At first, Luna wanted to let Ethan sleep on her lap a little longer, but she felt very sore and hot. Finally, the pregnant woman gave up and woke her husband to move to the room instead.
"Honey, wake up! I'm tired if this goes on, I also want to lie down."
Ethan slowly opened his eyes and looked at Luna, who was grimacing in pain while holding her waist and shaking her legs. He immediately woke up in a panic.
"What happens?" Ethan asked.
"I'm tired, my legs also feel a cramp," replied Luna as she looked down and massaged her calf legs.
"I'll do the massage." Ethan got off the sofa and squatted and massaged Luna's calf which she said was cramped.
"Oh jeez, what happens?" asked Dina, who had just arrived, followed by Alexa behind her. There was Andrew who was with them too.
"It's okay, Mom. Just cramp." Luna answered with a reassuring smile. The massage from her husband did make her feel better. The cramps were fading away, but her waist still felt sore.
"That's normal, Dear. Pregnant women will have cramps more often when the pregnancy is getting older. You must be patient and fighting." Dina tries to encourage her daughter-in-law. Although she never felt the weight of carrying twins.
Andrew and Alexa were still on the sofa, watching the interaction between husband and wife and in-laws.
"Women are heroes," mumbled Andrew.
Alexa turns to look at Andrew. she heard the man say, then responded, "Maybe one day I will too."
"Of course, because you are a woman. When we are married, I will impregnate you," Andrew said softly with a teasing glance. Ah, they are like very close people. or maybe they are already dating?
Alexa grins at Andrew. His words seemed to undermine her faith even more. The girl's cheeks flushed and her nose flared. "Don't be ridiculous! If you want to marry me, you have to meet my father and conquer the challenge he will give for you."
Andrew leaned his face to Alexa's ear, then said, "I'm not brave."
"Then, follow me to Singapore when I have graduated!" whispered Alexa with a ridiculous smile. Ah, it turns out that her love is not unrequited. it meant Nathalie and Jenny were going to fire their beards for not winning Andrew's heart.
"Okay, I will come to you," Andrew replied with a ridiculous smile. His gaze returned to Ethan who led Luna to the room, while Dina went to the kitchen instead.
"Next time if I overslept like that, just wake up instead of you being cramped like this," Ethan exclaimed as he led Luna up the stairs.
"I didn't have the heart to wake you up," replied Luna, clutching her waist. She even felt her stomach stiffen.
"It is okay. the point is not like that again, I can't bear to see you like a gouty person like this." Ethan watched Luna who kept clutching her sore waist.
"Haha ... I'm gout, not just like," Luna chuckled as she glanced at Ethan, who was also smiling now.
"You have to be strong and patient until they are born."
"That's for sure, I will be strong for them and also for you."
"Why am I also included?" Ethan asked.
"If I am not strong, I may not serve you anymore from now on," replied Luna with a teasing smile.
"No problem. I'll hold it."
"Don't be so sure."
"I'm sure, for good." Ethan smiled reassuringly.
Because they walked while brushing, they unknowingly arrived at the room, Luna immediately lay down, straightening her gouty waist.
"I want to see Andrew for a moment," said Ethan as he wrapped Luna's feet.
"Actually, why did you ask him here?" asked Luna.
"We must talk about a bodyguard," Ethan replied as he sat on the edge of the bed. He returned to massaging Luna's foot, which was cramped earlier.
"I don't like bodyguards. In the past, when I was a model, I was also guarded when the paparazzi were still heavily following. I want to interview or mingle with fans, but bodyguards sometimes make me uncomfortable and not free." Luna recalled her past.
"It's only temporary, honey. Until the perpetrator is caught."
"Shandra and I have other reasons to accuse Edward." Luna got up the nerve to talk about Edward. Because she didn't want her husband, to bother renting a bodyguard for her.
"What is the reason?" Ethan asked.
"Promise me that you will not get mad at me when I'm honest about this," exclaimed Luna.
"Yes, I'll promise, because I can't be mad at you," Ethan replied confidently.
Luna took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. She looked down and tried to dare to say about her past that had been Edward's lover.
'Hopefully, this honesty will not cause a rift between me and you or you and Edwards,' she thought.
"I was suspicious of Edward because he ... he was a former lover who always bothered me." Luna seemed nervous to say the facts she had been keeping.
Ethan frowned after hearing Luna's words. "Have you been dating?" he asked, looking down at Luna's eyes.
Luna nodded. "Sorry, for not saying it the first time. I just don't want to bring up the past. But, before I accepted you, he kept coming to see me and asking me to come back with him."
"Then, what is your response?" Ethan asked investigating.
"I always refused," replied Luna.
"Is it because of me or because you don't want to hurt Viona?" he asked again.
Luna swallowed her saliva. Her eyes glanced at Ethan, who was starting to scold her with questions. "I always get advice from Shandra and Arsha to accept you and maintain our marriage."
"I need your answer, Honey. not about anyone's advice," Ethan grabbed Luna's shoulders, trying to reassure her that he wouldn't be angry.
"The first, I have indeed thrown away my love for him because he left me for Viona. At that time I was learning to love you." Luna started explaining slowly.
Patiently, Ethan listened to Luna's explanation even though he was a little surprised. he did not think that his wife was the girl who had been in love with his brother.
Luna sighed and then returned to explain, "even though you never seduce me, slowly love comes along with your care and kindness that I just found out. Because I used to have a bad view of you."
Ethan smiled a little and said, "all women will have a bad look at a man who fucks a girl in an unconscious state. I was presumptuous, even then you were a virgin. It is only natural that you have a bad view of me."
Luna shook her head and lightly touched Ethan's cheek. Her eyes filled with tears because she didn't want the man in front of her to reproach his mistakes again. "You're not a jerk, Honey. Maybe that's how fate brought us together. You are a good man, the best husband, and the most patient man for me."
"Edward is better. He kept your chastity, then I took it away, He must respect you." Ethan praised Edward instead.
"Edward was just a cowardly man who didn't have the persistence to fight for the love he prefers property to me, which means I have to get rid of my feelings for him. And your presence makes me forget that I ever loved him. Even I am sick of seeing him always being selfish and feeling the most self-righteous. "
Ethan remembers that every time Luna meets Edward, she will put on a sour face and bad mood. "Is he the one who always puts you in a bad mood?" he asked.
Luna responded with a nod. "Even though he tried to seduce me, I always thought about you and our child's future. that's why I always refused."
"Then, why are you sure he did it?" Ethan asked.
"Maybe he wanted me to come back to him," said Luna. But she thought back to Edward's yesterday's indifference. "But I'm not sure, because he already accepted Viona as a wife."
Ethan was unmoved for a moment thinking about Luna's words. He remembered how Edward had always protected him from childhood and never let him be hurt. He feels like impossible if now even wants to harm him just for reasons of romance.
"I'm not sure either, there could be other culprits," Ethan said.
"Aren't you angry?" asked Luna.
"Why am I angry, I'm just glad you wanted to be open with me," Ethan replied with a reassuring smile.
Luna smiled with relief, she immediately hugged her husband who always tolerated it. She did not expect Ethan's response to be so relaxed and did not question her that she had hidden her past with Edward.
