They were surprised.
It had always been great every time she came for her check-up. The doctor had never spoken to her privately. Why…
Cordelia squeezed Zephyr's hand nervously.
"Hubby, did something happen?"
"No, definitely not!" He was actually nervous too.
Although he always teased his son, he was his child. A life that he made.
He tried to cheer up and smiled at Cordelia. He held her hand and took her to the doctor's office.
Her exclusive doctor was a kind, local lady. She was an expert in obstetrics and gynecology.
She was quite experienced.
She showed a kind smile as she watched them walk in.
"This is your report."
Cordelia looked at it anxiously.
The report showed that everything was good. So why did the doctor get them here?
The doctor looked at Zephyr with a cryptic look.
"No need to worry. You and your child are great. It's just that there's something that you'll need to watch out for. I must remind you again, sir."
He opened up his ears and listened attentively.
The doctor said slowly. "She's due soon and can't be doing intense exercise… Sir, do you understand me?"
Zephyr was stunned. Cordelia, who was next to him, was flushed.
The doctor proceeded to explain the report with a serious face. She was professional. "These indicate that it's unstable… At this stage, the fetus' head is slowly moving down toward the pelvis. If the exercise is too frequent, it'll affect the fetus.
"There's nothing that she can do now. Please be patient, sir. After she has given birth and recuperated, the two of you can proceed with your love life slowly…"
Cordelia was flushing, and her heart was pounding. She got up quickly and ran away.
Zephyr even explained to the doctor before going after her, "I've been soft. How is it possible that—"
Cordelia returned suddenly and pulled him away. "Are you done?"
