"Mr. Mutou how about you go home and get some sleep." Doctor Yakima, a blue hair and red eyed woman said.
"Atem, listen to her." Tea told him.
It's been seven days since the shooting at the pier the doctors manage to remove the bullets from his shoulder and Tea's tight. Atem managed to recover and was released within five days. Tea in the mean time recovered quicker than her boyfriend but had to stay in the hospital a little longer to do some check up on the fetus.
During that time Duke and Kamala where sentence to 25 years in prison.
"I am staying till you're released." He replied.
The doctor sighed. She had come to know how stubborn he is when it comes to the people he loves and gave up. "Fine and if you must know Tea will be released very soon."
"How soon is soon?" Tea asked.
"Tonight maybe early tomorrow. All the things you have been through it could have really affected the baby so we have to make sure that everything is on the up and up."
"Understood doctor." Tea said.
The doctor took her leave of the room. "At least you will out of here soon."
"Yeah, at least you got your sick leave so you wouldn't be fired from your job for spending your time here." She said.
"Isis only gave me five days sick leave so technically I am supposed to be at work right now. She came yesterday and was told of my release from the hospital." Atem informed her.
"So what are you here? Sweetie, unlike my career where I don't have to really be there, your own involves you been in the office."
"Not to worry. I have it covered. Isis clocks in and out for me and sends someone to give me any work that needs to be done."
"That's sweet of her." Tea replied.
"Remember that Isis is one of our main supporters of our relationship. She and the other members of staff have a pool as to what age we will get married." He told her.
"Let me guess, she said we will get married in our twenty's."
"Twenty two and the others said twenty five." Atem said.
"Nice." Tea smiled. "You hear that baby?" She rubbed her stomach. "There is a pool on your mommy and daddy."
"The doctors said in another month time we will find out the gender of the baby." Atem said.
"If it's a girl, I feel like she is going to be a daddy's girl and it's a boy he won't have a favourite." Tea said what she felt.
"Don't care about the gender just as long as he or she is healthy and everything is where it's supposed to be."
Tea nodded in agreement. "Since you're staying for the night how about you go bathed then maybe you can follow me to buy some food outside. The hospital food gets worst with each passing day."
"Sure, let's go my sweet." He held her hand, gently. "You and I have been bathing buddies for nearly two months now and not planning on stopping it any time soon."
"Neither am I." Tea got up from the bed.
The brunette has surprisingly not gained any weight since the start of her pregnancy.
Hugging her waist, he said. "Next time we will try to be quite with our activities. Some of the patients had overheard our activities this morning when we were making love in the room."
"Yeah, we will have to be. Some of the women on the ward gave me the stink eyes. The nurses had to tell me that they are jealous that I have the King of Games as a boyfriend." She told him.
"Hope none of them turn out to be like Kamala." Atem said.
"Don't think any of them are that crazy." Tea said as they took out their clothes and walk to the bathroom.
"Ms. Gardner you and the baby are fine and can leave now." The same doctor from earlier said. "Remember to take your vitamins and next month for an ultra sound. Want to make sure everything goes smoothly during the pregnancy.
"Yes doctor." Tea replied. "Atem made sure to get enough of the vitamins to last till the nine months are over."
"That's good to hear." The doctor smiled.
Existing the room, Tea got ready. He had left earlier to go sign up some stuff for her.
As Tea changed into the clothes Atem brought over for her she head out into the waiting area to see Atem seating down wearing a dark blue jeans, black shirt and a dark blue jacket holding a small box in his hand.
"Atem," Tea said bringing him out of his thoughts. "I am ready to go."
"Okay let me just call a Taxi first" Atem replied.
"Taxi what happened to your car?"
"Kamala and Duke placed a bomb on it and it exploded"
"Say what now? Why didn't you tell me? Are you alright? Do you have any broken bones?" Tea asked in a rush.
"Slow down I manage to jump out of the car before it exploded. It's only a few buries."
"If you say so." Tea said in disbelieve
'Ask her now.' A voice in Atem's head said.
'No, not now. I want to do it someplace romantic.' Atem thought.
'Who cares about romantic she's marring you not the place.'
"Atem, are you okay?" Tea asked
"Yes I am but I have something to ask you." Atem said seriously. Tea turned around to see Atem on one knee with box still in his hand. "I know this isn't the most romantic place but I have to ask you Tea Anzu Gardner would you do me the honour of been my wife?" Atem said opening the box to reveal a gold ring with 3 diamonds.
Tea began to cry before saying, "Yes! Atem I would love to marry you." Atem placed the ring on your finger before getting up and kissing her passionately on the lips. "You have made me the happiest person right now." Tea said.
"I love you Tea." Atem said while whipping her tears away.
"I love you too, Atem." Tea said.
