Moments later they arrived, Kayleigh dropped her pen on the ground when Valeria along with the child entered.

“What happened to this poor little creature” her mom gushed,

“We almost had her run-over mom, I’ll get her to the bathroom to get a shower” she started walking towards her room “Honey, wake up little one” Valeria said, the girl’s eyes fluttered open then started to cry again.

“Don’t leave me” she whispered, her arms hugging Valeria tightly around the neck.

“Okay, no let go, I can’t breathe” she said sweetly, the child loosened her grip and looked into Valeria’s eyes. “What’s your name?” she asked,

“I don’t have a name” she answered, Valeria’s heart dropped. What a poor child!

“Let’s name you…. Sasha! Do you like that?” she smiled. Sasha nodded her head slowly and smiled “Let’s get you a bath” she said then entered the bathroom; she turned the cool water on then removed her greasy t-shirt. She carefully placed Sasha inside the showed then poured enough amount of shampoo on her palm. She washed and rinse Sasha until she was squeaky clean! Sasha played with the bubbles and giggled when they popped “Pop! Pop! Pop!” came Valeria’s singsong voice along with a chuckle. She then pulled Sasha out of the tub and wrapped her in a fuzzy towel,

She rummaged through her old closet which contained her childhood clothes and dressed Sasha in it

“Do you like this?” she asked, raising a cute pink dress.
“I like it! I like it!” she cheered “It’s pretty” she said sweetly. Valeria smiled and slipped it on her,

“How old are you, little one?” she asked, while she zipped up the dress.

“I am 4 years old!” she jumped up and down, Valeria laughed and pulled a pair of tiny cute little pink shoes which she used to wear when she was about her age. Lucky for her she kept it,

“Sit down and let’s get this shoes in!” she said, Sasha jumped on her bed and landed on her butt, Valeria placed the shoes on her feet, which she was happy cause it fitted perfectly.

“You’re going to be a great mother” Kevin complimented, Valeria spun around to see everybody watching by the door, she smiled slightly and threw Sasha on her arms. “What’s your name?” he asked Sasha, approaching her slowly.

“I don’t have a name, but mommy said she’ll name me Sasha, is that okay with you daddy?” Kevin was shocked by the child’s words, calling him ‘daddy’ seemed new to him. Valeria shot him a warning look,

“T-that would” he cleared his throat “That would be amazing” he smiled, Sasha cheered,

“I have a name! Name! Name! Name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Sasha sang, Valeria and the others laughed,

“Kevin, Valeria! You should see this!” came Sam’s heavy breathing by the door. Still snuggling Sasha in her arms, Valeria and Kevin made their way to the living room. Sam threw a newspaper, magazine, and turned the television on. The local newspaper had a picture of Valeria and Kevin loading in his car, and Valeria snuggling Sasha into her arms. ‘Valeria, Prince Kevin’s girlfriend?! Has a soft spot on her heart for children’ is what’s written on the front page with bold letters. The magazine on the other hand, has a picture on the front page with Valeria and Kevin making out at the beach ‘Beach Love?’ is written and bold and yellow letters.

“Dear god! You we’re making out” Kayleigh gushed, covering her mouth with both of her hands, staring at the magazine with eyes wide opened. Valeria and Kevin flushed,

“I like some privacy” Valeria sighed, surely every ‘make out session’ with Kevin surely would attract the media’s attention.

“You’ll better get used to it” Kevin sighed and turned his attention to the television.

A man dressed in tuxedo appeared on the screen and cleared his throat,

“Sure you all would like some gossip!?” he smiled “Our camera has spotted the now ‘famous fashion designer’ Valeria FairHolm” he cleared his throat and fixed his necktie “MAKING OUT WITH THE PRINCE OF ARLANDIA!!!!” he gushed on the screen,

“OOOOOHHHH!” everyone gushed in the television,

“We caught our dearest prince on the beach, when Valeria showed up and jumped on his arms…. Then made out? How long had they been together?” a tape was rolling on the screen while the man talked,

“I think I learned my lesson” Valeria stood up and shut the television off, she spun around to see Mary with Seth had their jaws dropped on the ground and eyes widened, Mary’s hand was extended and loads of shopping bags dropped on the floor,

“AHHH! OH MY GOSH!” Mary squealed and ran to her best friend’s arms “You two are back?!” she squealed again but became calmer then sighed “Tomorrow night is the fashion show and the day after tomorrow I am going back home to Modesto” she slapped her forehead,

“Hey! Don’t worry about anything, I got an actual surprise for you tomorrow night” Seth smirked, gesturing her hand,

“What are you into now?” she whined and stomped her foot impatiently,

“Just wait, you’ll know soon” he smiled and caressed Mary’s cheek,


~4 hours later~
Kevin and Seth left Valeria’s home and strolled into the mall under their usual ‘disguises’ then searched all of the jewel stores,

“What are we looking for anyway” Seth pouted and stomped his foot on the ground,

“We are looking for an engagement ring, remember?” Kevin reminded, Seth nodded his head and scratched his nape “Why don’t you ask Mary to marry already? Since you will be duke when I am crowned king and we can specially have a double wedding” smirked Kevin,

“I guess she’s not ready” Seth sighed and slapped his forehead,

“Why don’t you ask her to marry then just… Marry her when your both ready?” Kevin suggested,

“I guess so” he shrugged,

“God! I found the perfect ring” he smiled and asked the saleslady to bring out and show it to them, she did as he requested and began to explain,

“I’ll take it, how much?” he pulled his wallet out,

“8,976 dollars, sir” she smiled, Kevin nodded and pulled the certain amount of money. The saleslady placed the ring in a case and handed it to Kevin,

“I think I might have chosen the right ring for Mary” Seth smirked

“Really which one?” Kevin smiled and looked where he was looking
