Evelyn's Regret
Sixty Seven
"I decided to accept Darrel's proposal" Aira told Eve. After meeting with Darrel Aira visiting his best friend, Noah happens to be having business.
"I'm glad to hear it, Darrel's a good guy. I'm sure he can make you happy." Eve is of course very happy, her best friend pair is getting married. He embraces Aira's body.
"Yes for her sake I forgot my dream" Aira said as she rubbed her stomach. Evelyn's eyes rounded seeing what Aira was doing.
"Aira you?" Eve asked with a questionable look.
"Yes Ve, I'm actually pregnant. This morning I checked it out with a tespack" On the one hand Evelyn was happy, on the other she was sad because the rice was different. He also wanted the presence of a baby.
"Congratulations Ra, I'm so happy. Darrel knows?"
"Yes, he's very happy Ve. I am grateful that even though our marriage will be without love at least Darrel really loves our son" said Aira forced her smile.
"Darrel will definitely love you Ra, believe me" Evelyn rubbed Aira's arm trying to strengthen her best friend.
"Have you been to the doctor?"
"Not yet, Darrel had forced to see a doctor. But I'm still embarrassed considering we're not officially married. The taste is strange to check the content when our status is still like this" Well Evelyn can understand the feelings of her best friend.
"So when are you going to get married?" Evelyn asked enthusiastically.
"Fastly Ve, before our baby gets bigger. She should be given status immediately, just a simple marriage. Probably in a few days. So you don't go home yet?" Eve nodded, she couldn't possibly miss Aira's happy moment. Aira has many members in every condition, because Evelyn wants to do the same.
Their chatter paused as Aira's phone rang.
"Why Rel?"
"You're still at Eve's place? I'll be at the supermarket in a minute" Darrel said
"I told you I'd go home by myself, why bother?" Aira was not feeling well.
"Aira, you're no longer what you were before. There's our baby inside your body, so there's no way I'm letting you go anywhere by yourself" Aira's face blurted at Darrel's words while Evelyn rounded her eyes with a big smile.
"Yes be careful Rel" There's no choice but to obey Darrel. The man was right, he had to think about the comfort of their baby.
"Darrel sweet yes Ra, he's the right man for you" Evelyn said as a call from Darrel was interrupted.
"Yes, I didn't think he could do that." The two chuckled, Darrel's kindness they did not doubt considering they had been friends for quite a while, but only this time did they realize the other side of the man.
20 Minutes later Evelyn's doorbell rang, and she opened the door. Darrel came in after Evelyn let him.
"Ra, are you still nauseous?" Darrel sat down next to Aira.
"No Rail, I'm sick of smelling too strong." Answer Aira.
"How am I? you're nauseous too?" Darrel raised his arm trying to inhale his scent. Fearing Aira was uncomfortable with her body odor.
"No Rail, it looks like our baby likes his papa scent." Said Aira shyly. Because honestly inhaling the scent of Darrel's body made him so calm. Darrel's eyes sparkled to hear him, he rubbed Aira's stomach so fondly.
"Ehemm, don't forget there are other humans here besides the two of you" Evelyn said. Darrel chuckled while Aira smiled shyly.
"Sorry-sorry, understand the prospective new parents. Noah hasn't come home yet?"
"It's on the road he said. Rail so when are you getting married?" Evelyn sat on the single sofa next to Aira.
"Good Rail, it should be"

Darrel dropped off two large bags of groceries in the trunk of his car.
"It's pregnant milk, vitamins and healthy snacks for you Ra."
"This is a lot of Rail?" Aira looked surprised.
"Yes Ra, this is deliberately I buy a lot of flavors so that you can choose which one is suitable and does not make you nauseous" Aira followed Darrel's steps that had gone first to his house, which was not good, they were indeed so familiar that Darrel no longer felt foreign to enter Aira's house.
"Ra, how will your parents know, if I come there or what?" Aira lives alone because her parents live in a different city.
"Later to call Rel, it's too time consuming to go there" Aira sat down beside Darrel.
"But later your parents doubt the seriousness of me Ra"
"You know for yourself my parents are relaxed and not too complicated Rel" Darrel nodded in agreement.

Noah hugged Evelyn's body from behind, the girl was enjoying the view of the night sky.
"Why baby?" Whisper Noah while tightening his embrace.
"Why what?" Evelyn asked still looking at the sky.
"You still seem to be sad, baby. Can you come back as cheerful as usual? I was worried when I saw the cloud in my wife's face" Noah said languidly as he breathed heavily.
Evelyn twisted her body to face her husband, she draped her hands around the man's neck.
"Yes I will try not to be too sad anymore" Evelyn put on her sweet smile, although not as sad as this morning but indeed the sadness in Eve's heart was still seperate. she hopes to get pregnant this month.
Noah looked at his wife, he landed a kiss on Eve's lips, just a brief kiss so as not to blur. The wife was not able to do anything tonight.
"Darling, her home was pushed back, can't she? I want to attend Aira's wedding" Noah's forehead looked wrinkled, he was quite astonished at the sudden information.
"Aira's married? by when? same who?" Evelyn was so anxious to see the expression of her husband, that she landed a kiss on the man's face.
"Sama Darrel, maybe 3 more days" Noah looked increasingly confused.
"Are they dating? have you been planning to get married?"
"If you're a mate even though you're not dating, you're still getting married, Darrel has long proposed to Aira. But it's only accepted now" Evelyn deliberately did not tell about Aira's pregnancy. As much as possible he wants to keep his best friend's pride.
"Well then, I'll call mom.
Come in yuk, I want to collect a promise" whispered Noah suddenly with a meaningful gaze. The man's warm breath hit Eve's ears to make her crumble.
"What promise?" Eve asked confused.
"Didn't my wife learn how to satisfy her husband in an emergency? I want to try it baby, I don't want you to waste your lessons just like that." Eve's face was embarrassed, Noah clutching his wife's body as he buried his lips on Evelyn's lips.
