Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Noah noticed Norah trying hard to stay composure looking at Zara and Ceon. He opened her curled fingers from the clench and held her hand, he asked in the lowest voice, seeing her slightly tremble, "What's wrong? Are you unwell?"

Zoe Davis was sitting next to Noah, she noticed him looking at aunty and peeked at Zara, "Aunty Norah, what happened? Are you feeling hot?" She asked with worry right after looking at Norah's precipitation.

As if she was holding her all power in the fist, Norah bolted into the powder room holding her mouth. She had really tried hard to let them celebrate Zara and Ceon's wedding news without worrying about her ill health but failed.

Noah quickly followed her and Zoe followed him blindly jumping down from the chair that caused everyone to worry about her. Zara, Zara's mother, Ceon's sister-in-law followed them quickly while other men patiently waited to peek at the unclosed powder room door.

Norah puked her guts out while Noah rubbed her back trying to soothe her. Zara quickly grabbed water for her to wash her mouth and drink. 

Noah's mother was damn worried so she couldn't wait for Norah to stabilize and asked, "What's wrong? Why is she suddenly ill?"

Noah kept his eyes on Norah to tend to her, "She was dehydrated and dizzy in the morning, dehydration was causing her nausea and now it might be severe. She didn't listen to me to go to the hospital."

Zara's voice followed after him, "Can't you take a good amount of liquid daily?"

Zoe couldn't tolerate the smell when Norah vomited, pressed her nose without leaving them when her mother asked her to leave, "Aunty Norah, you should go to the doctor." She genuinely cared remembering how her mother taught her.

Ceon who saw his sister-in-law's cue went near the powder and called, "Kitten, come here. Let the elders take care of aunty."

Zoe heard him and hopped to his arms when he stretched his hands to carry her back to the dining hall, "Uncle Ceon, take your car out, we will take Aunty Norah to hospital. She looks sooooo pale." She dragged the 'So' indicating Norah needs a doctor.

Whereas Zoe's mother asked in queasy, "Pardon me if I am taking the wrong topic, are you sure you aren't pregnant?"

It had left the minds of Noah and Norah because it's been more than a month they tried but saw no results. Due to Noah's continuous pester to remove the thought of pregnancy to let nature take the course, Norah too didn't think about it.

Norah promptly responded standing with Noah's support, "There is still a week for my periods." She meant to say, she was still in the ovulation period and they couldn't possibly get to know about pregnancy in a week.

Zara and her mother looked at each other and the former asked in curiosity, "Are you guys already planning a baby?"

Noah and Zara helped Norah back to the dining area while Noah responded to lighten the mood seeing all worried, "She wants a triplet after hearing Arrie having twins."

All chuckled hearing him while the pale Norah flushed stomping her husband. She already knows having twins and triplets isn't like going to the kitchen and cooking picking the right ingredients.

Whereas master Davies who didn't know about Aria's pregnancy exclaimed loudly, "Twins! The Morgan family is blessed. I wish triplets now, you guys should try harder."

All again chuckled hearing her while Mother Wood quickly instructed the housekeeper to send someone out to grab some things looking at Norah force Noah to stop taking her to hospital.

Norah ended up drinking only soup while all had dinner. Zoe who shifted between Noah and Norah kept feeding salad to Norah as the latter helplessly ate hoping she wouldn't throw up while the little one was working hard to feed her.

Looking at Zoe, 'I want a girl baby… babies.' She was adamant about having a minimum of two babies and she didn't think of maximum but hoped to have three babies playing around them.

...

All were in the cabana when the housekeeper whispered in Madam Wood's ear, the latter whispered back giving some instruction before sending her away.

It was late in the night when Ceon and Davies' family left the Wood's mansion after generally talking about the wedding of Zara and Ceon. Elders left most of the choice for couples to have in their own way impeding no restriction.

When Noah and Norah entered their bedroom they saw a paper bag on the bed, they checked it to see three different pregnancy test kits. Curious, Noah read the instruction while Norah paced like a headless chicken. According to what she studies on the internet, if she gets positive on the first day of missed periods, then she is pregnant but it was still a week ahead.

Noah taught her what he read and pushed the scaredy-cat inside the bathroom.

1 minute…

3 minutes…

5 minutes…

7 minutes… 

Noah was getting anxious without hearing a word from her, "Norah, I am coming in…" He announced standing at the connected bathroom door.

"Noahhhh…" Norah screamed on top of her lungs causing Noah's heart to leap, he busted inside the bathroom to check what happened but to see Norah dancing happily.

He paused thinking she wasn't this happy when they got married or when she saw him after two long years, he sighed helplessly and held her first before she trips and falls somewhere.

She threw herself on him in excitement, "I am pregnant… I am pregnant… Our baby would be in the same class as Eva and Arrie's babies. They will be friends…"

Noah: "..."

He was happy, really happy for completing her wish to have a baby but he was speechless hearing Eva and Aria's babies. He couldn't put a finger on what was going on in her head.

Norah didn't noticed his reaction and ran out to master and madam Wood's room and rammed on the door before announcing excitedly as soon as the door opened, "Mom, Dad, you are going to be grandparents."

Madam and master Wood were ready to go to bed so they quite got it when she blurted out. Noah's voice sounded behind Norah, "Your dear daughter-in-law is pregnant."

Master Wood patted Norah's head while madam Wood took a few seconds to register it and hugged Norah who was grinning ear to ear.

"Congratulations to you two." Master Wood wished and earned one back, "Congratulations for you too Dad and Mom."

The husbands waited for their wife to calm down in their excitement before rushing them to rest but Norah again ran to Zara's room and delivered the good news.

Noah thought it ended but the news reached all the ears of the Hanes family and all the friends earned a pop of messages about the news before Norah laid on the bed completely tired.

Noah patiently helped her drink water pulling her up and pulled her cheeks hard to bring her back to earth from the dreamland where she was flying around.

"Ah… it hurts, it hurts… it hurts…" Norah completely calmed down and faced Noah who was calm, composed, "Am I overexcited?"

Noah smiled, "Well, yes…" Norah puffed her cheeks and he continued, "I expected even more I guess." He was happy seeing her excitedly telling whoever she wanted to inform unlike the 'Kyle Mason' who was too quiet without reacting much to anything.

"Now tell, why you hurried about having a baby so soon? What does it have to do with drama queens babies?"

Norah blinked, blinked, and blinked but didn't utter a word thinking Noah might go mad hearing her reason.
