The sun rises quite late as it is winter season, snow quietly filled the streets, the roofs, and people started to clean up their driveway. Many people start their day early despite the cold. They started their morning with a greeting and smile plastered on their faces.

While in the GoKaria Technology Inc., Quality Department team 3,(Emilia's team) was busy preparing for a small farewell surprise for Emilia, noting that it is Emilia's last day in the office. The company's office hours start at 8:00 am and end at 12:00 pm, a lunch break for an hour and a half, and the office hours in the afternoon starts at 1:30 pm to 5:00 pm.

On this day, according to what Luisa had told them, today being the last day that Emilia would come to the company. She would only come to the office to give a few pointers for Rosabelle and say goodbye to her team, to Mr. Adams, and to Miss Klau.

The team bought gifts that they had planned weeks ago with Luisa. Denver brought white roses, while a white coat from Jules, white chocolates and a teddy bear from Rosabelle,  and white boots from Luisa, which was her reason as to why she volunteered to help Emilia to pack her things two weeks ago.

While the others are busy hiding their gifts from any minute from now, Emilia will be in the office, a figure came over, and it was their Department's manager, Miss Klau with a shopping bag in hand.

"Good morning Miss Klau." The team and Luisa greeted her. Miss Klau responded with a smile, and asked: "She's not here yet?"

Rosabelle who was standing close to Miss Klau smiled at her and shakes her head as an answer to Miss Klau's question.

"Is that so? hmm... that's good then. When she arrives, tell her to go straight to Gion's office first. I'll let you all free up your morning and resume your work after lunch."  Miss Klau said and bid her goodbye before heading to Gion's office. Rosabelle and the rest cheered up from the news.

Four hours prior...,

Emilia woke up from the pain on the side of her belly it is due to her expanding womb, also known as round ligament pains, headaches, and sore breasts which are said that it was one of the signs for a 15th-week of pregnancy. Emilia spends quite a lot of time standing up and freshen herself up before walking to the kitchen for her breakfast. Two days ago, Emilia was confronted by Luisa saying she was having a weird craving after witnessing Emilia eating a bar of white chocolate dipped with mayonnaise and garlic cream cheese.

Emilia decided to eat pasta and a boiled egg. She first prepared the ingredients and boiled water for the egg and salted water for the pasta, leaving it to cook for 8 to 10 minutes. She lit the fire and started grating the sharp white cheddar cheese measured to one-half cup, finely chopped the bacon, minced one clove of garlic, and lightly beaten two large eggs. Emilia put two eggs in the boiling water and checked if the pasta is ready. While waiting, Emilia took out fresh milk from her refrigerator and drink a cup of it before looking for an apple to eat.

"Where is my phone?" Emilia walks to her room to retrieve her phone and went back to the kitchen and turned off the heat for her boiling egg. She placed warm water in a ceramic bowl and place the boiled egg. Afterward, Emilia put olive oil in a skillet to heat. Add bacon and saute until it has rendered its fat and bits are crisp. Next, she added the garlic and saute it for a few seconds, and removed the skillet from the heat to set aside. She checked the pasta once again, and it was done. So she turned off the heat and drained the pasta before returning it to the pot. Emilia whisk the eggs and the cheddar cheese together and seasoned it with salt and pepper. later on, She thoroughly combined the pasta with the bacon, garlic, and oil, while stirring the pasta continuously, slowly pouring in the egg mixture, and turned the heat into low heat, until the eggs thicken into a sauce.

After cooking, Emilia set aside the dishes and put them away neatly. She called her moving company for the confirmation of the time they will set off later in the afternoon. Emilia's parents were already aware that she will be coming home while not telling them about her being pregnant.
