I walk around the balcony looking at the different plants and the white sofa that will get dirty very easily but I'll clean it till I'm too pregnant to do that and then get someone to do that for me till I can do it again.

I get back in and close the door but leave the window open letting air in. I walk around the office looking at the different pictures and paintings. It's all so beautiful.

Right next to the glass door, there's a picture of me and Maria on the beach. I loved that day it was so nice out and I got a nice tan line. The next one is a painting of two women, it's very elegant and nice it also fits the colour scheme of the room.

The next is a painting of a female body figure, and it takes me a second to realise that it's my body. I smile softly at it, it's all cream colours and I love it. The next is a painting of me and Maria and I love it.

I walk to the desk and open the drawer and see everything is clean and organized making a happy feeling filled my body.

"Baby, food ready," Maria says coming into the office.

"Ok, I'll be there soon," I say and she leans in kisses me and walks away.

I look at the desk, it's so clean and organized, making my brain happy. On the desk there's a white iMac 24 M1, next to it there's a see-through glass with pens and a notebook in Infront of that.

It's all so clean and neat I love it. I walk out of the room and to the dining area.

I see Maria plating everything and laying it on the table. "Hey, babe," I state and hug her from behind.

"Hey bubs." She acknowledged. She leaves the plates and turns around in my arms hugging me back and kissing my forehead.

I left her alone and went to the table and sat down waiting for her.

She walks back to the table and lays our plates and sits down. We talk about stupid things and eat.

----------

After a very-needed nap with Maria, I get to the office and start building my business.

I take one of the pens in the glass and the notebook and write everything I need to work on.

I need an assistant to take calls and book stuff, next I need an Instagram account for my business and someone to manage that, I also need someone to go to the store and buy ingredients, and someone to clean after I finish making anything.

I write all of that down and I know some people that are looking for jobs so I send them emails and post on the account the different stuff I made throughout the time my work in the bakery.

After about an hour, I already have almost 1k followers and DMs asking when I open and if I'm looking for employees.

The people I sent emails to replied saying they'll do it and when we start. I send them the info and open an online business and put the link in the bio of the account. And with that, I make a list of all the stuff I need and send it to Ben, the guy that is going to buy it all.

I hired Ben who takes care of the shopping, Joey takes care of social media, Dominique as my assistant, and Cyrus cleans after me.

I give Joey the password to Instagram and the email address I made for the bakery.

All that took me an hour. I walk out of the office after cleaning everything and putting everything back in its place.

I step into the living room and I see Maria watching a movie with a drink in her hand. I walk to her and sit in her lap snuggling up to her chest. She wraps her empty hand around me and pulls me closer to her.

"What are you drinking?" I asked and laid my hand on my stomach.

"Bourbon." She answers and caresses my side. I hum.

I lay my head on her chest and listen to her heartbeat. She takes a sip and lays the empty cup on the coffee table.

"Did you finish all you had to do?" She asks.

"Mhm... And now I'm tired." I answer her and feel my eyes start to close.

"You woke up an hour ago." She laughs.

"Still... I'm tired... I'm living for 3." I argue and let sleep take over.

The next time my eyes open it's because Maria is shaking me awake. "Ughh... I want to sleep..." I whine.

"Aren't you hungry? I made your favourite." She teases holding her hand out for me.

I put both my hands up and make grabby hands towards her. She sighs but picks me up anyway.

She walks to the dining room and sits me on a stool at the bar and gives me my plate and a cup of water.

I take a fork and spin the spaghetti and take the bite to my mouth. Maria watches me as I take that bite.

The second I bite into it, I let out an embarrassingly loud moan. I blush but continue eating.

"That good? I'm glad." She sighs and walks behind me pulling me to her chest.

I finish eating and drink my water. "Shower?" She mumbles into my neck.

"Yeah, take me." I sigh feeling her lift me and take me to our bedroom for a shower.

She turns the faucet on and lets the water get to the right temperature as we strip off our clothes.

She cleans my hair and conditions it. She picks me up and I wrap my legs around her waist to do the same to her.

She then leathers a loofah with vanilla-scented body wash and cleans my skin. "You complete me..." She says kissing the skin on the back of my neck.

"You're my everything," I say back and rinse the soap off my skin. I then clean her skin too and we get out of the shower.
