The water around her was warm and the slight movement made her feel as if she was floating in a calm ocean. Her muscle began to relax and it was not as sore as it was a while ago. Gradually, Edith found herself drowsy again.

She leaned on the sturdy chest behind her and snuggled to get into a comfortable position.

"Are you sleepy again?"

Hearing the question, Edith snapped her eyes to look at Neil. "Isn't it because of you?"

The smile on his face widened. Neil began to put some pressure around her waist area, massaging her. "Sorry. You know well that I couldn't restrain myself when you take the initiative." His throat rolled and his body heated up as he recalled the way wife would pant his name when they became one.

Noticing that the man had hugged her tighter, Edith chose to stay still lest she would accidentally make him excited. Once she saw that his breathing had calm down, Edith pulled away and stared at his face.

Neil tilted his head sideways when Edith continued to watch him without saying anything. "What is it?"

"Nothing," Edith shook her head. "I just wanted to take a look at your face." Her hands cupped at his face and Edith tugged at the corner of his lips, making him smile. "Really good looking," she muttered before pressing her lips against his briefly.

Seeing the way she acted, Neil was suddenly reminded of her drunken state. Once upon a time, she had done the same thing towards him and he began to take notice of everything that she had done around him. He then realized that he was attracted to her.

Of course, Neil had never mentioned this incident to her.

"Neil?"

"Hmm..."

"Darling?"

Neil laughed and pulled her into his embrace. "What?"

"Hubby... do you want a baby?"

Hearing her question, Neil was stunned and he was unable to react. He stared back at his wife and wondered if he had perhaps imagined things.

"You don't want it?" Edith raised a hand and started to poke a finger at his chest. 

"Why did you suddenly ask about this?" He narrowed his eyes and a thought suddenly came to his mind. "Are you pregnant?"

Her face turned red. Edith bit at her lips and lowered her gaze. "Of course not. But, we're married. Sooner or later, people are going to ask about a child," Edith said. "I just wanted to know your opinion about this."

The two of them had always use a safety measure whenever they were intimate, except for that one time when she had run to Z Town and Neil had come over to find her. 

After that… the two of them were in a hurry to return to the city. It was only a few days ago that Edith seemed to remember that she had not taken any pills afterward. There are still chances that she might get pregnant from that time.

Now that they are married, Edith wanted to know what he thinks about having a child. If something happened, later on, she would be prepare and would know what to do.

"Moreover… when we're in Z City, we did not use that." Her voice gradually turned quiet.

There was a slight fluctuation in his eyes when Neil heard his wife mentioned that night and he knew what Edith was concerned about.

When he thought of what happened in Z Town, Neil thought that he was a bad guy. 

He was a little angry that Edith had run around without telling him where she had gone to. Neil was worried that this girl might someday choose to leave his side. That night, he purposely did not use protection, selfishly wishing that their union would give them a child. 

Perhaps with a child between them, Edith would not leave and s continue to stay by his side.

It was only after that Neil realized how cruel he was, to decide something without consulting her opinion. Afterward, he was busy with a few matters that he had forgotten about it. When the matter arose in his mind again, Neil thought that it was a little too awkward for him to bring up that matter again. In the end, he chose not to speak a thing.

"Then, what about you?" Neil stretched his hand to touch her face. "Do you want a baby? If we have a child from that night, will you choose to keep it?"

There was a long silence between then and Neil thought that his heart was a little chaotic. His eyes were looking into hers, but he could not figure out what was in her mind.

Her lips curled into a faint smile. "Of course I want it. If it's your baby of course I want it."

Neil was stunned upon hearing her words. 

"But what about you?" She was the first to ask this question, but Neil had not said his opinion, and Edith was anxious to know what he thought of having a child. "If there is something in my stomach, do you want me to keep it?"

Edith has been helping Mrs. Li to babysit a few children when she was younger and found out that she loved being surrounded by kids. It was one of the reasons she had chosen to work as a kindergarten teacher.

She grew up with only her grandfather by her side. Edith thought that when the time came, she wanted to have a family and being surrounded by many kids. Growing up alone without anyone was too lonely.

"Of course, I would love you to keep it." He leaned forward and kissed the top of her head. "The important thing is what you think of it. Having a baby… it will be tougher on you."

The smile on her face widened and suddenly, Edith thought that she was a little silly. There were still a few days for them to figure out whether there was something in her stomach, but just the thought of them having a baby made her a little excited.

"If there's a baby, then let's keep it," Neil said. "But if nothing happened, let's wait for a while before we try again, alright?"

Edith looked at him, puzzled. "Why?"

Neil let out a chuckle. "We haven't been together for a long time. I still wanted to be with just you a little longer."

"Just me?" There was a teasing look on her face. "Darling, did you forget about Hazel?"

Neil heaved a sigh. "It was bad enough that I had to fight for your affection with Hazel. Where would I be if we have a child early?"

Edith stared at the man in front of her, dumbfounded. After a while, a heartily laugh burst out. 

"If we have a baby, wouldn't your attention be on the child?" Neil continued. "I still wanted my wife to spoil me for a long time." 

"Darling, you're adorable." Edith leaned forward and pecked at his lips a few times. Soon, the kiss turned into long, heated kisses.

Edith smiled when they parted again. "How do you want me to spoil you?"
