Sonia felt her stomach hurt so much, she walked towards the first floor of the house intending to go to a restaurant to learn to cook again. His steps were halted and he just collapsed. Steve who was sitting in the living room immediately ran to Sonia, the girl's face was pale. "Sonia, are you okay?" Steve seemed to shake Sonia's body.
Several employees also approached and helped bring Sonia to her room. Steve immediately called their family's personal doctor who immediately arrived a few moments after being called.
Sonia was examined, her face still grimaced while holding her stomach. "Did this complaint just happen?" asked Doctor Jack, he had worked with the Leonardo family for the last 10 years.
"I just got my period today Doc, but for the first time it hurts more than usual!" Sonia whispered in her bed with dim eyes.
"This is called Dysmenorrhea, dysmenorrhea is pain or cramping in the lower abdomen, which appears before or during menstruation. In some women, dysmenorrhea can be mild, but in others, dysmenorrhea can be excessive to interfere with daily activities. But this is normal and nothing will happen!" Doctor explained.
"Is it dangerous, and clogs fertility?" asked Sonia, Steve who heard that focused on Sonia's words and waited for the Doctor's answer.
"So far there is no guarantee about it, but 80% of women experience dysmenorrhea and can still get pregnant," Sonia looked calm after hearing that. The doctor then said goodbye and advised Sonia to compress her stomach with hot water.
Which was immediately carried out by the housekeeper to make the young lady better. Steve called Edward that Sonia was sick, and the man who had just arrived at his office went straight home.
He didn't even have time to take the medicine he put in the car drawer.
Half an hour passed and Edward arrived home, he immediately went up the stairs to find his wife.
Seeing Sonia who closed her eyes in bed, made Edward sick. He sat beside her, took her hand and kissed it.
It made Sonia wake up, her hand still gripping the water compress on her stomach. "Honey, why are you home again?" Sonia whispered.
Edward unbuttoned his shirt and climbed onto the bed after taking off the shoes he was wearing too.
Then placed his wife's head in his stout arms. "I heard you were sick, so I went home! What happened, what hurts?" although the question was subtle, Edward could hear the worry in his low voice.
"This post-period pain, the first day I got my period! The doctor said this is normal, I was so scared earlier" Edward stroked his wife's hair. "Afraid of what?" he continued.
"I'm so afraid there's a problem with my womb, I'm afraid I can't give you offspring!" Edward's heart immediately shuddered, he was the one who should be afraid now.
"My love, are you not happy living alone with me?" Edward asked, instantly making Sonia tilt her head.
"Why are you talking like that, of course I'm happy with you"
"Then why do you keep thinking about babies, when just the two of you is enough?"
"Honey, the child is to strengthen our relationship! Then who will take care of me when I'm old?"
"I'll take care of you, until your hair is white!"
"Don't you want to have children from me?" Sonia was getting annoyed.
"Of course I want to, but I also want you not to think too much about it I'm afraid you're stressed and sick like yesterday, can't that hinder my love too!" Edward as usual gave Sonia peace of mind from his words.
"I'm so scared, it's been two years and I haven't even conceived even though we don't use contraception"
"You're right, I will also start living healthier so that we can have a baby quickly, I will go to the doctor regularly!" Hearing Edward's answer, Sonia was very happy, seeing Edward showing his interest in having a child.
"Thank you my love, our house would be more beautiful if there were crying babies here"
"Then! Are we going to have a baby just to make him cry in this house?" Edward teased his wife, causing Sonia to pinch her husband's stocky waist.
They hugged each other, and Edward kissed his wife on the head.
Sonia slept in Edward's arms, holding back the pain that had not yet subsided in her stomach.
Steve opened his laptop and saw the progress of the work he was testing. He got the call from the party he had been waiting for from an international examiner who was in his country of residence now New York.
After hearing the call Steve was very happy. The drug has been verified and deserves to be circulated among the public to help cure premature ejaculation or signs of Azoospermia.
Evening came, Sonia had better come down with Edward for dinner. All the sumptuous dishes were laid out on the table.
Steve was there too. "I have something to say!" Steve said, Sonia and Edward nodded at the same time then sat down.
"I just got news today that the drug I'm researching has been verified and certified as fit for circulation, I'll probably stay longer in New York before returning to the Netherlands, is it okay if I stay here longer?" Edward raised one eyebrow.
"Sis you can stay here as much as you want, why ask?" Edward replied with a smirk. "Now that you have a wife I have to ask for approval"
"Sis, you're like putting me as an evil sister-in-law!" said Sonia.
Everyone laughed after Sonia spoke like that. This made Steve happy, he was indeed more comfortable living at Edward's house than Mr. Leonardo or another apartment belonging to his family. He did not like living alone, even though in Holland he also lived alone.
They continued to eat and talk after that. After eating and chatting for a while Sonia and Edward returned upstairs, now they were sitting on the balcony.
The beautiful scenery stretches the view of the twinkling city lights that are also brightly lit. "Isn't New York very hot during the day?" Sonia said.
"Yes of course, why?" "Look at my husband building a lot of skyscrapers, and making tremendous electricity consumption at night! So it feels very hot during the day.
New York is truly a city that never dies!" Sonia explained. "I didn't think it would be like this either, building buildings was like a hobby for me and eventually became a habit!" Sonia nodded.
"Honey, don't you want to sit down?" Edward asked as his wife spoke and stood up.
"I want to sit here!" Sonia's cheerful voice was heard as she sat on her husband's lap. "Spoiled girl!" Edward whispered as he grabbed Sonia's waist and wrapped his arms around her.
