Chapter 90: Chapter 90

Hospital, I need to be at the hospital.

What is wrong? Bernard asked

I don't know. He grabbed his keys

We are coming with you. Bernard said, the three rush out, and Beck hit the steering, it seems like the ride is taking him too long to get to where Alexia is.

Relax!!!

Jesse, did you just say relax? What if something is wrong with her? Of cause something is wrong with her, she wouldn't be at the hospital if nothing is wrong. Oh God! Don't tell anything happens to her.

Jesse and Bernard look at Beck, they can't believe that this stubborn Beck will get shaken because of a woman, he rips his hair back in frustration, throwing his phone at Jesse.

What will I do with it? Jesse questioned

Stop asking to keep calling her till she picked. Beck yelled at him.

She is not taking it.

What? Beck hit the wheel. Get off my way. He yelled beating the traffic light, Bernard's eyes bulge.

Beck, you just...

Fuck those rules. Beck has never behaved irrationally all his life, he has always been conservative but not in the business of the heart if anything happens to Alexia, the man might go crazy, they say first love last for a lifetime, even if both parties don't end up together.

Can you relax, I will call Max. Bernard said, he grabbed his phone and place a call to Max, pick up your call. Hey man!!! Bernard speaks as soon as Max takes his call.

Hi!!! Did you miss your friend that you abandon?

You know I didn't abandon you, I just want to be left alone.

I get it but you shouldn't stay away for too long, you know your mom misses you and she had been worried about your whereabouts.

Oh!

What's that?

Come on Max, I didn't call you for that, is your cousin with you?

Alexia?

Yes, how many cousins did you have?

Sorry, I was just surprised you are asking about someone's wife. Bernard rolls his eyes. Stop rolling your eyes at me.

Silly, come on tell me, her husband is the one asking after his wife.

You are with Beck? Bernard stutter.

Yes, he is worried, he missed Alexia's call and he is... The line went off. Whoa! He ends the call on me.

Why? Beck seethed, he shrugged, and Jesse pushed his face from behind the front seat.

Maybe, you should think of it, like they are organizing a wedding between you two and you the groom had been missing in action.

Will you shut up? Beck seethed, Jesse pin his lips together, and for the first time Bernard laughed, Beck glared at him, and he cover his lips.

Relax man, I don't anything is wrong with Alexia, if she is, Max will be all berserk, like Jesse...

Not a word about this punk comment.

No, what am I saying is that, she might be pregnant. The car came to a halt, Beck look at Bernard, he never thought of that before, Bernard was about to apologize, and Beck pulled out the door of his car.

You should pack it. He said. Bernard and Jesse raise their head, and they are right in front of the hospital, Beck didn't give them a second glance before rushing into the hospital, getting the information of the ward Alexia is in, and he runs towards the ward.

****

Meanwhile, inside the ward, Alexia is getting tense.

Relax, he is coming, Bernard called, I am sure he is worked up and the man is dying to know what you are doing in the hospital. Max said trying to make Alexia relax.

Last night, when the family was having dinner, Alexia felt dizzy and passed out, although Emily had noticed that, Alexia is been picky and is always tired when the family spends time together, she had suspected that this young lady is pregnant but she doesn't want to jump into conclusion.

Passing out last night, confirmed her suspicion, the only test she had told Max to conduct on her daughter, is pregnancy test and her suspicion was confirmed, that her daughter is going to be a mother for the first time, and she and her husband are going to be grandparents. Now prime minister Lee has no choice but to accept the union between the two.

Alexia tries to reach Beck to give him the good news but the man is drinking away his life at Jesse's quarter. Prime Minister Lee had no choice but to put a call across to field marshall.

Come on dear, you should smile, I don't want you to be worked up. Field Marshall said running his hand through Alexia's hair. The old man had refused to leave since he got the news that he is going to be a great-grandfather, he never thought this day will come when he doesn't have to force Beck to make all his wishes come true

Field Marshall...

Call me Grandpa. Everyone laughed.

Grandpa, you should go home, you've been here the own time, you and Father should...

No way, we are not leaving. Prime Minister Lee said, he too is excited that he is going to be a grandfather, and wants to always be around.

The door flew open, revealing Beck, his attention was on Alexia, he pay no attention to anyone, and he grabbed her hand.

Baby, what happened? You should tell me, if they aren't taking care of you, I will just have your transfer. Alexia smiled at him.

I missed you. She said cupping his face.

I missed you too. He pecks her hand, which she used in cupping his face. Tell me, are you...

No, I am fine.

What do you mean you are fine? If you are, what are you doing in the hospital? Alexia move her eyes to her tummy, Beck still didn't get the picture. What is it? Does your tummy hurt?

No! She frowns, and Beck runs his hand through his hair. Come on guess, she runs her hand on her tummy.

Is everything alright? He is slow to catch Alexia's pace.

Oh Alexia, this handsome of yourself is very slow. Leah commented giving Alexia fruit salad, Beck turned, and he was surprised that, he and Alexia are not the only ones in the room.

What is going on? Grandpa, you are here?

Yes, we have been calling since last night and you didn't take your call, what have you been...

Come on field Marshall, let the new father be. Emily said, Beck turned his gaze to Alexia

You are pregnant? Beck asked, Alexia nodded smiling

Yes! Beck kissed her. I am going to be a father, Grandpa, I am going to be a father. He hugged his grandfather.

Yes!!! He hugged his grandmother and then Emily. Baby, you don't know... The door flew open again, revealing Bernard and Jesse.

Beck...

You two.
