BXBX NOVEL Chapter 309 - Walk
Two weeks had passed and two weeks more were left for Roselyn to finally access her ninth month of pregnancy.
Since that day she could give birth anytime so maids paid extra attention to her and they never left her alone. The doctors John hired were already staying in the guests' room so in case Roselyn needed help they would respond to her appeal in no time.
Despite Roselyn appreciating John's help and the fact, he planned everything perfectly for the occasion all the people there agitated her and gave her more anxiety.
"Call me John," Roselyn said slightly irritated when she saw the fifth doctor pass by her room and peek inside to check on her.
That was enough, maybe John was exaggerating now.
John walked into the room hastily, after hearing the news she needed him. When he saw she was fine he breathed out in relief but Roselyn knitted her eyebrows down.
"So many doctors, It was enough if you called only one or two and when it was needed not two weeks before," Roselyn complained, her voice frustrated and annoyed..
"I know, I just wanted them to be there anyway. I wanted the best medical fierce and the best care and treatment for you." John said but she shook her head, she remembered Abigail's words, maybe she was right when she told her John's extra care was exaggerated.
"But you didn't ask me if it would be fine for me, you never inform me about what you do. You do all yourself!" Roselyn spat, her eyes filled with tears, and the maids hearing her raise her voice soon left the room walking away as if they understood the situation. They didn't want to be in the middle of what may be a hormonal crisis for Roselyn.
"You're right, Rose. I am sorry, do you want me to send them home?" John asked, wiping away the tears that fell down her face.
Roselyn scoffed, she didn't even know what she wanted, the only thing she knew was that she was irritated and nervous. She rubbed her stomach with her hand since it was aching.
The stabbing in her stomach drove her even more irritated and she clenched her fists to endure the pain while she squirmed.
John knew her irritability was due to accessing the eighth and half month so he didn't mind her scold.
"Are you fine?" John asked wondering if it was time to call a doctor.
She took long deep breaths and then she knitted her eyebrows down one more time. "I am! Even if I wasn't you got tons of doctors!" Roselyn replied, still angry.
John bit his tongue not to giggle because he knew a chuckle would make her lose the last bit of patience in her body and made her even madder.
"I better go tell them to leave if they are bothering you," John said turning around and taking one step toward the door.
"No!" Roselyn raised her voice making John halt on the threshold of the door when he turned around Roselyn was smiling, she stretched her arm and looked at him tilting her head to the side, in an attempt to apologize for her switch of mood.
John smiled as well, he walked closer to her and held her hand, she turned to the side to look at him better.
"I am sorry, I didn't want to raise my voice and to scold you. I don't know what happened to me, my mood changes so easily and I feel so vulnerable and sensitive." Roselyn explained, she felt guilty for treating him badly.
However John was comprehensive, "It's fine, that is due to the hormones. All that I care about is that you're fine at the moment. If the presence of the doctors even bothers you a bit tell me even by screaming and scolding. I want to make you feel better, not worse." John said.
Roselyn then took advantage of his statement to murmur out aloud her thoughts, "I feel uncomfortable to have so many people here."
John didn't wait for her to add anything else, he only asked one question: "do you want me to tell them to leave?"
Roselyn nodded, he then kissed her cheek and whispered nearer to her ear, "thanks for telling me."
He then disappeared to go to the maids and told them to send all the doctors away, he recommended them to stay at home and be prepared to intervene anytime.
In case Roselyn would feel sick or would break her waters the maids would call them and would teleport them there with their supernatural speed. It may take a few minutes to gather them all together in John's residence but if that was what Roselyn wanted he had to respect it.
The doctors had been sent away and Roselyn remained in her room enjoying the silence and the peace of the house, finally, she didn't feel all the gazes on her and all the pressure the entire situation was putting on her.
The door was slightly open so in case she spoke or called the maids, John would hear her.
She stood up from the bed carefully and covering her belly with her hands she walked very slowly back and forth in the room.
She had heard from the ladies of the village, when she was still unmarried, that walking helped to indulge the babies to move and get ready to come out.
But after a few steps, she already felt tired, she was panting, and even taking a few steps tired her out so much she was sweating.
The effort was useful, she could feel the two babies moving and kicking so she narrowed her eyes and took a few more steps.
She bent down to hold onto the bed to rest for some instants and after about two minutes she began to walk again.
She headed to the window and opened it slightly to breathe some fresh air while her hand was still pressing on the top of her bump to endure the cramps.
Roselyn narrowed her eyes when a stab so intense made a shiver run through her spine.
She screamed in pain, clenching her fists while she hold onto the window's handle. Her knees gave up making her lose her balance.
