A few days later, all the girls were excited about the wedding which Ethan and I decided will be held on the 17th of July. As cringy as it sounded, this was the day when we first took our relationship to the next level.I already got the gowns for the bridesmaids. I just needed to invite them over and gave them their gifts.They were all already on their way, while I was preparing myself. Everything was already done and set to place. All I needed to d after this was....chose the wedding dress for myself.“Well, well, well. Do we have time or you can try to spare some?” Ethan says, grabbing me from behind and kissing my neck.“I don’t have time and I can’t spare it,” I say teasingly.“Too bad I’m not here to bargain,” he says and pushes me onto the couch, kissing my thighs, my stomach and the wet lips between my legs.“Eth-an! I ...I can’t... I..”“Are you sure?”“Anna, We’re here.” It was Mai’s voice. The girls were here.“Now I’m pretty sure.” Ethan stops in disappointment and helps

It was the day of the wedding. I was getting dressed with my bridesmaids. It was funny that I didn’t have any family left to attend to this loveliest day of my life. But I guess it was alright. I did have a family I chose.I slipped into my gown, and the makeup artist does the rest of the work.“You look so beautiful, Anna,” Hailey states, covering her mouth in appreciation and wiping off tears.“Thank you, Hailey. It means a lot.””So, nervous yet? Do you need to run? I can open that bathroom window for you if you’re having second thoughts.” Mai mocks me.”Oh, shut up. I’m not having second thoughts. In fact, I’ve never been so sure about anything else before. Ethan is the man that I love, and I do want to spend the rest of my life with him.””Uh uh, save this for the vows, sweety,” Stella reverts.“Hey, where are the ushers? We are supposed to be with them in 10 minutes!“ Jay asked.“They’re gonna be here soon. Don’t worry about it,” Hailey says.And finally, after a long chitchat,

After our sick honeymoon, which was both what I needed and fucked in health issues. We go back to California. The first meeting I had was with Mai.Ethan had to go to the office to do some stuff, so Mai came after her work. She came straight to our place and…”Okay, when was the last date?” She asks.I stay silent because it was fucking 2 weeks ago. It didn’t even come to my mind that there’s a natural way of your body telling you, you’re not fucking pregnant.My silence was enough to tell her it was a long time before I had my date.“Oh, Anna. Have you told Ethan yet?” Mai asks in a soothing tone.“No, not yet. And I fucking won’t till I’m not sure what to do about this situation.”“He deserves to know, Anna. He loves you. So it won’t be hard for him to listen to this if you’re okay.”“How can you be so sure, Mai? He’s Ethan fucking Cooper. Magazines declared him a fucking playboy billionaire humping bimbos for sport. This won’t be the life he needed right now. It’s too soon.”“Hell,

--4 months later--“Well, the good sign is the baby is safe and sound. Everything is A-okay,” said Doctor Bruno.“Oh, I...I can’t believe how happy I am to hear this, Doc.” I say.“I know you must be feeling overwhelmed. It’s good. But you should keep a good diet. I would recommend some procedures in case of cramps, and if you need anything else later in the future, please, feel free to contact me anytime.”“Thank you doc, we appreciate it,” I say, and Ethan helps me get up.“Ahem, Uh....Don’t you want to know the gender of the baby?”“You can tell this soon?” I ask Doc and look straight towards Ethan. He gave me a confused and excited look. Ethan wanted to know if the baby was a girl or a boy. He just wanted to be prepared for anyone.“I..I don’t think we should.” I say, and Ethan gives me a cranky look as if he were a child himself.“It’s alright. Many parents decide not to know the gender of the baby until the day of the delivery. It sure is a gift from god. And I’ve seen it go exc

I was only a few days before I go into labour. My moods were swinging like a cursed wheel. Always going around.Mai and the others held a small get-together for me. Ethan’s friends and all of mine were there. The small celebration was simple, yet so lovely. Some of Ethan’s friends, do have kids too. So it was nice being around there, before time.”I can’t believe I’m about to be an aunt, Anna. I’m so excited.” Mai says while jumping and clapping her hands.“Oh, trust me, I wasn’t sure about going through with it at first. But who am I to question the beauty of birth?”“You’re right, having a baby changes everything. Not to mention a massive load of spending expenses carefully, but I guess that won’t be a problem for you.”“Oh, yeah. Not because we don’t care about the expenses. Ethan and I decided to treat our daughter not too extra and not too low. We don’t want her to be raised like a spoiled kid of a billionaire daughter.“”Well, if you don’t spoil her, I will,” Hailey added, laugh
