One week Maura couldn't get out of the room. All he does is sleep, eat and have to vomit which sometimes makes him weak.
"Doctors say pregnant women usually experience morning sickness in the morning. But you vomit morning, night. I'm so sad to see you!" Ben said while sitting on the edge of the bed and holding Maura's right hand.
"A pregnant woman like this. I accept and live it with pleasure. We waited almost 2 years. We also passed the tough test of life. The presence of the child is a gift in our lives" said Maura though weak but on the back of a sweet smile on her lips that slightly pale.
Ben's one hand still holds Maura's hand while his other hand caresses his wife's face "I love you very much dear. Really...love you so much"
Maura held Ben's hand that was still on her cheek. "I love you too, dear.."
Ben lowered his head and kissed Maura's pale lips very carefully. Then he took it off quickly with a slightly wheezing breath.
"What's wrong?" maura asked disappointed that she still wanted to enjoy her husband's kiss.
"Darling, we'd better have a quick kiss. I'm afraid I can't help but touch you deeper. You are still weak and pregnant. I don't want to hurt you"
Maura laughed at Ben's words. "Said Mira, nausea and vomiting that will usually stop when the womb is 3 or 4 months old. So you have to hold yourself back for that long"
"What's? 3 To 4 months?" Ben's surprised. He scratched his head which suddenly felt dizzy and itchy.
"However, I can satisfy you in other ways" Maura said with a teasing smile.
"What kind of way?"ask Ben curiously.
"Just like you did when you helped me when I was given stimulant medication"
Ben's eyeballs grew up "Then, is it okay to practice tonight?"
Maura's pale face suddenly became blushing. She pulled her husband's nose in a fit of rage.
"Later Ben.if I'm not dizzy and nauseous anymore"
"That means 3 months? Same with lying..!"
Maura smiled looking at Ben's pouting face.
"alright. Tonight" he said softly barely heard.
"What did you say?" ask Ben girang.
"I won't repeat it again"
"Darling...I think I heard you say tonight?" Ben held his wife's chin to look at him.
"alright. Tonight I will satisfy you in other ways. As long as you make me happy"
Ben's forehead wrinkled "Dear.that's what kind of food?"
"Find out for yourself. There's no rujak, there's no minute of the night." Maura said a little threateningly then turned her back to Ben and closed her eyes.
Ben's out of the room. He called Faith.
"Hallo Faith, can you help me?"
"Whatever it is as long as I can do it"
"Maura asked for rujak. What kind of food is that?"
"Is Maura pregnant?"
"Yes"
"Oh my goodness, Ben. You're so great, yeah, your memory just came back and Maura was immediately pregnant." Faith laughed.
"Faith, stop joking. I was just dizzy thinking about Maura's request. All Indonesian food. Spicy fried rice, meatballs, hodgepodge, paddock chicken, raw chicken. And now rujak"
"Ben, I'm now in an Asian store, I'll try to find ingredients to make rye. You take it easy."
"Make it..!" Ben put his phone back in his pants pocket.
Alicia arrives with Bryan.
"Mom...dad, where have you been?" ask Ben.
"We just attended the opening of daddy's latest movie and stopped by for a bit at Mira's apartment. Her belongings from America have arrived" Alicia said and sat on the sofa with her husband.
"I can't help" said Ben sadly.
"Mira understands. And you don't have to worry other than there are 2 housekeepers sent mommy there, there is also Ficlen who every day comes to Mira's apartment" Bryan said
"Ficlen? Our lawyer?" ask Ben to believe it was his friend Ficlen.
"Which "Ficlen is it again? According to mommy, she likes Mira." Said Alicia enthusiastically.
"Yes. Daddy also felt from Ficlen's body language he seemed to like Mira"
Ben smiled, "The immortal single seems to have started to open his heart. I'm glad that Ficlen likes Mira, which means he also accepts Mira's past. Hopefully Mira will accept it. Ficlen is a good boy. His career is also steady."
"But would the Fic family accept Mira?" ask Bryan.
"Uncle of good people. I'm sure he'll take it." Ben said with pleasure. He believes that if Mira wants to accept Ficlen, then Mira gets one of the best men from London.
"How's Maura doing?" ask Alicia.
"Still vomiting a lot, mom. Thankfully, he also likes to eat. So not too much of a concern" Ben replied.
"Still asking for Indonesian food?"ask Alicia again.
Bryan stood up and patted his son "Sabar ya. If mommy used to ask to see the Queen, ask to see the American president"
"Daddy granted it?" asked Ben enthusiastically.
"If daddy doesn't grant it, maybe you don't exist right now, Ben" Bryan said, laughing and leaving the living room.
"really?" Ben looked at his mommy.
"Yes darling. So if Maura asks for anything weird, you have to be patient, right?" alicia said and followed her husband.
Ben only chuckled while scratching his head back which did not itch.
*******
A sweet smile on Mira's lips while staring at her coffee shop is now ready to open.
Alicia who was originally about to build a building near her boutique, suddenly got the idea to rent a shophouse located right in front of her boutique. Because according to Alicia if the building is completed, the process is quite long.
He went inside and saw that everything was in order. In just a 4-day period, Alicia and all her assistants helped Mira to set things up.
"Can I come in?"
Mira turned her head towards the entrance of "Hi master lawyer. Comein...!" take Mira with a sweet smile.
Ficlen entered while staring at the entire room "Wah.wah. Can I be your first customer?"
"Of course I can.Official opening later tomorrow. But today I prepared some coffee and cake to host mommy Alicia and all her assistants who have helped me" said Mira then her hand began to blame some tools on the pantry table.
"What kind of a lawyer wants coffee?"
"Black coffee."
Mira deftly prepares coffee for Ficlen. He also prepared some cakes.
"Well.had to!" guman Ficlen smelled the aroma of coffee and cake that had been placed in front of him.
"Good fun"
"Will you sit with me here?"
"Can!" Mira pulls up a chair and sits in front of Ficlen.
"The sound is delicious. Did you make it too?"
"Yes. My late mother and father taught him."
Ficlen. A while later she looked at Mira with a slightly nervous face.
"What's the matter, lawyer?" ask Mira
"Eh...Mira, can you not call me master lawyer? I'm Ficlen. It's too bad if you call me that"
"alright. Ficlen" said Mira at last.
"That's so much better to hear" Ficlen sipped his coffee again. Sometimes he looked at Mira with a pounding heart.
"Mira, will you live alone forever?" ask Ficlen.
"Yes. I'm sure I can. Ben's family's been so attentive to me anyway"
Ficlen took a deep breath and said the following sentence very carefully.
"A...did you not try to open ha.ti for others?"
Mira looked at Ficlen "Who would want to be with a pregnant woman like me?"
"I want to."
"What?" Mira looked at Ficlen in disbelief.
"Since the first time I saw you at Aslon's house, I've loved you. I don't know why seeing your face makes my heart flutter. " Ficlen grabs Mira's hand and holds her tightly.
"I know our introduction was only brief. But I am sure of my feelings. In my life, I don't have much experience with women. So sorry if the way I talk sounds kind of romantic"
Mira looked at the man in front of her carefully. Ficlen's handsome face. Although not as handsome as Ben. From the appearance, clothes and watches he wore even the car he was carrying, Mira knew that Ficlen was not an ordinary man. Being able to become a lawyer for the Aslon family, Fic is definitely not an arbitrary person. As for Mira, only the poor girl is lucky to meet Ben. So that now he got a spillover of love from the Aslon family. For Mira, what she received was more than enough.
"Fic, I'm not a woman who deserves you" Mira said, pulling her hand slowly.
"But to me, you're the woman I deserve. I want to take care of you and that kid for the rest of my life. I'll even give him my name. Please don't reject me now. Think again. I'm ready to tell you" Ficlen said with a face full of pleading.
Mira took a deep breath. He looked at Ficlen with tears that could not be held back anymore.
"Fic.thank you for loving me and my son. I promise, I'll think about it. But you also have to rethink your decision. I don't want people insulting you for marrying me"
"I won't change. Because it's just you that I feel so in love."
Mira bowed while caressing her stomach. Is God so good to her? After he got the favor of the Aslon family, now a well-established and handsome man wants to marry her. But Mira did not want to rush to be happy. He really has to think about it.
