At Yang Globals Hospital

  Kenzie and Daryl ate the burgers that Butler Mark bought while sitting inside the waiting room.

  "Why don't you try to rest for a while, baby?" Daryl commented, noticing how restlessly Kenzie was moving and stretching around the room.

  "I can't… I want to be here when the doctors come out of the operation theatre," Kenzie said. Dary stretched his hand and pulled her back to her seat and into his arms.

  "Alright, then stay here in my arms. Try to relax, okay. I'm sure everything will turn out just fine," Daryl said reassuringly. Kenzie rested her head on his shoulders.

  She heaved a sigh and whispered, her voice cracking, "I tried to prepare myself for the worst, but I am still optimistic. I realize nothing is permanent in this world and we will all die eventually. But still, I'm hopeful that the doctors will bring some good news about his surgery being successful.

  I hope God will ensure that my father does not suffer. I love my father so much, and I hope he could live, many more years by our side with his future grandchildren, as he hopes to. A few more years… for him to be with us… is all I ask."

  "I'm sure he will," Daryl whispered as he kissed Kenzie on the forehead.

  Hours passed before the doctors finally came out of the operating room. Kenzie stood up. She held her breath and waited for the doctor to speak.

  "The surgery was successful. Your father has been moved to the ICU for further monitoring and observation."

  Tears fell down Kenzie's cheeks while a beautiful smile curved on her lips. She hugged Daryl tightly as she kept whispering over and over again, "Oh, thank you, Lord…"

  She was sobbing hard, too overwhelmed with the remarkable news. Daryl thanked the doctors and instructed Butler Mark to inform Cris about the good news.

  Kenzie's father needed to stay in the ICU which was the best place to monitor his conditions. The doctor told them that they would take him back to his room, probably a day after they had made sure that all of his parameters were stable.

  The couple then went back home while they waited for the doctor's signal that they could now see Kenzie's father.

  As soon as they arrived home, Kenzie took a quick shower while her husband made a quick call on his mobile phone. Daryl was on his laptop when she came out of the bathroom.

  "I'll go clean up very quickly. Wait for me…" she heard Dary mumble as he got up from the couch and hurried into the bathroom.

  Kenzie dried her hair while she kept smiling in the vanity mirror. She was very happy that her father was safe and the doctor had reassured them of his complete recovery soon. Though her father would be monitored closely for the possibility of long-term difficulties after surgery, she was hoping that there won't be any long-term difficulties.

  She yawned and jumped on their bed. She smirked at the thought of how Daryl had reminded her to wait for him. Today had been such a busy day that they missed out on making love and making the much-awaited baby. They should not let her fertile days pass by.

  She heard Daryl's footsteps and she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. She wondered what her husband would do.

  She felt Daryl's warmth as he joined her in bed.

  "Baby…" she heard him call. Then there was silence. She heard him sigh several times before she felt his lips on her cheek as he whispered, "Goodnight, baby."

  She tried her best not to move. She felt Daryl's arm snaking around her waist as his body pressed along her back. He stayed hugging her for a few minutes and Kenzie heard him sigh several times.

  She smiled as she felt her husband's frustrations, including the hard muscle that she could feel at her back. She wondered if Daryl would wake her up but he made no such attempt at all. He stayed still but she could hear him sighing every now and then.

  She moved and turned around to face him. She kept her eyes closed. Daryl pulled her closer, burying her face in his chest. She could hear the erratic beating of his heart and the irregular breathing but her husband remained docile, not making any move.

  "Baby," she heard him whisper but she did not answer. She suddenly felt guilty about bullying her husband so she moved her hand and touched him between his thighs, stroking his hard rod.

  She heard him groan in pleasure and Kenzie opened her eyes. She raised her head to look up at Daryl, whose eyes were closed. She slipped her hand inside his boxers and gently tugged his rod, rubbing it up and down.

  She rolled on top of him and pulled down his boxers. Daryl opened his eyes and said, "I thought you were already asleep. I wanted to wake you up but I thought you're tired and needed to rest as? it has been a long day."

  Kenzie bent and whispered in his ear, "I was just pretending, waiting to see if you would seduce me. But you took so long that you left me no choice."

  She was wearing her nightgown but there was nothing underneath it. She licked and nibbled at Daryl's earlobe as she brushed her folds on his hard rod, making him moan and sensually call her name.

  She trailed his jawline with kisses all the way up to his lips and slid her tongue inside his mouth. At the same time, she eagerly moved her buttock up his hips to let his rod slide inside her opening.

  Both of them gasped and followed it by moaning into each other's mouth, as Kenzie started to move, gyrating herself over him.

  She felt Daryl's hands on one of the cheeks of her buttock while the other one was gently squeezing and kneading one of her mounds.

  "You're driving me crazy, baby." Daryl panted as her movements sped up. She was bouncing, her lower body moving up and down, deeper and harder, embedding his fullness inside of her.

  "We need to work harder, darling. We must not rest until my fertile days are over. Wake me up if you have to," she whispered in a seductive voice.
