2020-04-27 09:20:13As far as Stanley has unintentionally heard, there's no true relationship that doesn't have its own challenges. What matters is how the partners choose to deal with such challenge(s).
This was the first time Stanley has ever been in a genuine relationship and that being said, handling challenges may be quite new to him. The last thing he ever wants to do is to fuck things up or do something that will make him lose Lauren.
He really hoped that won't be the case with Lauren because he couldn't imagine spending the rest of his life without her by his side.
But still, Stanley was not understanding what was going on between himself and Lauren lately. As far as he remembered, he never did anything to hurt her feelings in any way and that kept him wondering what went wrong.
Stanley couldn't even concentrate on work. For the past twenty minutes, he has been trying to make sense of the first sentence

He was kind of like the son my mom never had and the brother Abby never had."The day I found out I was pregnant with Daniel's child was one of the best days of Daniel's life and my life too and the day I had a miscarriage was the worst day of my life.""A few weeks before I found out I was pregnant with Dan's child, things were not very rosy between us. He was being so distant and hardly hard time for me. But things went back to normal and became even better when I told him that I was expecting his child.""He loved me more, he became more possessive of me and to some extent, he became clingy just to make sure myself and the baby were alright.

As soon as Stanley shut the bathroom door behind him, Lauren began to undress. When she was in nothing but her panties, she turned to the mirror and took a glance at her body.The glance turned into a few minutes admiration of herself. Her face was puffy and a bit red which was expected because of all the tears she shed. She noticed she had lost a little bit of weight and lastly she caressed her still flat belly.She couldn't believe a little human was growing in her. Not just any little human but the one which is a product of She and Stanley's love; The man she loves more than anything in the world."Hi, peanut."

"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.

Despite Stanley's assurance that there was no need for Lauren to feel guilty about the way she told him of peanut's existence, Lauren sort of felt the need to make it up to him. This was Stanley's first time in experiencing fatherhood and she wanted to make each and every moment special.Stanley walked out of the bathroom in his usual nighttime attire. (his sweat pants and no shirt on)He smiled when he saw Wrenny standing in front of her dressing table. Though she was deep in thought, she had a proud smile on her face and was caressing her three months old bump. Something she had grown so fond of lately.Stan bridged the gap between himself and the love of his life, he circled his arms around her waist and kissed her right shoulder, bringing her out of her thoughts."What are you thinking about my love?" He whispered.Lauren turned around to face him. She wrapped her arms ar

The duo had talked about and predicted the gender. It turned out they were fine with peanut being a boy or a girl. A healthy baby is all that matters and what they pray for."Your palms are sweaty, " Lauren said to Stanley. They were both seated on one of the double couches in the reception and they had their hands intertwined.Stan chuckled, "I can't help it.""It's fine if you don't want us to know the gender today. We can wait until the baby is born." Lauren proposed.Stanley gave Lauren's hand a light squeeze. "There's no need for that. I want to find out peanut's gender as much as you want to.""I promise you I'm really excited. I guess I'm just a little overwhelmed becaus

Continuation....Stanley leaned closer to Lauren. "I want to introduce you to someone.""Okay?!" Wrenny answered, unsure."I never told you about him because he's a jerk, " Stanley said sincerely."And you still want to introduce me to him?" She asked.Stanley scratched the back of his neck. "Well, Despite the fact that he's a jerk, I'll say he's like the closest friend I have next to you, Anita and probably my parents.""He was my roomie in college and he runs his company in New York that's why we hardly see but we keep in touch. We have long calls or facetime whenever we are both free.""Jake is one hell of a womanizer.

"Babe, I think you should give buying me jewellery a pause. I have so many of them which makes it difficult for me to pick which one to wear whenever we have events to attend." Wrenny said to Stanley as he put her hair aside to hook her necklace for her.Stanley chuckled. "Wait till you see what I got you. I mean as your wedding gift."Stanley!" Lauren groaned.He hooked her drop chain and gently twirled her around. Then he wrapped his arms around her waist."I can promise not to buy wristwatches again for myself but I can't promise that I'll pause or stop buying anything for you.""Any time you get confused about which one to wear on any outfit, just call me and I'll do the picking."Lauren heaved a sigh."Stan, You know I appreciate everything you surprise me with or buy for me."Stanley replied with a positive nod.

On weekdays, Lauren usually wakes up before Stanley. She would have read her Bible and prayed, picked out Stanley's outfit, reached out to the chef on what she and Stan wanted for breakfast, before waking Stanley up at 6 by showering kisses all over his face.But that was not the case this morning as Lauren was a bit under the weather.Around 2 am in the morning, Stanley noticed Lauren was shivering while cuddling against him. The air conditioner was at a normal temperature and they were both properly covered with a duvet.He panicked and felt her temperature with the back of his palm, he noticed her body was warm which was sort of a relief but he was still worried because she was shivering."Wrenny, my love." He shook her lightly."Babe?!" He called, before placing a kiss on the crown of her head.She tiredly opened her eyes.

Lauren heaved a huge sigh as soon as she approached the guest room that Stanley was. She knew he was there because that particular guest room was his next favourite room in his house after the master bedroom and peanut's room.It was as if Stanley had foreseen that there would be times he and Lauren would have a disagreement that would prompt them to stay in separate rooms so Stan made Lauren design that particular bedroom to his taste.Wrenny softly connected her fist against the door and knocked three times. She waited for a reply but heard nothing.Fresh tears welled up in her eyes again. In reality, she had started to have a headache because of how much she had cried but that was nothing compared to the pain she was feeling in her heart.
