"How's it?" Ask Henry back. He saw the look on his wife's gloomy face after coming out of the bathroom.
"Negative huh? It'sit's okay. Don't you be sad! We can try it again," Henry rubbed Beverly's hair gently.
Beverly slowly looked at her husband, a smile on her face.
"Henry, I'm pregnant!" Beverly screamed and showed me the tespack she was wearing.
"You pregnant?" Henry held Beverly's cheek in disbelief.
"Yes. Look at!" Beverly showed me the new tespack she tried.
Henry immediately hugged Beverly and twisted his wife's body.

"Say what?" Henry pretended not to understand.
"Tell me if you love me!" Beverly slapped Henry's chest softly.
"I love you!" Henry smiled.
"Henry, I love you too!" Beverly kissed Henry's forehead gently.
"Let's see Henry again!" Beverly showed me the two-striped tespack.
"Yes, Bev. Already, the tespack smells pee," Henry kept the tespack on the nightstand.
"Yes, of course, the smell of pee because of the way it is tested in the urine instead of perfume" Beverly grumbled.
"Yes, yeah. I'm sorry!" Henry laughed at the look on his wife's upset face.
"Let's go check your gynecologist, shall we? Let's go to mom and mommy's house! Let's tell them this happy news!" Bring Henry.
"Then come on!" Beverly pulled Henry's hand.

"Yes, what's wrong? You made mommy deg-degan!" Kate touched her chest.
"Emm," Beverly and Henry looked at each other.
"Henry gathered you together because Henry wanted to give you happy tidings. Henry's gonna be a dad soon."
"You mean, Beverly's pregnant?" Alice closed her mouth in surprise.
"Yes, Ma" replied Beverly.
"Darling, this is right?" Kate hugged her daughter.
"Yes, Mom."
"Finally we'll have grandchildren" Ron and Ben embrace each other.
"Sister, congratulations?" Cleon hugged Henry.
"Either. Hope your wedding plans go well, too" Henry patted his sister on the shoulder.

Alula's pregnancy has now reached the age of nine months and is approaching the estimated day of birth (HPL). Kai had told Alula to stay home from a month ago. Kai has a new secretary for her, and she is Rachel, his former personal secretary. Rachel and her husband decided to settle in Birmingham. Rachel reapplied to Kai when she saw a job in print. Kai immediately accepted it again, because as long as Rachel worked with him, he never made any significant mistakes and the performance was quite satisfactory.
Towards the day of birth, Aunt May was apparently pulled into William's house to take care of the needs when Alula gave birth later.

"It's okay, honey. Naturally, you're in a big pregnancy, "Kai calms down.
"You're not gonna look at another woman, are you?" Alula was worried.
"I told you, I've never glanced at another woman. I'm only interested in the mother of my son" Kai sat next to his wife. Alula was calm to hear Kai.
"Kai, look! The baby moved," pointed Alula to her already greatly enlarged stomach.
Kai stuck his ear to Alula's stomach. She could feel her baby's heart beating.
"Darling, be born into this world! Papa and mama can't wait to see you, "Kai gently stroked his wife's stomach.
"Darling, I'm getting ready to go to work!" Kai immediately stood up and prepared to go to his office.
Alula watched her husband, who was now putting a tie around his neck. Alula recalls going back to their early days of marriage, when she first put a tie around her husband's neck.
"Darling?" Kai broke Alula's daydream.
"Yes?"
"I'm leaving first. Today everyone in the house will go to grandfather's grave. Today is the annual anniversary of grandfather's departure, so everyone goes to the tomb today" Kai told Alula.
"You okay at home? Or do I just cancel this meeting and accompany you at home?" Ask Kai worriedly. It would not have been the case if Alula was alone in the house.
"It's okay, honey. Instead I want to apologize for not being able to attend the annual memorial of your grandfather's passing."
"I don't care, Kai. Anyway it's at home not in the Amazon jungle."
"All right, then I'm leaving. Lock all the doors if everyone's gone?" Kai gently rubbed Alula's hair and kissed her cheek gently.
"Papa go to work first, son?" Kai didn't forget to stroke Alula's stomach.
"I'll take you forward!" Alula was about to stand up from her seat.
"Darling, you don't have to drive me!" Kai prevented Alula from standing up.
"It's okay. Let me take you!" Alula stood up with difficulty.
"My back hurts so much !" Alula's complaint in her heart.
"Darling, are you okay?" Kai saw the look on his wife's face grimacing.
"I'm fine," Alula forced her smile.
"Al, Kai? Mama and the others will go to the tomb today. Al, are you okay at home alone?" Sofia asked with a worried face.
"It's okay, mom," replied Alula.
"Really?" Sofia.
"Really, mom. Don't worry! Alula's gonna be fine."
"Al, if there's anything immediately call daddy and mommy huh? Or call your husband!" William seemed worried to see his pregnant daughter-in-law left alone at home.
"Dad, did Aunt May come to the tomb?" Ask Kai to his father.
"No. Aunt May's permission to go home to her son, she said her son was getting married. So, aunt May had to prepare for all the needs of her son who was going to get married" William said. Kai nodded his head.
"Darling, we'll go first!" Sofia hugged Alula. It was hard to leave Alula alone.
"Al, Daddy's leaving! Hearts at home, right?" William is saying goodbye.
They all set foot outside to go to the tomb, including bi Esther.
"Darling, I'm leaving!" Kai looked heavy leaving his wife today
"Yes. Go then! I'm fine!" Alula Strictly. Kai immediately went out of his house.
When everyone was out, Alula locked the door and went back to her room.
During the day, Alula was bored inside the house. Then he decided to call Chelsea.
"Chel, at Daddy's house there's no one. Can you accompany me here?" Pinta Alula to her best friend
"Yes, Al. I'll accompany you. I happen to be lazy to go to the boutique" replied Chelsea.
"Chel, thank you. I wait, okay?"
"Hmm, Al? Can I take Cleon?" Ask Chelsea carefully.
"of course. Take her, huh?" Alula answered enthusiastically.
"alright. I'll call Cleon first. See you there!"
"Yes, Chel. I wait, okay?" Alula immediately closed her phone call.
Alula opened a new novel she bought last week. Alula tried to focus her mind on the novel she was reading. Actually, he had felt cramps in the stomach and also pain in his back that was quite torturous. But Alula did not care about the pain, she thought it was because of the effects of her aging pregnancy.
"Ah, my stomach hurts so much!" Alula's eyes closed while holding her stomach.
"I want to drink" Alula got up from her bed and limped out of her room.
"I'm not strong. It hurts so much!" Alula leaned her body against the wall. Her tears began to drip as she endured the pain that was so tormenting to her.
"I think I'm going to give birth" Alula set her breath. Then he sat on the floor.
Before long, someone seemed to be pressing the bell.
"It must be Chelsea! I have to ask her for help!" Alula slowly stood up and held onto the thing she could reach. Fortunately, the distance of his room with the outside door was not too far away.
"Chel, help me!" Alula shouted for a moment she would reach the door. Alula saw the amniotic fluid go outside and wet her feet.
"Al, what's wrong with you?" Chelsea answered in panic from behind the door.
"Al, open the door!" Cleon banged on the door hard.
"I'm not strong!" Alula closed her eyes. He bent his body while holding onto the small shoe rack in the living room.
"Chel, help!" Jerit Alula is back.
There was a panic outside. It was not long before Alula heard Cleon decide to break down the door. Then, the door opened due to a break from Cleon.
Alula's body staggered. Quickly Chelsea and Cleon ran and caught Alula's body about to fall to the floor. Chelsea held her waist and Cleon held Alula's head.
"Chel, Cleon? It hurts!" Alula grimaced with weight.
"Help me! It really hurts!" Alula cried and closed her eyes.
"Cleon, Alula is about to give birth. Let's get him to the hospital!" Chelsea said in a trembling voice. He was really very panicked because the first time faced with the person who was going to give birth, especially his own best friend.
"Cleon, are you carrying Alula?" Chelsea Pinta.
"Can?" Cleon looked at his lover doubtfully. He really did not want to hurt Chelsea even though it was a trivial thing.
"of course. What are you doing? It's very urgent."
Cleon immediately lifted Alula's body and ran towards her car. He then drove his car at full speed to get to the hospital.
"Chel, sick!" Alula squeezes Chelsea's hand. Alula is now lying in the passenger seat. His head is now lying on Chelsea's lap.
"But, Al. We'll be there soon!" Chelsea wiped away the cold sweat that filled her best friend's forehead.
"I have to call Kai" Chelsea took his cell phone. Then he called Kai immediately.
"Kai, Alula is about to give birth! Cleon and I took him to a hospital in the middle of the city" Chelsea exclaimed as Kai picked up his phone.
