There's something about hearing that you are pregnant that makes you start noticing changes in your body you never noticed before. Like how flawless your skin suddenly is or how there's suddenly a little bump in front or maybe none of your clothes fitting you. It was going to be an amazing journey for my husband and I such that we decided to make a video journal of the whole experience. I once suggested it to Aya but she didn't do it. Pregnancy is a beautiful thing that is meant to be cherished. We were back home and it was now August; the closer the wedding the more stressful the preps were. The wedding preps were a headache! There were mornings I woke up wanting to call off this whole wedding and just enjoy our birthday weekend as a family seeing that Iya and I share a birthday and Dae sharing his with Elizabeth. All our friends knew about the pregnancy and they were as happy as Dae and I were. I had a cute round bump that Iya always asked about, she was a curious little thing that one. Dae's morning sicknesses where still there; he avoided anything that smelled oily, I felt sorry for my husband shame because he loved fries but because pregnancy. Don't we all wish that this pregnancy thing worked like this for all of us whereby the woman carries the baby while the husband gets sick and deals with all the gruesome pregnancy jitters? Life was good basically and in a week I was going to be Mrs. Bess again except this time in front of all my friends and my babies growing inside me. My hubby and I were lying in bed, well his head was on my boobs. Says they cushiony now that I'm preggies

Him: do you think they can hear me?

Me: I don't know Bess... Talk to them and see

Him: hello my little angels. This is your daddy, the one and only sexy Damon Bess

I hit his head and laughed... My husband can be full of himself at times

Him: as I was saying before your jealous mother rudely interrupted me. This is your sexy father. Yes, I don't know you yet but I'm already excited about meeting you my little Besses. Life with you guys will be a joyful ride and I know for sure that we will be the best family we can be because your parents share a unique bond, one that doesn't just fall from the sky. Daddy loves you my little ones and I will always protect you at all times ok?! Now be good little angels and treat mummy well ok?! I love you

He said kissing my belly. I wiped those mini tears, Damon was the sweetest thing you guys.

Him: are you crying?

Me: no. There's just something in my eye

Him: try something else Bess

Me: do you blame me? You say the sweetest things wena Bess

Him: yeah well I invented this whole sweet nothing thingy you know

Me: really Bess?!

Him: where would you be without me thou?

Me: not married that's for sure

Him: hahaha hey! You blessed to have me Mrs. Bess

Me: hahaha yeah yeah whatever!

Him: but on the real thou. Where do you think we would be without each other?

Me: I don't know. I've never thought about it ey. I think I'd probably be furthering my studies in the states with a job I love, probably have a boyfriend or not... I just... I don't know Bess

I really didn't. I never really pictured life without Bess, he has become my life and I don't think I would have made it this far without him. He's been my everything. He is my drive, my muse and my pillar. I was truly blessed!

Me: where do you think you would be?

Him: if I hadn't met you?

Me: yes

Him: mm... Well for starters my father and I wouldn't be this tight, I would still be running away from those Sunday lunches with the family. I would probably be screwing anything that has a vagina and I'd definitely not have any morning sicknesses

I hit his shoulder. He was being mad!

Him: you asked me mos. Now as I was saying. I would still live in my bachelor pad and I'd probably be working for some other company or probably have moved elsewhere

One thing I've noticed about Damon is that despite anything and everything he values hard work. No matter what or how much he may have been wasting his life he knows that he needs to hustle and make something out of his life. Damon is success hungry, his father made him like that. He's always wanted to prove to his father that he can make it on his own and because of that he is success driven. One of the things I love about him. He wants nothing less than being successful which is what attracted me to him in the first place. There's nothing sexier than a man who wants to make something out of their life and actually work towards their dreams and goals.

Me: wow

Him: what?

Me: you amaze me you know that?

Him: yeah but I don't follow this time around

Me: you are success hungry

Him: hahaha you have completely lost me Bess

Me: ok look at it like this; no matter what the situation is you always want to succeed. You can be a rebel or party every weekend but you always get your work done in time

Him: because as a man you want to be able to provide for your family's needs and wants at all times. Look, the world doesn't owe any of us anything and just sitting and expecting the money to come to us rather than going out there to get it is just pure childishness. A man's job is to be a provider and a protector, the two go hand in hand together. What kind of man are you if you can't do those two?

Me: I see

Him: Every guy wants to settle down someday and what better way than to start now?

Me: and here I was thinking you just a spoilt brat that throws his money around

Him: hahaha yoh you made me work hard to get you Mrs. Me. I have never been rejected the way you rejected me, you even friend zoned me

Me: Hahahaha what can I say, you asked for it

Him: I offered to fix you your phone because I bumped into you

Me: sounded like you were throwing your money at me

Him: admit it. You overreacted. You thought I had other intentions

Me: yeah I did. You never know with you rich boys

He started tickling me. Suddenly tickling makes me horny like real bad and he knows it. Damon always found a moment for sex no matter where we are, what we are doing. He just made a moment for sex. I don't know, we were addicted to each other shame. We had GOOD sex and then just rested.
