Chapter 17 Comfortable Dresses

• When the young couple sat on the table to eat, the lady was hardly touching her food. With her hand stroking her protruding belly, she ate very slowly, seemingly lost in thoughts. Before leaving for church in the morning, Sharon had commented something in the lines of Kiara’s dresses being too tight and therefore needing to be replaced by more comfortable clothes. On the previous night, the couple had had a long conversation concerning their marriage. Jeremy was proposing that they proceed and get legally married, even if it was a very small function with only their parents, Jacob and Nesisa. Kiara had flatly refused the idea, stating that she was not comfortable with her big belly, thus she needed to give birth first, regain her beautiful figure and then have a big wedding.
• Jeremy was not sure what exactly made her very quiet. She had not spoken a word to him since morning, and the young man was becoming confused.
• “Are you angry about the dresses? Mum did not mean it in a bad way, I think she is concerned that most of your clothes do not look comfortable,” he said, not sure whether he was triggering something else or not.
