"Are you not happy? I know this is sudden but at the end of the day, you have to accept it. At least, try to accept that fact like what I am doing now. Eventually we will" Brina said looking at him.

Louis stood there, looking at her, more like scrutinizing her face.

He knew that she was hurt because of his attitude. However, he still needs time.

This is very, very sudden and everything is a mess right now. Unlike his wife, he has no affinity towards kids.

He is not finding excuses because he knows very well that Brina is facing everything he is undergoing as well.

In fact, more than that.

She is fighting her trauma of losing someone she loves. Especially kids, that too her own kid.

He has to accept that she is a strong woman…

She sorts out the things faster than him and comes to a decision before sticking to it. All she needs is time..

However, he is different.

He is more afraid that this would hurt Brina.

If something bad happens now, she would fall into an never ending deep abyss of guilt and pain. He is more worried about her.

After all, they are in a waging war now.

And for him nothing is more important than his wife. Not even the baby….

"Talk something Louis. At least, let me know if you want to talk about this or not" Brina said, her voice cracked.

"If you want to talk, stay here or walk out of our bedroom door. I will understand that you still need time and I will not bring this topic until you talk about this yourself" Brins said, averting her eyes to look out through the window.

Tears could be seen brimming in her eyes.

Meanwhile, Louis didn't walk out of their bedroom door nor he stayed back. He opened the balcony door and went out.

Technically, he is in their bedroom itself but at the same time he didn't stay to talk with her. He found himself a third option.

Like always!!

"This man!!" Brina sighed in frustration and huffed.

'Don't worry baby. Daddy just needs time and when he comes back to us let us give him a cold shoulder' Brina thought as she rubbed her stomach and lied down.

….

Meanwhile…

Louis wiped away his sweat.

"God!! It's so close. Thank God this idea blinked in my messed up mind" Louis said to himself as he heavily slumped on the couch with his fingers pinching his nose bridge in helplessness.

'Why should she be so angry and persistent? Are these her pregnancy mood swings?!' he thought, terrified already.

He has to be the scapegoat to her unstable emotions and overwhelming mood swings.

It is not that he felt it was a problem, but he is afraid that he would be able to take good care of her and admit all these chaos.

Should I ask her sometime to get accustomed to this?

More than anyone, he would be the one to suffer more.

He should be extremely gentle to her, control himself every time. He is sure he cannot do that. As he got addicted to this, he could never control itself like before. Even a slightest seduction will be enough to shred all his control..

With this, he should also be extra careful because they are in the most fragile situation now.

Most delicate and sensitive situation which could impact his wife very badly in something terrible happen.

He couldn't stop thinking pessimistic. He knows, his thoughts would change nothing and no matter how much time he takes to answer her and get accustomed to this, the result will be the same.

He has to accept everything and protect both his wife and their baby. He is just scared that he couldn't bring himself to do so.

"I badly need someone to talk to" Louis sighed and after thinking for some time, he made a call to Harry, his savior when it comes to Brina and her moods.

"Dude, congrats. I got the news. I will be the godfather, okay? I am even getting a cradle ready and also buying some super cool dresses for my Godbaby" Harry's cheerful voice sounded from the other side.

When Rhianna told him about Brina's pregnancy he was totally elated. Yes, he is worried too but that is overshadowed by the little bundle of joy that would brighten all their lives even more.

'He is faster than my own wife' Louis thought when he listened to Harry's cheerful voice.

'If nothing would have happened now, I would be on the bed playing around with my wife. Life has been so good and thrilling this month' Louis thought and sighed when he felt his little brother getting excited just from the thought.

"Louis, why aren't you talking anything?" Harry asked.

"Brina is angry at me," Louis said.

"For knocking her out?" Harry laughed.

"No, for not talking about this" Louis answered.

"Aren't you happy?" Harry questioned.

"Honestly, I don't know, man. I mean, there are many dangers surrounding her now! I am worried about her and my mind is in a whole mess" Louis sighed as he pinched her space between his eyebrows.

"You are thinking about the future and hurting her foolishly right now. If you are with her, showing your support and giving your warmth, she will be ready to face anything, literally anything Louis. If you evade the topic and play around the bushes, ultimately you will be the one hurting her"

"You will be the one that hurt her most!!" he deadpanned.

Harry couldn't help but get angry. He understood Louis's condition but he was selfish. For him, his sister is the main priority.

"Just remember that she would be able to face anything but not the pain that is afflicted by her lover ones, especially you my friend, the only person she loves more than herself" Harry tried to explain.

"You are dwelling on the 'what if' scenarios and ruining the most valuable memories. Tell me what will you gain by pushing the reality away? At the end you have to accept it no matter what. By that time you would have hurt her"
