Chapter 16: What I want now is not to lose you.
POV BUA
''Positive! ''
No doubt about the outcome of the pregnancy test.
I fall to the ground and start crying in tears for this unexpected news, while I hear Pon calling me worried from outside the door.
A pregnancy was not planned at all now and it certainly upsets us. With the divorce imminent it is not safe for me and Mew. I don't want to undermine your relationship with Gulf. Even if the child is not biologically his, for the state and the whole world it could be, and that would create the problem.
I stand up and after rinsing my face I grab the test and go out to face Pon who in the meantime keeps banging on the door.
--Bua? -- he calls me right after she leaves --What does the test say? -- he asks.
--I'm pregnant. -- I'm whispering --I don't know what to do now. -- I'm still in shock.
--Meanwhile, let's sit in the living room. We had not planned it, but we must decide together. -- he tells me while we sit down.
-Pon a child... if it comes to know before the divorce is effective we may have problems! I don't want to risk our future and...-start like a flood.
--What did you say? -- He's blocking me by grabbing my arms.
--I said I'm afraid to put everything in danger. -- I repeat.
--Not this! You spoke of "our future"! Bua I...-- start in shock and I realize I may have rushed things a little bit between us.
-- You walked into my life on tiptoe and ...I think I fell in love with you! - I confess.
There's no point in keeping it in now. We're having a baby, and I really want him to love it back, but I'm aware that this is just my wish.
--It all happened too quickly, but I'm sure of one thing! This child is a blessing and I will take care of it. We will raise him together no matter what happens between us. But first I need to understand how I feel. One thing is for sure, you are important to me. -- and this, for now, is enough for me -I'll get you some water...-- ending by getting up and going into the kitchen.
--Mew! I have to tell him! A child...-- I repeat as in a trance.
--Is it true Bua? Are you pregnant? - shouts from the main hallway the voice of the only woman I never wanted her to find out so soon, my mother-in-law.
I was so wrapped up in my thoughts, I didn't realize we weren't alone anymore.
--Answer me! Are you pregnant? -- she asks me again.
-I... I...-I jump up and start stuttering.
--Are you pregnant! I will become a grandmother? -- Excited screams.
--No! That's not true! -- I'm trying to deny the evidence. -Madam, I must ask you to leave this house. - I would ask you to leave, try to calm my nerves and buy me some time in the meantime.
--Bua! -Outraged screams.
-- Please listen to her. Mew will be here soon and he will not be happy to discover your presence in this house. -- notes Pon as he enters the living room and realizes the danger.
--I don't care what the discredited one says! But I must congratulate him anyway. Finally he did something useful! I'm finally gonna be a grandmother! -- She keeps on babbling while she leaves the house all happy.
--What do we do now? I have to warn Mew! -- I say agitated looking for my phone.
--Bua...-- he calls me, but I don't hear him because I'm too agitated to find the phone, which I can't find --Bua! Stop! - - calls me again firmly, grabbing my arms. --Calm down! Mew is coming here! He already knows everything, I just warned him. Breathe and calm down. Come, let's sit, it's not good for you or the baby to shake you like this. -- He grabs me by the hand and takes me to the couch.
--Pon... of all the people who shouldn't have known, his mother was at the top of the list. Do you know that it can make his life impossible because of this pregnancy? He was waiting for nothing else to separate his son from Gulf. She did it once before, now she could do it again using me and the baby as an excuse...-- I whispered scared.
--HE IS OUR CHILD! I will not allow anyone to say otherwise. Mew will take care of the situation with his mother and I will take care of the rest. -- he says, stroking my hand.
- I can't ask you this, it's not correct. - I look into his eyes.
--Allowing another to raise my child, that's not fair! -He affirms with conviction. --Of course I didn't plan for it, but I won't allow it! I'm his father! Did I? - She ends by brushing my face this time.
--right.- I whisper as he approaches to kiss me on the forehead.
POV MEW
-Damn! -I exclaim as I enter the avenue. My mother goes out the front door, all happy and content.
I park and get out of the car while I sort my thoughts.
--Oh honey! You're home at last! -- she calls me as approaches.
--Mom... what are you doing here? -- I ask while I see her face change expression all of a sudden.
--What am I doing? What's he doing here with you! Mew I'm telling you again, stop playing and get back to your life! This thing you have among you is unhealthy! Is sick! Especially now! -- she says as she heads for her car. This behavior is rather strange.
--Madam! You must understand that I will not let Mew go. This time she will not be able to take him away! -- Gulf suddenly intervenes, but in the meantime it has approached.
--It won't happen because of me. He'll have to do it now! -- Scream before you get in the car --Take your life in your hands and look after Bua instead of following an illusion! -- concludes, facing the child, from the lowered window.
The car comes out of the driveway to race on the road.
--What was he referring to? -- he asks me concerned.
--Maybe the fact that Bua is pregnant. -- I answer --Let's go into the house now. -- I say grabbing his arm.
POV GULF
We enter and head to the living room where the voices of Pon and Bua come from .
--Bua, is everything okay? -- we ask as soon as we reach them.
--Mew your mother found out! I was so caught up in the news that I didn't notice her coming! I'm sorry! -- She jumps up, apologizing.
-- Now calm down, you've heard about it and there's nothing we can do about it. - Pon tells you.
--It'll be all right Bua, don't worry! Just focus on your pregnancy, I'll take care of my mother. -
-- Try to stay calm or the child will suffer. - I'll tell you.
---Gulf, I'm afraid he'll use us to trouble you and I don't want to. -Confess concerned.
--I won't allow it! Don't worry because my mother won't be able to do anything. I've already notified our lawyer and he promised me that he will speed up the process. -- Mew answers.
I admit I'm worried, too, but I'm sure nothing bad will happen because of the baby.
--Don't worry, if that happens, it won't be the fault of what we're going through. -I confess.
--Gulf! -- Mew takes me back.
--What? It's true! It could happen, but it certainly doesn't! -I keep going.
Mew approaches and grabbing me by the neck of his shirt pulls me up, surprising me.
--Gulf Kanawut, put it well in your head that you will not get rid of me in this life! Nor in the next! -- warns me --And fortunately for you we are not alone at this time otherwise I would give you a wide demonstration! -- concludes.
I feel my ears catch fire with his threat. He knows how to drive me crazy with desire and how little resistance I have.
--Stop it, it's not the time! -- I whisper back to my seat.
-Mew, I don't know what you want to do, but keep in mind that I won't let anyone else raise my son! - says Pon all of a sudden.
--I'm glad to hear you say that, because I love Bua and I will always be there for her and the baby, but I also think she needs to grow up with her mom and her dad. -- answers him by sitting next to me.
- Pon, Mew and I would like to live together. - I tell him while Mew takes my hand.
--I understand... I'll look for another apartment. -
--No! We would like you and Bua to live here with us. That would give us time to arrange our divorce without anyone suspecting anything. My mother has found out by now but I think she will be good if she does not notice other changes. -- explains Mew.
--What Mew is trying to say is that if he moved in with me, he'd be too exposed, and if we all lived under the same roof, no one would find that strange. -- Opinion.
--What if your mother finds out that Gulf lives with us in this house? -- asks Bua.
--If he finds out it doesn't matter, because I'm sure by then we'll be two people free. -- explains Mew.
--So... if you agree, would you like to live together for a while? -- I ask him while the two look surprised.
-Mew if this will help you, that's fine by me. Pon? -- ask him.
--This house is not mine, I stick to what you decide to do. -- He answers.
--You are now part of the family, you have the right to have your say, especially now that...-- says Mew hinting at pregnancy.
--Okay, that's fine with me, but I'm giving my room to Bua, so you two can use the mistress. -
--Bua for me you can keep the mistress. -- Mew tells her.
-No, I prefer to move to Pon's room, if that's okay! -- he says while we all nod.
--Ok, so it's decided from tonight we'll all live together. Well, what do you want to eat? -- asks Mew.
--Pizza!! -- Answer Bua.
-E pizza it is. I call and I get her. -- Mew gets up to order the pizza but Pon stops him and proposes to pick her up.
In the meantime, we plan for dinner, the future mommy goes back to our room to put away her clothes. She wouldn't let us help her, so we can talk in the kitchen.
--Are you sure this new arrangement will buy us time? -- I ask him while he sets the table.
--I hope so, but still, what I want right now is not to lose you. I want to enjoy every moment with you and recover the rest of our memories. - confesses as he approaches me in his arms.
-Mew... whatever happens, remember that I love you and that can never change! -- I confess as I approach to touch his forehead with mine.
- I know, I love you too, Gulf. Despite my amnesia, even though I've lost some of our memories, my love for you has always been there, so nothing can take you away from me. - whispers, touching my lips with his.
A kiss that starts sweet and sensual immediately turns into hard and passionate.
Mew pushes me towards the shelf and grabs my leg, pushing his pelvis towards mine.
I feel my excitement increase as my hands wander through her hair and her chest.
--Tell me you want it too!! -- she asks looking at me.
Pure passion is what I read now in his eyes. And in response, I grab his face by kissing him, sticking my tongue in his mouth, looking for his until we hear someone coughing out of embarrassment.
