Eunji woke up on the day of her birthday with a foul mood.
Her belly ached as she suddenly felt them moving for the first ti today. She gasped as she was caught off-guard.
She knew it was normal but her insides were definitely not ready for this sudden developnt.
"Don't worry, the babies are all healthy and doing pretty well. There's nothing to be worried about. You'll get used to it." An Qi said after checking on her.
Eunji was advised to do bed rest in case she felt hurt every ti the babies moved.
Nathan had strictly told her to stay on the bed the entire day. She had no other choice but to comply.
Her als were sent by Aunt Lucy and she was not allowed to go outside of her room.
To her disappointnt, Nathan said he'd be going to the company as an ergency happened.
So he was absent for the entire day.
Luckily most of their friends ca by to visit her.
Alice, Iris, Kelly and Guo Xiaolan ca by to visit. The elders also ca by to visit her.
They wanted to keep her company so she won't feel bored for the entire day.
They made sure that she won't miss Nathan's presence.
They were all very excited when they heard that the babies moved.
Even Kelly and Alice who had experienced it first were more than excited to learn that the babies were moving.
After so ti, the elders left with an excuse that their topics might just make them out of place. So they decided to play mahjong on the living room. While the youngsters were left with Eunji. But truth to it, it was just an alibi.
"Do you know the gender of the babies already?" Kelly asked Eunji who was lying on the bed surrounded by Alice, Iris, Kelly, Xiaolan and Celine.
"Not yet." Eunji sincerely answered their expecting eyes.
"Then how are you going to buy infant clothes if you had not determine their genders?" Kelly asked but Eunji replied with her own question.
"How about you?"
"Not yet. We're going to do it tomorrow." Kelly told her.
"Honestly, I am nervous to know the gender. I want to give the Mos a daughter since they didn't have a daughter or a granddaughter in the family yet." Kelly added.
"That's a lot of pressure you have there huh." Eunji comnted.
"For ...I don't care about their gender. Nate and I are just praying that they'll be born healthy and with no complications. We will shower them with equal love." Eunji expressed her sentints.
She then turned to Alice since among the pregnant won in the room, at least she already knew the gender of her baby.
"How about you? How did you feel when you learnt that the baby you're carrying is a girl?"
"? I'm over the moon when Iris and I learnt that what we have is a little princess instead of little prince." Alice honestly said.
"No offense but I really wish to have a daughter than a son when I found out that I am pregnant." She added.
Eunji fell silent as the thought of seeing her children running towards her with open arms waiting for her hug flashed in her head.
"Do you have plans in knowing their gender then?" Alice asked her.
"It's up to Nate if he wanted to." Eunji passed the decision to Nathan.
"Any baby nas for them yet?" Kelly asked.
"Not yet. We decided to think of their nas when they are finally out." Eunji answered.
Everyone groaned as they felt like Eunji had no intentions on spoiling them.
"Eunji-chan, how about I give one of them a na? I'm sure the little fella who liked would love that, right?" Celine who had been listening in the sideline since then proposed.
Before Eunji could even answer her, she felt a one of them moved making her to gasp in shock.
"Oh my gosh! Did they move?" Celine asked.
"Well I guess I don't have to answer you then Yuki-neechan as the little fella already stepped in." Eunji smiled at Celine.
"That's great! I'll definitely shower him or her kisses and love." Celine promised and she reached out to touch Eunji's belly.
Then a thought ca on her mind.
"Little fellas, kick if the answer is yes and stay still if your answer is no. Understood?" She asked.
"What are you doing?" Kelly asked.
"I'm trying to talk to them. I believe these fellas here are a bunch of geniuses. It's in their genes after all." Celine answered making everyone to be surprised.
"Oh." They stay still as they were eager to find out too.
"Kick if there's a boy in there. One kick if only one two if two and three if three." She instructed.
Eunji then felt two kicks from the inside. And Celine felt it, too. Both of them were clearly surprised by the developnt.
"I guess we don't need to conduct a gender reveal as they just had revealed their gender to us." Celine told Eunji.
"I guess you're right!" Eunji agreed but she wanted to make sure too.
"Do I have a little princess in there?" Eunji asked the babies this ti.
And she got two kicks in response. Which made them to giggle.
"Seems like soone's still unsure of his or her gender." Celine teased.
"Maybe. The results are inconclusive for now. I guess we have to wait for your daddy's decision if we should know your genders first or wait until all of you are born." Eunji gently told them.
"Yeah right."
It was almost dinner ti and the girls wanted to bid goodbye to go ho.
But she asked them to stay for dinner in which they agreed.
They then heard a faint knock on the door and Guo Xiaolan opened it revealing Aunt Lucy and Marie standing by the door.
Instead of bringing a tray with her dinner on it, Aunt Lucy brought two boxes together with trailing behind Marie. One was the dress she would be wearing and the other one was for her shoes.
"The Master asked to bring these to you so you could wear them for tonight." Lucy said while placing them on the bed.
"Thank you Aunt Lucy." Eunji said as she moved closer to the boxes.
She uncovered the boxes and looked at the dress and the flat shoes.
Everyone smiled when they saw how nice and beautiful the dress was.
It was a three-fourth sleeved, knee-length, A-line red dress. The dress ca with a matching coat that had kept her warm. She would surely looked so stunning in the dress.
"I guess it's our cue to go out and leave you temporarily." Kelly said. Eunji let them leave all though she already felt like sothing was off.
Having no choice, Eunji let Marie to help her with changing and styling her hair while she put on little make up on her face afterwards.
"You looked stunning tonight Eunji." Marie said.
Then she took sothing from her pocket and said, "Here. I know this is a bit late but please accept this. This served as a token for my formal apology for acting such a b*tch to you." She sincerely said.
"Thank you Marie." Eunji reciprocated the latter's sincerity with her genuine smile.
Marie heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Eunji was now cool with her.
"Done." Marie said after she did Eunji's hair in waterfall hair style and curled a few inches of her hair down to the tip.
She looked glowing and stunning at the sa ti.
Marie then lead her towards the elevator so she could finally eat her dinner with Nathan.
Marie excused herself and left towards the kitchen.
Eunji then looked around and wonder why the living room were quiet.
Dinner would be served soon and she thought they would be hanging out here while waiting.
Then, she heard noises coming from the patio close to the garden and she got curious and followed the sound.
As she walked closer, she heard soone playing a beautiful piano lody.
Eunji quickened her pace and opened the door going towards the patio
She gasped when she saw them sitting on the chairs wrapped with white and pink clothing surrounding the tables.
She looked around and saw that so modifications and renovations were done in the place. It was way bigger than before. Bigger enough to accommodate seven tables in total including theirs which was at the center closest to the front.
Thousands of yellow LED lights were hanging on the poles and on the trees close the area illuminating the area around them.
There were lights on the ceiling too and because it was winter and a lot of trees had shed off their leaves, Nathan had surely invested on artificial plants just to make the place more lively and to looked like that in fairy tales.
Angelina was playing the piano for them. Yes. She had not fully recovered from her injuries but she was present in the event because she asked Kelly and Mo Jing-sheng.
Though reluctant, Nathan agreed.
He knew that Eunji had been planning to visit her in the hospital but because Nathan would not allow her to go out, Eunji had no other choice but to obey him.
Truth to it, when Eunji saw Angelina, the forr smiled over the latter.
In order to protect Angelina from her abusive husband and to not be implicated, they had to fake Angelina's death.
Sure enough when the Second Master received the news, he cald down and thought that he had succeeded.
As for Angelina, Eunji would ask her to do sothing to ensure that their plan was a success.
Eunji saw everyone smiling at her but she could not see the familiar face that she missed a lot.
Before she could even start walking down the short isle going to their table, soone had engulfed her into a tight hug from behind.
She didn't have to guess who it was as she knew who the person was.
She turned around and face the man who was already looking at her with gazes full of love and admiration.
Eunji smiled and the man bead with satisfaction.
He leaned forward making their foreheads to touch each other.
"Happy birthday my beloved wife." Nathan then paused as he looked at her face who was now on the verge of tears.
"Well, I guess my surprise for you was not as grand as what you did for ," he said making their friends and relatives to chuckle."
"But I hope this could replace the past mories you had for this day." He ended.
Eunji who was previously on the verge of crying cried.
Nathan was right. This was the day she had lost her loved ones. Even before she had recalled her mories, she had no energy to celebrate one. Therefore no one knew when was her birthday except for Michael Roland, Kelly and J.
However, for fear that she would recover her mories if they celebrated it, they never dared to ntion about it and celebrated it.
However, they would secretly send her gifts though.
Everyone understood why she was crying and their heart ached for her.
Realizing that she made everyone's mood to be gloomy, Eunji looked up as she tried to stop herself from crying.
Nathan asked for a tissue to help her wiping her face.
He giggled when Eunji kept on pouting at him when he was helping her.
Dinner started and they were in all admiration of the beautiful couple.
When the dinner was close to its end, Celine and J pushed a three-layered cake towards the center as it was now ti for her to blow the candle and make a wish after.
They gathered around and sang the birthday song and gave their birthday wishes for her afterwards.
"I never thought this day would co that I'll get the chance to celebrate my birthday with you guys. Thank you for making this day complete and surely morable to . Hubby, thank you for making all of these possible. I love you!"
With that, the couple shared a sweet kiss and everyone cheered.
They then gave their birthday gifts for Eunji and the celebrant accepted them with a huge and warm smile on her face.
Now, everyone was waiting for Nathan's birthday gift to Eunji but the man only told them that it would be a secret and only Eunji had the rights to see it.
Hua Zhang Wei even teased him by asking, "Are you going to offer yourself as a gift Nate? Don't you think it's a little too spoilt already?"
His question made everyone to giggle as they knew the underlying ssage to that.
The dinner ended and everyone was asked to retire on the vacant rooms in the mansion as it would be too risky to drive back to the city.
