"Why does this feel like going to school all over again?" I asked Roux as I anxiously bounced my leg in this full parking lot.
Brooks decided to sign us up for a childbirth. At first I was ecsatic thinking it would be the perfect opportunity to not be too nervous about giving birth and taking care of my baby.
But now as I sit in the parking lot of the place I find myself nervous. Just like I was back at school I was worried about a lot of attention being on me. But this time it was even worse.
At my old school no one knew who I was. No glance at me know matter how much I thought people did, looking back at it no one cared.
Roux calmly still had his hand on my thigh and gave it a light squeeze. It would have had butterflies in my stomach if it wasn't for the nerves that took over.
Getting out of the car Roux went to my side opening the door for me to help me out.
If I could I would have stayed in the car and lied to brooks telling her that we went but something deep down told me that Roux wouldn't have let me.
The whole time Roux kept his hand on the small of my back and it helped me calm down a little as we made it in front of the office.
The door read "CHILDBIRTH 101" in black bold letters on the door. I Let out a heavy sigh as Roux pulled the door open for me.
Walking in we were met by a welcoming smile of what seems to be the instructor. She seemed to light up when she saw Roux and I walk in. "hii, You guys could have a seat right here.
She pointed at two chairs. "Since our last couple to arrive I want to start off by saying I am a mother of four myself and I know all of you might be a little nervous but I promise you at the end we will all feel like one family." she says as roux and I take our seats.
There were only three other couples in the class including one woman who was sitting by herself.
Everyone gazes were drawn to us but as I was so to realize it wasn't me they were looking at, It was Roux. I mean I would be looking at him two he is a 6'2 men with tattoos all over his arms.
"Even though this is childbirth classes we would not only cover childbirth but also childcare and everything else but before we get into those details, first everyone lets go around introducing your sleeves and tell me one of your main reasons you've decided to sign up for this class." She continues
I listened to everyone going. My attention was drawn to the girl across from roux and I. Unlike everyone else she was by herself and she looked to be on the younger side.
She was dressed in business casual clothing and the elegance and confidence executed from off of her. It was soon my turn and I stiffened a little as I said. " I am Rowan and Umm... I want to learn more so that when the times comes I will be more relaxed and not as worried or stress"
