His Precious Love

After giving it some thought, the man continued, “I noticed her eyeing your tummy a few times. She probably thinks it’s normal for you to bump into others with that huge tummy of yours.”

The pregnant woman leaned against her seat and rubbed her tummy. “That’s good to know. I can’t believe we got paid one million for a small favor like this! We really lucked out this time!”

“I think there’s more to this than meets the eye,” the man said with a worried frown.

“Stop worrying about it, Darling! We did exactly what he told us to! Besides, he did say it’s okay if we fail. I’m just glad we still get to keep the one million! Let’s use this money to go on vacation in Moranta! I want to deliver my baby there!”

Unlike her concerned husband, the pregnant woman was planning her dream vacation.

She even dreamt of getting permanent residency in Moranta and using the remainder of the money to start a small business.

“Hey, Darling! Could you apply for our visas tomorrow—”

She was talking so fast that she ended up choking on the orange.

“What’s the matter? Are you okay?”

Noticing that her face was turning purple, the man slowed the car down and looked for a spot to pull over.

While he was busy glancing left and right, he didn’t notice the traffic light in front of him turning red.

A huge truck then came speeding from the left side and crashed right into their car.

Bang!

Although Carl kept telling Rayna that he was old enough and didn’t require babysitting, she spent the rest of the evening with him anyway.

She was originally planning on heading back after he fell asleep, but got a little sleepy at around eleven due to her pregnancy.

Thinking she would have a hard time hailing a cab that late at night, Rayna went to sleep in the guest room instead.
