Kapitel 2: CHAPTER 2
"I'm very happy that the two of us get to meet at last Jessica," Aunt Clara, let out before serving fried rice on her plate. "I'm also glad and honored, Aunty," Jessica replied with a simple smile.
"Your food is still as delicious as ever Aunt Clara, I have missed this so much," Travis muttered filling his mouth with another huge spoon of rice. "Well, thank God you are back to eat so many of my homemade delicious meals, however," Aunt Clara said with sadness visible on her face.
"However, what?" Travis asked, dropping his spoon to stare at Aunt Clara.
"Now that you would be staying here. What kind of job do you think you would get? You know the jobs here aren't something you could get so easily in this town and seeing how your father left us a huge debt to pay. I'm just worried, how on earth would we be able to pay off such debt?" Aunt Clara let out her concern.
"The debt we owe Mrs. Mary is to be paid off soon, how do we do that?" Aunt Clara asked again.
"You don't have to worry Aunt Clara, I have talked to Mrs. Mary and she agreed that I could work in her wine factory and all that we owe would be deducted from my salary," Travis told her. "But if what we owe is being deducted from your salary, nothing would be left to help here around the house," Aunt Clara said.
"You don't have to worry about that Aunt Clara, I have some money saved up from England. It would go a long way for us and I would make sure I work some overtime to make sure we are okay and lack nothing," Travis explained.
"What matters to me the most is that all our family are together and fine," Travis muttered with a huge grin. "Alright Travis, eat up before your food gets cold." Aunt Clara said with a smile.
"Yummy, this banana tastes really nice! Have some of this Travis," Jessica said, trying to hand him a banana. "What are you doing? Take that away, don't you know Travis is allergic to Banana? I thought you should know that by now since you're his wife," Aunt Clara said.
"No, that's alright aunty! I wasn't able to tell Jessica about that, moreover, it's not a big deal," Travis said.
"You should have more banana's Love," Travis let out to Jessica, "I'm really okay babe," Jessica said with a small smile. "How cheesy," Emerald squealed happily but Aunt Clara rolled her eyes before sighing at the boring show in front of her.
***************
Travis had woken up early in the morning the next day to head to work.
After Jessica and Travis had their breakfast. They walked hand in hand as Jessica escorted him to the factory he was going to start work at, the factory wasn't far from where they dwelled. "Wow babe, where you would be working is beautiful," Jessica muttered with Amazement in her eyes.
"I know right, the owner is really wealthy," Travis replied.
"It's big, isn't it?" He asked.
"Yes, very big," Jessica replied.
Travis smiled before pulling Jessica into a big warm hug. "I don't want you to go but I have to work, you should head back home and I will see you when I get back," Travis said, kissing Jessica on the cheeks.
He was about to leave but Jessica stopped him.
"What's it Love?" He asked. "Do you think I could work here too? I mean I want to help settle the debt we owe Mrs. Mary and help around the house expenses," she said but Travis only scoffed before laughing.
"What's it?" She asked.
"I just had a feeling that you were going to ask me that question but I won't let you love, I don't want you getting stressed out or tired. You should stay home with Emerald and Aunt Clara, follow them to the market, and help them sell some fruit." Travis Advised.
"I just felt we would earn bigger if I worked here babe," Jessica said. "Don't worry, I promise that I have got this covered," Travis said before staring at her. He bent low before kissing her lips, he pulled away before pecking her forehead.
"I will see you when I get back home," he said before leaving.
Jessica had just packed Travis's clothes from the rope where she had spread them. She was about to leave to get them ironed when Aunt Clara called her. "Aunty, anything the matter?" She asked.
"Nothing really, just curious! How long have you and my son been together before marriage?" She asked Jessica before eating from the pasta in front of her.
"We have been together for four years," Jessica replied, shocked at the question being thrown at her. "In those four years, have you saved any money?" Aunt Clara asked.
"No, nothing," Jessica replied politely.
"What? I feel so sorry for my poor son, he is taking the responsibility of paying off our debt, and then another person adds up for him to support," Aunt Clara muttered harshly.
"I can just help out in the Market," Jessica offered. "No, you should iron those clothes instead," Aunt Clara said before leaving.
FOUR MONTH LATER
"The moon is really beautiful tonight," Travis said, hugging Jessica from behind. "Is something wrong, Love? Do you have a problem? You seem a bit quiet," Travis asked worriedly.
"You know that I haven't been feeling well lately. Well, I just got back from the health clinic close by," Jessica let out as Travis pulled away from the hug before swiveling Jessica to face him.
"Yes, and what did they say, love?" He asked. Rubbing her hands gently. "Do you remember a wish that we both made?" She asked, making Travis nod.
"Well, that wish finally came true," she muttered with a smile. "Are you telling me that I will become a father soon?" Travis asked with an enormous grin placed at each corner of his lips. "Wait, are we going to be a family soon?" He asked yet again.
"You're keeping me in suspense, say, something love," Travis begged. "Yes, we are going to have a family together babe," she said as Travis carried her in a bridal style.
"Thank you," Travis said before pulling his wife into a hug. They were both happily rejoicing with no hint that Aunt Clara was eavesdropping on their whole conversation.
