His Sexual Addiction

Chapter 57: Tell Him

I woke up early in the morning, the first rays of sunlight gently filtering through the curtains. Feeling a sense of determination in my heart, I decided to kick-start my day with a refreshing shower. As I made my way to the bathroom, I couldn't help but notice that Lady Linda and Joday were nowhere to be seen in the maid's quarter. It seemed they had already left, most likely to start their day's work. In my haste to get ready for the day ahead, I quickened my steps, eager to get things done efficiently. Amidst the flurry of my morning routine, I noticed the pregnancy test that Joday had bought the night before, left undisturbed on the bathroom shelf. I promised myself to check it later when I had a moment to spare. However, work commitments beckoned, so I put the thought aside for the time being. Today, I had decided to have a heart-to-heart conversation with Kiro. The weight of my thoughts and emotions about the potential pregnancy had been building up, and I felt the need to share them with someone, especially with the father. As I walked out, I was surprised to find Miss Linda waiting for me. She guided me to the table, where a meal of rice, fried eggs, and hotdogs was prepared. Confused, I looked at her with questioning eyes. "Eat that first, Lyka. Joday and I prepared that for you," she said as she went back to the kitchen and returned with a cup of milk. I hesitated for a moment, unsure of why Miss Linda was insisting on me eating. I wanted to politely decline, mentioning it was too early for breakfast and that I didn't feel hungry yet. However, Miss Linda gently halted my words and opened up about her intuition that I might be pregnant. She earnestly encouraged me to nourish myself and take good care. Feeling a little bashful, I started nibbling on the meal she had prepared, while Miss Linda carried on with her tasks. It felt a bit odd to be treated with such special attention, considering I was also just a maid in the mansion. But her genuine concern touched my heart, and I felt grateful for her kindness and thoughtfulness. As I quietly ate my meal, my eyes caught sight of Joday emerging from the kitchen with a rectangular container, the aroma of Kiro's favorite food wafting in the air. My heart skipped a beat, aThis content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

sudden jolt of anxiety reminding me of my plan to talk to Kiro later that day. But before I could address that conversation, I knew I had to prioritize taking care of myself and unraveling the truth about my potential pregnancy.

I thought Joday was heading to Kiro's room, but to my surprise, she remained seated in front of me, gently placing the tray on the table. "Let's eat, Joday," I invited her to join me. However, she declined immediately, shaking her head, and asked, "Lyka, after you finish eating, are you going to deliver this food to Kiro?" Her question caught me off guard. That's right, I had made up my mind last night to talk to Kiro, to listen to his explanations, even though he had already tried to explain things to me before. I smiled at Joday and nodded in response, "Yes, Joday, I am." She grinned and jokingly play-slapped my arm, "Gosh, I thought you’re not going to tell him about the baby! That would've been something!" I let out a sigh, amused by her remark, and resumed eating my meal. Joday continued, "You know, every time I bring food to his room, he always asks, 'Where is Lyka?', 'Is Lyka okay?' It's annoying to listen to! It's as if he's compelled to see my face when I deliver his food!" Her complaints about Kiro made me laugh. She shared more amusing anecdotes about him, making it feel like it had been years since Kiro and I were apart, even though it definitely hadn't been that long. "Eh, Lyka? Have you taken the pregnancy test yet?" Joday's questions were relentless, and I was overwhelmed, so I hurriedly shoveled food into my mouth, hoping to divert her attention by eating. "W-what?" I stammered, caught off guard by the persistence of her inquiry, I almost choked. Joday handed me a glass of water, and I gulped it down hastily. "S-slow down with your questions, Joday," I promised, "I'll answer your question, just give me a moment." "Not yet," I finally replied.

But before I could say anything else, Joday seemed exasperated, "What? Why? You still don't know how to use it? It's a simple test, Lyka! Oh gosh, Lyka, I'll just go with you to the bathroom!" She stood up, ready to escort me, and I felt my heart race with a mix of embarrassment and panic. "It'll be later, Joday. It's past nine in the morning. I need to deliver this to Kiro," I informed her, taking the food tray meant for him. She nodded understandingly, promising to take care of whatever I had eaten. Just like before, I made my way through the darkest corners of the mansion to reach his room. I knocked three times, and as I was about to knock for the third time, the door swung open unexpectedly, revealing Kiro standing before me. I was taken aback by the sudden opening of the door and his presence. "Joday, I told you to just knock once because I remember Lyka— Lyka? Wait, Lyka? Are you here for me? Is it true?" he asked, his voice filled with astonishment. But instead of answering, I stood there, my cheeks flushed with embarrassment, I struggled to maintain my composure. The sight of Kiro with no shirt on, clad only in a towel wrapped around his waist, sent a rush of warmth to my face. I averted my gaze, feeling my heart pounding in my chest, unsure of how to handle the sudden surge of emotions that washed over me. "Y-you're here in front of me?" Kiro's question hung in the air, unanswered. Instead, I quickly turned my back to him and said, "Let's talk, but g-get dressed first," my voice shaking slightly with nervousness. Thankfully, he seemed to realize his state of undress and quickly smiled, trying to ease the awkwardness of the moment. Taking my hand gently, he agreed to get dressed before continuing our conversation. I felt my heart race as I led the way into his room, unsure of what to do in this unexpected and slightly uncomfortable situation. As he followed me, my mind raced with a flurry of thoughts. I wondered how I would bring up the topic of the pregnancy test, and what his reaction might be. The mixture of emotions inside me made it difficult to find the right words, but I knew I had to face this conversation head-on. Trying to collect my thoughts and steady my nerves, I took a deep breath. This was a moment that

could change the course of both our lives. Whatever the outcome, I will love the child.
