Chapter 19

It is almost five in the evening; I stopped my work and sat relaxed. This Saturday I don't have to go on ‘Date’, Mike said he is going to see his grandparents, he even apologized, he doesn’t have to but, I am very happy. I don't have to tell ‘No’ to him, I escaped again. I really wish to have a break now. I closed my eyes and rested my head on the back of the chair.

"Elena" someone called and patted my shoulders, I opened my eyes, looked at who that is and it is our receptionist Mary. What happened now, I looked at her puzzled.

"Someone named Jacob called for you, dear" she said

"I don't know any Jacob, Mary, I think that call is for someone else" I replied. I really don't know anyone named Jacob

“I’ve asked all the Elena's in the office, but it is not them" she stopped "They even talked with him, I think it's for you" she said silently, I don't remember any Jacob.

"Okay Mary, connect his call to my phone" I said, but I don't really remember anyone with that name.

“Okay dear, I'll" she went. I am at the telephone waiting to get connected to the unknown Jacob.

"Elena Dear, I am connecting you" Mary said and the call got connected

"Hello, this is Elena speaking"

"Elena, we should leave, it is 5:30 already" he said, I think he is angry. Why is he angry?

"Who is this?”

"Jacob"

"Sorry, but I don't know any Jacob"

"Your First" he said laughing, What????? FUCK!!! It is him, I forgot his name, I am stupid, I am so stupid. I think I am late, I checked the clock and it is 5:30pm. I must have slept and that is why he is angry .We had an appointment.

"Sorry, I am coming" I said and disconnected the call. I took my wallet and mobile, it has fifteen missed calls. All, from him. I didn't take his call, so he called the reception. I reached the reception, Mary is busy with her work, “Thank you Mary, it is for me" I shouted, she smiled and nodded.

He is not outside, I looked for him. A Mercedes came and stopped right before me. Who is that? A fully dressed man came out of it, Wow it is him, he dropped me in the same car in the morning, why the hell am I forgetting everything about him. He came and hugged me tightly, before I know my hands are wrapping him.

"Hey Sweetie, let's go we are late" he said, planted a soft kiss on my lips and started leading me to his car.

"Sorry" I apologized

"For what?"

"For forgetting your name" I said looking down, he lifted my face to his

"Don't be Ellie; I like the name you remember” he said and gave me an appreciation kiss, I blushed. Yeah I only remember him as my first. We reached the hospital. He held my hand in his, Oh My God, my dream has come true, day before yesterday when I was here, I saw a couple in the hospital and felt jealous, here we are, holding hands and walking together, I hugged myself. He looked at me with his eyebrows middle together in confusion, I shake my head as nothing, we moved forward.

Room was empty, I think she went somewhere. We both sat on the chairs holding hands.

"I think it’s already been 15 days" Someone said from behind, we both turned back, it was my doctor, what? Is she angry, that I came today; she slowly came towards us and sat on her chair opposite to ours.

"I was just joking, I see the father too has come” she said and smiled at him, yeah he is, I looked at him, he is smiling, he is happy, by the father thing I think.

"Jacob Powell" he said and raised his hand, her eyes widened, why? Her eyes, not leaving his. What is happening?

“Amanda Brown, nice to meet you" they shook their hands,

"I wanted to meet you and know" he said sincerely

"What do you want to know? Mr. Powell"

"Everything" she laughed and started telling him what she told me yesterday. I lost my concentration on listening to her, maybe because I've already heard it yesterday. Suddenly he tightened his grip on my hand, what? What happened? I looked at him, he is engaged in listening and his expressions didn’t change. His face was so mesmerizing, his chin, jaw line everything was so perfect. I want to kiss him now, no Ell, you are in the hospital and don’t be a stupid. I scolded myself.

"It is good for the child, when both mother and father involve in the early pregnancy" she said looking at both of us, I nodded with a smile

"So, did I give the information needed, Mr. Powell" she asked looking at him, her tone changed. Why? What happened? Did I miss anything?

"Thank you Dr. Brown, I am glad that she is in your hands" he said and both shook their hands. She looked at me with a smile and I nodded with an honest smile. He held my hand and we left the room.

"We are in good hands, we'll overcome this" he said

"Hmm" I nodded, yes fingers crossed.

"We have to take some precautions" he curled me into his arms, by wrapping his arm around my waist and kissed my forehead. I really got encouraged with this meet. All I want is my baby's safety. I placed my hand on my stomach ‘don’t worry everything will be alright’ suddenly he placed his hand on mine on my stomach

"We will take care, don’t worry" he said seeing my facing and then my stomach. Wait, I didn't say that loudly, but how did he know I was talking with the baby. I think he definitely is a Psychic.

"Come ‘on lets have some food and then drop you" he leaded

We had our dinner and on our way to my house, I am having so many thoughts; no I don't have to think too much, it is not good for the baby. I took a deep breath and looked out of the car’s window. We reached. I got down and I was about to get inside

"I'll call you, before I come" he said, his tone changed. I think he has some mood swing issues. I rolled my eyes and nodded .He hugged me tightly and kissed my forehead, yay! My hugs and kisses are back, I smiled and went inside
