I'll Teach You, Marianne.

It took Jack 45 minutes to finish the food in front of him. Fortunately, he hadn't eaten anything since he woke up so that the three foods that Anne ordered earlier could all go into his mouth.

"Is it good?" asked Anne quietly without guilty to Jack who was trying to swallow the last mouthful of the Kartoffelsalat.

With his mouth full of food, Jack nodded his head slowly. To be honest, all the food that Anne asked for was delicious, but because of the large amount, Jack couldn't even taste the flavors anymore because they had been mixed together.

Anne smiled and handed Jack a glass of water.

"Thanks babe," Jack said quietly.

"You're welcome," answered Anne quickly. "After this we'll go to the beach, shall we?"

Cough... cough ...

Jack, who was drinking, choked when he heard Anne's words asking to go to the beach. Luckily, Jack was only drinking water and was not eating so he could quickly control himself again.

Seeing Jack choked, Anne immediately patted Jack on the back carefully. "What's wrong with you, you're just drinking water, and you choke."

Jack wiped his lips with a tissue and looked at Anne who was sitting beside him gracefully.

"W-what did you say, babe?"

"Just drinking water can choke you?"

Jack shook his head. "No, before that."

Anne was silent, trying to remember the words she had said earlier. After a long silence, her eyes suddenly lit up. "Go to the beach?'

"Yes," Jack answered simply. "You want to go to the beach?"

"Yes, I want to see the beach. It seems like it would be fun for us to walk along the beach, playing with water," answered Anne quickly without guilt.

Jack took Anne's hand and held it tightly. "Do you know where we are right now?"

"At home."

"That's not it, I mean which country are we in?"

"Luxembourg."

Jack smiled. "Do you know where Luxembourg is?"

"Of course I know, Luxembourg is bordered by Germany, France and..."

"And?" Jack interrupted Anne again quickly.

Anne's eyes were immediately filled with tears. "And not bordering the sea."

Jack chuckled and stroked Anne's head. "That's right, that's why in Luxembourg there are no beaches."

"So what do we do?" asked Anne hoarsely, her eyes were brimming with tears that ere ready to fall any moment.

"Do you really want to go to the beach?" asked Jack softly.

Anne immediately nodded quickly and vigorously as a response to Jack's questions. Seeing Anne's attitude, Jack grinned.

"Alright, let me call Doctor Caitylin first, okay?"

"Why should you call Doctor Caitlyn?" asked Anne, confused.

Jack touched Anne's face and wiped the tears that were streaming down her face. "You're pregnant and you're nauseated. I have to ask her whether or not it's dangerous for you with your current condition to fly more than 5 hours."

"Fly more than five hours?" Anne repeated Jack's words in confusion.

"Yes, I want to take you to a very beautiful beach," replied Jack softly before he finally left Anne to take his cell phone in the room.

When Jack left, Anne could only stay silent and stare at her husband's back without blinking. Without speaking, she then grabbed her own cell phone and began to find out where the most beautiful beaches in Europe were. At least, she should know where she was going now, that was why Anne immediately ventured into cyberspace.

"No sir, Anne's condition is unstable. The fetus is only 5 weeks old and it is very risky if she is too tired, especially considering that Anne had a miscarriage. The risk is getting bigger, so you better cancel your intention, that is if you love the baby that is currently in Anne's womb," said Doctor Caitlyn loudly on the phone.

Jack ruffled his hair. "But Anne wants it so badly, Doc, is there no other way? We're not going alone any way, you're going with us too."

"But still, sir, my presence will not help much, because basically Anne's condition is not allowing for air travel for that long, not to mention your activities on the beach. Trust me this time, sir. Just refuse Anne's request," said Doctor Caitlyn again.

"Okay Doc, I'll try to talk to her."

"Very well, I'm sure Anne will understand. She's a smart woman, though I'm pretty sure her pregnancy has made her a different person, hasn't she?"

Jack chuckled. "Very different, Doc. I become her victim almost every day now. If this continues, I can confirm that in the next two or three months my stomach will definitely be as big as her stomach."

"W-what do you mean, sir? I don't understand?"

Jack took a deep breath and started to tell her everything, including the incident this morning where he had to eat three different kinds of dishes in front of Anne. On the other end of the phone, Doctor Caitlyn burst out laughing. She was so happy to know Jack was tormented by Anne's pregnancy.

"You sound so happy to see me in pain, Doc," said Jack in annoyance. He felt that Doctor Caitlyn was very happy for what happened to him.

Doctor Caitlyn wiped her wet lips from drinking water. She almost choked from laughing at Jack who was telling her his bad luck. "Not happy sir, but I'm grateful. I'm grateful for you who can finally feel the joy of being a future father. Believe me sir, this kind of thing will not happen again. Especially since when Anne was pregnant Christian you weren't there beside her, right? So just enjoy and live through it sincerely, because later on when Anne is pregnant again, I'm sure this kind of thing will not happen again. It could be that during her pregnancy later on after this she will be stronger and won't ask you for things, changes in the mood of pregnant women are different in each pregnancy, sir. So be patient."

Jack smiled hearing Doctor Caitlyn's words. Not long after, he turned off the call and stepped back towards the balcony to talk to Anne, but when he got to the balcony he was silent when he saw Anne was sleeping while sitting back on the chair.

"Hmmm..."

"Go to sleep babe, I'll move you to your room," said Jack softly when he managed to carry Anne from the chair.

Anne smiled and buried her face in Jack's chest, the masculine scent from Jack's body made Anne comfortable. With slow steps, Jack carried Anne bridal style to his bedroom, when he arrived at the bed Anne did not want to let go of her grip on Jack's shirt.

"You want me to come with you?" Jack asked quietly.

"Yes, don't go."

"Okay, I'll accompany you," said Jack softly back. "Now let go of your hand, sleep comfortably. I will lie down with you."

With her eyes closed, Anne then released her grip on Jack's clothes. She then slept peacefully facing Jack who was still sitting back. Jack smiled to see Anne sleeping. The woman looked more beautiful since her pregnancy.

"Excuse me sir, it's madam's cell phone," said a maid in a barely audible voice as she handed her Anne's cell phone to Jack.

Jack immediately accepted the phone and smiled broadly. "Thank you and please close the door again."

The maid nodded her head and rushed out of the master's room to continue her work again. After the door to his room was tightly closed, Jack then looked at Anne's cell phone and smiled when she saw the last photo that Anne saw. It was a new born baby knick-knacks all in pink adorn almost the entire photo gallery of Anne's cell phone, beating the number of Christian photos.

"It seems you also agree that Christian will have a baby sister, Anne. I love you Anne, thank you for all this happiness," Jack said softly as he stroked Anne's hair that covered her face.

Anne, who was disturbed when Jack's fingers touched her cheeks, seemed to move and pressed her face back into the pillow made of goose feathers which was very soft and comfortable. Seeing Anne moved, the smile on Jack's face grew wider. He was really happy now, everything that happened at the office seemed to be forgotten when he was with Anne.
