"So he was the one who wanted to talk about it first?" 

You nod with a 'hum' in her reply mouth full of donuts. You explained every detail to Lisa about what happened yesterday at this morning and she was speechless after hearing all that. It took her some time to register every detail in her mind and she didn't stop talking about it since then. You could tell that she was worried.

It was already afternoon and you are currently at a cafe after doing some shopping. Well basically Lisa doing the shopping and you just accompany her all while. You just wondered if you two even came out to celebrate for you.

"That was a smart move. You both did a good job by talking about it," she says taking a sip of her coffee.

"I know."

"When do you join?" 

"He said tomorrow."

Your eyes dart to the side. Through the cafe window beside the table, you could see kids still playing around the park at this time. The cafe was inside a park which was not far from your apartment. You loved this place because it had a very peaceful environment. Sometimes when you had some free time you would come to this place with your sketchbook. You would always sit at this specific table beside the window which had a better view of the park and with a mug of coffee, you would work on your sketches occasionally watching kids playing around and having the best time of their lives.   

The sun is about to disappear. You watch as some of the mothers are trying to pick their children who are whining continuously not wanting to leave this little heaven and running away from their mothers and the mothers struggling to catch the kids. Your lips turn up into a smile at that.

"You know you don't have to do this if it's too much for you. Besides if you intend not to tell him the truth it will only make you feel apologetic, you do realize that right?"

"I'll be fine. Don't worry too much." You say passing her a reassuring look. 

You knew no matter how much you tell her she was not going to stop worrying. You knew the reason why she was insisting so much. She was afraid that you are going to get hurt eventually by seeing him up close. It wasn't that you didn't think about it but you shrugged it off. You were going to be fine as long as the baby was safe and sound with you.
