Allison took a shower after waking up. They had travelled back home and she took the longest nap as though she hadn't slept in a while.

"You've been wanting to talk?.." Niles said, walking into their bedroom.

He was out all night after they got back, yet he was still getting ready for work.

"I want to work."

He looked at her with an eye brow raised.

"I don't want to stay at home anymore so I am going to work with you."

He kept his gaze.

She's pregnant for heaven's sake.

He thought.

And she wants to work? Why?

"You want to..work work?"

"I've worked all my life, what's that suppo-"

"Okay" He interjected.

"Okay?"

He nodded, she smiled and his own heart skipped a beat watching her.

"I have a meeting but I'll have Allon pick you up."

They stared at each other and she chuckled already thinking about Allon. He shook his head walking out rather not impressed that he was always the third person in a room with Allon. His own wife was in love with that man and he could not even kill him because he was somewhat important...to her.

Two hours later Neyra came to her bedroom to let her know that Allon was downstairs waiting.

"I think I look ordinary right?"

"You look like you're going to work." Neyra said with a laugh.

"Was this outfit always in your closet waiting?"

"Maybe" she said running her hand to her stomach.

They looked at each other briefly.

"I need something..."

"Okay?"

"Book me an appointment with a gynaecologist."

"Should I be worried?."

"No, no I just- Niles and I might start a family soon. I want to be..ready." She explained.

"I can do that, should I book a doctor's appointment for him as well. He still skips breakfast."

"No, he's just stressed. His doctor said he'd get better."

Neyra nodded walking out before she called her name.

"Don't tell him about this. It's not important, it's just another check up."

Neyra smiled, nodded and continued walking out.

Taking her handbag, she walked downstairs and took a deep breath before coming into sight with Allon. He had been facing the other way so she nudged him on his arm and peaked as he turned.

"Hey." She happily said holding her bag infront of her.

He looked at her smiling cutting the call.

"Mrs-

"Just Allison. Shall we?"

He nodded and she walked out first with security detail lining up.

"Ohw no, they're not coming with."

"Your husband-"

"Allon, I'm not Niles' wife out there. Maybe in the streets I am but I'm not planning on getting any special treatment at the office"
