Alessandro's POV:-
I thank Mrs. Ganguly who only nod in response before telling me that I can go inside. So, without wasting any more time I get inside the room with a big smile on my face. However, my smile turn into worry when I notice that Anhuphama is standing in front of the window looking lost and most importantly scared. I have thought that she will be thrilled after learning about the good news but her tears stained face is saying another thing. Who am I kidding? She must be scared because this is her first pregnancy so like other women she is also worried that she won't be able to take good care of our unborn child. But she doesn't need to worry about anything because I will be there with her at every step and we will learn everything together.
With that thought in mind, I get near her and wrap my arms around her stomach want to feel the life that is growing inside her. She trembles at first, but then get relax when she realizes that it is me. She puts her palms on top of my hands which is now completely resting on her stomach. I inhale her naturally sweet scent before bending down a little to nuzzle the side of her neck. But suddenly I hear the sound of sniffles making me look at her to see that she is silently crying which gets me in a protective mode. I turn her around to face me but she only looks at the floor while nonstop tears fall from her eyes making my heart clench at the sight.
"What's wrong Cara? Why are you crying?" I ask her as gently as I can. But she only shakes her head while wiping the tears with her sleeves.
"Come on sweetheart tell me what's bothering you so that I can help you. You know right that you shouldn't cry like this in your condition, don't you?" I ask her in which she nods her head in response.
"Then, you should stop crying or our little baby will cry too because I am sure that he or she doesn't want to have a crying mommy." I tell her and wipe her tears with the pads of my thumb. Then I pick her in my arms bridal style and walk towards the bed before sitting down with her on my lap.
"Now, tell me why were you crying?" I ask her while looking down at her.
"I was just overwhelmed after knowing about the pregnancy." She mumbles while playing with the button of my shirt.
"There is nothing to be overwhelmed about sweetheart. Also, I know that you will be the best mother for our upcoming baby because I have been seeing the way you raise our daughter. So, don't worry about anything else instead think about the happy future we are going to have." I explain to her. She looks kind of uneasy but despite it, she gives me a small smile in return.
"I am sorry for scaring you, Alessandro. I was just making spaghetti and then suddenly I started feeling dizzy. Before I knew what's happening, I started to see black dots in front of my eyes." She replies with a scared voice.
"It's okay Cara. Yes, you did scare me at first but after learning about your pregnancy I can not tell you how happy you have made me today. So, thank you for blessing me with such an incredible gift. I am promising you that I will be there with you in every little step and we are going to cherish everything together." I tell her with a bright smile on my face. This time she also has a big smile on her face indicating that she is also very happy with the news.
