Chapter 38: Chapter 38

Special Chapter

Aliyah’s POV

I was about to go to bed but something caught my attention.

Ruzzel’s phone was silently ringing. He left it on our bedside table.

I picked up his phone. A call from an unknown caller.

“Hello, who is this?” I said without any idea who is calling.

“I want to speak with Ruzzel.” the girl answered on the other line. Yes, you read it right. A girl. And who would have called him in the middle of the night, by the way?

“Who are you?” I repeated my question.

“And who are you as well? I want to speak with Ruzzel and not you.”

I tried to calm myself. Who the hell is this girl?

“Loo---” I was just about to say something but the girl on the other line ended the call. I tried re-dialing her number but I can’t able to reach her. Probably, she turned off her phone.

Minutes later, Ruzzel entered our room.

I stared at him. I don’t want to ask him about that girl.

“Are you sleepy, Aliyah?” He asked me while smiling.

“Yes. Goodnight.” I shortly answered then gave him a goodnight kiss.

Just a few months passed by since our wedding day. I have long forgotten that Ruzzel was a womanizer before, so as much as possible, I don’t want to think that he can do that again this time.

I have trust in him. And yet, I am also bothered if he is hiding anything from me.

----

I woke up early in the morning and just realized that Ruzzel already left. He didn’t bother to wake me up just to inform me that he will be leaving. It is the first time that he did this. Normally, he will let me know that he will be leaving.

I know it’s not good to over-think but I can’t help myself to do so.

I tried calling him but his phone is unattended.

I hurriedly prepare and fix myself then went straight to his office. Maybe he is just fixing something reason why he has to leave early.

When I arrived at the office, I was not able to see even just the shadow of Ruzzel. I clenched my fist. Where can I find him?!?!

I called Joana to asked if she knew where I can I find Ruzzel, but no to avail.

Ruzzel is getting into my nerves right now.

I just decided to go home. Maybe he just returned by now.

-----

No one is at home when I returned. I sat for a while and tried to calm myself.

I closed my eyes and think about positive things. Suddenly, my phone rang.

I expected a call from Ruzzel but I was wrong. It is a call from Joana.

“Did you see Ruzzel already?” she asked.

“No.”

“Where are you right now? I need to tell you something.”

“I’m in the house.”

In just a few minutes, Joanna arrived at our house.

She looked so worried.

“What is it that you wanted to tell me?” I asked.

She hurriedly showed me something on her phone.

It is a photo of Ruzzel together with a girl. Probably, they are having breakfast in a cafeteria nearby.

I was about to get Joanna’s phone so I could throw it but she took it before me.

“Calm down, Aliyah,” she said.

“How will I calm down?!?! Look! That evil is probably dating that girl! Once a casanova will be forever a casanova! I hate him! I hate him!!!!!!!!”

“You have to talk to Ruzzel first. Ask for an explanation about this.”

“I will not do it! I’ll better punch him than talk to him!!!”

“Aliyah....”

We both stop arguing when suddenly my phone rang. By looking at the screen, it’s Ruzzel.

I harshly get my phone and answered the call.

“You evil! What are you doing!?! So the one who called last night is she your girl!?!?!? I hate you Ruzzel! I hate you!” I can’t help myself but curse him.

“Aliyah....”

“Where are you right now?!?! You evil.”

“I will text you the address.”

I ended the call and waited for his text message.

Minutes after, Joanna and I headed to the address that Ruzzel sent me.

It’s a hotel!

Just by thinking of what is he doing in a hotel together with a stranger, it makes my blood go in a rush!!!!

I hurriedly walk towards the entrance when we reached the place.

Somehow I just realized that all the people who surround us are now staring at me.

I just rolled my eyes. I don’t care by the way.

Just by opening the hotel entrance, I was welcomed by hundreds of colorful balloons. I rolled my eyes again, a hotel that will welcome the guest with balloons, psh. I don’t get it.

It made me even more irritated.

I was about to walk towards the reception but I was surprised when I saw almost all of the frat members. What are they doing here?

I looked for Joanna, she suddenly disappeared.

I asked one of the frat members if what are they doing here but he is not answering me.

“Aliyah....”

A girl called me. I don’t know her, why is it that she knows me?

“Who are you?” I asked her.

“It’s the same question you ask me last night.”

W-wait, she is the girl who called Ruzzel?

I was about to pull her hair when suddenly Ruzzel came in.

He holds me and carried me away from the girl.

“Relax Aliyah, I am an OB-GYN.,” that girl said.

“I just called Ruzzel last night to confirm the schedule today,” she added.

“WHAT?!?!” I am clueless. So I looked upon Ruzzel.

He counted one, two, three...

And there it is...

All of my family, friends, and frat members showed up. They are all holding a balloon.

In unity, they all said “SURPRISE”

Then Joanna walked closer to me then handed me a bouquet.

“You know all of these huh?” I jokingly said to her as I get the flowers from her hands.

“Yes. I always do whatever makes you happy. And I know that this surprise of Ruzzel made you happy.”

I nodded then looked at Ruzzel. He held my chin.

“I just felt that we will be having our first baby so I contacted an ob-gyn. Don’t worry, she’s one of our relatives.”

I closed my eyes. What I was just thinking?

“Today, she will guide us and see if you are already bearing our first child.”

They all smiled at cheering us up.

I was moved to tears. I didn’t expect that Ruzzel can do a surprise like this.

I thought he’s back on being a casanova, but that is far away from that.

I kissed Ruzzel and hugged him tightly.

I am excited to see as well if I am already pregnant. How come that Ruzzel has an instinct first than me?

Hahaha... Oh by the way... We are now signing off... And we are sealing it with a kiss :)
