She's My Sleeping Pill
749 [Bonus chapter] EXTRAORDINARY CLUES FROM STEFAN
The next morning, Stefan called the university clinic to ask for a leave of absence on behalf of his wife. The school doctor expressed his concern and worry for Cayenne but Stefan reassured him that it was not something life-threatening.
Cheska was supposed to have her day off but since Stefan called for her help, she forced her body to get up for work. She also wanted to know if this hospital visit would bring them the good news.
Around 10:00 in the morning, Cayenne and Stefan arrived, disguised from head to toe to make sure that no one would recognize the. He didnât realize that by doing such a thing, they attracted more attention from other people. They even crossed paths with Eli but he was in a hurry for work â didnât have the time to say hi. Not that he recognized them in their disguise.
A nurse tended to Cayenneâs needs while waiting for Cheska to come over. They didnât wait for so long because ten minutes later, Cheska came gasping for air.
âGive me a sec! Donât even retort because Iâm supposed to have my day off and I came running here for you.â
âSorry for bothering you,â Cayenne responded in a whisper. âWe didnât really mean to disturb your rest.â
âNah. I was just kidding. Itâs fine. Thereâs no need to worry.â
The nurse handed the paper works to Cheska which includes the questionnaire about the patientâs preferences. It has sensitive information but they were all professional and there was nothing to be ashamed of.
Checking the papers, Cheskaâs eyes lit up and this did not escape Stefanâs keen observation. âIs it positive?â
.....
âAccording to her answers, yes. Cayenne could be pregnant but we need to make sure. Did you try taking a test at home?â
âNo,â Cayenne said regretfully. âWe really wanted to, but weâre worried that it would turn out to be wrong.â
âThatâs fine.â Cheska signed something for Cayenne and encoded some information on her computer. âYou can do the test here in the hospital.â
Three hours later, Stefan and Cayenne were sitting in their car with a dazed look on their faces. Cayenne was holding the test results tightly in her hands because she was afraid she was just dreaming that she lost it. She needed it as proof that she was sober and that she really went to the hospital for a check-up.
âLetâs go to the villa,â Stefan said and the place he meant was the place where Magnus and Ferdinand live. âLetâs do something fun. Dad should not be home at this hour. Heh! Letâs give a fright.â
âYou canât do that. What if something bad happens?â
âRelax. Itâs not good for the baby if you are agitated.â
With Stefanâs careful planning to prank the people they cared about, their prank turned out successful and he was able to film it from the start until the end. Only Kyle didnât fall victim to their prank and the reason was because of his girlfriend. When Cayenne and Stefan went for a check-up, Kath also arrived to accompany her father for a urinalysis. She happened to recognize the two bodyguards and knew that the couple who alighted the car was Cayenne and Stefan. Seeing that they came out from the OBâs room with a blissful expression, she already guessed what transpired and told Kyle about it.
âDo you think itâs a boy?â Luiz asked his sister excitedly. He even skipped class because âsomethingâ bad happened at home. He didnât know that heâd be pranked by his sister and his brother-in-law, but since he already skipped, he decided to just ask for a leave of absence.
The news spread quickly to her friends and families like wildfire in summer. Reuben insisted to hire a nanny for her but Stefan refused because he wanted to take care of his wife personally. He canât leave her in the hands of other people. It will just add to his worry.
Luna who heard of this good news also sent her a congratulatory message and even told Cayenne to never forget her during her babyâs baptism which wouldnât happen until 8 months later. Everyone was just so happy with the nest. Cayenne even posted it on her social media accounts and many people wished her and her baby well.
Unlike her who can share her happiness with the world, Monet only had her assistant during her pregnancy; and Jess wasnât even available 27/4 because she has work to do as well. Every time she leaves for work, she would always persuades her employer to talk to Thomas but Monet refused her suggestion time and time again.
Monet didnât want to embarrass herself. Even if it was true, she wouldnât want people to think she was so desperate to have Thomas that she even orchestrated something to rape him. Women arenât the only victims of rape. Men could fall victim to this horrible crime as well and at this point, Monet knew that she did something terrible. She would rather let the world know how selfish she was. Aside from losing the friendship she had with Thomas, there will be a big chance that she will be subjected to the crime she committed. She didnât want to go to jail. She wanted to spend time with her child.
Not even her parents know of her whereabouts.
Currently, the baby in her womb was already 20 weeks old and she was happy to see how much her stomach have grown. Even though she was going to be a single mother, she wasnât afraid or worried about peopleâs judgment. As long as they wouldnât know her babyâs connection to Thomas Aizenberg, everything will be fine.
âHavenât you found her?â Stefan asked Thomas over the phone when Cayenne was busy changing her clothes. âI already gave you a clue. Think of the places that she might want to stay.â
âBro, did you think that the Philippines is like City A? This is a country. You gave me a clue which is the whole country. I already went to Cebu and her parents didnât know a thing. I even stayed longer, thinking that maybe they were just hiding her from me, but no. Monet isnât really here.â
âIâll give you another clue. Sheâs somewhere in Luzon. Itâs all up to you now.â
Thomas didnât know if he should be thankful for the clue or get pissed off for getting another wide scope for his search operation. [Where the hell in Luzon can I find you?] Thomas questioned mentally in frustration when a pamphlet flew into his face which added to his frustration. He was about to crumple the paper when he noticed something in it. It wasnât an ordinary pamphlet. It was a travel pamphlet that features Baguio City. [Why did I ever forget that?! Damn it! She already gave me clues before. I was just too dumb!]
