Icy twins and hot actors 93: Feeling bad
*Luca* “How are you feeling ?” I ask Lumi as She comes out of the bathroom. It is morning and I am still in bed. I can’t help but notice how pale she is. “I am fine Luca”. She says, getting that Stubberup look in her eyes. “It is just a bit of morning sickness, totally normal”. I give her a small smile. “We both know there is no such thing as ‘totally normal’ when it comes to you”. She gives me another one of those looks then turns away from me and goes back into the bathroom. The door slams shut behind her, leaving me with only silence for company. I sigh deeply, knowing what will happen next. That damnable stubborness. Why does she do this? doesn’t She know by now that I am with her … not against her. I get up and pull on my pants, befor I go to knock on the door. “Lumi, sweetie”. “Get lost wookie”. She says, using the old nickname. “Can I come in, darling ?” I ask softly. There is no answer. I bang again. This time I hear a muffled thump followed by sobbing. My heart sin
Icy twins and hot actors 94: Seeing a specialist
*Lumi* The sun is setting as Luca and I walk hand-in-hand down the tree-lined path leading to the specialist's office. We have been through so much since we met, and for each obstacle our love for each other only seems to deepen. My pregnancy brings us immense joy, but it also brings more challenges and fears. My leukemia diagnosis is devastating, has always been to me, but we face it together now and that helps. Always the optimist, I believed that I could manage my health well enough without the meds to get through the pregnancy, but lately, I feel more and more fatigued. Luca squeezes my hand as we approach the entrance to the building. "Whatever happens, Lumi, we will get through it together". I look up at him, knowing that my eyes are glistening with unshed tears. "I know, Luca. I love you so much". "I love you too". He says, pulling me in for a tender kiss. There has to be a way, not only because I want our baby more than anything, but because I want to make Luca a father.
Icy twins and hot actors 95: Getting ready
*Luca* The morning sun filters gently through the curtains, casting a warm, golden glow over our cozy bedroom. I slowly open my eyes and catch a glimpse of Lumi, her peaceful expression making her look absolutely radiant. A sense of excitement wells up inside me for the day ahead. A day at the fair with Lumi, Meri, and Tom is just what we need to lighten the moods, get the thoughts only more positive paths and create unforgettable memories. As Lumi gradually wakes up, she turns to me, her eyes bright and full of life. "I slept so well last night". She says, stretching her arms above her head, her voice soft and content. I study her face for any signs of discomfort or worry. "And how are you feeling now ?" "I feel great, actually". She responds, beaming with enthusiasm. "I think the new medication is making a significant difference". I smile, relieved and happy for her. "That's wonderful to hear". We get out of bed and start our morning routine, anticipation building as we prepar
Icy twins and hot actors 96: Fun fair
*Meri* The sun is shining brightly as we enter the fair ground, and the smell of popcorn and cotton candy fills the air. "I have always loved the atmosphere of fairs". I say, grinning at Tom. He squeezes my hand and nods in agreement. Lumi and Luca walk beside us, their laughter contagious. "Remember when we used to come to carnivals as kids?" Lumi asks, her eyes sparkling. "Of course, we always had so much fun together". I reply, reminiscing. “But you never tried a Texan one”. Luca winks at us. “Cowboy style”. “Yi-ha”. Lumi cheers. It warms my heart to see her in such high spirits. As we enter the area with the games and rides, Tom spots a ring toss game and challenges Luca. "Bet I can win a stuffed animal for Meri before you can win one for Lumiøz He says, smirking. "You are on”. Luca replies, grinning. “You do remember my card toss right ? You can still bow out”. Lumi and I stand on the sidelines, cheering them on. "They are so competitive”. I laugh. "It's adorable”. Lum
Icy twins and hot actors 97: Another check up
*Lumi* As we get ready for the appointment, I can see the worry painted across Luca's face. He's been so nervous ever since we found out about my leukemia, and now that we're expecting our first child, his concern has only grown. "Luca, I promise I've been feeling so much better since starting the new medicine," I reassure him, as we both get dressed. He nods, but his eyes still hold a hint of fear. "I know, Lumi, it's just that... I can't help but worry about you and the baby," he admits, his voice trembling slightly. I walk over to him, placing a gentle hand on his cheek. "We're in this together, remember? And the doctors are keeping a close eye on us. We'll be okay." He takes a deep breath and nods again, pulling me into a tight embrace. I can feel his heart racing, and I know that he's trying to be strong for both of us. We arrive at the clinic hand in hand, and check in at the reception desk. First I have to go to the nurse, having blood drawn, so the doctor can check e
Icy twins and hot actors 98: Water break
*Meri* I'm sitting on the edge of the couch, gently rubbing my lower back as a dull ache radiates through it. Tom looks over at me with concern in his eyes. "Are you okay, love ?" he asks, setting down the book he has been reading. I nod, trying to smile through the discomfort. "Yeah, it's just my body getting ready for the birth, I think. It's probably normal". Tom's face softens, and he moves closer to me. "Let me give you a massage. It might help with the pain". I gratefully accept his offer. Tom fetches a yoga ball from the corner of the room and places it in front of the couch. I carefully lean over the yoga ball, resting my upper body on it, while Tom starts massaging my lower back. As he works on my tense muscles, I can't help but let out a small groan of relief. His strong hands expertly knead the achy area, easing my discomfort. After a while, Tom starts talking about our little boy, who is due to arrive in just a week. "I can't wait to meet him, Meri. Our lives
Icy twins and hot actors 99: Unexpected cursing
*Tom* I'm standing next to Meri, holding her hand tightly as we wait for the doctor to arrive. The room feels small, even though it's quite spacious, with both our families sharing it. I can feel the tension in the air, and my heart races with every passing moment. Meri's grip on my hand tightens as another contraction hits. I wince in sympathy, but she just lets out a string of curses that would make a sailor blush. It's a side of her I haven't seen before, and it catches me off guard. She has always been the more composed of the two sisters, but the pain seems to bring out a whole new side of her. My eyes drift over to Luca and Lumi. Luca is resting his forehead against Lumi's temple, whispering something in her ear. Lumi, who I have always known to be the more fiery and passionate of the two, seems surprisingly calm in this situation. It's a stark contrast to Meri's reaction, and it's oddly reassuring. I look back at my fiancée, trying to figure out how to help her through thi
Icy twins and hot actors 100: Bathroom break
*Luca* I watch as Lumi struggles with the electrolyte drink. I gently encourage her, saying. "It's important to stay hydrated, babe. Just a bit more”. After she has finished drinking, Lumi tells me she wants to get up and walk around. I support her as she rises, wrapping my arm around her waist. As we walk, the contractions continue to hit. Each time one comes, I gently stroke her lower back, trying to alleviate some of the pain, wishing I could remove it all. "Just breathe, Lumi. I'm here for you”. I whisper to her. Across the room, Meri is voicing her regret about not getting an epidural. Lumi, feeling her sister's pain, walks over to comfort her. "It's going to be okay, Meri. We are in this together". She reassures her sister. Seeing that Tom needs a break, having noticed him shuffle his feet for a while, I tell him, "Go ahead, man. Take a quick bathroom break. We will be here”. As Tom goes to the bathroom, I stay close to Lumi and Meri, prepared to help them through whateve
