The Love of the Unknown Man
53 Part 53 FINISHED



Lisa examines Gustav's astonished face and can be sure if her husband has ordered people to do bad things to Martha.


Lisa took a breath. She did not like Martha, but not by violence she retaliated.


"You didn't do anything bad to Martha, did you?" Lisa repeated her question.


"No. How could I have done something bad," replied Gustav lying as he wrapped his arm around Lisa's stomach.


The desire to repeat the hot game again enveloped Gustav's body until it churned in the crown. She clutches Lisa's tiny body but, this time the tiny body rebelled.


Makes Gustav stunned by the response from Lisa. For a moment he stared at the eyes of the two eyeballs of the woman who was now pregnant with her child.


"Dear, why? I want one more time."


Lisa took a long breath.


"Well, but after that you sleep in another room?"


"What?" Gustavo was surprised by the words that came from Lisa's tiny lips.


Moreover, Lisa said it without burden and without sin at all.


"But why, Lisa? Why should I sleep in another room?"


For a moment Lisa thought about what made her dislike being around Gustav. Not finding an answer, Lisa shook her head.


The astonished Gustav, straightened his back to sit on the bed. 


"That's it. Do you want to repeat or not? If not get out of here!" 


"Say! Why are you telling me to sleep in the other room?" gustav insisted.


Lisa clucked and replied, "Because you're ugly.

Brakes.


"Gwen!"


Gustav slammed the library door and shouted to Gwen who jumped in shock until the book in her hand fell to the floor.


Gwen stroked her chest, picked up her book again, and turned to look annoyed at Gustav who was now scrambling her hair in frustration.


"Gus, what's the matter?" Gwen asked Gustav who was now sitting in front of her.


"Lisa's."


"Why Lisa?"


"When she got pregnant why did she always ask me to move rooms after we made love? Even he said I was ugly" said Gustav, expressing all the emotions that were in him.


Hearing Gustav's story, Gwen only sighed and rolled her eyeballs. Then his attention returned again to the book he held.


"Gwen, why are you so quiet? Tell me since when I'm ugly!"


"Gus, you're not ugly" said Gwen.


"Lied."


"Seriously. I'm not lying. Lisa alone is pregnant and at a young gestational age usually the women will be a little unstable. So you understand."


Gustav straightened his back and looked seriously at Gwen.


"Until when do pregnant women experience mood swing changes like Lisa?" Gustav asked enthusiastically waiting for an answer from Gwen.


"Wait three months. Most pregnant women will experience mood changes in the first trimester, after which it is safe, really" explained Gwen relaxed.


Gustav took a deep breath, trying to calm his mind. His hands clenched firmly, as determined as he was to be patient for the next three months.


After being quite confident he could be patient, Gustav nodded his head and muttered, "Alright, only three months."


Five months later.


"No! Argh!"


Gustavo ruffled his hair. He walked back and forth in the study. The place that had been her bed.


Gustav was frustrated because it had been five months but Lisa still asked to separate rooms.


Lisa did not refuse when Gustav asked for rations, but after their heated struggle, Lisa would definitely ask Gustav to leave her room.


And it was much more painful for Gustav. Because he can't sleep by clutching the wife's tiny body.


There are many reasons Lisa gave. From the body that smells, even though Gustav has sprayed a lot of perfume. Until Lisa reasoned if Gustav's face was unsightly.


Even because of that Gustav came to pass the intention for plastic surgery.


"What's this like all Daddy's struggle for?" muttered Gustav who then laid himself on the sofa.


Before long, the door of Gustav's workroom opened featuring a female figure that made Gustav Ketar-ketir so far.


Lisa closed the door without taking a look at her husband who was trying to fall asleep on the long sofa. He walked over and sat down on the sofa.


"Darling, why are you leaving?"


"What's? Didn't you tell me to go?" asked Gustav in an annoyed tone and immediately tilted away from Lisa's gaze.


"I'm sorry. I won't ask you to move rooms again" Lisa said so spoiledly.


Not to forget Lisa dropped her head on Gustav's shoulder to let the man's heart melt.


"I won't ask you to change rooms again. I-i promise. I'll always be by your side wherever you go."


Hearing Lisa's words that seemed very earnest, Gustav tilted his body to the other side in order to see Lisa's face.


Their gazes met and the two of them simultaneously flashed a smile.


And what Lisa said about being next to Gustav wherever she went, turned out to be true.


Lisa followed Gustav every time her husband stepped in. It doesn't matter if Gustav is going to work or worse going to the toilet.


As of now, Gustav let out a frustrated sigh glancing at Lisa who was sitting in the corner of the meeting room. 


Gustav is having a meeting with his colleagues and Lisa insists on coming along. Even though he just sat listening while staring at the face of the man who became husband and soon will be the father of his son.


"Lisa, as good as you go home?" persuade Gustav full of patience.


Lisa shook her head at a sign that she would not obey Gustav's orders.


It's not that Gustav doesn't want Lisa around. But Gustav did not want Lisa tired waiting for him to work.


"You can wait for me at the mansion. Even if you wait in the mansion you can lie down," Gustav continues to persuade to how Lisa wants to go home.


"No. If you want me to go home, you go home too" Lisa said firmly.


"Geez, I really want the child in Lisa's stomach to come out quickly," Gustav muttered as he massaged his head and glanced at Lisa's now enlarged stomach.

Eight months later.


Devan got out of the car and stepped across the park of a spacious mansion. His foot swing stopped when he saw two boys playing with his nanny.


One boy may be about ten or eleven years old trying to bring a baby boy who is only four months old.


Devan's footsteps turned closer and bowed to greet the two boys.


"Uncle Doctor," said Rafael to Devan who replied with a smile.


"He must be Lisa's son, right? Wow you're so funny."


Devan who was about to pinch the cheek of the baby boy did not so after hearing the sound of deheman from behind. He turned around and saw Lisa holding a baby girl.


"Eh, wait! Is this your son or that one?"


Devan pointed to the baby who was in Lisa's arms and who was playing with Rafael.


Lisa smiled and replied, "Both are our children. His name is Gerald and the one I'm carrying, Ginevra."


Devan lowered his gaze to look at Ginevra whose face was very similar to Lisa's.


"Ginevra is as beautiful as you, Lisa," said Devan, who was unaware that Gustav was nearby.


"What did you say?" gustav's jolt flashed a murderous look at Devan who jumped in shock.


"I'm just saying, your children look like their mothers. That's it," said Devan casually.


Devan was lazy to argue with Gustav who now wrapped his hands around Lisa's waist so possessive. As if she was afraid that the woman would be stolen.


"Most importantly, the color of their eyes was the same as mine," Gustav said. 


Since seeing his two children born, Gustav was very disappointed that Gerald and Ginevra did not inherit his face. Except for Lisa's face.


But Gustav remains grateful that his twins were born safe into the world and certainly that makes him a little relieved, at least they inherited the green eye bead from the father.


"Yes, yeah, whatever. Importantly, your infuriating nature doesn't degrade to Gerald and Ginevra," Devan said with a faint grin.


"Hey, repeat once more your words then I will…"


"Gus, Devan, already! Don't fight," cried Lisa who was enough to make Ginevra in the sling surprised.


Gustav took a breath. Still glancing sharply at Devan, he asked, "Would you like to come here?"


Devan offered an invitation card which Gustav received immediately.


"I'm here to give you my wedding invitation to Keysha."


Gustav and Lisa met face to face, then smiled. So did Devan who although often do not get along with Gustav but there is no more competition between them.
