Chapter 22 — A Gift From God

That afternoon, Haven and Aviana were having lunch together at the restaurant.
"Hey, do you think we should let your parents manage everything? Don't you think it's a bit inappropriate?" she asked in worried.
"Well, that's what my parents want and they actually love it since I'm the only child in the family" he said giggled.
"Wait a minute! You said, you got a brother?" she was confused for a while.
"Umm, actually, about that…"
"So you lied to me huh?" she teased.
"Okay, to tell you the truth is I don't have any siblings and the dress that we were fitting about a few months ago was for us actually," he said.
"For us?"
"Yeah, I wanted to give you some surprises but it turned out to be something worse after that because of Vinod," he continued.
"Then, you actually lied to me?!"
"W-well…for the sake of my mom, I really wanted to keep it a secret but you already asked at that time and I had no choice except lying…" he said.
"It seems that I can't have that reason, Sir Haven Victor" she said.
"Then, what reason do you prefer?" he giggled.
"I don't know but since you already told me the truth, it'll be a past and I don't care~" she said smiling.
"Thank you…" he's zoning out at her.
"For what?" she giggled.
"For every forgiveness that you have given and love that you still keep for me" he said.
"I also wanted to thank for still chasing me even after everything I did and not giving up on me even the rumor about my death" she smiled.
"We should be telling the truth more often, aren't we?" he laughed.
"Yeah~"
They finished the lunch and Haven called the waiter.
Aviana was feeling unwell and unstable with her body. She shakes Haven's hands and he looks at her with a sudden pale face. Haven stands to pay for the meal.
Aviana can't hold her heavy head and collapses but luckily Haven is able to catch her.
"Aviana!?" he tried to wake her up but her body felt cold.
Without wasting any time, he brings her in bridal style and gets into the car. In a few minutes they were already in hospital.

"How's her?" his dad asked.
"The doctor is still checking her," Haven said.
"How did this happen?" his mom asked.
"I don't know, we just having lunch and after that, she collapsed, I don't know if someone try to poison the food or sabotage her and—"
"Haven, don't make any rushed conclusion" his mom said.
"Y-yeah, you're right but I'm worried!" Haven said.
"Is there any weird behavior from her before?" his mom continued.
"Uh…actually, she's puked every morning since last week and eats something weird like tomato sauce with cotton candy…eee…" he looked at his mom weirdly.
"Also, she's quite different today and a bit scary…" he continued.
"Woah, your wife looked like your mom when she first conceived you back then" his dad giggled.
"Really?" Haven asked.
"Yes actually but—"
"But the things that your mom ate were more weird like ice cream with tuna~" he said giggling.
"Don't say that ever again, I'll puked out next, eee…" he said, traumatized.
"You'll be a father, Haven. That's what your mom wanted to say" his dad tapped on his shoulder and Haven was stunned with his brain trying to process the things that his dad had said.
"Wait what?! How did you know?!" he was shocked for a moment.
"Well, you can actually google for it," his mom said.
"Nah, I'll just wait for the doctor…" he said, crossing his arms.

"Mom! It says here that pregnant women might have morning sickness…is that troublesome?" he asked while scrolling through the website at google.
"Well, for the first week or month, it'll be a nightmare but after that it'll reduce, don't worry" his mom explained.
"You actually googled it?" his dad giggled.
"For real, if I am really gonna be a father, I really need to go back to school and learn how to take care of a pregnant wife," he said.
"Just learn from your mom and me, nothing will go wrong if you learn from us" his dad said.
"How can I trust that?" he frowned.
His parents looked at each other.
"Actually, it's better to look for additional information on google," his mom said.

A few minutes after that, the doctor came out and called the family.
"There's nothing wrong with Miss Aviana, she just has difficulty breathing," the doctor said.
Haven widened his eyes with hopes and waited for the doctor.
"And?" he said in excitement.
"And Miss Aviana wants to meet you at her room, I'll get going now" the doctor said and walked away.
"What? Just that? I thought you're gonna be a father?" his dad tapped his shoulder.
"I hope for that too…" Haven fake sobbing.
"Both of us will get going as we don't want Aviana to feel uncomfortable, call us if you got anything, okay?" his mom said, pinching his son's cheek.
"Mom, I'm not your baby!" he said, embarrassed.
"You are and always gonna be~~" his mom teased again.
After his parents left, Haven walked into her room and saw her sitting at the bed zoning out.
"Honey~" he called and brought Aviana back to reality.
"Haven~" she smiled.
Haven was a bit frowning as he saw her smile a bit faded and looking sad.
"You got something in mind? Why is my sunshine surrounded by heavy clouds?" he asked and made her giggle.
"What kind of pickup lines is that? It looks nerdy~" she said.
"I know because of that I said it, you like it very much isn't it?" he looked into her eyes.
It looks heavy, sad, disappointed and negative.
"Aviana, you know that I can hear every problem that you have right?" he asked but she just nodded then looked at his face.
"Haven, if one day, we can't be like this anymore…what'll you do?" she asked in a smile.
"Why are you saying something like this?" Haven frowned.
"I'm curious what you're gonna do" she caressed his hands gently and slowly put it to her face.
"If one day, you lost your love, would you leave me immediately and not come back?" she asked and it made Haven confused.
"No! I'll not leave you cause my love is not gonna fade and go anywhere except staying in your heart!" he insisted.
"Good then…" Aviana slowly hugged him.
"What? Something happened? Are you sick? You're not gonna leave me too right?" he becomes panicked and her hug becomes tighter.
"This time, you no need to worry cause mommy and daddy are here to protect you and let you see the world" she said and Haven confused.
He was so confused until he saw a pregnancy test at the table beside the bed, then he got it.
"You're pregnant?!!" she reached her shoulder.
With half crying, she nodded in happiness. Haven was jumping in happiness and almost crying.
"Why are you crying?" Aviana giggled with her eyes still in tears.
"I'm not! I'm just too happy! I'm gonna be a father!!" he said and hugged her.
"I know! I'm gonna be a mother, we're gonna be parents!" she said.
"I seriously thank god and you, honey!" he said and kissed her lips.
"You should thank this little one too as he or she is the one who chose to stay and be with us," she said.
"Thanks my little~ I promise to make you and mom happy~~" he kissed her belly.
That night, Haven doesn't allow Aviana to go anywhere and just stay on the bed. She was even carried to the toilet.
"Haven!!! You are being too much!!!" she hit him with a pillow.
Haven caught the pillow and was on top of her "Am I?" he smirked and laid beside her.
"Yes! I don't want to just sit in the room and can't even get out of bed!!" she hugged him even madly.
"Then what do you want to do?" he giggled.
"Would you let me do it?!" she said in excitement.
"Nope, just asking~" he teased and got a chest hit from her.
"Hate you!!" she turned aside.
"Aww, don't hate me~ what will the child think hmm?" he pinched his beloved fiance's cheek.
"Well, it's still in development and it means it doesn't have any organs, idiot!" she said, covering herself in a blanket.
"How cruel!" he smirked and giggled.
"I am!" Aviana then being silent and Haven opened the blanket just to see she already in a deep calming sleep.
"What a lucky guy I am to have you~" he kissed her forehead and they fell into sweet dreams.
