EBONY
I squeal happily as I try on the new dress Zena had picked for me when she had gone shopping with Esmee. She sits on Mason and my bed, behind me, just as excited. The dress was a short, very slim-fitting, almost tight dress. I loved the navy blue color of it, casual yet sexy. I topped it off with a gold Africa necklace. Perfect.
Ebony's dress
I walk over to my mirror assessing my clothing. Something didn't seem right to me. Did I look fatter? Or? Was I bloated? I press my hand against my belly. I'm sure I'm only getting ahead of myself. My period should start in about two days. I can get suspicious then. I'm probably just bloated. But I want to be sure. "Zena come on let's go to the pharmacy."
We walked to the parking lot and hopped into my new Lamborghini. Courtesy of being the assistant of a billionaire. After our Honeymoon, Mason and I decided to move together into a new bigger house. Zena loved it here. She described it to be castle-like. We responded with "Well then you will always be our princess."
We settled into the car. And drove to the closest pharmacy, we could find. A Rite Aide. I went in and got a pregnancy test, not really feeling anything. I wasn't pregnant, I mean I'm not throwing up or feeling nauseous...or anything. I walked back to the car and drove back home.
When we got there another car was there. Not Masons or Esmees. My mother-in-law Ana. Who seemed to be coming around more and more. Physically and mentally. "Hola babies!". She greeted loudly from across the lawn. Zena ran towards her happily. I followed as well a smile making its way onto my face. I hugged her small frail body tightly. She hugged me back just the same. "Now, where is Mason?" She asked looking around.
I beckoned for her to follow me into the house. "Mason isn't here right now. He's at work, would you like some tea?" Ana was nodding before I could finish my sentence. "I also brought my special recipe with me for chocolate chip cookies!" she jiggled her purse and shopping bag. Swaying her hips. Zena laughed while joined in on Ana's chocolate chip cookie dance. I got the oven started and turned on the tea kettle. This was gonna be fun.

EBONY
Ana, Zena, and I sat in the movie room. All our senses paying attention to the movie "The Notebook" well not all. Our mouth and nose were enjoying the company of Ana's delicious cookies. "Ugh, these cookies are so good but I'm too full. They just melt on your tongue." I spoke a little sluggish to Ana. She laughed at my awkward position on the recliner. The movie was almost over when I feel a wave of nausea start to engulf me. I sit upright trying to get the uncomfortable feeling away but nothing gets better. Vomit starts to make its way up my esophagus.
I sit up abruptly and run to the closest bathroom. I barely make it before I'm spewing chunks of mushy cookies into the toilet. Instantly I break into a cold sweat. I'm cold yet my body is burning. My throat is hurting and I feel a headache coming on. I hear Ana and Zena standing behind me. "Hey, what's wrong?" Ana asked me, concern written on her face. I go to the sink to wash my mouth and my face. "I don't know I feel so sick." Zena and Ana follow behind me as I make my way upstairs to my room. I head to my bathroom and start to run myself a hot bath. " Should I bring you medicine?" Zena asked sweetly.
I shook my head. I probably just needed to take a hot bath and lay down.
Time-lapse: 30 mins
I'm heading to bed After taking a bath when I see a black plastic bag poking from the bathroom cupboard. The pregnancy test. I take a deep breath and open the cupboard. I guess I'm gonna take the test now. I take the test and set it to the side. I sat on the lid of the toilet. The anticipation was killing me. I felt my heart drop as I heard the beep of the pregnancy test. I felt tears prick at my eyes as I saw the test. I am pregnant. I started to laugh and then tears started running down my face. "Zena!" I call out loudly. Holding my stomach carefully. Zena comes inside the bathroom quickly looking scared. " Hey, baby it's nothing bad. I'm pregnant your gonna have a little sibling!" Zena comes over to me and holds me as I laugh and cry on the bathroom floor. Ana comes into the bathroom as well. Spots the test and gets the idea. She starts to cry.
I hear the front door open and then close. Mason. "Zena, Go get Mason." Zena dashes around the corner and seconds later Mason comes around the corner and into the bathroom. "Hey! Why are you on the floor? What's happened?" Mason asked a little concerned. I held out the pregnancy test to Mason. I watched as his eyes lit up. "you're pregnant?!" I nodded he came up to me and put his palm on my belly. Rubbing sweet little circles.
"So there's a Mini Ebony and Mason in here. Incredible." he gushed. I hugged Zena and Mason to my body. "I love y'all so so much, our little baby will be so happy and feel so loved." Mason and Zena murmured their agreement. "And little baby will love their Nana!" Ana exclaimed. "yes" I responded to her smiling tears in my eyes. I will continue to hold Zena no matter how old she gets. And Mason, I will always love and appreciate him. Forever and ever. And this little baby. will be loved and taken care of so they feel special and important.
