Chapter 47 - Awkward Moment

"Do you still have to massage if Angeline's feet aren't swollen and painful, so why should I do something like that?" For some reason Bryan doesn't seem to like this pregnancy class. The instructor scolded Bryan and told him that everyone in the class was watching. "Isn't Mr. Bryan embarrassed?" "Okay, I'll do it." Finally, Bryan relented and agreed to do what the instructor told him to do. Angeline and Bryan got into position and began to gently massage Angeline's feet and calves. "Huh... Are your feet sore Angeline?" "Hmm, not really." "Then why would I be tired of doing this?" Angeline pouted. Bryan's attitude was still as cold as last night. The instructor heard Bryan's complaint and warned Bryan. "Don't just talk because the baby can hear what Mr. Bryan says." The instructor even demonstrated listening movements with both hands. "Okay, I understand," Bryan replied with the same hand movements as the instructor had done earlier. Now another massaging motion. The instructor told the husbands to gently massage their wives' backs and spines. Of course they all did, including Bryan. But Bryan did it very gently and actually amused Angeline and made her laugh out loud. And... this is the most interesting massage at the end of the exercise class. The instructor asked the husbands to put both hands under their wives' armpits. Sneak in and stand right next to your wife's chest. Of course, since all the women have bulging stomachs, the husbands don't massage right on their wives' chests, but on the top of their wives' stomachs, right under the breasts. "Massage gently and say you love your wife," the instructor said. Bryan and Angeline made it uncomfortable for themselves. "I'll try," Bryan said and started to put his hand under Angeline's armpit. Even though she felt uncomfortable, Angeline started to massage. But did he massage Angeline's breast? No, Bryan ridiculously seemed to be massaging the air. He compared it to Angeline's belly, which was bulging, so now it looked like she was massaging Bryan's belly. The instructor saw the strange behavior and raised an eyebrow. He really had a headache watching this strange couple. "Can't you do it right? How are you going to make your wife comfortable if you massage her like that?" The instructor scolded Bryan, and Bryan pretended not to notice that his hand was too far forward. He even laughed casually at this ridiculousness. Angeline was forced to laugh so she wouldn't be embarrassed by her and Bryan's behavior. The teacher was forced to intervene. He taught Bryan where to place his hands correctly for this move. After standing right next to Angeline's chest, the instructor clearly stated that Bryan had to hold his wife's chest. Then the instructor took Bryan's hands and pressed them against Angeline's chest. Immediately they both screamed. "Arghhhh..." Angeline immediately moved away from Bryan, and Bryan instead looked at his hands as if they were holding something hot. The instructor must have been surprised by the couple's behavior. Bryan and Angeline's prenatal exercise class was over. All the couples had left the room holding hands. Bryan came out alone carrying Angeline's bag. He then saw Angeline sitting alone in the lobby of the building. Bryan then approached Angeline. "Why didn't you come back earlier?" Bryan asked Angeline, who had left because her stomach hurt. But he never returned. "Hehehe, I don't want to come here anymore Bryan. I'm embarrassed... and I don't want to bother the others with our awkwardness. They look at us like we are strange, too," Angeline complained with a frown. "Why do you even think about other people's opinions when the gymnastics class has already been paid for a month?" "Sorry..." Angeline lowered her head even more. "Okay, no need to think about it. We don't have to go tomorrow. Here's your bag!" Bryan gave Angeline a bag as well. "Thanks hehehe..." Angeline smiled broadly. "But Bryan, I feel really happy today. Maybe because my baby thought it was the first time he and his dad did something together, so it was really fun." Bryan was stunned by Angeline's explanation, even if only for a split second. "The baby in my womb must be very happy because he can come with his father. Thank you, Bryan," Angeline continued. Angeline's words sounded sincere. "How could you know that?" Bryan asked confused. "I don't know, maybe it's my mother's instinct that I have now hehehe. Duh." Suddenly Angeline grabbed her stomach and made Bryan panic. "Does your stomach hurt?" "No, but my stomach..." "Huh, sit down first. You're tired, aren't you?" "No, Bryan. I..." "Why? Say it clearly?" Bryan was still panicking. For some reason he couldn't read Angeline's expression. "I'm hungry hehehe," Angeline said shyly. "Jesus Angeline, what was I thinking? Tell me if you want to eat." "Yeah, sorry. I've searched the internet for restaurants that are busy around here. Come on Bryan, let's go there!" Angeline asked happily. Bryan smiled and nodded. He held out his hand and without thinking, Angeline took it and walked away feeling very happy. Angeline satisfied her stomach's desire to eat. The baby in her stomach also made her eat a lot. But Angeline enjoyed it. In fact, the food she ate that afternoon was so delicious that Angeline immediately slurped the soup from the bowl and didn't use a spoon. He wasn't embarrassed or ashamed to do it even though he was in front of Bryan. Because they chose to sit near the window, many people saw them. But Angeline didn't care. Bryan even chuckled, he never got bored looking at Angeline, who really liked to eat. "Eat slowly. Do you want some more?" Bryan asked and handed him a tissue to clean up the stain on Angeline's face. "No, I'm really full hehehe..." "Yes, let's go home!" She invited Bryan and went straight to the cashier. The next day, Angeline went for a walk early in the morning and Angeline happened to see Alex carrying a lot of things. "Hi, what did you bring?" Angeline asked curiously. "Hey Angeline, are you out for your morning walk?" "Yeah, what are you carrying?" Angeline asked again without taking her eyes off him. "Ah, this is a paint can. Do you want to help me?" Alex asked. Angeline looked at the two paint cans and smiled as a sign that she agreed to help Daniel. Now Angeline helps Alex. They put up a sign for Alex's Cafe and Angeline gave them directions to the right location. Alex followed Angeline's instructions. After arranging the sign, Angeline and Alex are now arranging the chairs and tables for the cafe. When they were finished, they worked together to paint and give Alex's cafe bright colors. Angeline seemed to enjoy the activity. "Aren't you tired?" Daniel asked. "A little," Angeline said, sitting down and stretching her body. "Just rest first. I'll get you something to drink." "Okay."
