EPISODE SEVENTEEN
Theme: His baby
Arike’s POV
“No..no..no..my heart beat skipped two beats at a time. Suddenly I went into hyperventilating mode! And I couldn't control it.
"Hey..Arike...Arike.." she shook my shoulders. "Can you hear me?!"
She sprinkled water on my face and held me tight so I wouldn't hit the ground.
"Pull yourself together! Relax...breathe in breathe out.." I did as she instructed until my breathing returned back to normal.
"Are you okay now?" She asked with a worried look.
"Come..you need to relax." She led me out of the bathroom.
"We..we..need to talk." I whispered.
"Yes..yes..I know..but we will do that after you get enough rest. You don't need to stress yourself because of the baby."
The mention of _baby_ brought tears to my eyes as I lay back in bed.
