BLACK RAIN AND DARK SKY (53)

Cane's body was stiffened when he heard how surprised Grace was when she checked on Iris. His jaw clenched tightly, as all the negative thoughts invaded his mind. 

He lost Leane and their baby when she was eight months pregnant and now, Iris was only seven months, somehow, he became very apprehensive the close she was to eight months. Of course, the two things couldn't be connected, since the situation was very different, yet he couldn't help, but felt restless, especially when he had to be away all the time. 

Cane didn't want to think this was not the right time to have a child, because it would sound like he didn't want the baby. He wanted their baby, but he felt hopeless and guilty because he couldn't give a better environment for Iris and their future child. 

"What is it, Grace? Is something happened to my baby?" Iris asked, she held Grace's hand. She also could feel Cane's hand on her waist tightened, as his body became stiff. "Is there something wrong?"
