Three months later...

Lena's POV

It's been a few months since we officially welcomed Reen into our family. We made her a nice bedroom and spoiled the hell out of her, and I think she was pretty happy about it. Stef went crazy about offering her the best of the best and she wasn't messing around with security and organic food and everything that she used to make fun of me for. Turns out Stef is an excellent mother, a mama tiger and there's no one who gonna mess with her little girl.

I think I fell even more in love with her since Reen came into our life, for seeing her so invested and motherly is something that makes me melt in a way I never imagine it would and I love her and her baby girl to death. I feel at home with them, and I'm happy... and so damn grateful.

With everything going on, Stef still managed to get her driving license and I think Marcus was the happiest of all of us. He was so damn scared to have Stef almost killing him at every corner of the road, yet, he was very patient and pedagogic and teach her everything she had to know and now she's an expert at driving, she wants to drive all the time, and she finally bought herself a brain new car, very family friendly, so much that I'm wondering if Reen didn't woke something within her for she can't stop talking about the future and children and all that and I can see the difference from before. She's happier, she smiles more, she jokes even more, and she's excited all the time, she can't stay still, and I love every bit of it.

Of course, Stef didn't slow down on her artwork. As planned before, we made up a big art studio for her with a nursery space now so that she can paint and have Reen close by. Sometimes I come join them and just sit there, to admire my beautiful girlfriend painting and Reen playing peacefully, asking for attention time to time which Stef and I give her gladly.

Her speech is getting better thankfully, and her first word was momma addressing to Stef which made her cry for hours, but it was cute and since we continue to encourage her to talk all the time and she can manage a few more words now. It's still in work and progress, but at least it's something, we'll keep an eye on it, but I think she will be fine.

I for one, is continuing to do my classes as usual, and of course Stef can't help but come visit me in my office on campus when she has her courses to try to seduce me, but I'm categoric, no sex at works no matter how tempting it is. I know she won't stop trying though, but I admit that I love it.

Today we are all free, so we decided to go picnic with Rosy and Stef invited Marcus who was a bit awkward, but I could tell he was touch by the gesture and he said yes which caused a lot of hugging from Stef which made him blush, which Stef loves a lot. I don't know why she clicks so much with Marcus, but she does and even if she annoys the hell out of him, he loves Stef just as much. Now not only does he have to deal with Stef, but he also has Reen glue to him, begging him to play with her every chance she gets, and the man can't even try to say no when he looks into those big hazel eyes that are so damn cute and he often end up doing the horse with Reen giggling like crazy on his back. No need to say that Stef is always watching this, laughing hysterically and so damn proud of her little baby driving Marcus crazy.

I admit that this house is much more joyful since Stef moved in. Even before Reen, Stef treats the employees like they are not employees, but friends and I admit that this is something that I do now, but that I didn't do before, I've always kept a distance except with Rosy and everything has always been pretty formal between me and my employees, even Marcus, but now... everything changed. I'm more open with them, I talk to them, and I listen to them, and I discovered things about them that I didn't know as simple as if they have children or not, just by simply asking them you know. I never was disrespectful to them, but I never was friendly either, but Stef is, and I can see them smile, like some for the first time... and I was like... God I live with those people, they serves me every damn day and I don't know anything about them, I didn't interest myself or anything like that... so now I make it a point to be more open, and talk to them and include them more. Sure, they are here to do a job, but that doesn't mean that it has to be so formal, that doesn't mean that once in while we can't have lunch all of us together and just have fun sometimes.
