Chapter 25 - Fever
The sun\'s rays infiltrate the luxurious room with the nuances of romance which has witnessed the sacred night between two lovebirds who have been married for a long time but have recently made love. Ethan and Luna, still fast asleep with Luna\'s position hugging Ethan by using her husband\'s hand as a cushion for her head. they put on a blanket for the two of them. Ah, maybe they are still naked.
Luna tightened her hug, even more, when she felt even more shivering. Now and then she sneezes, disturbing Ethan\'s sleeping activity. The man opened his eyes when he felt the heat sticking to his body and also because the pregnant woman was sneezing.
"Luna. You\'re sick," Ethan muttered as he looked down at his shivering wife. He touched Luna\'s forehead with the back of his hand.
"It\'s cold ..." said Luna with her eyes still closed. She was reluctant to open his eyes, perhaps because she felt dizzy too.
Ethan became worried, he kissed Luna\'s forehead and then let go of his hug. Ethan got out of bed and put his clothes back on.
"I\'ll call the doctor and ask to come here to check on you. Now get up first, put your clothes on," exclaimed Ethan, who was now sitting on the edge of the bed, stroking Luna\'s head gently.
"No need to call a doctor. I\'m just a cold," cried Luna as she sat herself down.
"But your face is very pale, Honey. I\'ll call the doctor right now. Please don\'t refuse," said Ethan, staring sadly at his wife who looked pale and languid.
Luna covered herself with a blanket and then got out of bed. "I want to take a shower using warm water."
"You have a fever, why do you even want to take a shower? "asked Ethan, surprised.
"Last night, we made love, of course now I have to take a shower. Moreover, I will be examined by a doctor," said Luna as she walked to the bathroom.
Etha sighed. "She\'s right. After sex, we have to shower, it\'s mandatory," Ethan muttered. he immediately contacted his regular doctor.
While waiting for Luna to finish taking a shower, Ethan cleaned up his messy room and was still full of roses that looked worn and crumpled. Occasionally he smiled as he remembered the sacred night that had happened last night. But his smile disappeared when he remembered that the pregnant woman was now sick. Ethan became worried that the cause of his wife\'s illness was the fatigue of making love.
Luna came out of the bathroom wearing a pink bathrobe. She sits down in front of the mirror, then dries her hair with a small towel.
Ethan approached Luna and took the hairdryer and turned it on, intending to help dry his wife\'s hair.
"Ethan, I can dry it myself," said Luna turning towards Ethan.
"Let\'s dry quickly," Ethan replied.
Luna sighed, staring at her husband, who was too attentive. "You better take a shower, the doctor will come soon," she exclaimed with a flat gaze. Now and then he still sneezes.
"Yes, I\'ll take a shower first." Ethan handed the hairdryer to Luna. He immediately walked to the bathroom.

Viona is having breakfast with Edward. There was only silence between the two of them because the man did not love his wife. He was reluctant to just chat. Moreover, since Luna became his sister-in-law, that man was getting lazy with his wife.
Edward\'s desire to seize Luna from his younger brother is very strong. Moreover, that woman had filled his heart for almost two years. He wanted to get away from that Viona whom he did not love.
"Viona," said Edward. Breaking the silence of their morning breakfast.
"Yes, why?" asked Viona with a raised eyebrow.
"Better, you stop supplying funds to my company," said Edward while continuing his eating activities.
"Why, don\'t you need it?" asked Viona again. She began to feel that something was wrong with her husband.
"My company is starting to stabilize. I don\'t want to keep spending on your father\'s money," Edward replied.
Fiona sighed. She was afraid that the man in front of her might divorce her after leaving her father\'s help. Moreover, she had not seen the love in her husband\'s eyes for her.
"Yes, I\'ll tell father later," Viona said with a reassuring smile. Edward replied with a stiff smile. Just imagine, how can we smile at a woman we don\'t love at all? Even marrying her out of necessity, it all felt like eating without appetite.
\'I\'ll keep holding you to always be my husband, Edward. Whatever the way!\' Viona thought as she continued her breakfast activities. She glanced at Edward, who returned indifferently.

Luna lay on the bed, she was wearing a white negligee with a floral pattern combined with a light blue blazer. After taking a shower, she shivered even more.
Ethan was in the kitchen to get breakfast and made milk for Luna. The hot daddy candidate is neatly wearing a gray tuxedo and combing her hair in a pomade style. He will go to the office after his wife is checked by a doctor who has not come. Ah. maybe it is still jammed because the streets of Jakarta are always congested in the morning so the traffic is not smooth.
"Have breakfast first, Honey," said Ethan, who had just entered the room with chicken soup and a glass of milk.
Luna blushed, she realized that her husband just had a new call for her.
"Since when was the call \'dear\'?" asked Luna with a smile on her lips.
"Since ... since last night, maybe you don\'t remember enjoying our night," Ethan replied with a blushing smile. Ah, they look like they just got married.
"Don\'t talk about it. I\'m embarrassed!" cried Luna, glancing at her husband, who was already handsome and neat.
"Yes. Now eat first, so you have energy. Let our babies be healthy too," Ethan exclaimed as he touched his wife\'s stomach which was getting bigger and bigger every day.
Luna blushed, she smiled as she took a bowl of chicken soup and started eating. Ethan waited patiently for her to finish and gave her milk.
TOK ... TOKK ... TOKKK.
The door to the room was knocked on from outside. Ethan immediately walked to the door and opened it.
"The doctor has come, Sir," said Ira.
"Just get in here," Ethan exclaimed.
Ira nodded and turned to call the doctor to enter his employer\'s room.
The doctor immediately came in and it happened that Luna had finished breakfast. Ethan just silently watched the doctor who was examining his wife.
"You are just exhausted. And the cold usually occurs because of the effects of changing seasons. Avoid drinking ice, going out at night, too much activity, traveling long distances. It can affect the health of the baby in your womb moreover, this is the first pregnancy and twins. Your body is very vulnerable," explained the doctor after examining Luna.
Luna just nodded in understanding. Because she was quite tired after going to Singapore.
"Will having a husband and wife do sex also make a pregnant woman worse?" Ethan asked innocently.
Luna\'s eyes widened successfully, staring at her husband, who was openly asking about this taboo. She was very ashamed of the beautiful doctor who examined her.
"It doesn\'t matter. It\'s just that, not too often," the doctor replied, smiling at the timid Luna. As for Ethan ... Don\'t ask! he was too innocent and not shy at all. for him, the important thing is that he gets the knowledge so that he does not get mistaken and worry too much. Of course, he is happy to be able to continue making love while his wife is pregnant.
"I will prescribe this medicine. Later you will redeem it at the pharmacy." The doctor handed Ethan a paper with the names of the medicine and the drinking rules written on it.
"Yes. Thank you," said Ethan as he took the paper.
"Hopefully get well soon. I will excuse you," said the doctor while greeting Luna and Ethan.
After the doctor left the room, Luna glanced at her husband, who looked normal.
"ETHAN," cried Luna.
"Eh. Yes, why?" Ethan asked, raising an eyebrow.
"You shouldn\'t have to ask about that problem, it\'s embarrassing! We can find information via the internet," replied Luna grumpily, unfortunately, she didn\'t have horns.
"As long as there are experts. So, I just ask. Don\'t be ashamed, because she\'s a doctor. She must be used to people like us," said Ethan as he sat on the edge of the bed.
Luna frowned, she shifted her head to her husband\'s shoulder. "Don\'t go to the office, just stay home!!" Asked Luna with a spoiled tone.
Ethan smiled in response to his spoiled wife. "Yes, I will call my secretary to cancel today\'s meeting," he said later.
"Yes, you have to. Anyway, accompany me all day !!" Luna glanced at her husband, who was making her fall in love every day.
"Yes, but I have to buy medicine at the pharmacy now," said Ethan as he turned to look at Luna.
"Just tell Ira or the driver. Just stay home. No refusal!!" exclaimed Luna as she lay down with her head resting on Ethan\'s thigh.
Ethan sighed. He could only surrender to all Luna\'s requests. If not, last night\'s happiness will just wear off. He did not want his wife who had just accepted him to be angry and hate him again. Easy office problems, because he\'s the boss.
