Chess Pieces #5: Loki Von Amstel

Chapter 82

The past few days had been quiet for us which was good since we need time to rest and to recover. Half of the EL Ordre's members were wounded and L hasn't been awake yet which put Codee in more distress.

Loki wouldn't let me go out of the room if not for necessary things. He wants me to completely recover my strength and for my wounds to heal. Since I am now pregnant, he wants me to avoid stress. He said that it's bad for my pregnancy.

They said that the first few months of pregnancy were critical. It was a good thing na malakas ang kapit ng bata sa tyan ko that even after what happened in that forest, the baby is still inside my tummy.

Such a fighter...

I was standing in front of the full length mirror inside my room that morning after I ate my breakfast and did my morning routine. It was still kinda hard to move for me since the gunshot wounds on my back will hurt by just a sudden movements. Kaya dahan-dahan pa din ako sa pagkilos ko.

I was wearing Loki's longsleeve white polo shirt. It has become my habit to wear his shirts. Maluwag kasi iyon at bawal sa akin ang masikip dahil sa sugat sa likod ko. He's not complaining at kahit maubusan pa sya ng damit ay wala yatang planong magreklamo.

It was a beautiful morning. The sun was up and shining brightly that the sun rays goes through the large panel glass window of my room. I could hear the birds chirping from the outside making me feel like I'm living a normal life.

After what I've gone through at the Red Faction's hideout, I do deserve to let my mind and body rest for awhile right?

I just want to feel being back in Loki's arms again.

"I'm excited for my baby bump."

Patagilid pa akong nakatayo sa harap ng salamin para mas makita kung may baby bump na nga ako.

Dahil maluwag ang suot ay hinigpitan ko iyon at ang ibang tela ay hinawakan sa likod so I could see my flat stomach. Nang hindi makuntento ay itinaas ko na ang damit hanggang tyan ko. I was wearing a pajama pants even if I'm used with only wearing an underwear if I have a top like this. But Loki was so strict. Malalamigan daw ako at baka makaapekto pa daw sa bata at sa sugat ko.

Loki was standing behind me. Handang-handa para umalalay kahit nakakatayo na naman ako. Iyon nga lang, kailangan dahan-dahanin ang paggalaw para hindi sumakit ang sugat sa likod ko.

"When do you think I will have it?" I asked.

"I've no idea. I haven't experienced being pregnant yet."

I glared and rolled my eyes at him because of his stupid answer. He laughed and stood closer to me and hugged me from behind. His hands caressed my stomach.

"Let's visit an ob-gyne once you get better and ask her, hm?"

I pouted a bit. Iritado pa din sa sagot nya pero hindi na lang masyadong pinansin. Pero natigilan nang may maisip.

"What's wrong?" tanong nya nang makita ang pagbabago ng expression ko through the reflection of the mirror.

"I just thought of something."

"That is?"

He put his chin on my shoulders. I craned my neck to gave more space for him.

"I'm worried."

"About what?"

"When my tummy gets bigger, I'm worried that I might look like a fat cow."

Natulala sya so I continued talking.

"God! I will look ugly!"

Loki chuckled and buried his face on my neck that irritates me more. What's so funny? I'm so worried here! Fuck! Can't I get pregnant without having a mega big stomach?
