Chapter 66
- Danica's excitement washed the backache she felt when Loney arrived. Herty had spent a lot of time with her till the latter had gone to sleep in Danica's room. Loney knew how to soothe her backache and swollen legs. Most times soaking her legs in warm water, he will kneel and kiss her bump, resting his head and listening to his child's heartbeat. The baby nonetheless was sure to send some kicks, showing him that he was faring well.
- "How are you today?" He said gently to her while hugging her from the back. Danica had dished out his food on a plate which he took from her to the dining table after giving her a passionate kiss.
- "I'm happy that you are here," Danica confessed as she followed him to the dining room. Loney sat on the chair and beckoned her to sit on his lap while he ate. In her state, he has kicked against her waiting for him to eat together and for the sake of her unborn child, she obliged. Her right hand snaked behind his back while he ate. Loney loved the feel of her arms around him and smiled in gratitude. Danica had a way of easing the fatigue he brought home. The mere sight of her was enough to keep him refreshed and rejuvenated.
