Robert glanced over to me every other minute, it did absolutely nothing to calm my nerves which were flaring up inside of me.“I am fine.” I eventually snapped at him. “Stop looking.”He didn’t reply to it and instead grabbed his phone and started going through his emails. We were in the back of an expensive Rolls Royce, I didn’t even know Robert likes expensive cars. Though he is a billionaire, so it’s not that big of a surprise. We needed something to make a big entrance in and this car was definitely nothing but an eye catcher. Robert wore a black suit, with a dark blue tie. My dress was the exact same shade of navy blue. It was a satin dress that hugged tightly around my body and showed off my bump. I had even been given a blinged out diamond choker and diamond ear

“Oh for fucks sake.” I cursed, tiredly rubbing my temples. “Why can nothing ever go drama free for me?”I knew Liann’s family was rich, I knew that they were from around here. I vaguely remember her telling me her great grandfather invented some everyday item, and her grandfather and father just reinvested the money in startups and real estate. I would have never made the connection to what Robert had told me about Dennis Wright, I hadn’t even really bothered to google him. Maybe that was naive of me, I surely did curse myself for it now.“You know him?” Robert asked me, his eyes switching between me and Dennis. “He is Liann’s uncle,” I told him. Robert clearly didn’t remember who Liann was, so I quickly elaborated. “She is my sister in law. The demon.”“That didn’t come up on your background check.” Robert said. I couldn’t blame him for that comment. Him

Doctor Ward was always in a much better mood when Robert wasn’t here for my appointments. He even wore a funky tie today, with little green dinosaurs on them. Clara would love him, that’s for sure.“No pain,” I confirmed for him. “Outside of my back and my feet, of course.”He nodded and wrote it down, though I knew he must already know about all of this. I was still on a decently strict schedule to tell doctor Ward everything I felt in regards to the pregnancy. I think most of my messages never made it past the nurse, but they must be in my file at the very least.“We are slowly heading towards your due date.” Doctor Ward said as he was writing. “Nervous?”“Well, the possibility of horrible pain and death doesn’t really make me look forward to it.” I joked. Doctor Ward smiled and finished writing his sentence before putting the clipboard down. We were in the oh so familiar examination

No matter how angry she was with me before the pains started, Kiara put all of that aside when she noticed my discomfort. She was well aware of the pains of childbirth, as it was the reason that she put her plans of having a large family with multiple kids aside, so even though we were not sure if I was going into labour she was nothing but great at keeping calm.“Everything will be okay, Dalia, remember to take deep breaths.” She told me, occasionally glancing over at me. She had luckily driven to my place today, so there was no waiting time for a car to arrive nor did we need to call an ambulance. Kiara put the keys in the ignition and before I knew it we were off.I think we broke the speed limit more often than we stayed under it, but I could not bring myself to care. If we got a ticket Robert would have to pay for it, if we got pulled over by a cop they could very well join us and escort us to the hospital. The pain was still roaming around my body,

The powerpoint did not turn out to be so bad, in fact I quite enjoyed the many special effects and pictures she had used to illustrate why we should move in with Robert. I don’t think I got the point across that we would probably move back into our own place after the baby is born, but that was a worry for later. I messaged Kiara to try and make up with her, but she had not responded. I didn't even tell Robert that I had done that, because even though he wasn’t saying it, I knew he blamed Kiara for my lengthy hospital visit. Luckily for me, he was smart enough to keep that opinion to himself, and I just wanted my best friend back.His finger traced from my thigh to the curve of my hips and onto my ribs. Even with the fabric separating my skin from touching his, I still thoroughly enjoyed it when he touched me. His body was pressed against mine, my back against his front. We had fallen asleep like that and I always enjoyed it when he stayed in bed long enough f
