160 Three Things To Stop
“How long will you wear the mask? You know, I’m really offended.”
“Just run the car first, your behavior earlier really made a lot of people see us.”
Arthur sighed heavily, finally following Kalea’s words to leave the neighborhood first.
“Are you satisfied now? Hey, I’ve bathed so many times that there’s no weird smell that makes you nauseous. What exactly are you nauseous about?” Arthur asked completely at a loss for words because of Kalea’s behavior as if she was disgusting trash.
“Nauseated by your behavior.”
“....”
Actually, today Kalea did not smell anything strange from Arthur or from the man’s car. She slowly took off her mask, still trying to sniff to make sure there really was not anything that would make her nauseous and want to vomit. Kalea moved closer to Arthur who was focused on driving, sniffing the man’s odor more closely. Everything seemed normal, this was better than when Arthur forced her to drive her to campus. Kalea pulled her body away from Arthur, slightly relieved that she did not smell the scent that kept making her nauseous due to the effects of pregnancy.
Kalea thought she could not get close to Arthur, but it turned out there was a trigger. There was something attached to Arthur’s body that night that made her vomit.
“I think I know why I get nauseous around you,” Kalea said, which immediately made Arthur turn his head.
.....
“What?”

“Well, I won’t be like that when I see you,” Arthur relented. This was all for the sake of the child Kalea was carrying.
“Neither can I if you are close to another woman. Her perfume sticks, it makes me sick,” Kalea continued, which immediately made Arthur frown.
“Really? Are you sure it’s because of that too?”
“Of course, don’t you realize that every time you come to see me, there’s always an unfamiliar perfume that I don’t recognize.”
“I changed my perfume.”
“Talk to my hand, there’s no way you’re wearing sweet or feminine perfume,” Kalea snorted in annoyance.
Arthur sighed again, but in the end he relented. “Alright, whenever I’m going to see you, I’m going to take a shower so you don’t smell those three things,” Arthur broke off; but somehow it left Kalea unsatisfied.
“If I think of you still doing those three things, it makes me want to puke.”
Arthur turned to Kalea, his eyebrows knitted together. “You just want to play with me, don’t you?”
“Why would I do that? I’m honest, it’s probably what your son wants too,” Kalea replied casually as she stroked her stomach.
Arthur was still trying to be patient, even though he was already feeling miffed. “Alright, I won’t do cigarettes, alcohol, and won’t meet any women for a while. Are you satisfied, Miss. Lovaata?”
The corners of Kalea’s lips lifted, revealing a sweet and satisfied smile as her wish was granted. “I’m glad you can work with me.”
Kalea thought Arthur would really turn into a cold and uncaring man. However, Arthur behaved naturally and still paid attention to Kalea. Even though Arthur had rejected her, Kalea could not help but feel happy that she had the chance to have Arthur as a whole even if only for a short while. Perhaps it was also the pregnancy hormones that made Kalea want to be close and cared for by Arthur.
They had been wandering around for almost an hour, but Arthur had yet to find a place to eat that Kalea wanted. The man was really tired, but the woman beside him now was not as easy to choose food as when she was not pregnant.
“How about here?” Arthur asked after stopping the car in front of an Italian-style restaurant.
“I don’t want to smell alcohol, Arthur.”
“Babe, we can book a private room if your nose is really that sensitive,” Arthur said almost losing his temper.
“I want junkfood.”
The corners of Arthur’s lips twitched in annoyance, they had been walking around for almost an hour, Kalea’s behavior was getting on his nerves, and now this girl wanted junk food? Arthur pinched Kalea’s cheek lightly and said, “What? Say it again.”
“No, I didn’t mean it,” Kalea replied, her nerves getting small at Arthur’s rather frightening response. “Then stay here.”
“Are you sure?”
Arthur quickly got out of the car and opened the door for Kalea. He did not want any more drama where he kept wandering around just to find the right restaurant. Arthur held Kalea’s hand to follow him into the restaurant. For parking, he used the valet parking service.
Arthur also ordered a more private room so that Kalea could not smell the alcohol of the other customers. The waiter escorted them to a room dominated by brown color. There was a large chandelier above the dining table, and a mirror that led to the table, allowing Kalea to see herself in the reflection. Arthur pulled out a chair for Kalea to sit on, which Kalea gladly accepted.
The waiter began to hand the menu book to the two of them. It did not take long for Arthur to decide what he wanted to order, he did not order alcohol because he had promised not to drink it. He did not know but he was not sure if he could seriously resist the three pleasures that had become his lifestyle. However, he still wanted to try for the sake of Kalea and the baby she was carrying.
On the other hand, Kalea was still looking for a suitable food that would not make her stomach queasy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Still deciding?” Arthur.
“I just want this,” Kalea said, pointing to a name she could not read so that the waiter would know for herself what she wanted. However, Kalea was sure it was soup.
“Is that all?” Arthur asked, still unsure.
“Yes.
The waiter smiled kindly and took down all the orders. Then she left the room to deliver the orders to the chef.
“What foods make you sick, Lea?” Arthur asked to break the silence between them.
“I don’t know, I haven’t tried every kind of food in the world. But I can’t smell any pungent odors,” Kalea replied. Arthur simply nodded in understanding.
“By the way, does Zeline know about you yet?”
“I just told her earlier.” Kalea frowned, confused by Arthur’s ghost-like expression. “Why are you so surprised?”
“I shouldn’t have told her in the first place, I didn’t want this news to spread,” Arthur said with a sigh. Actually, he would eventually tell Dariel the news of Kalea’s pregnancy. “Yeah, but hopefully Zeline won’t spread the word.”
“She won’t, after all, Zeline doesn’t have any friends in college besides me,” Kalea said as she played with her spoon and fork.
“And you don’t have any friends other than her either,” Arthur retorted, instantly silencing Kalea. “Well, the point is I don’t want my family to know. Something untoward could happen.”
Kalea looked at Arthur, a look that was hard to interpret. She understood what her sugar daddy meant about not wanting her family to know. Albern and Aquila were so fond of Kalea, and if they found out she was pregnant, the Jefferson family would be so shocked that they would probably want them to get married. Kalea was fine with that, but Arthur was not. The man still wanted to play around even though the consequences of his free life had made a woman pregnant with his child.
“Arthur,” Kalea called out.
“Hm?”
“Don’t you have the slightest feeling for me?”
