Chapter 679: I WILL DRINK FOR YOU
"What's wrong? Is there a sore spot? Do you want to see a doctor?" asked Pyro worriedly. He had forgotten all about his anger toward Jayden now. His voice was filled with anxiety, as he knelt before Apple. "You! Take her back to the room!" he ordered Jayden.
On the other hand, Jayden knew that it was just an act, but somehow he felt very anxious when he saw her like that. He was really scared that it wasn't a play and Apple was in real pain.
Jayden only felt relieved when Apple winked at him when he lifted her up in bridal style to carry her to her room and put her on the bed.
"Should we go to the hospital?" Pyro asked frantically because he didn't know what to do now. "Are you still in pain?" Pyro asked again anxiously.
"It's okay dad, I'm fine," Apple said in a weak voice, but of course Pyro didn't believe it. "Let's go to the hospital."
But, Apple actually grabbed Pyro's hand and made him sit on the edge of her bed. "I'm fine. It must be because of stress, you just kept screaming," said Apple.
Well, she felt guilty for making her father feel this way, but what else could she say? She had no other way to calm Pyro down, right?
After that, Apple smiled at Pyro and rubbed his hand gently, while saying very gently.
"Can you calm down? Because seeing you panic like that stresses me out too," said Apple. She then smiled at her father, who looked much calmer now. "Yes, I'm pregnant, I'm pregnant and the doctor has confirmed it. I'm sorry that things turned out like this," Apple said sincerely because she had absolutely no intention of telling Pyro in this way.
On the other hand, Pyro was seen sighing heavily and smiling at Apple with a furrowed brow. It seemed like he needed some time to sort out his emotions. After all, this was big news and he didn't want to seem so rash in responding, even though he just was like that a few minutes ago.
"Okay, dad is sorry for making you worry," said Pyro in a voice that sounded very tired. He then hugged Apple carefully because he didn't want to hurt his daughter. After that, he looked into his daughter's eyes very gently. "Are you really alright? Does your stomach still hurt?" he asked in a low voice. He then looked at Apple's flat stomach and sighed heavily again.
"I'm fine Dad, sorry for worrying you. I didn't mean to tell you this way," Apple said in a voice that felt very guilty. "I wanted to tell you later, but you seem to have found it already."
Pyro nodded. "Well, I can't say that it's your fault, since you didn't do anything wrong in this. I only found out by accident because that brat couldn't contain his excitement and told Misha this, I just happened to overhear the conversation between them," said Pyro explaining this problem to Apple.
Apple then nodded understandingly, until she finally realized what Pyro had just said. "What? Jayden said this to Misha?!"
Quickly, Apple turned her head to Jayden who was standing at the door, and looking at her with innocent eyes.
"You told MIsha about this?" asked Apple again, trying to confirm this and Jayden nodded.
"Yes, I told him earlier," he answered in a calm voice. He was too excited and wanted to share this happy news, but didn't know with whom. He felt that he would explode if he didn't share the happy news soon.
And the first person that came to Jayden's mind was Misha, therefore, he called the man and told him about the news.
Thus far, Jayden didn't see anything wrong with any of this, but from the way Apple stared at him, it looked like he had made a mistake and it looked like Jayden knew what made Apple feel that way.
"Don't worry, Misha won't say anything, he doesn't care too much about other people's business to tell this to anyone else," Jayden said and he hoped he was right, because just like himself, Misha was sometimes hard to understand.
Therefore, Jayden felt he was in trouble, now that he saw the expression shown by Apple.
"Am I in trouble?" Jayden asked in a timid voice. He then glanced at Pyro who gave him the same facial expression.
What was with this father and daughter duo? They both looked as if they wanted to kill him with just a look in their eyes. Jayden could feel it. These two were so amazing.
========================
After talking for some time with Apple, Pyro sat down next to Jayden. The girl was fast asleep in her room and Pyro hoped nothing would happen to her.
Based on what Pyro knew, the early stages of pregnancy were very vulnerable, because things could happen and it worried him, especially when Apple complained of pain.
"So? Is she asleep?" Jayden asked when Pyro was sitting beside him, he then poured the drink into the empty glass he had prepared for Pyro and then gave it to the man.
"You know I can't drink yet, right?" Pyro grumbled, looking at Jayden with a furrowed brow.
"Oh, right." Jayden smacked himself on the forehead when he said so and smirked. "Sorry, I forgot about that," he said lightly and then drank the drink himself. "Then I'll drink it for you."
Pyro could only shake his head in disbelief, even after all these years, this man hadn't changed at all.
Pyro then sighed and patted Jayden on the shoulder, saying in a begrudgingly tone. "Congratulations on Apple's pregnancy, I hope you will be a good father to your future children," he said quietly, his eyes fixed on the television that wasn't on.
"Child? You mean my children and Apple later, don't you?" Jayden corrected Pyro's words with a grin.
