-ANASTASIA-This is the first time I am attending a rich party, one hosted by my husband himself. “Anastasia, James will take you and Helena to the party.” Maria told me when I came down to go. She gasped when she saw me making me blush. “Aww you look beautiful, Mr. Dominic will be shocked.”“I don’t think so but thank you Maria.” Smiling she nodded and went inside asking me to wait for a minute. The bag with the baby essentials were already in the car and even Helena was strapped to the car seat, I am excited to see her. I was told by the stylists that came today that Helena will be wearing something that matches my outfit.I don’t know why Nathan thinks a baby needs a stylist and even I didn’t but then I saw the work they had done to make me feel beautiful, I don’t think I will complain. Maria came out of her room with a gift in her hand.She held it out for me. “Is that

-ANASTASIA-‘Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your heart or burn down your house, you can never tell.’ Joan Crawford stated that some time ago. Joan probably has had the experience of warming and burning to comment like that. I believe that if you love someone any day of the year is perfect for expressing it, why do you have to allot a specific day for it. But then again this day gives many of us, shy ones the chance to let the person we have a crush on to know how we feel. I haven’t felt like that ever in my life. Celebrity crushes are one thing but real life is different.To be honest my love life is boring and I haven’t found my one yet. Love happens on its own which excites me in not knowing when and where it is going to happen. Am I going to find it next door? Or maybe in my roommate? My best friend? Time will only tell and I will let you guys know when I do fall in love. Until then Happy Valenti

-ANASTASIA-It has become a routine for me to take Helena with me to work in the mornings and sometimes Nathan takes the responsibility for the afternoon. I sauntered into the café near Nathan’s office to the girl taking the order. This place is far from where I work but I love the coffee here even it makes me take the longer distance.I read the nametag of the girl, Fiona. “Good morning.”She reciprocated my smile with hers... “What would you like to have?”“An espresso and blueberry muffin.” I couldn’t order anything for Helena since I didn’t know if Nathan would approve of me giving her milk from a café, he is very particular about the milk we give her. “Oh could I get some hot water for my baby’s milk?” She nodded and typed in the bill.I paid her and took a seat tugging Helena’s stroller to the front of me. She is asleep but when she wa

-ANASTASIA-“Thank you.” I took a sip from the wine and smiled. “Now what?” I certainly don’t think Helena is going to wake up again and in no way am I falling asleep here. He sipped the wine silently, he is not sleepy as well. “Want to play a game?”“Game?” He asked with a smirk. Nathan went over and switched off the light while I lit the lamp.“Do I have to define what a game is to you?” I mocked making him scoff. He sat back beside me and placed the bottle of wine on the center of the bed along with the glasses. He signaled with his hand to go on so I continued. “We could play truth or dare or else we can play 20 questions. I don’t know any other midnight games that are boring enough to make you sleepy again.”“Let’s do the questions one.” He suggested. A small grin came onto my face, this is our chance of knowing more about each other

-ANASTASIA-“So when are you coming here exactly?” I asked Adam as I tested the milk on my wrist. Not too hot, the perfect temperature. “See I am learning only your father fails to see that.” I whispered to a gazing Helena.“Tomorrow morning.” oops I almost forgot about him.I helped Helena with the bottle and then spoke. “Great you can stay here. Nathan won’t mind.” I hung up before he could object and then searched my contacts for Natalie’s number. It is time to confirm all that I have found out.“Hey Natalie, this is Anastasia. Your brother’s wife.” Starting with a light joke always helped me. She laughed and asked me about Helena and my health which surprisingly Nathan talked to her about.His change of demeanor is seriously starting to bother me and I haven’t yet decided whether it is good bother or bad. “Is something wrong?”
