"You excited?" Stan asked as he took his eyes off the road for a second to take a glance at Lauren who was seated beside him, on the front passenger's seat.
"I don't know, Should I be?" She said shyly as she toyed with her fingers.
"There's nothing to be worried about babe. I'm sure this evening will be one of the best moments of my parents' life."
"You're carrying their grandchild which is one of the best surprises you can ever give them. Just be prepared because they are going to be all over you, fussing about peanut."
Lauren smiled and lovingly caressed her belly with her right hand.
Everyone who knew Lauren knew she had a perfectly flat stomach but she started noticing a bulge two days after her first Doctor's appointment.
She was beyond excited and had called Stanley to come see it. The duo were happy, knowing their baby was healthy and growing well.&nbs
