Chapter52
Catalaiya’s pov:
(December 1st)
This week, I was in my 10th week of pregnancy. A lot changed during these past weeks; I feel more tired, my lower back hurts as my body was expanding as the baby grow and a lot of smells irritate
- me. Also, I throw up some of my meals.
Every day Thalia makes me a light meal for the day so that I don’t throw up and most of the time it
works. Some days are just worst and more tiring. Thankfully in my office, we have a bathroom on
our floor that only me and Nayvee uses and I can quickly run there to throw up.
Like right now.
I’m kneeling near the toilet, throwing up my lunch. Every time, I throw up I feel a wave of tiredness wash over me. I flushed the toilet before walking to the sink to wash my mouth.
Once I was done, I made my way outside.
“Hey, are you okay?” Nayvee asked concerned.
I sighed, “Yeah, just a little tired.”
“Do you want me to get you some juice?” She asked and I thought about it. Maybe a little sweet can
give me some energy…
“Yes please,”
She nodded. I walked back to my office and sat down on my chair, leaning my back. The chair
seemed uncomfortable. I closed my eyes for a few minutes.
Looked like I did fall asleep as Nayvee shook my arm to wake me up.
“You should go home and rest. Moreover, we don’t have any meetings this evening.” She pointed
out.
“Ok, I’ll go.” I agreed. She handed me the cup of fresh mango juice and I took a sip. The sweetness and freshness felt good. I called Alfred and told him to pick me up.
I wore my long coat as I walked outside the building. Since my bump wasn’t showing, no one in the office know that I’m pregnant and I like it to remain this way.
My bump did grow. Whenever I’m looking at myself in the mirror at home, wearing only my bra and underwear, I can see the small bump forming. However, when I wore full outfit clothes, I look like

my normal self.
“Hey,” Alfred greeted me.
“Hey,”
“Not feeling good?” He asked and I shook my head no.
“Let’s go home.”
I sat down in the car and he drove us. Soon we reached and I made my way inside. Thalia was by the couch vacuuming the rug, she stopped the machine and turned toward me.
“You came home early today.” She said concerned.
“Yeah, I throw up my lunch and I’m feeling really tired,” I spoke.
“Oh, go rest then and if you need anything just call me.” She says and I nodded.
I walked upstairs and removed my coat. I changed into a soft pair of white crop top and pink short, the material of the clothes were like fluffy blankets and it was cosy.
I lay on the bed and let out a sigh of content when my back hit the soft mattress at the same time as my head hit the soft pillow. I pull the blanket to my waist before closing my eyes and letting sleep
take over.
Aziel’s pov:
Before coming home, I stopped by one of the bakeries and took some doughnuts for Catalaiya. These past days were rough and tiring for her, hopefully, these doughnuts can make her night
better.
I walked inside the house with the box in my hand. Thalia was by the kitchen, preparing something.
“Hey,” I greeted her.
She looked up, “Oh hey.”
“How is she?” I inquired as I put the box on the counter.
“She came home early in the afternoon sick and tired. She has been sleeping since.” She replied.
Oh.
“I’ll check on her,” I says and she nodded.
I made my way upstairs and slowly opened the door. I looked at the bed and there she was sleeping

cosily against the pillows while her body was wrapped in the blanket.
I quietly went to the bathroom, take a shower and changed my clothes. I wore my grey sweatpants and white t–shirt before going to the bed. I lightly shake her shoulders to wake her up. She stirred and turned on her back. I leaned and kissed her cheek.
“Hey,” she said softly as she smile slightly at me.
“Hey, how are you?” I asked.
“I’m better now, I needed that sleep.” She answered.
“How about you eat something now?” I suggested.
“Ok,” she agreed.
Catalaiya’s pov:
I climbed off the bed and wore a cardigan on me. We both made our way downstairs. Thalia was
setting the table while Alfred was by the table talking to her.
“Hey,”
I sat down at my usual seat and Aziel sat beside me.
“I made you a smoothie fruit bowl,” Thalia said as she put the bowl in front of me.
“It smells good,” Aziel commented.
Let’s pray, I don’t throw up…
“Thank you,” I grabbed my spoon and taste it. It was delicious and the flavour didn’t make me gag. Yay!
Soon we all started to eat our dinner. I finished my food quickly as I was hungry. When I was done, Aziel stood and went to grab something from the counter. He came back and put it in front of me.

I gasped, “Oh my god.”
“All yours… just keep one for me,” Aziel said making us chuckle.
“Sure, which one?” I asked him.
“The plain glazy one.” He answered.
I grabbed the cookies doughnut and took a bite. I leaned in my seat, enjoying it.

“Did you notice that you crave sweet food?” Thalia suddenly pointed out.
Now that she was mentioning it, she was right… I didn’t throw up the juice at my office, I didn’t throw up the smoothie fruit bowl and neither did this doughnut.
“Yeah…” I nodded.
“You don’t have any other cravings?” Aziel asked me and I shook my head no.
“Not right now,” I added.
When we finished eating, Aziel and I walked to the pool and sat on the edge, our feet in the water. I laid my head on his shoulder as we sat there, talking about casual things.
