Chapter 95 MISSING MOM
1428words
This is the third brush that I have broke in two days, I look at the brush that has just landed near my husband's foot, he stood straight with his handsome masculine figure under a black suit that makes him ridiculously handsome while I look at myself in the mirror, a huge belly, swollen breasts, a big face, fat arms, and thighs, it looks like I am ready to wrestle with someone.
Arghhh... I am so ugly now.
"Pump..." My husband begins and I glare at him as he soon changes his way of calling me wisely, "Tessy. What is wrong, dear... You have become quite furious these days." He says hesitantly as he takes small firm steps toward me.
"MOM."
I exhale sadly, yes, it's been more than 7 months that I haven't seen my mother, and also not able to tell her the great news of my pregnancy. Ann rejects my plea to go to visit my parent's home and now I am mad, furiously mad.
I want to break everything in this mansion.
"I'll talk to Ann," Andrew says to comfort me, and taking an opportunity, he hugs me lightly. These days I am like a wild cat I don't even allow him to touch me at all.
First of all, the child in my belly troubles me a lot, I couldn't sleep properly since it started moving. I still remember the first kick of my baby, and I was so excited to tell it to my husband but he as usual gave me a very cold response making me disappointed.
He doesn't like when I get excited about the child or talk about it. He always tries his best to ignore the topic that is related to our child. So irresponsible person.
But with Ann, it was different when I told Ann about the child's kick she got so excited that she didn't leave for the work until she felt the child's movement in my belly. I feel so blessed to have Ann. She would be an adorable aunt I am hell sure of it.
I wish our child will bring immense happiness to Ann's life.
"No, you won't... You always say things to comfort me but you never really do anything for me." I push him away angrily and then yell.
"God, Tessy... Calm down... I will talk to her, I promise... Have some patience." He says completely pissed by my loud behavior but I don't care as I stand up furiously, "Patience... Patience..." And then I start throwing everything down from the dresser and he looks at me dumbfounded.
Sighing helplessly he leaves the room while I start sobbing pathetically while remembering my mother. My emotions feel like a roller coaster these days and I really want to see my mother.

"More..." I give Miss Celine my bowl to fill more ice cream in it and instead of taking the bowl, she looks at me hesitantly.
"Miss... More ice cream would be harmful to your health... The weather is already so cold." She begins saying her lecture and I stopped her immediately, "I want more ice cream." I demanded and she shake her head after a moment of hesitation.
BOOM
I break the bowl on the floor and then walk back to my room while fussing in anger.
What a pathetic state, I am not even allowed to calm my burning heart with some ice cream.
Sigh...
****
At night, I sneak out of my room and go down to the kitchen to bring some ice cream but when I pull the fridge door I realize that it has been locked.
F**k
I curse and then kick the door angrily, I am craving ice cream.
Alas, when I feel tired of kicking and cursing, with a sad and heavy heart I walk back to my room.
I sit on the bed, my husband sleeping peacefully beside me, and then suddenly I burst into tears, I cry, and cry.
WU ... WU ... WU ...
"Tessy?" I hear my husband's hoarse voice and look down at him when he notices my crying face, he immediately sits up and then touches my face, "You're missing Mom?" He asks, his eyes looking at me worriedly and I shake my head while crying more sadly.
"No... Ice cream... I want ice cream." I tell him, sobbing.
He looks at me stunned for a moment and then hugs me gently as he starts to rub my back and starts to coax me in his arms, "It's just an ice cream, Tessy... I will bring you." He says and then moves to get up but I stop him as I inform him, "The fridge is locked."
He looks down at me with a raised brow, "Locked?" He asks in disbelief and I nod my head in response.
He takes a long sigh and then leaning back he pulls me into his lap.
"I know these days have been tough on you." He breathes and all my anger and bitterness suddenly go away as I look up at his face which is tense and filled with guilt.
"It isn't your fault, hubby." I sniff my tears and then touch his cheek. "I am just being over-emotional these days, hubby. I am sorry, I am troubling you a lot these days." I tell him guiltily.
He holds my hand and then kisses my knuckles, "No, I am sorry, Tessy. I am also not being a good and understanding husband. I know, I have always disappointed you."
"No, hubby. You are the best." I tell him to cheer him up and then kiss his chin.
He looks down at me lovingly and then kisses me softly on my lips, caressing me with his tongue as soon I completely forget about all my complaints and we both get immersed in each other.

The next day, I was sleeping soundly when my husband woke me up with a light shake on my arm. "Tessy..."
I open my blur eyes and then look at him, his eyes shine in excitement as he holds up a large bucket of ice cream in front of me.
"Here... Get up and eat this."
I look at him stunned and then sit up immediately. "Ice cream?" I gasp in disbelief.
I take the bucket from his hand and then the spoon. I start eating heartily, He has brought my favorite one, mint chocolate chip.
I eat a spoon full of ice cream and it drops on my nightdress. Andrew chuckles and then taking a tissue, he wipes my dress and then my face.
"No one is going to take it. Eat slowly." He says and then kisses me affectionately.
"Thanks, hubby," I murmur happily.
Alas, my craving is full now thanks to my hubby.

A few days later while I was in my room, suddenly my husband calls me in the afternoon. I pick up his call with a smile, "Hubby."
"Pumpkin, get ready, we are going out." He says and I pause for a moment.
"Ann?" I ask, nervously.
"Don't worry about her," Andrew says assuring.
"But where?" I ask him again, hesitantly.
"It's a surprise, hurry, I'll be home in 20 minutes ok." Andrew says and then cuts the call, leaving me hanging.
"Arghh..." I groan unhappily and then start dressing up.
The sound of car honking comes and I walk down towards the main gate.
My husband stands under the sun looking bright and admirable, he opens the door for me and I sit inside.
He then sits in the driver seat and drive away. I look around excitedly and then ask him, "So, where are we going?"
"It's a surprise." He says and then to add my curiosity, he takes out a blindfold and then asks me to cover my eyes with it.
I reluctantly did what he say.
Each second gives me a shrill, as I wait for him to stop the car and finally he did.
I stay seated patiently waiting for him to come around. He then opens my door and gently unlocks my seatbelt. Holding my hand he then very carefully pulls me out of the car.
"Are we here?" I ask him.
"Yes." He replies and I could feel the joy in his voice.
Guiding me a few steps, he then pulls away my blindfold and finally I am able to see where he has brought me.
"Mom..." I gasp in disbelief and my eyes starts to fill with water feeling overwhelmed out of sudden.
