5 months ago.

"You already have a baby bump." Joshua says.

"Of course! I'm pregnant." I response.

Ever since Joshua found out that I was pregnant, I was staying in his condo, it's been a long time and now I'm five months pregnant.

"What month will the gender be known?" He asks.

"It's okay now, but I plan when it's the sixth." I answered.

"You check up now, so we already know what's the gender of our child." He said.

"Don't be too excited, Shua." I response.

He just sighed and hugged me from the side, I knew he was even more eager for me but next month I will check up. I don't even know what gender our child will be, and the Lord will take care of what gender he will give us.

"But is that true, you will check up next month?" He asks to make him at ease.

"Yes, and you'll accompany me." I answered.

"Okay then, by the way, do you want to eat something?" - Joshua.

"Uhm, yes. I want some grapes." - Naomi.

"Okay then, I'll buy some grapes, just wait for me here." He said then went in to his room.

I just nodded and I'm just watching TV now, since I don't have a work now because I'm pregnant. When Joshua came out of his room I looked at him, he was already carrying a body bag.

"Is your phone inside your bag?" I asks him.

"Yes of course don't worry, I'll be back after I'll buy you grapes." He answered.

"Maybe you buy more grapes, like before." I said.

"I didn't run out of it and then it rotted." I added.

"Don't worry, I won't buy plenty of grapes like before." He said.

"Good, okay then take care love." I said.

"Did you just call me love?" He asks.

"Yes, I called you love." I answered and hide my smirk when I look down.

"This is driving me nuts, I gotta go." He said.

"Take care." I said.

When Joshua came out I turned my attention back to watching TV, I really couldn't do anything so this was the only way to get rid of my boredom. I turned off the TV and picked up my phone on Joshua’s living room mini-table, I played what I sang on the day of the singing contest, and the day my mother died.

"I never dreamed

'Cause I always thought that dreaming was for kids

Just a childish thing

And I could swear

Love was just a game that children play

And no more than a game

'Til I met you

I never knew what love was

'Til I met you

This feeling seems to grow more every day

I love you more each day

I believe you

I believe in every word that you say

I love you all the way

Now I can swear
