"Since Dawson died I know you tried your best so I do not feel it but the truth is I want to pass through this pain and stage with you. I also lost Dawson. He was the father and grandfather figure I never had"

He looked at her as she spoke. He saw the hurt in her eyes. It was like nothing he had seen before. The house was quiet and listless. There was barely any sound. All day they were both at work and only came back when they were so tired that all they wanted to do was sleep as soon as they came back. It was as if they were overworking themselves on purpose so they felt no pain.

"The truth is I want to be a part of your entire life. I am in pain so are you. I know you are hurting but so am l. I am sure we can get better if we stay together through the entire process" she continued.

Xavier stood up and made her stand too. He went in for a hug. "It's how you always know what to say," he said in her hair.

They stood like that for a few seconds. "You know I read in a book that gloo

    "Are you guys free tonight?" Alicia asked. She was on a call with Jessica and Leslie. She had gone around asking them both why they had been such killjoys lately. She had tried to get them both out several times during the past month and they had both declined the offer. She knew that Jessica needed someone who would be close to her at that time. "I have a date with my husband" Jessica replied. She felt relieved that Xavier had come around. It had a tough couple of months. Since he was not expressive about his emotions she was not sure how to act around him. "Awwn" they both cooed over the phone. "But wait what do you say we have a triple date?" Alicia asked. "Who would be your date since Jason is not in town?" Leslie jumped in to ask. "He is flying in. His flight should come in any moment from now" Alicia replied. In the past two months, she had been going in and out of Chiachester City. She had been to Crescent Bay so much that it was a wonder that the bloggers still followed th

    "I miss you too" "Should I come?" he asked. "Are you done with work for the day?" she asked. If she was being honest she wanted him by her side immediately but she did not want to act selfish she was going to blame it on the pregnancy hormones but she wanted him to be close to her. "No" he murmured lowly and she laughed. She turned her head to the clock on the wall. She was sitting in her office after the rush out of the restaurant. She had been on her feet for so long that it was beginning to ache. After Chef Mali had left she put in all the effort and for her, it was a privilege to see her restaurant thriving on the food preparation technique that she taught. However, some people came because they caught a whiff that she was a Delgado and they wanted to experience seeing her up front. "It would be over in the four hours and we can see each other," she said resting deep into the sofa she was sitting on. "And I miss you too but there are at least seven hours before we close up" s

    The news that they had all heard startled them. They were gaping at Jason and Alicia as she flaunted her rings in his face. "When did this happen?" Leslie said when she recovered. She had seen Alicia recently and she could not recall seeing a diamond on her hand. "Last week when I visited him and the city," she said with a smile. "How did the bloggers not carry this? You have been a great source of joy to them since you two have been showing an awful amount of love to each other. It was titled A Love Across Cities by Chiachester's Dailies" Brian explains. "It was a quiet proposal and I decided not to wear the ring" Alicia spoke. Between herself and Jason, it was hard to tell who was more excited about breaking the news to them. "Congratulations, this calls for a huge celebration," Jessica said and Jessica turned to her. "It sure does," she said in happiness. She waved to the waiter who walked briskly to them. "I have made an order with my reservation, you can begin to bring them

    Now it was the turn of every other person to look strange at Xavier and Jessica. "You owe me money," Leslie says facing her husband. "Wait what?" Jessica asked confused at the statement she made that followed hers. "We made a bet, I told him that you both were already so head over heels with each other and that very soon we might get tangible results" Jessica had not yet informed her girls that she and Xavier were now together. "Leslie I guess you have always been the smarter one," Xavier said eyeing his friend and personal assistant. "Congratulations Jason Jameson and Alicia Gates" "You do not need to be so formal, Xavier" Alicia replied. "And also my congratulations to you too. You both have surprised us so much it is hard to believe anyone" "You are the one who surprised us," Jason said pointing in their direction. "I thought you both could not stand the sight of each other but a baby?" he added. "Congratulations," Leslie said. Something inside her gave her a pang of jealou

    Leslie had finally left the bathroom after saying she was going to freshen up. She sat on the water closet seat for a long time before she opened up the cabinet and took a pregnancy test. She could not help but blame herself for not getting pregnant and hearing the news about Jessica made her feel all the more sad. She could not lie it was hard to be happy for her and she was trying her best. She opened up the test she bought a long time ago. Since she and Brian had decided to take the pressure off and trust the process she had stopped taking the test. She took the test and when she finally had to see the results she was shocked at the stick staring at her. She had to take a couple more of the test just be to sure. She stood beside the bed where her drunken husband was lying and sleeping so peacefully. She wondered how it was that he was okay with hearing about Jessica's pregnancy. She did not expect him to be sad but at least he should have shown some emotions. He just chatted awa

    Brian felt himself awake as the stick flashed before him. "What do you mean?" he asked. Suddenly the sleep he had been feeling all this while had left his eyes and he was now sober and awake. "I know only a doctor's test can confirm it but I took all the tests we have left and every single one came out positive," she told him. His hands went around her to wrap her in a hug. He signed in relief. He did not know what to expect but to hear her voice sound so joyful was almost a miracle to him. She has always had those down moments and days. "Brian?" she asked when he remained in the hug without uttering a single word. "I am so happy, my joy knows no bounds," he tells her as he tightens the hug. She wiggles in his embrace and waits for him to free her. His hands go to her face and he cups it in his. He kisses her whole face all over. "I love you" he whispered in between the kisses. "I love you more," she said with a giggle following the statement. "How did this.....?" he trailed of

    "Good morning," Xavier said as he walked into the kitchen and put his hand over Jessica's shoulders. She had regained her strength after receiving the words of reassurance from Xavier and the good news from Alicia that she decided to cook. "Good morning" she murmured again as she took in his scent. It was obvious that he had taken a shower just now because she could smell his aftershave and his cologne was stronger than when he had it on for a long. He pressed his lips on her ears where he could reach and left multiple kisses at once. "What are you doing out so early and on your feet?" "I thought to make breakfast for you," she said. The gesture touched him but he did not like her on feet while she was pregnant. "You can allow the house staff to do that, that is what they are here for, they get a salary every month but you do not allow do their money's worth. Or should I lay them off?" he asked. Even if he did not know much about Jessica as he would want to one thing he knew was

    "What?" she asked stunned. Up until now going to work while pregnant had not posed any problem why was he not allowing her to do anything? "I can not go to work?" she followed up with a question. "I want you to get as much rest as possible before the baby comes, you can hire a management specialist who would help with the restaurant for the time being""Would you also stop going to work?" she asked. "Why? Do you want me to stop?" he asked back. She sighed in annoyance because that was not the reaction she was expecting from him. She thought he would go on and on about how he was a man and deserved to be treated differently but here he was willing to stay home if she asked. "I am perfectly fine at work and I take occasional breaks to rest my legs whenever I feel tired," she tells him dropping her hands crossed across her chest and holding his hands. "I know you are fine. I do not doubt it but you are five months along already and you have four months to go I think you should get g

"Joshua you know I do not like being late for any of these events" Aletta screamed back at him. Altetta paced back and forth at the bottom of the stairs. "You know you should not be screaming while you are this pregnant"Joshua said as he came down the stairs with his daughter in his hands. "If you had come down earlier then I would have had no reason to scream that much" she retorted and he smiled. "It was my little pumpkin here who kept me waiting" Joshua replied as he got to stand b

    "I am so happy for you, this is finally happening," Aletta said holding the arms of Jeanne excited."I am excited but also nervous very nervous does anyone have calming pills?" Jeanne said slipping her hands off Aletta's hand and feeling the sweat on her palm."Calm down, it's just you and Thiago, everyone else is just like a rock. I promise you once you get on that altar every of that nervousness would be gone" Aletta continued. "Thank you," Jeanne said sarcastically."Are you nervous because its mu brother? I can help you run away from this right now" Nichole suggested and Alethea rolled her eyes. "Are all sisters this way? This was the same advice you gave Aletta the other day" Alethea said and Jeanne shook her head. "How can I leave, I have been dreaming of this day" Jeanne replied. "Then calm down even though I don't know why you would dream of marrying my brother but we all choose our battles I guess" Nichole shrugged as she sat down."Nichole" Aletta chastised because she k

    "You have to get to work" Aletta said rubbing the hand of Joshua gently. They had arrived back from their honeymoon over the weekend and this Monday morning was the first time Joshua was going back to work after the wedding."Can't I just lay down here with you all day?" he said taking out her hand and pulling her down to his level."You kept saying that and prolonged the honeymoon by two weeks,""Call me a criminal for wanting to spend time with my wife, I am getting the feeling that you do not want to spend any time with me" Joshua said opening one eye and giving her a judging look. "Joshua, you know that is not true, so get up now""You are no longer my assistant, you are supposed to be begging me to stay a bit more with you""What makes you think I don't want to do that?" Aletta asked taking his dishevelled morning hair back from his face."Because you keep urging me to get back to work so quickly, it's like you can't wait to get rid of me" Joshua took his head back to the pillow

    "Mom don't cry again, you might get a serious headache at this rate," Aletta said rubbing the back of her mother while in a hug. The entire wedding was over already and the whole family was seeing the couple off as they were going directly to the airport for their honeymoon. "Come on, at this rate they might miss their flight" Leon said trying to pull Eunice off her daughter. She had been bawling the entire ceremony, if someone saw her they would think it was a sad occasion. "My daughter," Eunice said as she finally pulled away and took a step back. "I am so happy and so proud of you because you managed or find love for yourself even after everything" Eunice sniffled and smiled. "Thank you, Mom," Aletta said with a smile. "You better get going now" Jessica said stepping forward."We are on our way now" Joshua said pulling open the door and gesturing for Aletta to get in."Call us when you get there" Jessica called after the shut door."Do not call us" Xavier said as if he was giv

    "I was always unsure about how I felt about you, You were always around me, taking care of me and I felt anxious whenever you were out of sight. A little secret that was the reason I always made you work overtime even when it was not necessary" Joshua said and there was a burst of small laughter across the room.They were both standing in from of the priest and altar but they had decided to take their custom written vows there. Joshua cleared his throat and looked up from his paper to stare at Aletta whose eyes never left his face. He flashed a small warm mile to her and she returned it."I never realized my feelings for you until you made that drunken confession that night that caused us to go into a relationship. I had always thought about marriage but for me, it was the only way for me to make children that would take over the company one day, being with you makes me so excited to think of waking up every morning with you by my side, I think of planting kisses on your lips and spend

    "Are you feeling nervous?" Alethea asked Aletta who was sitting in the waiting room with her shaky hands. "Yes I am, who wouldn't be?" Aletta asked as she closed her eyes to steady her breath. "I mean you are very right, who would like to marry my annoying brother, as much as I would like to call you my sister in law I can help you escape if you wish to" Jeanne chimed in. "Thank you so much for the suggestion, I am nervous about this and not rethinking my decision. I can't wait to be married to him" Aletta said as her eyes shot open. "Ew" Jeanne said as she gaged. " What do you see in him?" she added as she picked at her nails. "Everything I want to see" Aletta added. "Jeanne stop trying to put ideas in her head" Jessica cautioned coming towards them. "What did I do?" Jeanne whined."I heard what you said" Jessica replied giving Jeanne a warning look. Jesica knew that her daughter was playing around but she did not want Aletta taking any of the words to heart. "I know I have s

    "Mom's boyfriend would be here soon," Alethea said as she dropped the dish in her hand to the table. "I can not believe that I am being made to meet my mom's boyfriend at her age" "What I can not believe is that she can't order out but is making us to make food for him"Alethea whined as she moved back to the kitchen."What is even more crazy is that she is in a relationship again" Aletta exclaimed as she moved behind Alethea. "Don't get me wrong I guess I am glad she is finding love again" "Same here, if she is happy then there is no issue. Love is in the air" Aleteha added coming back to the table "So why don't you have anyone to share the love with?" Aletta asked. They were making the last trip from the kitchen to the table. "Says you? Who told you that I do not have someone to share this love with?" Alethea said dragging out her sentence and a weird smile climbing her face."Alethea you are hiding something from me" Aletta said going to clutch her sister's hand. "Spill now" sh

    Aletta and Joshua tried to reach Anette and Richard but it was as if they had fallen off the radar. "At least we tried" Aletta said as she set down the phone to the table. "Happy now?" Joshua asked and she nodded. "I guess I have to get going now" she said taking up her phone from the table."Where to? You just got here" Joshua was sad because they had finalized her resignation and she had not been around him like he wanted her to be. He was happy regardless that she was doing what she loved. "I have to go finalize things with HR on hiring your new assistant and then I have to go shopping with your mom and sister" Aletta explained. "Can we at least have dinner together?" Joshua asked and started expressing shock when he saw the expression on her face. "We can not? I barely see you anymore these days" he whined like a child who was cheated of having any ice cream. "I am having dinner with my family, mom is introducing her boyfriend to us today and honestly, I love spending time wi

    "Did you hear about Anette?" Aletta asked as she pushed the jar of pickles into the hands of Joshua. They had picked a date for the wedding and it was in three weeks. They were having one of the date nights where they stayed back home and cooked for each other. "What happened to her?" Joshua asked. Anette shook her head in bewilderment, how could this man be so oblivious to everything happening around him?"Have you seen her in a while?" Aletta asked. She wanted to know how much he did not know. "Well, since that day she came to our house, I did not think much of it when I did not see her again," Joshua said truthfully before taking off the lid of the jar. "But you know she called off her wedding and left the country so abruptly with Richard?" Aletta asked hoping that he at least knew about that fact. Yes, Anette did hurt them all but it would be too mean to not care about her when she had sincerely apologized."Maybe they did not want the wedding again?" Joshua asked shrugging. Al
