Chapter 246 – Side Story – Kyle And Emily (A Good News)

“So you finally decided to have a baby. That’s great!” My doctor said while smiling at us.

“Yes. And we want to make sure if Emily is in good shape.” Kyle said.

The doctor nodded and guided me inside the clinic. I had an overall check-up and Kyle also wanted to see if there’s no problem with him so he also requested a full body checkup.

Kyle was holding my hand so I could calm down when the doctor arrived. I don’t know why I was nervous waiting for the result. I didn’t feel anything wrong with me but I still wanted to know if I could give Kyle a child.

“So how was it?” Kyle asked.

“Congratulations, your highness! The crown princess is three weeks pregnant!” She suddenly announced.

My eyes widened. I can’t believe what she just said.

“What? Are you sure? I’m on birth control, right? Why would I get pregnant?” I asked, confused.

“I think you missed your last shot. Remember, you didn’t come back on time. You were in your country that time.” She said.

I remember I went home because dad got sick and was not able to come back when I was supposed to get my shot. Then Kyle came and we did it a few times. I thought I wouldn’t get pregnant that easily since I was on birth control for the past three years.

I looked at Kyle and I could see that he was surprised as well. He didn’t speak and was quiet. I bit my lips and started to feel nervous. Is he changing his mind now?

Then to my surprise, he stood up with a wide smile on his face.

“Yes! I’m going to be a father! Is that for real? Are you sure? Did you check her carefully? Is she really pregnant?” He asked continuously.

“Your highness, calm down. We checked everything. Here’s the copy of the ultrasound.” She said while handing Kyle a white envelope.

I was just sitting on the chair and couldn’t imagine what was really happening. My heart was beating so fast. I feel happy. I moved my hand to my belly as if I could already feel the little one inside me. I didn’t realize tears were falling from my eyes.

Kyle rushed into me, worried.

“Hey, are you not happy?” He asked.

I shook my head and started sobbing.

“Then what is it? Tell me.”

“I-I’m happy. I’m really happy. I’m going to be a mom. We’re going to be parents!” I shouted while crying.

Kyle smiled, cupped my face, and slammed his lips into mine. I could feel his happiness with his kisses. When I stood up, he kneeled and pressed his ear into my belly. Then he kissed it and talked.

“Hey, I’m your dad! We’re very excited to meet you.” He said in a gentle voice.

I giggled and was smiling the whole time.

The doctor gave us instructions on how to take care of myself and the baby. She gave me lists of healthy food and handed me a prescription for my vitamins. 

Kyle never let go of my hand. When we got out of the clinic, the doctor followed us. It was a tradition in Flousia to announce that a royal baby is coming. So when we went out with the doctor, the royal guards were surprised but we could see the excitement on their faces.

Those people who protect us, especially Kyle, were with the royal family for years so they were really happy and excited that they will be protecting another member of the royal family.

The media were just outside the hospital, waiting for an announcement. They were all ears when the doctor started talking.

“We are happy to announce that the crown princess is currently three weeks pregnant. She is in good shape and healthy to carry the royal baby. We will make sure that she will be taken care of until the baby arrives. It was an honor for me to be her doctor.” She announced, proudly.

Then it was Kyle’s turn to speak.

“We honestly didn’t expect this but this is what we were anticipating. It was our dream to have a baby and now our prayers have been answered. Please continue to support the royal family on this joyous occasion.” He said, smiling at the people.

I didn’t speak and just listened to everything. I’m not in the mood to talk to people. I was so happy and I wanted to share the news with my friends.

Kyle held my hand and carefully guided me to the car. When we were inside, he showered me with kisses. He was so happy.

“Thank you! Thank you! I love you!” He exclaimed.

“Are you happy?” I asked.

“Of course! You made me the happiest man!” He said.

“I thought you were about to change your mind. You were quiet for a while.” I pouted.

“Because I was surprised. I didn’t expect it. I thought we’re going to wait for a few more months. I’m really happy, Emily.”

“Me too. I’m going to tell the girls.” I said, excitedly.

I picked up my phone and started texting them. But before I was able to send it, I got a message from them in our group chat.

‘Congratulations! You’re going to be a mom!” It was Peggy.

‘We’re happy for you and Kyle! Andrew said to tell Kyle our greeting. Congratulations!” Nina texted.

‘Take care of yourself and the baby. Congratulations! See you in two months!” It was a message from Sophie.

I waited for Alora’s message but she didn’t send any. I was pouting already when my phone rang, her name appeared on the screen so I smiled and answered it.

“I thought you’re not going to greet me.” I said.

“I was too lazy to type a message so I called instead. Congratulations! Luke was also happy and called me.” She said in her usual cold tone.

“Thank you. We didn’t expect it. We talked about it and just consulted our doctor. Then this happened. It was really good news to us.” I said, happily.

We chatted a little more before ending the call. Kyle and I will take the throne in two months so our friends will be here to attend the coronation. I always missed them even though we always talk through chat or video calls.

“Do you want something to eat? I mean, are you craving for something?” Kyle suddenly asked.

I chuckled but I was actually craving some ice cream.

“Ice Cream! I want a rocky road!” I exclaimed.

“Then ice cream it is. But not too much, okay?”

I nodded and gave him a quick kiss.
