Steph looked around the house, seeing all the beautiful decorations. They were too lovely and wanted to make her cry. She held it in and was just really happy. “It’s really beautiful right?” Lucy said and Steph nodded her head in agreement. Alex got into the living room also with the event planner.“Everything is ready, your guest should start arriving soon,” she said. “Thank you,” Alex said.The event planner went on to do other things leaving Alex and Steph alone.Steph turned to look at Alex.“Thank you to this,” She said.“It’s nothing,” he said.In a few minutes, all their friends started to arrive and the first to arrive was Mia.“I got this for you,” She said, handing over a gift to Steph.“You didn’t have to,” She said with a smile.“I wanted to,” Mia replied.Oliver came up to Mia and Steph while they had been talking.Steph pulled him in for a hug. “I am glad you could make it.”“I wouldn’t miss it for anything. I told you I would be here,” Oliver said and Steph smiled.
Steph stared into the mirror as she rubbed her tummy with her hands. The baby was 7 months today and she had just a few months left. The closer the months became, the scarier she was. She didn't want to make it seem like that but she was. Steph picked up her bag, ready to go out. She was going to Georgia's class. Georgia had given birth about a month ago and this was the first class she was having since that. Steph was excited to see her again and even though she wasn't looking forward to answering multiple questions from the rest of the lady about where and who her husband was.Steph was about to leave when she noticed the necklace that Alex had given her the other time. She had left it on the drawer and hardly put it on.She picked it up from where it was and went towards the mirror to put it on her neck. It was such a beautiful piece" she thought.She left her room but on her way down, she realized Alex's room was opened and she could see the letters on the floor. She was tem
Oliver entered into the car. He couldn't help but wonder what it was going to be about. He wasn't so familiar with them and even at the event, they had not really spoken, so he wondered what they wanted from him. Oliver sat at the back with both of them. He hadn't known that Luna and Frank were close and he had only even heard about Luna from when she and Mia were talking about her. "What's it you guys want from me," Oliver asked."Chill, we will speak. Don't rush. We will explain it all to you."Oliver began to wonder what it might have been about. "We know you like Steph," Luna stated.Oliver said nothing, wondering what she was trying to bring out from the conversation."What do you mean?" Oliver said, acting oblivious."We know you really like her and this whole thing with Alex, you're not in support of it. I know you have always liked her. She has always seen you had just a best friend but we know you have always liked her," Luna explained.Oliver wondered how they knew all
Oliver couldn’t get what he had done out of his head. He wanted so badly to convince himself that what he had done was good. Oliver didn’t want to think about it anymore has he was convincing himself that it was the best thing to do. Frank and Luna were happy that Oliver had agreed to be a part of their plan. “I told you that he would call back,” Frank said, putting down his phone on his chair.“What did he say?” Luna asked enthusiastically.“He said he would do it,” Frank confirmed.“Did you explain the details to him?”“Yes. I told him what his role his and how he is going to help us make it work.”“Do you think we can trust him?” Luna asked. She was still so skeptical about adding Oliver to the plan. She didn’t think it was so necessary. “We don’t have a choice at this point. He is the only one we have,” Frank said and Luna knew that he was right. They needed someone on the inside and Oliver was the only one who could help with the work.“What if he plays funny and turns ag
Steph walked into the elevator at her work place. It was going to be her last working day today. She was both excited and a bit sad. She knew she was going to miss coming to work. Her boss had decided to give her the rest of the months off, since she was already entering her 8th month and would be due in less than two months. Steph was grateful for the kind of boss she had to work with and how nice she was.Steph stepped out of the elevator after it opened up at the floor she was going to. She walked to her boss's office to hand over the rest of the design for the fall collection because she was going to be out of work for a while. She was going to be taking 3 months after she delivers and wasn't sure when she would be back at work.She walked into her office. "Steph, it's so nice to see you, isn't your break starting already?" She asked. "Sit please," Steph sat on the chair opposite her and dropped her note pad on the table."I came to drop this off," Steph said and her boss
Steph and Mia were going to meet today and she couldn’t wait to tell her all that had been happening with her. Her life seemed so perfect at the moment and she wouldn’t want it any other way. Steph got to the bar at about 2pm. She walked in and realized there weren’t so many people around. It was always like that when it was in the afternoon. Steph walked over to where the front where she and Mia always sat by the bar. She figured Mia wasn’t there but saw Mark mixing drinks together for a customer there. “Hey Steph, been a while,” Mark said as Steph sat on one of the chairs. “Hey, missed this place,” Steph said.It had been a while since she had gone out there and she had just mostly been staying home and doing nothing.“We missed you too, how is the baby doing?” He asked.Steph smiled. “Good but how come no one ever asks how I am anymore and it’s just about the baby,” Mark smiled. “Don’t be jealous now. Wait till she comes out to meet all her fans waiting to meet h
Steph sat on the couch in the living room watching the remaining episodes of friends. She had nothing else to do and would only just sit home all day watching or reading something. Alex had gone to work and it was just her and Lucy at home. She had initially called Mia to come home to keep her company after she was done with work. Mia had promised that she would try, even though she had so much work to do. "Can I sit with you?" Steph turned in the direction of the voice and it was Lucy."Of course," Steph said and adjusted on the couch.She paused what she had been watching noticing that Lucy had something important to say to her. "Is everything okay?" Steph asked curiously."Yeah but I have something to tell you," Lucy said.Steph turned in her direction. "What's it?" She asked."You remember when I told you about my son?""Yes, I remember. You told me he was getting married.""The wedding is in the ending of the month.""Wow, that's amazing. Have you reached out to them?" St
Steph stared at her belly in front of the mirror in her room. She had only a few weeks left. About 3 weeks and the closer it got, the scarier she was about it. She was trying her best to keep her mind away from it by focusing on other things, it was the only way to keep her from being so anxious and to be able to pull through. Steph was meeting up with Mia at the mall, she wanted to get some new dresses and since Steph had nothing doing at home, she had offered to go with her. Steph went down and she had the driver went to the mall. Mia had texted her to meet at the food court at the mall. Steph got there just in time, only about few minutes after Mia got there. "Hey dear," Steph said to Mia and they both hugged."Now let's go shopping. I am excited," Steph said and Mia smiled."Staying home as really taken a toll on you.""How have you been coping by the way?" Mia asked."Trying not to go insane just staying him," Steph said.Mia laughed as they walked into their first sto
