Chapter 44: chapter 44

Eleanor's POV,It's been two days since Kylen left to Den Burg. I picked my phone from the shelf to call him. And he answered in a single ring...! Amazingly surprising, isn't it?[Going to the past when Kylen and Nor were leaving to airport]Kylen suddenly pulled over the car on the way to airport.Unbuckling his seat, "Give me a minute.", he ran out.My phone rang. "Hey mom.""Where are you? Is it good time to talk?"I chuckled, "I'm on the way to airport-""Are you coming to Boston already?!", she got excited, and she started to call dad."Mom, listen. Kylen has a flight to catch. Not me.""I miss you sweety! It's ok if you don't want to go to Aunt Tia's birthday but visit us."Kylen got back inside the car with a present."I'll call you back. Okay?", I replied to mom and ended the call."A going-away-gift for me?", I raised a brow.He chuckled, "It's for me. But I want you to open it."With a baffled expression, I tore the wrapper. Yeah, I like tearing the wrappers."Oh!", my brain cells were working fine, "A new phone."Kylen placed a hand over mine, "This phone will have only your contact in it. I'll answer your calls wherever I'm, however I'm. I'll have it with me, always.""You could have bought another sim!""I don't want you to be merged with my old phone's contacts. I don't want you to suffer from anxiety anymore.", he shook his head.He knew all ways to win my heart. He cared for every detail of my agony.I leaned over to my side and hugged him.[Back to present]"Hey! Missing me already? Hello?", Kylen's voice on the line snapped me out of the trail of memories."No. I'm not.", I teased him."Ouch!"Both of us laughed as we were facetiming each other. Though Kylen said I could call him anytime, I was little aware of the time lag, and that he is there for business.It was morning here, ten past ten while in Den Burg it was seven in evening.Kylen was looking out of phone and it seemed like he was walking."I'm going back to hotel, Miss Overthinker.", he replied, without even looking at me."Your day is already over!", I whined, "Mine starts now.""My days don't start without you."I rolled my eyes, "Cheesy lines don't work on me."My doorbell rang. "Go and answer the door. We will talk later."The bell rang again, thrice this time.I was perplexed because I was inside my room and Kylen too had heard the bell. Good audio capturing quality, my phone possessed."Okay. Take care!""You too!"I wondered who it could be, walking out.I was beyond shocked unlocking the door."Kat?!"She is known for banging my door. Today was different.Pulling me into an embrace, she sobbed.I rubbed her back, softly.She broke the hug, "I'm stuck in a tornado, Ela. I don't know what to do anymore."Taking her to the couch, I made her drink a glass of water."I went to your office thinking you were there. They said you were working from home.""Idiot, couldn't you text or call me?!", I yelled at her playfully.Also, I know that Kat and Kylen have gotten closer. Because, only Kat knew about my anxiety issues. And magically, now Kylen knows it too. Right now, that was not my concern.I held her palms, "What is the reason for urgency Kattsy?""I'm pregnant. Accidentally.", she breathed lowly, saying it."Omg! Congratulations!!", I hugged her, "Rick would be on cloud nine!"I got so happy hearing it, that I forgot she was crying.She was lost somewhere."Kattsy? Rick knows it right?"No reply. I shook her by her knees."Yeah. He is aware."As far as I know, Rick loves kids.I rubbed my forehead, "Are you not ready to be a parent? Or Rick?""It's not about being ready, Ela.", she looked at me, "Rick and I, both of us are excited. Infact, Rick's parents are already planning for our wedding too."I could sense a but coming.She took a quick breath, "Apparently there are gonna be complications with pregnancy. I have been touring around hospitals, getting every damn test for confirmation. Doctors are highly recommending to go for an abortion.", she continued shedding tears, "And they said that it's hazardous for mother and kid because my uterus might not be strong enough to carry a baby."My breath hitched inside my throat.She broke down.I hugged her sideways warmly."Rick doesn't know about this complication yet, Ela. He will definitely choose abortion saying that I'm more important to him. But I don't want to let go of our baby. I can't. There might not be any other chance of me being mother again. I wish I never knew about these damn complications."Tears gushed out from my eyes as well.I patted her forehead, "Rick and you have to take this decision together as a couple."She snapped her head, looking at me, "Kylen said the same thing! Literally the same words."I furiously stared at her."I'm sorry. I hid it from you. Actually, Kylen wouldn't know either but-", she made a halt."But?""I was sitting on a bench last week outside with the reports. Coincidently, Kylen ran into me, and I was on verge of breaking down.", Kat smiled, "Since then he's been helping me."Interesting. That is why Kylen and Kat, both of them were acting weird, the other day."I told Kylen to not to tell you anything before me.", she added."It's okay. I'm happy that alteast today you opened up to me.", I assured her, squeezing her palm between my hands."Ela, one thing about Kylen. I have never seen such a man with so much of compatibility. He is unique, though he has his own flaws of being arrogant with me, sometimes."I chuckled, "The 2 K's of my life are getting along. What else could I ask for? Yay!""Hehe.", she gradually held her lower abdomen."Talk to Rick, please. Don't delay it further please. And you have to stay strong."She nodded, dissolved in her pain.It sucks to see a cheerful-bubbly person being in dismay!My laptop blinked a notification."Wow.", I sarcastically grinned, reading the mail."What happened?"I stared at the screen, "My manager is going to Aunt Tia's party tomorrow in Boston.""What will you do?", Kat blinked at me, "Are you going?"
