Wiping the tears from her face, Veronica nodded her head and asked in a pleading voice, "Doctor can you please hide the possibility of me being pregnant from my husband and tell him that it's some indigestion problem?"

Seeing the confused look on the doctor's face, Veronica immediately described, "Actually, I want to confirm about it first before telling my husband. If somehow the test doesn't come positive, he'll get upset but will still try to look happy because of me which I don't want.. 

And if God blesses and I really am pregnant, then I want to tell him this happiest news of our life personally, by giving him a special surprise. So can you please help me in this matter, doctor?"

Veronica requested earnestly, making the doctors chuckle as she said, "It's okay. I can understand your feelings. I'll help you in this. But the question is, how will you check with the obstetrician, hiding everything from your husband?"

This question made a smirk appear on Veronica's beautiful lips as she said naughtily, "Leave that on me.."

Smilingly, the doctor nodded her head and gave her the details about one of the best obstetricians of the hospital and instructed few things to her..

As they were talking about stuffs, Reuben finally entered and said, "Uhmm.. Sorry, Ica.. Actually one of my foreign clients wanted to meet me immediately as they'll be leaving tomorrow only. That's why, it took me some time to delay the meeting for few hours."

"Oh! Babe.. Why don't you meet the clients now itself? Doctor said I'm absolutely okay other than having a little bit of indigestion." Veronica said, holding his hand.

The doctor too nodded her head and confirmed, "Yes.. It's just some simple food poisoning. She'll be fine after having some medicines."

Reuben stared at the doctor for a second and stated averting his eyes back to his wife, "No.. I'm not leaving you alone. I'll drop you at Creation first and then only I'll go back to my office."

Veronica sighed and tried to persuade him by saying, "Bennie.. How about I call Louis to pick me up from here? Then it'll be convenient for both of us. What's say?"

Reuben thought for a while and said, "Okay fine. But you'll call me immediately if you feel your health is getting worse."

"Hmm… I know baby. You just go now. I'll take the prescription for the doctor and pay the bill to the receptionist till Louis arrives here." Veronica said.

Reuben sighed a little and kissed her forehead lovingly as he said, "I'm leaving then. Take care."

"Hmm.. Bye.. Drive safe." Veronica said, giving him a beautiful smile.

Reuben then turned towards the doctor and gave her a short nod before leaving for his office, making Veronica heave a big breath of relief..

"I'm going to meet the obstetrician then. Thanks for your help, doctor.." Veronica said genuinely.

"No problem." The doctor smiled back at her.

Love-Paradise…

It was already evening and Reuben was about to arrive home at any moment..

In afternoon, Veronica called Reuben saying that she was feeling a little low and wanna take some rest. So she came back home alone much to Reuben's disappointment.

But Veronica somehow managed him and now she was preparing for the surprise with a content smile on her face.

After few minutes, she finally looked at all the decoration with emotional eyes while her left hand involuntarily started caressing her tummy as she whispered in a low voice, "What do you think, baby? Will your dad love the decoration?

Oops! Why am even I asking this? I'm sure he'll be so over the top of the moon, that he'll not even care about the decorations and will start jumping like a kid. Hehehe.."

A smile was not ready to leave her face as she started getting ready for tonight, remembering the special moment when the obstetrician confirmed that she was indeed pregnant.

Oh! How she cried like a small baby due to immense happiness!

Chuckling at her thoughts, she put on the lipsticks and checked herself once again on the mirror when she finally heard the sound of a honking car… precisely her husband's car..

With a big grin on her face, she said, "Come on baby.. It's time to hide now.."

Reuben was totally worried about Veronica after her phone call in afternoon. But he couldn't able to come as the client meeting was important for his new project..

Although he didn't give even a damn to this but Veronica's persuasion made him agree. But he still couldn't help himself from worrying over her health..

So he finished all of his work as soon as possible and came back home earlier than before.

With long steps, he climbed up the stairs and rushed towards his bedroom only to find it completely vacant.

However, what caught his eyes was the whole room decorated with beautiful balloons of different colours.

A frown appeared on his face, looking at the decorations as he walked over there to inspect them with his keen eyes..

His eyes then fell on the box that was placed on their bed, wrapped in a golden wrapper which made him furrow his eyebrows in puzzlement.

"Ica… Babe… Where are you?" Reuben called for his wife but didn't get any response from her side.

On the other hand, Veronica was trying her best to not make any kind of noise from the walk-in closet as she peeked through the door to witness her husband's every single reaction..

Not getting any trace of her, Reuben finally decided to open the box.

Taking a deep breath, he untied the ribbon and opened the cover of the box, only to notice it filled with lots of pompom.

A small chuckle escaped from his lips, seeing his wife's craziness. Shaking his head, he took out all of those pompoms and peered inside the box, only to see something very unexpected..

There was a pair of baby shoes with a card and envelope inside it..

With a deep frown on his face, Reuben took out those small baby shoes and inspected it carefully.

"Why did Ica buy these shoes? Is this for Willa or Lucy?" Shrugging his shoulder at his own question, he thought to see what was inside the envelope.

The card had a picture of a cute cradle while the four side of the card was covered with footprints of a small baby.

Still with confusion laced on his face, Reuben opened the card to read the content inside it, only to get the biggest surprise of his life…

An equation was made on the middle page of the card with big bold letters which said…

1+1 = 3
