Antonio Deluca
"Hello, Antonio, "Abby's father said when he walked into the restaurant.
"Hello, Jakob, "I said patting him on the back as we pulled away from a hug "How was the flight ?"
"Good, Caught up on some business, "He said looking me in the eye"You want to marry my daughter huh?" He asked out of nowhere.
For as long as I've known Jakob, he's had a thing for being able to read people and figure them out by their appearance or actions. That's what makes him so damn good at his job.
"Huh?" I sputtered, choking on my water earning a deep chuckle from him.
"You're sweating bricks and look rather pale today, "he said tilting his head to the side."So you must be ready to ask for her hand in marriage."
"Yes sir, "I tell him getting straight to the point. "I know we haven't dated for the longest time but I guess that doesn't matter since we've been connected at the hip for the longest and I-"
"Antonio. "he interrupted "You've had my daughter's heart from a very young age and we've all know that this relationship was bound to happen."
"We trust you with our daughter and know that you know the consequences of what would happen if you ever hurt my daughter. "He was deadly serious" But more importantly, you're already family and we wouldn't want anyone else for our daughter because you know her better than anyone else. The love between you two is so pure and anyone can see it, so yes you have my blessing."he finished "just don't fuck shit up "
"Thank you, "I say, grateful that I asked him for her hand in marriage before proposing.
I didn't want Jakob to think that I didn't value is opinion or respect by just asking Abby to marry me out of the blue in front of everyone. Jakob has been one of the people I have respected and admired for as long as I have remembered so asking him for approval is important to me.
"So when do you plan on asking her? "He asked after we ordered and got settled with the food.
I told him about my plan to propose to her on Christmas, cliche I know, but it's the only time where our families are together as one.
"Hello, Lena, "Dr. Martin said as she entered the exam room."I'm Dr.Lydia Martin and I'll be your OB while you're here in L.A""It's Abigail please, "Abby said reaching her hand out to shake Dr.Martin's hand ."We've heard many things about you through Dr.Jackie "
"All good things I hope. "Dr. Lydia responded with a smile pushing her glasses up her nose before turning her attention to her clipboard. "Very good things "Abby responded shaking her head.
"Alright, Abigail," Dr. Martin said finishing up her assignments "Looks like you've had a healthy pregnancy so far with no complications, aches, or pains "
