The Curse of the Ex-Lover
Good News
Julian who had just returned home and parked his car had been greeted with two women who filled his life perfectly. Dara and Alea smiled at Julian's arrival. Dara kisses Julian's hand and then picks up the briefcase Julian had in hand. Julian kissed Dara's cheek at a glance then turned to her little daughter.
"Father, you're home." Alea extended her hand towards Julian, swiftly Julian greeted Alea and held his daughter.
"Hi, your princess has been playing all day with Mama?" julian's question was answered with Alea's funny babble. Alea is now 4.5 years old. He can speak fluently, but there are still typical children in his tone.
"Mama said she had a surprise for Papa." Dara initially glared at her son but laughed at Alea's expression hiding in Julian's arms. Actually, Dara wanted to give a surprise later when they had dinner but her little princess had already leaked a surprise that would be given to her.
"So we agreed we'd give it to him at dinner, right, pretty." Dara admonished her daughter gently. Julian only laughed looking at Alea who was lowered and hid her head behind the shoulder of her Papa field.
"What a surprise, baby? I'm curious about the surprise you want to tell." Dara put Julian's briefcase down first, then gave him a small box that had been given a pretty ribbon.
Dara gave the little red box to Julian. Alea who was still carried whined to get down from her Papa sling. She wanted to see the expression of her Papa as she opened the small box that Dara had prepared. Julian opened the box and looked at the flat object that was inside. It turns out that in it is a test pack result that shows two red lines. Julian's expression was predictable, he smiled happily grasping the test pack.
"Darling, are you pregnant?" Julian still does not believe in the results of the test pack that is in his grasp.
"Yes, Mum." Dara nodded her head and smiled. Julian lifted his wife's body and twisted it. He was very happy with Dara's life, it was a long wait from both of them.
For 4 years they married, Julian was very much looking forward to the presence of children. Of course, he was also very grateful for the presence of Alea even though it was not his flesh and blood he never once brought up about it even with Dara. He loved Alea as much as he loved Dara.
At first, Julian thought he was troubled so that Dara had not been pregnant even once he thought that Dara only married him because he wanted to avenge his cultivation to Julian. So, he thinks that Dara is still thinking about her ex-lover. However, Dara manages to convince Julian that she also loves Julian deeply not only for his kindness and Julian's help. The love of Julian has filled her so that there is no other place for anyone else. Dara believes they must be patient waiting for the baby. He knew Alea's presence wasn't a mistake, but God might want to rebuke her by giving her a small life that was proof of her mistakes and her past. Another case, with Julian who has officially become her husband and halal for her. They must be patient waiting for the baby who is a sign of love both.
"Papa, Lea will be carried." The little girl reached for his father's hand. Julian with a smile greeted Alea's hand and then twirled her little princess' body.
"Sorry baby, I was so happy and so forgot about your situation. We're going to the hospital now, right? You still dizzy?" Frantically Julian asked and checked on Dara. He led Dara to sit down on the sofa.
"No, baby, I'm okay. Just a little dizzy because you just turned me around," said Dara calmly. He did not want Julian to panic over such a trivial matter.
Julian stroked Dara's stomach, she was very temperate and craved the presence of her son. With a smile constantly visible on his face, the man hugged Dara who had filled his days.
"Papa, I also want dong hugged." Julian held Alea in his arms and hugged his wife and child at the same time.
"Alea, you're going to be a big brother. You're happy, aren't you?" Julian asked Alea, she will always love children. Julian did not want his affection to diminish, he promised himself to always love Alea like his own son.
"Sister? So, I'm gonna have a sister? Baby sister? Where's the Baby's Sister?" Alea looked to the left right looking for her baby sister.
"His sister was not born. We'll have to wait about 8 months." Dara explained to Alea slowly for her son to understand.
"Well, it's been a long time, Ma," Alea said with a funny mimic that made Julian and Dara laugh.
"I also have news for all of you, may this be good news for our little family" Julian said, watching Dara intensely. There was a palpitating feeling saying this news to Dara, she was afraid that Dara was not happy with the news she brought.
"How are you saying?" Dara was curious by Julian's words, she felt Julian wanted to tell the news that was not so happy because the look on her husband's face was not so exciting.
