Chapter 28

Meryl was laying bed thinking. She looked at her clock to see what time it was. It read 6:20. Then she saw the date. Today was July 7. Brinley is 1 and a half today. She got really excited and was trying to think of how to celebrate when she suddenly, didn't feel good. She rushed to the bathroom and got sick, three times in a row. She sat in the bathroom waiting to see if she would get sick again but she started to feel a little better. Then she remembered that this was how her morning sickness went with Brinley. At first she was a little scared but then really excited. Sure she didn't know if that's what it really was but it still excited her. She gets in the shower and decides not tell Maks until she know for sure whether or not she is pregnant.

When she got out of the shower, Maks was in the kitchen with Brinley making breakfast.

"Good morning, Princess."

"Good morning Maks." She goes over and kisses him. Then she kisses Brinley and sit on the bar stool next to her.

"What do you have today?"

"I just need to go to the store. I need to pick up a few things."

"Ok. I have to go to the DWM studio for awhile today. I'm teaching two classes this morning. I should be home after 3pm."

"Oh fun."

"Alright, here is breakfast" he says as he lays her breakfast in front of her. "I have to get going. Call me if you need me ok?"

"Ok. Have fun. I love you." He bends down and kisses her.

"I love you too."

After breakfast, Meryl cleans up and then gets Brinley and herself dressed. They drive to the grocery store to pick up a few foods they need as well as a few pregnancy test.

At home, Meryl puts Brinley down for a nap and then puts the food away. She then grabs the pregnancy tests and goes to the bathroom to take them. She decides just to take one for now. She could always do another one another day. She takes the test and then set a timer. She paces around their bedroom and picks up some things that were on the floor. When the timer goes off she rushes over to the test to look at the results. It's positive. A huge smile grows on her face. She wants to scream out of excitement but does not want to wake Brinley up. She almost picked up her phone to call Maks but decides to wait until he comes home.

That turned out harder than she thought it would be. After lunch, time seemed to slow down. She just wanted him to come home so she could tell him. She cleaned the house, and made a dessert for later.

Finally Maks walked in the door at 3:30pm. She rushed over to him and hugs him.

"Hi Princess" he says and then kisses her head.

She takes his hand without saying a word and leads him upstairs.

"Mer, what going on?" She doesn't answer him. She leads him right into their bathroom and points to the test. He just looks at her. She smiles and points at it again. Finally Maks picks it up and reads it. "Really?"

"Really!"

"We're having a baby?"

"We're having a baby!" Maks pulls her into a tight hug and then kisses her long and hard.

"When did you find out?"

"This afternoon when you went to work. I got sick this morning and it reminded me of my morning sickness with Brinley so I went and bought some pregnancy tests and it came back positive. We still have to go to the doctor but..."
