(March 27th)

Catalaiya's pov:

Today Nayvee and I decided to go to the mall during our lunch break to do some shopping. I was 25 weeks pregnant and my belly popped out pretty quick, none of my clothes fits me anymore.

This morning when I walked into my office's building, everyone did a double-take when they saw my belly. All these days, I wore a coat and no one noticed that I was pregnant. Today I wore a long fitted dress and I couldn't hide it.

Also, I don't throw up that much now. Last week when I was in my 25th week, I felt the baby moved for the first time.

It was overwhelming.

Once it was noon, Nayvee and I made our way downstairs. Again, a lot of heads turned toward me. I even got a few congratulations on my way out and I thanked them.

We took Nayvee's car to the mall.

When we reached, we walked into the first shop for maternity clothes. I bought a few dresses, a few leggings and some comfy shoes before we walked out. Nayvee went to buy some heels and I walk outside doing some window shopping while I waited for her.

My phone rang and I reached out to take it out of my handbag. I looked at the screen and it was Aziel.

"Hey husband," I greeted him.

He chuckled, "Hey Love."

"What's up?"

"Well I just finished my meeting and I'm heading home. How's your shopping going?" He asked.

"So far so good. I have a few shopping bags in my hand and right now I'm window shopping while Nayvee is trying some heels." I replied.

"That's good... but did you eat?" He inquired.

Oops...

"Not yet..." I trailed off.

I heard him sigh.

"You do remember you have to take your medicines on time, right? And right now... you are fifteen minutes late." He pointed out.

"I know, we'll go eat when Nayvee's done," I reassured him.

"Ok, well I'm going home. See you later. I love you." He said.

"See you later. Love you too."

We both hang up and I continued my window shopping. A few minutes later, Nayvee joined me and we both went to the food court where we had our lunch. I took my vitamins pills, drank some freshly pressed juice and we went back to shopping.

I ended up in a baby store and I looked after a few neutral coloured clothes, pacifiers and socks. Aziel and I decided that we won't have a baby gender reveal as we want to wait till she or he is born, to know. But we will have a baby shower.

Even the nursery will be a neutral colour.

"These are so tiny," Nayvee said mesmerised as she picked up some blue socks. She put it in her palm and pouted.

"Having baby fever?" I asked her and she nodded.

"How can you not..."

We stepped out of the store and walked to the parking lot. She drove back to our office and on my way there, I texted Alfred to come to pick me up. Since he was already by the fish store buying some fish food, he reached the office before we did.

"I'll see you tomorrow," Nayvee said and I nodded.

I walked to Alfred and he helped me with the shopping bags. I sat down and he drove us home.

When we reached, I grabbed the bags and made my way upstairs. Thalia was not around, so I guessed she was in the guest house. I walked into our bedroom and my eyes landed on Aziel's naked back as he slept on his stomach, his both arms up, under his pillows.

I quietly walked to the closet, dropped all the bags, picked up a comfortable outfit before making my way to the bathroom to take a shower.

Once I was done, I made my way to the bed on Aziel's side. The blanket was on his butt, showing the upper sem of his grey sweatpants. We were kinda matching.

I kneel on the bed and straddle his back.

After having lunch with Thalia, I sat down and completed a few works on my laptop. It took me a few hours but I did it. When I was done, I went to the bed to rest my eyes and my body.

I did fall asleep but I woke up when I heard the bathroom door open. I kept my eyes closed when suddenly I felt pressure on my butt.

"Are you sleeping?" I heard a soft voice ask.

"Hmm..."

One thing that I noticed with her, she hates it when I 'hmm' at her.

"I need a clear answer please." She added.

"Hmm..."

"Babe." She whined.

"Hmm..."

I feel her palm on my back running up and down. It made me shiver when she rub my sides, slowly with her fingertips.

"Husband, I need your attention and affection." She stated.

I chuckled, "You do?"

I turn around and she lifted herself for a few seconds before she straddle my waist again. I kept my hand on her hips, smiling at her.

"I do," she stated.

I lightly pull her onto me and she leaned to peck my lips continuously a couple of times. I reached under her shirt to rub her lower back and she let out a few moans before leaning her head under my neck.

"That feels good." She commented.

I kissed the top of her head.

I moved one of my hands and rubbed her belly, "How did our little munchkin do today?"

"Like a little angel," she answered.

As I rubbed her belly, I felt our little munchkin moved making me smiled.

"And how are you feeling?" I asked.

"A little tired from the shopping but I'm good... I'm a little hungry too." She admitted.

"What do you wanna eat?" I inquired.

"Hmm... Avocado chicken salad." She answered.

"I'll ask Thalia to make some," I said and she nodded. I reached over the table and grabbed my phone before texting Thalia. She replied an 'okay' and I put my phone back on the table, giving Catalaiya all the attention and affection she wanted.
