"How is he doing?" Johan looked at his wife's flat stomach. His hand also stroked his prospective child gently.
"What do you mean, mas?" Karina asked back and looked at her husband's hand which gently stroked her queen's stomach.
"Of course our son. Our son-in-law." Said Johan confidently smiling sumringah while still stroking his wife's flat stomach also looking at him with full of desire.
Karina was silent digesting her husband's words that were so sure that she was really pregnant. No one told her about the pregnancy. Karina herself is not sure because she had heard the doctor's verdict when examining the cure of her illness some time ago.
"Why do I feel so hungry when I just had breakfast?" Aunty maid's voice a few days ago rang again in her ear.
Lately, Karina's appetite has been huge. There was not even two hours of breakfast yet, Karina was already hungry again. And his body felt a little more contained than before. She was still very depressed because she was separated from her husband. Karina stood in front of the mirror all over her body in her room. Johan frowned confused to see the behavior of his wife who did not answer his question.
"Why?" Johan clutched his wife's body from behind as she stared at him in the mirror. Not to forget Johan also kissed his wife's shoulder, inhaling the aroma that he missed so much.
"So.. am I pregnant?" Karina said still with her incredulous shock. Karina looked at her husband's face looking up at the mirror as well. They stared at each other in the mirror image.
"Didn't you know? Or..." Not yet finished Johan continued his sentence, Johan turned his wife's body facing him gently although the shock was still there.
Was Ryan's estimate wrong? Or am I just catching a cold? What's the matter, actually? Johan's mind stared in his wife's eyes softly though the look of a sad face was also visible but immediately neutralized itself.
"We check! Okay?" Johan said gently lovingly while stroking his wife's cheeks that were slightly filled than the last time she saw him. Karina's face implied disappointment as well as doubt with her husband's statement.
"I'm hungry." Karina's voice diverted the conversation. Johan is silent, for some reason he feels his wife is hiding something but Johan does not want to press him. Maybe his wife needs time to tell him.
"me too. Come on!" Johan grabbed his wife's hand and linked with her fingers to the dinner table.
Karina was still a thousand languages silent when Johan sat her in the dining chair and asked the maid's aunt to prepare food for them even though the meal hour had not yet arrived. But suddenly Johan's appetite comes again after a long period of nausea and vomiting due to the hormonal effects of his wife's pregnancy.
The doctor once said that she had a hard time getting pregnant so it affected Karina's mind. She certainly expected that pregnancy because her nature as a woman was to become a mother after becoming a wife. It was certainly something Karina wanted.
After a while ago had a miscarriage and again the disease he had suffered even though now his doctor declared his recovery. But the doctor said that she would be difficult to get pregnant even though the possibility is only twenty-five percent. Karina does not believe in doctors right away but her belief as a being of God she believes that miracles must exist even though she is not very hopeful but she still tries to be sure that she is capable.
The gentle touch on her fingers made Karina flinch and stare at her husband still with her daydream.
"Eat baby!" Johan said softly with his sweet smile looking at his loving wife.
"Mass?" Call Karina in doubt.
"Yes?" Johan looked at his wife's face.
"Ehm.that's. a-what... I mean.. would you be disappointed if I wasn't pregnant?" Karina asked stared at Johan intensely with a sad look on her face but she wrapped up with her smile.
So this is what you've been thinking about so much that you've been quiet with blank eyes? Johan's inner still with a smile etched on his lips.
"of course. And that means we have to try harder." Tempta Johan looked at his perverted wife.
"Bag.." Karina's face flushed which even seduced her husband. The atmosphere was so tense. Her husband's answer was able to make Karina come back a little relaxed.
"There are still many opportunities for us to strive to have children. No matter what happens, I will always be faithful to you. So, don't worry about anything!" Johan softly comforted his wife while tightly grasping her hand.
Karina was silent, her heart warmed happily but again she had to be broken about her papa's speech at the time.
"Are you sure you'll survive your household when there are no children among you? Your husband, of course, will want a child. Meat blood. You're sure your household will survive without children. Don't you forget what the doctor said?" Karina's face was slipping. Although now she believes her husband will always be faithful with her until death separates.
But the matter of children or offspring of course it is the main thing for a man. And she could not give offspring to her husband. It does not rule out the possibility that one day her husband must miss the moments when there are children among them.
"Huff." The sound of a long breath could be heard in Karina's troubled ears staring at her husband's face staring at her question mark hoping she knew what his wife was thinking now because again she was daydreaming and looking ahead with empty eyes.
"Ah, sorry mas. I-I'll eat." Said Karina feeling guilty and immediately ate even though she did not enjoy too much. Johan was just speechless staring at the behavior of his wife who was hiding something again.
Helaan breath is still done Johan in order to reduce curiosity and also control his feelings not to be emotional because he wants to know the contents of his wife's mind.
The two continued eating in silence without any conversation. Both Johan and Karina chose to be quiet as if enjoying their food even though in fact in the minds of both of them raging to think of nothing.
