Buried Secrets || Sam Golbach

41.

Calista didn't hesitate to shake her head yes, tears now freely falling down her face as Sam stood up and wrapped his arms around her.

They could hear the cheers of their friends and family's laughter around them. It was something out of a movie.

Sam opened the box and placed the ring on Calista's finger before pulling her into another hug.

The two shared a kiss before Cindy and Kirk came over to hug and congratulate them.

After a few minutes of tears, Mariah spoke up.

"Alright, I think it's time we cut into these cakes. Before Calista and I start crying again" she laughed.

"Yeah I agree" Calista laughed.

The two couples grabbed their knives and started to cut the cakes.

"Mariah and Colby, you first" Jess smiled.

The crowd all shouted a count down.

The couple pulled up their slice and saw another slice of pink cake.

"OH MY GOD" Sam cheered with happiness as he pulled Calista into his arms.

The two friends also cheered them on, hugging them after Cindy finally let Calista and Sam go.

Calista looked to Sam "are you okay with this? I know you were hoping for a boy?"

"Are you kidding me? A miniature version of you? I'll take that over a mini me any day" he smiled and kissed her passionately.

The party continued on and everyone celebrated the two beautiful girls that were going to be born into two amazing sets of parents.

Nobody could've been happier.

A couple more weeks had passed and Calista was shopping at her favourite baking store picking up the baking ingredients to the baby shower snacks. She was doing the baking for one shower for Mariah. And then her own showers baking as well.

"Morning Jole" Calista said waving to the older woman, Jolene, who she had become very acquainted to for the past few months.

"Morning Calista, how are you and the baby doing today?" She smiled brightly.

"Oh ya know, just busy getting everything ready. Only 15 more weeks" Calista replied grabbing a small basket and starting her shopping.

The older woman walked over to her and stared at her for a moment before speaking.
