I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
144. Happy news

Cafe with warm shades with floral and candle decorations on each table gives a romantic impression for the place.

At one table, Bram was sitting alone, agitated. Sometimes he saw a clock curled up on his wrist, and then set his eyes on the door.

A few minutes passed, Bram got up from his seat when he saw someone he was waiting for was seen at the entrance.

"I'm sorry, I'm late" she said.

"It's okay, let's sit down first" Bram asked.

The woman smiled sweetly, following Bram towards the table he had ordered for them. With Bram pulling out a chair for the woman to sit on, he pulled out a chair for himself and sat down opposite the woman.

"Why, it looks like I would be willing to be here until morning as long as I can see your face, Jes," Bram said sincerely.

"Your sweetness is increasing, Bram," Jesica said softly.

"Oh come on, don't ruin it, I'm telling you the truth. Isn't saying sweet things to my own beloved a natural thing?" greet Bram.

"Come on," said Jesica to raise her shoulder.

"Only, it's like it's not you" Jesica said as she propped up her chin.

"Haiss,," Bram ruffled his hair. "I can't be as romantic as Joel in this" Bram said.

"And I can't be as sweet as Ariel" Jesica replied.

They looked at each other for a while before finally breaking up together. Laughing at their own words.

"By the way, I miss them. The last time we met was Mr. Adonis' show at the time" Jesica said.

Before Bram could answer, a servant interrupted them to ask for their order.

"So, what do you want to eat?" ask Bram.

"Hemm, I'll follow you for now. I think we have the same taste in this," replied Jesica with her casual attitude.

"All right," welcome Bram.

Bram started mentioning the menu for them to enjoy to the waiter who immediately took note of it.

The waiter left them after Bram finished taking notes, and returned after a few minutes with their order. Carefully put all their orders on the table and leave them to enjoy dinner.

"What if we pay a visit to their apartment tomorrow night?" tawp Bram's.

"Hey, that's a great idea. Didn't we not gather together for long? We can also take Charlie and his sister with us" Jesica said.

"I'm not sure about them, which I heard, Charlie gets busier at night, and he has his personal life, too" Bram replied.

"I know, but we can try. And if they can't, yes they can. Enough of the four of us" said Jesica.

"All right, I agree" replied Bram.

They enjoy their dinner with occasional small talk. Suddenly, Bram leaned toward Jesica with his arms outstretched.

Jesica was glued for a moment when she realized Bram was tapping his thumb at the corner of his lips. They looked at each other for a while without saying anything.

Their sudden closeness made their hearts beat faster, until Bram broke the silence by saying.

"Sorry, there's a cream stain there, so I_,, uhm," Bram turned nervous when Jesica was very close to his face.

"It's okay. Thank you," welcome Jesica with a blushing face.

The atmosphere turned awkward until they finished their dinner. It made Bram as much as possible to reopen his voice.

"If I take you somewhere, can you take it?" ask Bram.

"Where exactly?" ask Jesica.

"It's not a fancy place, it's just that I feel like you're going to love it" Bram replied.

"All right, I'm coming, '" replied Jesica.

Bram smiled, then extended his hand. Holding Jesica out of the cafe to where she parked her car.

Bram drives until he reaches the city. Where it is one side of the beach that is very rarely visited.

"What do you think of bringing me here?" asked Jesica confused.

"I was expecting that you didn't know this" Bram replied.

Bram asked Jesica to walk further to the beach by stepping on the bebetuan that was there. Then asked him to turn around, until what he saw made both his eyes wide open.

The entire city was clearly visible before his eyes like a sea of diamonds with the glitter of lights illuminating the night.

"Wwoow,, this is amazing. I never thought the city I'd been living in had looked like this" Jesica said.

Bram stood beside Jesica, joining in to enjoy the scenery they saw with their fingers interlocked.

#The next day.

Ariel squirmed slowly and did not feel the hand that was usually on her waist. With his eyes still closed, he turned his body with his hands outstretched. But his forehead creased as he did not feel anyone beside him.

His eyes were open, again making sure the place next to him that turned out to be empty. Make him immediately wake up and sit while looking at the empty place there.

"Didn't he say he didn't work today?" muttered Ariel slowly.

Without tidying herself up, Ariel stepped out of the room and heard a voice in the kitchen.

"Bunny,,,?" call Ariel in a loud voice.

"Eii, why wake up? Get more sleep, I'm still preparing breakfast" Joel suggested.

Ariel approached her husband who was stir-frying something. I don't know what he did he didn't think much of it. Ariel stood behind Joel, then wrapped her arms, hugging her husband from behind.

"What's wrong? Hmm,,? Did you have a bad dream?" joel tapped Ariel's hand with a soft clap.

His one hand was still busy with his cooking, and he felt from his back Ariel shake his head.

"No" answered Ariel. "Just, it feels weird when you wake up and you're not there as usual" Ariel replied.

"I also make your favorite food" said Joel.

"Is that why you woke up earlier than usual?" ask Ariel.

"Of course, when else can I make it?" greet Joel.

The sound of BEEPs in the oven instantly made Joel turn his head and turn off the grill.

"It's over?" welcome Ariel with a happy smile.

"A moment, I took it out of the oven first" said Joel, causing Ariel to release her hand.

Joel opened the oven to smell the delicious aroma of beans and chocolate. A cake that his wife loved very much, Peanut pie.

Joel wakes up early to make a cake that he has never made since their wedding. But the good news he received made him want to please his wife, and remembered his wife was very fond of peanut pie he made.

"Here it is," said Joel, pointing out a cake that had just come out of the oven, and putting it on the table.

However, Ariel frowned while covering her nose. She gave a protest look at her husband.

"Are you sure you made this?" ask Ariel.

"It's not like it's made by you" he added, still covering his nose.

"This is your favorite bean pie, Sweety," Joel replied as he frowned, confused by his wife's attitude.

"Ugh, is the material you use still worth using? Why does it smell so weird?" ask Ariel again.

"I just bought it yesterday, and there's nothing strange about the smell" Joel replied.

Ariel was silent, but the next second immediately ran towards the bathroom in her room. Seeing that, Joel immediately caught up with Ariel after turning off the stove.

"Sweety,,,?" call Joel.

"Don't come here!," forbid Ariel from standing in front of the closet she opened to remove her entrails.

"Hey, Sweety, "call Joel again while rubbing his wife's back.

Feeling unbearable to see his wife had drained his stomach when he had not even eaten anything.

"I told you not to come here" complained Ariel immediately closed the closet and pressed the button.

Joel led Ariel to sit on a closet, and kneel in front of her. Cleansing the corner of Ariel's lips using her thumb.

"Did you forget the oath I made when we got married?" joel asked with a faint smile.

"When healthy and sick," said Joel again rubbed the face of the wife.

"But, that's it, right, a little bit," Ariel couldn't go on. 'Scook' Ariel's inner

"Then why? You're my wife anyway" Joel replied as if he could read Ariel's mind.

"I'll get rid of the cake so you don't have to smell it anymore, now take a shower!" advice Joel.

"And we can go to the hospital" he continued.

"But you've been working hard to make it, and I didn't eat it. Though you also woke up early for that," Ariel argued felt bad.

"That's not important at the moment. The cake thing was easy, we could invite Bram and Jesica over here, and they could eat it" Joel replied.

Ariel nodded with haru's face. Letting her husband out while she performs her morning ritual.

>>>>>>--<<<<<<<

"Congratulations doctor Joel, your wife is positively pregnant" said the female doctor who had just examined Ariel's condition.

"You're really pregnant" said Joel glad to immediately hug his wife and kiss her forehead.

"The gestational age is entering the fourth week, and this is still quite young, so you are expected to be more able to take care of your wife. The young age of the womb is quite vulnerable. I'm sure you know about it" he explained.

"I understand, thank you doctor Sisca," said Joel.

"I will prescribe medicine and vitamins for your wife" he said.

"Okay" replied Joel.

Joel never once let go of his wife's hand, making the doctor Sisca who saw them just shake his head.

"You have an unexpected side, doctor Joel," seduced Sisca.

"Is this why you're asking for leave today?" ask again.

"Right," Joel replied without further ado.

"Ish, why answer without such a pause?" gerutu Ariell elbowed her husband.

"Ha ha ha, you are very different when you are with your wife" said Sisca.

"What should I say? He's too valuable to ignore" Joel replied.

"It felt like he wanted to always spoil her just so she always acted like this_, well," Joel's sentence ended in a soft groan as Ariel purposely stomped her foot.

"Why Bunny? Are you sick?" ariel asked with a plain face.

"Are you sick, doc?" sisca asked with a surprised face.

"No, just a little cramp," said Joel.

Sisca frowned, while Ariel tried to hold back the laughter.

After she finished writing the prescription, Sisca gave the note to Joel who immediately received it and left the hospital.

Seeing Joel who is the most active doctor there with a woman just came out of the obstetrician's room, making news about Ariel's pregnancy spread without being prevented. Those who were mostly present at the wedding ceremony immediately approached Joel and Ariel.

Without asking, they gave congratulations in turn to Joel and Ariel. Until they're stuck in the hospital for longer than they planned.
