Chapter 1977- Live in the Moment
Finally, peace and quiet descended. Juanita, hunched over in front of the screen, hurriedly askedher most pressing question. "How is it, giving birth? Does it hurt?" Joyce shrugged, "It's bearable."
"I'm scared, I'm afraid of the pain, you know," Juanita's face filled with worry, "What should I do?Maybe I should just have a C-section. But everyone else wants me to have a natural birth."
"Everyone meaning Constance? Your mother-in-law?" Joyce asked with a smile. "Yes, I think theyall want me to have a second child, a third child. Of course, a natural birth. But I'm really scared, I'veread online about women talking about the pain, they say childbirth is a level 12 pain, just thinkingabout it makes me afraid," Juanita's tone was clearly not happy.
"Even Karl wants me to have a natural birth, dragging me out for walks every day. He even makesme climb stairs, says it's exercise, that it'll make childbirth easier. Joyce, do you think they know I'mhaving a daughter? Do they all hope I'll give them a son in the future?"
Joyce shook her head, "You, normally so optimistic. Why are you getting confused now? Naturalbirth is definitely better. What does it have to do with whether you have a boy or a girl? I thinkConstance definitely prefers a girl. Karl too. You're overthinking things."
"I know, my mother-in-law has said more than once that she likes girls. Before the child is evenborn, there are all kinds of beautiful dresses piled up, feels like even if I had ten children, theywouldn't wear them all," Juanita pouted.
"So, don't worry. Now we have painless delivery. I used it when I gave birth, and the pain was muchreduced. And, Karl is right, you climb stairs every day, exercise more. The baby will be born faster,
and there will be less pain. Listen to him, he really cares about you," Joyce said, "Seeing you two,so loving, I am also relieved."
"Hehe. Not bad. I thought he was a wooden block, but after spending time together, I didn't expecthim to be quite understanding," Juanita's face was full of happiness. Joyce looked at Juanita withsatisfaction, ever since leaving the Capital, she tried not to disturb their lives too much.
Love was always about companionship, over time, habits became part of each other. Just likeJuanita and Karl now, finally becoming an enviable couple. "Oh, enough about me. Let me tell youabout Nina," Juanita suddenly perked up.
"Nina, how is she?" Joyce, concerned, had not heard this name in a while, "And Chris? Is he still inthe Capital?" "Chris, he came a while ago, stayed for almost half a month, and then left. It's saidthat he will come back by the end of this month, because Nina is also about to give birth. Nina gotpregnant before me, her due date is the end of this month," Juanita stood up, sat at the table andchanged her posture, stretching her limbs.
"Oh, Nina is about to give birth. I've been so focused on myself, I forgot about this," Joyce's faceshowed a hint of apology, "Do they know if it's a boy or a girl?" "A boy. Chris is overjoyed," Juanitaexclaimed, "Every time Nina goes for a check-up, I accompany her, the baby is very healthy. Let metell you, her personality, she's much more cheerful than before, with more smiles on her face.Although Chris can't be with her all the time, every time he comes, oh, the two of them... It'sunbearable, I can't even look,"
"Hehe, Chris is domineering, Nina is too shy, when they show affection, it's really unbearable towatch," Joyce agreed. "Exactly, Chris bought a big villa near Nina's school, every time he comes, hebrings Nina back home, the two of them stay together all day, sometimes Nina can't even answermy calls," Juanita couldn't help but complain.novelbin
"I saw an advertisement for Nina's violin concert online. Did you go?" Joyce asked. "That was a longtime ago, every show was sold out. I went to listen, it was really amazing. She's definitely a genius.After her belly got big, Chris didn't let her perform, said standing for a long time was not good for thebaby. Nina listened obediently and didn't hold another concert. But I heard she's already preparingfor a solo concert three months after giving birth," Juanita said.
"Joyce, when are you coming back to the Capital? All three of us will have children by then. Let'sget together with the children." "Yes. Of course. But, I remember Chris saying he would take thechild back to Alvonia. Maybe Nina will fly to Alvonia from time to time to see the child. Maybe wewon't be able to gather together," Joyce reminded.
"Oh, I forgot about that. It's okay, we haven't been together for a long time, I miss you so much,"Juanita sighed. "I miss you too," Joyce reached out and pinched Juanita's cheek through thescreen, "Don't think too much. The most important task now is to have a safe childbirth. Then takecare of yourself. Listen to Karl, he'll take good care of you."
"Okay," Juanita looked overwhelmed. Joyce smiled, Juanita really was tightly held by Karl. "Alright,you just gave birth. You should rest well, but you've been chatting with me all this time. I won't keepyou any longer, go and rest. When my godsons are discharged from the hospital, be sure to sendme pictures," Juanita waved her hand at Joyce, giving her final instructions.
"Don't worry, I will. Take care of yourself, make sure to have everything ready for childbirth," Joycealso reminded. "Goodbye," Juanita reluctantly ended the video call. Joyce placed her phone aside,she lay back, seeing that they were all doing well. Her mood relaxed, dispelling the dark cloud thatGrayson had left behind. Oh well, worrying was all unnecessary.
No matter when Grayson reappeared, living in the present was most important.
