"Nathan," Henry called."What happened to you, Nathan?" Mrs. Aston asked."Nothing, Mom, about the operation___""You and Kimberly are just the same. You are both persistent. That's why you're suited for each other." Still trying to be okay, Mrs. Aston laughed again while Henry smirked."Ya, Mrs. Aston's right!" Henry chuckled."Henry!" Nathan scolded his best friend"Fine, I'll try that operation.""Really?!" Henry and Nathan chorus and she nods."I know that both of you will push me even if I say no. So I think I'll wait for the donor and agree, right?"On the other hand, Kimberly cried again as she listened to Doctor Rebecca.Honestly, she doesn't understand why she has become too sensitive lately."Kimberly, it's impossible for Nathan to find a donor in a day. Everything has to undergo a clear-cut examination and testing for match-making. We can't just remove it and put it right over your mother's kidney." The doctor explained."But Nathan can do it! I trust him!" She insists."I
Nathan went to every hospital his secretary gave regarding kidney transplants. His third try was at the Department of Kidney Transplant."Sir, I'm sorry, but we have rules here. Every recipient must undergo a medical evaluation, showing a record of a good candidate for transplant." The nurse in the information booth starts."She's a cancer patient. Here kindly take a look at this. It's some of her records." Nathan explains."Well then, Sir, we'll place her on the transplant program's waiting list, evaluate and probably receive a kidney from a deceased donor.""How long will it take?""She'll have to wait depending on many things, but it is primarily determined by the degree of matching between her and the donor. Some wait several years for a good match, while others get matched within a few months." The nurse explains."She's dying. We need it as soon as possible. I'm willing to pay!""I'm sorry, Sir, but it's impossible. Unless she has a family member, a spouse, parents, or siblings
"Goodnight, honey." Nathan kisses her forehead as Kimberly presses herself on his broad chest."Sleepy?" She asked."A bit, you?""Not yet.""Do you want me to get you a glass of milk?" He bends his head to look at her."No. But, can we?" She speaks a bit shyly."What?" Nathan already caught what she meant.He wants to laugh, thinking she's been naughty these past few days. But his more excited to hear her following words."Can you kiss me goodnight?!" She blushes as she answers."But I already did." He said, grinning."Hmpf... I want it on my lips!" She pouts.Nathan couldn't help but smile widely and roll his body over her."Why suddenly you are so sweet?!" He continued grinning while their faces were an inch away from each other."I want a kiss." But even she continued pouting."Fine then, your wish is my command, honey." He said, taking possession of her lips and kissing her long and passionately.Kimberly surrounds her arms his neck and holds his hair, which makes their kisses in
Trivia: Goulash is a traditional Hungarian food; it is a soup or stew of meat, noodles, and vegetables, especially potatoes, seasoned with paprika and other spices.Chapter 31 – GoulashKimberly and Nathan are back to back with each other silently as Andy leaves. Until he stood and left without a word, she followed him quietly. She had no strength to speak, shocked to see him violently act like their first meeting. He walks back upstairs and straight to their room. He picked up a towel and went inside the bathroom while she remained sitting down on the bed, a bit scared."Damn it!" Nathan cussed and punched the wall so hard that he got bruises."Why it was so easy for me to get affected whenever it came to her feelings!" He was so desperate, punching the wall over and over again.After a few minutes, he left the bathroom with a towel around his waist, dried himself, and wore his clothes.Kimberly was still quiet. She still had no idea how to react. Nathan's actions were like their fir
Meanwhile, Kimberly was now worried. She thought that Nathan was still mad about what had happened earlier. He didn't text or call back even though she did it many times. At the same time, Doctor Henry didn't want to show her test result yesterday or tell her if she could be a donor. Thinking about everything outside the ICU, her tears fell again; she couldn't help it! She's too sensitive and emotional for so many reasons."Kimberly." She felt a hand on her shoulder."Doctor Henry?""You're crying again. Stop it, okay? It's not good for your health and for your____.""Nathan is mad at me." She interrupts louder."Let's go to my office." Henry helped her stand, thinking they might catch people's attention since she was crying heavily."Tell me what happens?""They fought early this morning." She sniffed."Fight?""Yes! Nathan and Andy were hitting each other when I went to the office." She continued with another sniff."Okay." Henry just said, waiting for her to move on with the story.
"Yo! Nathan?" Henry had to wave one hand in front of Nathan's face to get attention."She's what?!" He asked, still in a state of shock."Pregnant! As in, you're going to be a father!""Really?! I'm going to be a father!?" Nathan's eyes remain to widen."How many times will I have to repeat it?" While Henry frowns."SHE'S PREGNANT!! I'M GONNA' BE A FATHER!?!" He shouted and stood in excitement."I can't believe this!!! She's pregnant; perhaps that's why she acts strange lately." He continued enthusiastically."Like I was expecting. Your reaction is remarkable!" Henry smirked."Wait!?!!" Nathan suddenly froze."What???" Henry puzzle."We..... we.... just... do....it... last... night...." Nathan hesitantly said in a soft voice."Is it safe?!?" He added, feeling awkward that Henry laughed."It's normal; the baby was not yet fully developed, even if it was. It's fine as long as you're careful!" Henry paused and winced at him."F#ck! I should not be the one telling you this!" He cussed, an
It was already two o'clock in the morning, and yet Nathan and Kimberly were awake laughing."Hey, stop it!" Nathan hissed."Your reaction is so funny!" Kimberly laughed harder."I'm just worried." He whispers. She moved closer and pinched both of his cheeks."Honey, you are the cutest.""I told you I'm not cute! I'm gorgeous!" He corrected. She smirks and puts her arms around his shoulder."I'm just three weeks pregnant, so it's still okay that we got body contact___.""Is that what the book told you?!" This time Nathan smirked back as he saw her blush."What? How____" But before she could continue, Nathan's lips were already on her. His kisses are sweet and gentle while cupping her neck. They were kissing passionately like always when suddenly...Crammmmmmpppppppppp...(Stomach cramps effect)"What's that?!!?" Nathan stops and looks at her puzzle."Honey?!?" He repeats."I'm hungry." She cried softly, making him laugh. She slapped his shoulder and stood."Where are you going?" He gent
Nathan and Kimberly had a perfect, memorable official date; they walked around the mall, holding each other sweetly."Honey! I want ice cream!" she exclaims."It's frosty... our baby might get cold!" he refuses."Eeeeehhhh, I want it!" she glares sweetly."Fine, but just one cone... okay!" Nathan had no other choice since he was a slave, remember? Kimberly grinned triumphantly as he returned with a cone of Chocó vanilla ice cream."How about you?" she asked, as he was holding only one cone."Will just share..." he smiled."You'll get sleepy...""I don't care! I want to taste what my wife and child eat!" he demands."How sweet of you, honey...""Let's go shopping?""Shopping?!?""You need maternity clothes, as the book said...""Why are you reading that?" she retorts after licking the ice cream."I also need to know how to take care of my pregnant wife and our baby, of course!" he answers, licking the ice cream."But I'm just three weeks pregnant; it wasn't obvious.""Well, we might ge
