You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

When Catherine saw Clarissa’s huge baby bump, she laughed. “Your neighbor told me that she guessed it’s a girl. When you were carrying Damian, your morning sickness wasn’t that bad and your tummy didn’t swell as quickly. But since this baby is different, she is likely a girl.”

Rubbing her stomach, Clarissa replied languidly. “I sure hope so. Matthew has bought a ton of things for girls and even painted the baby room pink. There doesn’t seem to be any doubt in his mind. If it turns out to be a boy, I’m sure he will be disappointed.”

“Don’t worry, you’re a lucky gal. I’m sure it’s a girl, just like both of you wanted.”

As Clarissa’s tummy grew bigger, the seasons grew warmer.

However, Catherine seemed to be growing weaker potentially due to the heat.

In the mornings, she would wake up for a while and chat with Clarissa. After that, she would go back to sleep out of exhaustion.

In truth, Clarissa was cognizant of what was going on. Catherine was advancing in age and becoming frailer. Although she didn’t have any disease, age was just catching up.

Despite being mentally prepared, Clarissa still hoped that Catherine would be able to hang on.

When she saw Catherine fall asleep while talking, Clarissa quickly got Jenny to cover her with a blanket. As she watched her grandma, she talked to her daughter in her tummy.

Actually, it was easy for them to find out the baby’s gender by then. It was just that Clarissa instructed the doctor not to reveal it.

She was worried that Matthew would be disappointed to find out that it was a boy.

Hence, it was better not to face the truth yet.

Standing up, Clarissa massaged her back. Her baby had tormented her throughout the pregnancy. She started off with morning sickness and was experiencing cramps at night now.

When she had Damian, she didn’t have any problems at all. It was evident this baby, regardless of its gender, was going to be a difficult one to raise.

Meanwhile, she headed into the garden for a walk under the shade of the trees. After chatting with Matthew on video, she returned to the house. When she inquired about the progress of the movie, she was informed that it would be ready for screening during the holiday season.

Filled with anticipation, Clarissa couldn’t wait to see it.

Although she could now watch the edited version, she didn’t want to watch it at home. Instead, she preferred to watch it amongst the audience in the cinema.

In the afternoon, Yaala dropped by Zen Highlands. Other than visiting Clarissa, she had something else to discuss.

Worried that Clarissa would be utterly bored at home, Matthew had asked some of her friends to drop by for a chat with her.

Obviously, the best way to cure boredom was the internet; however, there were just too many negative comments on it. Hence, Matthew forbade Clarissa from using her phone or the computer. Therefore, her only connection to the outside world was through her friends.
