After ordering our drinks, I turned to Angela and, “Angela do you think you could start on a background check for Melanie?” Angela smiled, “Of course I can do it on my on my app for just a basic one if it’s just at the store. If she’s gonna be working at the store, we don’t need to go through all the Federal background check. Do you have her information?”I gave Angela the slip of paper that had Melanie’s information on it. I sat next to Angela and watched her work. I sighed, “I’m sorry for making you work. I just really want to get Melanie out of this state. I just have a really bad feeling. Not about her, but about her soon-to-be-ex.” Angela waved me off, “It literally only takes five minutes. Once that is done, we can have fun.” I smiled, “I agree.”When the report came back clean, I breathed a sigh of relief, “It’s clean! Let’s dance!” I stood up with Daniel, and he took my hand and started spinning me across the floor, “I want to show off my new wife tonight.” I giggled, “Are you

I spent the rest of the flight getting to know Melanie and what she would like to do with her life. She did reveal that she used to do a lot of wood crafting in high school and she missed it. I asked Jessie to come sit with us and turned to Melanie, “Here is my offer. I own an antique/craft store. I pick up old beaten-up items from flea markets and either restore or repurpose them to sell.“Jessie here is currently my only employee doing the restoring or repurposing. I would love it if you would join her. The position pays twenty dollars per hour, and you will get full benefits. We are also providing a house for you to live in. You don’t have to start paying the utilities until next month.”Melanie smiled as a tear fell from her eyes, “I would love that. It sounds perfect.” I smiled, “Then it looks like, Jessie, you are being promoted to production floor supervisor.” Jessie grinned a playful grin, “I can’t wait! We are going to have so much fun!” I smiled, “We try to have fun at work.

After finishing the house tour, we spent the rest of the afternoon shopping for furniture and everything else she would need for her new home. When we took her back home, she found that all the old furniture had been taken out and that bold accent wall was painted the same color as the rest of the walls.Not long after they reached the house the delivery truck was there with her new furniture. After showing the driver and where to put everything, Melanie decided she needed to go to the grocery store. I sighed, “Let’s work on just getting everything set up for tonight. You can go to the grocery store tomorrow; for tonight we’ll order in.” I ordered a pizza and when it was delivered, we all sat in the breakfast nook and just stared around at the improvements.I commented, “Melanie you really do have good taste in in décor. The furniture looks perfect in that living room space. Have you thought about going into interior design?” Melanie answered, “I never dared to dream about anything be

When Daniel and I pulled up to the clinic, Victor was waiting outside his car. When I got out of the car, I walked up to him and asked, “What the hell Victor? Why is Daya at your house?” Victor answered, “She started pounding on my door at one O’clock this morning. She was causing so much noise I was afraid that she was gonna cause somebody to call the police. So, I let her in just for the night. She’s supposed to be gone by the time I get home. We’ll see if that actually happens.”I looked at Victor and asked, “Do you really think she’s gonna do that? Just leave without a fight?” Victor answered, “She doesn’t have a choice. I will not risk my babies’ safety for her. She has to leave.” I countered, “Well I hate to break this to you, but she called me this morning, and I will tell you this: if she is not gone by the time our babies are born, they will not be coming to your place. I will not risk our babies’ safety so that you can be a part of their lives. If you want to see them, you w

Harley POVIt had been two weeks since we found out the sex of the babies, and I have been seriously wanting to start shopping for them. Daniel had agreed to go with me when I was ready, so I had started making a list of what we needed. We had a little bit of clothes for them, but I was ready to put some real color in their closet. Neutral colors cause people to guess the sex of the baby wrong. It ends up causing embarrassment for everyone.I was in the nursery with a notebook in one hand and a pen in the other when Daniel joined me, “Whatcha doing, love?” I smiled, “I’m ready to start buying some boy stuff for them. I’m making a list of all the stuff they need.” Daniel asked, “Mind if I come along?” I smiled, “I would love that, but I really don’t want to do it today. I would rather work on inventory for the studio today. I’m almost done with all the stock.”Daniel agreed, “That sounds good. I just heard from Victor. He’s still beating himself up for stressing you out that morning.”
