Chapter 220: Anything For Her
"Are you comfortable?" Tony asked gently wiping the perspiration off her face.
After a long time, he had the opportunity to be alone with her and he used it to his heart’s content. He had some misgivings in his heart about her and after seeing her love-filled glance the whole time, his heart was light.
"I am..." Marcella let out a deep breath. Her eyebrows were relaxed and her entire body was relaxed as she was content. "Not the baby though..." she rubbed her belly.
Tony rolled to the side and had a look at her belly. He could see the baby twisting and turning inside her.
"Does it hurt?" he asked. It looked like it would hurt. "Hey!" he scolded the baby. "Stay still. Don’t hurt your mother!"
Marcella could only chuckle. "We wouldn’t want him to stay still. Healthy babies should move around."
Tony was not impressed. He placed his hand over her belly right where the baby’s foot was. The baby didn’t stop kicking. Maybe he felt his father, he kicked some more.
Marcella observed Tony. He pressed her belly trying to "contain" the already contained baby. After a while, he gave up.
"He’s going to be a troublesome one," he said.
Marcella rolled to her side with a grunt. Tony patted her back. "Are you okay?" he asked seeing the frown line between her eyes.
"I’m feeling..." she took in a deep breath. "The doctors advised me to sleep on my side. It does not feel good when I lie on my back..."
Tony gently rubbed her chest until she composed herself.
