“I have a condition”

Episode- 274 “I have a condition”      Alisa’s POV:      I heard Edwin’s cough.. we actually forgot he was here.. Shane greeted Edwin, “Good afternoon.. your majesty..” Edwin just with a straight face, “Good afternoon…” Shane  looked at me weirdly,, he tired to change subject, “Sis.. did you gain weight?.. you look in good health…” I looked at Edwin.. he didn’t tell Shane.. really?... Shane don’t know about the baby… Edwin said in between, “she looks good anyways,,,” Shane nodded and said, “Yes…  anyways.. I mom use to say, we all should get little chubby.. there is nothing wrong in being healthy…” Edwin nod…     This is unbelievable, Edwin don’t want Shane to know.. Edwin grabbed my hand and I know he wants me to act along.. Shane looked around and asked with confusion, “Baby… clothes… and stuff…. Why?” the boxes are all here.. this is it … I am going to tell him.. he is family… he is important…    Edwin said in between, “it’s for Ken’s baby… Alisa.. got this all.. I mean this is a lot…”  Shane looked around and said, “yes.. I heard that it’s a girl… I wonder how cute she can be…”  I am angry at Edwin at this point.. he can’t treat Shane differently… this is not fair..    I said pulling my hand away from Edwin, “Shane.. I … I am pregnant… 4 months.. that’s why I gained weight.. and few of these boxes are for my baby…” Shane looked at me with surprise.. I noticed Edwin closed his eyes, and hit the sofa lightly with his feast..    I said as I can see Shane being sad, “I am sorry…I didn’t knew you were unaware…” Shane smiled at me.. this boy,,, we are the only people to him as family.. he feels felt out… Edwin this is wrong..    Shane looked down and said, “No.. sis.. I understand… I am… I am not family… but I am really happy to listen that I am being a uncle again…” he is sad.. his heart is broken..     I said trying to explain, “No.. you are family…” I know I have no excuse.. Edwin did wrong.. everyone of the family know … Ken and Tina knows so..why.. why Shane is out of this list…      Edwin said as I was trying to gather words, “Shane.. Alisa.. takes you as her own child.. and I know you take Alisa as if she is your real sister…. But as father of this child, I want it be born without this media pressure.. you know we didn’t even release any information about Alisa being in coma… so all of this is really serious.. as father… I thought you were too young to keep this to yourself… I want this baby to born as a normal child, come in world… now that you know please.. don’t tell anyone…I mean anyone…” Edwin.. he really didn’t mean to hurt Shane….  He just cares for this child so much.. but it still doesn’t change that Shane is hurt…  I noticed Shane smiling, he hugged Edwin. Edwin was surprised… he never hugs someone.. it’s only me so Edwin is surprised. Shane separated from Edwin and said, “You are really good for sis… please take care of her… I promise no one will know about this baby.. and I will be the best uncle.. I promise…” I smiled as I wiped my tears.. this is so sweet.. really sweet…. Edwin is still shocked.. really shocked….       Shane got up and said, “Sis.. what you want to eat.. I can make any desert for you.. I am so happy that I create a bakery for you…” I chuckled.. he is really sweet.. he such a amazing kid.. whoever was his mom.. she raised a child perfectly.. such a sweet child…   He is still waiting for my answer, I smiled and said, “The one you got me as engagement gift..” he nods and started walking to the kitchen.. I see him asking the maid for direction..    I spotted Edwin looking at me with smile, but he is somewhat angry. I can sense that. He said, “I forgive you for telling this foolish boy… but please don’t tell that Lee and Vick…” my eyes widen, he didn’t told his closest friend… but Vic is my friend too… it would be wrong…    But Edwin took my hand and said, “Promise me….” he asked this like he reads my mind..  I looked at him and I am confused.. Edwin asked again, “Now.. please… for me….” he is right.. lesser the people know.. it would be easy to hide.. I looked at him again.. he is looking at me intensely.…  but won’t be fair if only Vic and Lee is away from this news… I mean this is a happy news…  Edwin asked again, “Please little dove…” I sigh… ok he wins… I said, “Fine.. I won’t tell…” he smiled..    I added, “But I have a condition…” well I will use this as a golden chance.. I haven’t talked to him about going back to work.. he asked, “Condition?”   I nod and said, “I am going back to work from day after tomorrow…” he looked at me as if I was joking.. soon I found him covering his face… this is really pressuring… I know he is scared to leave me alone since I got kidnapped… and almost died… I understand.. I am scared to.. I am getting delusional and fear about going out .. but we have to face it..    I said, “Edwin…” I called his name, so he can know I want an answer… he turned to me and said, “Alisa… you are not recovered yet… and the baby,,,, how are we going to hide it if you go out everyday… media will follow you everywhere…. God! please understand…” he is reacting worst than I thought…    I took his hand in mine and said, “I am physically fine.. and about the baby… I can wear certain clothes.. so I can hide… it won’t be a problem… I promise…” he looked at me then looked away.. I heard him say, “No.. not good idea..”           I  touched his cheeks and said, “Please… I promise.. I really promise.. I will call you and tell you if anything bothers me,… I promise…” he looked at me for a wide moment.. he asked me, “Are you sure you will be ok?” I smiled and nodded.. I added, “I am a independent women.. trying to be stronger…” he chuckled on my words.. good… improvement..       He said, “Ok.. but I will increase your security.. and I need to put a tracker on your shoes or something so.. if anyone tries something.. I can find you quickly…. These are my conditions…” I pouted.. tracker.?.... am I a pet or something…. I thought for a moment.. he is right… tracker sounds to be extra?... but… but he can find me easily… in case something happens….    I said, “Ok.. deal..” I pouted.. he kissed my lips.. this time passionately… I smiled in the kiss… and got away from him.. we are in middle of the palace… no one is around.. but still it’s really shameless of us… he said making fun of me, “Blushing like it’s your first kiss…” I hit him with a pillow… can’t he just stop this.. but honestly I love him.. I really do…
