My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

When I woke up, I turned around and saw Hendrix looking at me with his bright eyes. Surprised, I asked, "You're awake?"

He cocked his eyebrows and replied to me with another question, "Are you hungry?"

As I was barely awake, I shook my head. I wanted to stretch, but I got a shooting pain up my back whenever I tried. It was uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but whimper. "What's wrong?" Hendrix asked worriedly.

"My back is hurting so bad!" For no reason, I had always felt that the baby was growing too fast. I was only six months pregnant, but the baby bump was already so big.

When I took a shower the day before, I paid attention to it and saw some stretch marks. They looked somewhat ugly.

Hendrix put his hand on my waist to lightly massage me, and he suggested, "It's about time that you join prenatal care classes. Go and do some yoga to ease your pain. I'll go with you tomorrow."

I felt lazy, so I declined and gave an excuse,
