Hendrix was about to bring the documents upstairs when Minnie stopped him with a smile. "Master Hendrix, pregnancy cramps can be painful. Give her a massage later. I bought a bottle of essential oil at noon. It's in your bedroom."

I was dumbfounded. Then, I realized that Hendrix was asking if the cramps hurt.

I looked at Minnie and saw her nodding at me. I looked back at Hendrix, could not help but nod my head. I forced a smile as I replied, "Yes."

He frowned but still spoke in his usual calmness. "Come on."

He went ahead and headed straight for the bedroom. I turned to Minnie in a daze, and said, "But Minnie, I have no cramps!"
