My Little Sunshine

Chapter 236: The Jealous Parent

"Adam?" She called out to him softly only to get no response in return. She trailed her hands to where his face was, her fingers finding their way through the locks of his hair. Grabbing his face in her palms, she forced him to look up at her. The corners of her lips curled upwards when her hazel eyes made contact with his gray ones. 

"I never knew my husband can even be a cry baby." Stella teased him as her fingers traced the corners of his eyes which were red and filled with tears upto the brim. A couple of tears had somehow found their way out and were running down his cheeks. Each time he blinked, a few more would run down as new ones took their place. 

Using her thumb, she wiped his cheeks before cupping his face in between her small palms. "Are you really this much happy?" She questioned him only to get a firm nod in response. He refused to say a single word from his mouth. He knew he would just end up shedding more of these droplets of warm, salty water if he opened his mouth. And in no way he wanted to seem weak before his beloved wife, especially when she was pregnant. 

"Hey, it's okay to cry at times." She patted the top of his head while her other palm continued to hold his face in place. As if her words were what he was waiting for, he leaned his forehead against her bare stomach and continued to silently cry, shedding his tears. 

He was blaming his own self for leaving her all on her own in this condition. He was on a guilt trip, accusing himself for leaving his baby and his wife all alone during the time they needed him the most. His continued to silently sob against her stomach as he cursed himself internally. 

Stella shook her head at her big baby. Even though they haven't been together for long now, but she knew him too well to tell what was going on in his thick skull. She continued to run her fingers through the silky locks of his finger and massage his scalp as she tried to think of a way to make his mood better. 

After a while, her eyes glowed in excitement as a brilliant idea popped in her mind. "Don't you want to know the gender of the baby?" She questioned him as she tapped on top of his head a couple of times to get his attention. 

"I am not as dumb as you think. The baby is too young to tell about the gender." He replied to her, barely looking up from her stomach. "But I have a hunch that the baby will definitely be my little princess." He murmured softly. 

"Yeah, yeah! So that she can have all of your undivided attention just like she is now." She narrowed her eyes and glared at the top of his head when she saw him paying no attention to her. 

"No one can take your place in my life, not even our little princess." Adam finally looked up at her, a frown marring his forehead. But his expressions were a bit better than before as his eyes were a little less red. 

Stella smiled inwardly when she saw that her plan was working and his attention was diverted. Putting on a scowl on her face, she continued. "I can see that very much clear." She scoffed as gave an eye roll. 

"You know what? I hope that 'both' of our babies turn out to be boys, so that I can dote on them as much as I want and you can be the jealous parent." She humphed as she shifted her gaze away from him. 

Adam glared at her and continued to argue. "Well, you can humph all you want when both of our babies will turn out to be girls." He gave her a proud smirk which soon disappeared from his face as he pondered over his own words. 

"You said both of our babies?" He questioned her. "Are you planning to have just two children?" He frowned as he got up and propped up his upper body on his elbow. The thought of having only two little versions of her, saddened him for some reason. 

"Oh! I think I forget to mention that I am pregnant with twins." Stella shrugged her shoulders and answered him with a blank face. Looking at his baffled expressions, she was having a hard time in controlling the twitching corners of her lips. 

"Did you just say that you are pregnant with twins?" Adam raised his eyebrows as he questioned her. 

Stella hummed and bobbled her head up and down before giving him a faint smile. Seeing her response, he shifted his eyes to her stomach where they lingered over for some time, before shifting back to her face. 

"We are going to have twins." He repeated the same sentence again and again as the corners of his lips tugged upwards. He shifted his gaze back to her exposed stomach and peppered feather like kisses all over her stomach. 

"Damn! How did I get so lucky?" He finally exclaimed in joy after he was down showering kisses over her belly. 

"Because you have me." He heard her voice which was brimming with pride. 

"I am the one who did all the hard work." He spoke up, furrowing his eyebrows as he crawled up on her body using his elbows and only stopped once his face was right before hers. "All you did was enjoy as you moaned my name, asking me to move faster and faster." He added as he fixed her sweatshirt and pulled the duvet up to cover their bodies.

"Don't have a come back now?" He smirked while looking at her flushed face. "Aren't you going to give me response?" He murmured softly against her skin as he peppered down kisses along her jaw, making her gasp at their sudden intimacy. 

"Adam." Her words trailed off as he began to nibble on her earlobe. 

He hummed sensually next to her ear, asking her to continue. But Stella was in no place to carry on, she didn't even have a clue what she was going to say to him next. Why did it only required a single touch from him to make her lose her mind. One touch from him and all of her senses would stop working, especially her mind. 

His lips eventually found hers and he placed a lingering kiss over them. "Thank you so much, my love." He muttered against her rosy lips which were still a bit swollen. 

"And I am sorry that you and my babies had to be on your own this past month. I promise that I will always stand like a wall before you guys. I won't let anything happen to any of you. And I don't really care about the gender of our babies, I will shower them with the same affection and love." He placed a couple of light kisses on her lips. 

He shifted their bodies such that she was now lying on top of him. "And even if they cannot take the place that their mother has in my heart and life." He pressed a lingering kiss on top of her head. "Rest well, my baby girl." He muttered softly above her head as he wrapped his arms around her figure.
