted to this, he could never control itself like before. Even a slightest seduction will be enough to shred all his control..
With this, he should also be extra careful because they are in the most fragile situation now.
Most delicate and sen-sitive situation which could impact his wife very badly in something terrible happen.
He couldn’t stop thinking pessimistic. He knows, his thoughts would change nothing and no matter how much time he takes to answer her and get accustomed to this, the result will be the same.
He has to accept everything and protect both his wife and their baby. He is just scared that he couldn’t bring himself to do so.
“I badly need someone to talk to” Louis sighed and after thinking for some time, he made a call to Harry, his savior when it comes to Brina and her moods.
“Dude, congrats. I got the news. I will be the godfather, okay? I am even getting a cradle ready and also buying some super cool dresses for my Godbaby” Harry’s cheerful voice sounded from the other side.
When Rhianna told him about Brina’s pregnancy he was totally elated. Yes, he is worried too but that is overshadowed by the little bundle of joy that would brighten all their lives even more.
‘He is fas-ter than my own wife’ Louis thought when he listened to Harry’s cheerful voice.
‘If nothing would have happened now, I would be on the bed playing around with my wife. Life has been so good and thrilling this month’ Louis thought and sighed when he felt his little brother getting excited just from the thought.
“Louis, why aren’t you talking anything?” Harry asked.
“Brina is angry at me,” Louis said.
“For knocking her out?” Harry laughed.
“No, for not talking about this” Louis answered.
“Aren’t you happy?” Harry questioned.
“Honestly, I don’t know, man. I mean, there are many dangers surrounding her now! I am worried about her and my mind is in a whole mess” Louis sighed as he pinched her space between his eyebrows.
“You are thinking about the future and hurting her foolishly right now. If you are with her, showing your support and giving your warmth, she will be ready to face anything, literally anything Louis. If you evade the topic and play around the bushes, ultimately you will be the one hurting her”
“You will be the one that hurt her most!!” he deadpanned.
Harry couldn’t help but get angry. He un-derstood Louis’s condition but he was selfish. For him, his sister is the main priority.
“Just remember that she would be able to face anything but not the pain that is afflicted by her lover ones, especially you my friend, the only person she loves more than herself” Harry tried to explain.
“You are dwelling on the ‘what if’ scenarios and ruining the most valuable memories. Tell me what will you gain by pushing the reality away? At the end you have to accept it no matter what. By that time you would have hurt her”
