บท 67: Dante's silly mistake

''Your grace has not stopped smiling since I came in,'' remarked lily who placed the diaphragm of a stethoscope on Isla's naked belly. The faint pumping heartbeat of the unborn child resonated through ear tube in her ears

''My son has been greeting me every morning and night since that day,'' said Isla with her back on the backrest of the bed. Since that very day she felt her baby' kick, her heart has been full of joy. Whenever she greets him in the morning, he replies with a kick and in the night when she bids him goodnight, he replies with another kick. His actions showed Isla how lovely and respectful he would be in the future. The smile on her lips told Lily how much she loved the child, even though the father was not likable.
