I continued to sniff at the Boston Terrier. It smelt so good! Almost like it just had a bath. I refused to listen to Vanessa.
"Oh dear, Im so sorry! Mr. Puggles isn't being very good today!" Vanessa said. She picked me up. Darn!
The little girl, who must have yelled 'Doggie!' laughed.
"It's ok! Plum isn't being very good either." A woman said.
"Look, mama! A doggie!" The little girl said.
"Sit!" Snapped the woman. Plum, who I suppose was the Boston Terrier, sat down. The little girl watched.
"Yes, Leslie, I see the dog. He's a pug." The woman replied to her daughter.
I stopped wagging my tail and walked over to Vanessa and Nathan. I sat down.
"Aww, cute! Would you two like to come over our house?" Vanessa asked.
"Oh, um, I suppose so. Little Lizzy's daddy shouldn't mind. We just have to get Plum bathed." The woman looked at Plum, who was laying on his back. The little girl, who's name was Lizzy or Leslie, was sitting on the ground, petting Plum.
"Ok! We'll go in with you!" Vanessa replied. The woman carried Lizzy/Leslie, and walked inside. Nathan, Vanessa, and I followed.

We walked out of the store. Vanessa decided to carry me, and the woman carried the girl. Nathan walked next to them. Once we got to our house, Nathan unlocked the door and we all walked in. Vanessa removed my harness and leash. I immediately ran to the food bowl and started eating a little bit of my breakfast.
When I came back, everyone was sitting down and talking. Except the little girl. I jumped on the couch and cuddled in Vanessa's lap. She removed my doggie clothes, which in my opinion, was a HUGE relief.
"Oh, and my name is Rosa. Im sorry for not giving my name out first thing!" The women said.
"Oh, that's ok. Im Vanessa." Vanessa said.
"And Im Nathan." Nathan replied.
"Cool! So, do you guys have any children?" Rosa asked.
"Nope." Nathan said.
"We're not even married." Vanessa added.
"Well, we will be getting married soon." Nathan added. Vanessa blushed.
"Oh! Well then, good luck for the future." Rosa said.
"Haha, thanks." Nathan replied.
"No problem. How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?" Rosa asked. Jeez, she asks a lot of questions..
"Im 23, and he's 26." Vanessa said.
"Ah. Im 28. Had my first child 4 years ago." She nodded at the little girl.
"Oh. You have more than one child?" Nathan asked. I looked at Vanessa once she was finished taking off my clothes. She was looking down. I could easily tell she was probably thinking about her and Nathan's future. Probably thinking about their children one day. She was now blushing very very hard.
"Yep. She's my first child," Rosa said as she picked up the girl, "Her name is Leslie, but we call her Lizzy. She's 4 years old. She also has a younger brother, too. His name is Carl. He's 2 years old. And now Im pregnant with the third child." Rosa finished.
"Whoa... Cool! Congratulations!" Vanessa said, getting out of her daydreams.
"Yea, congratulations! Do you know what sex it is yet?" Nathan asked.
Rosa shook her head. "Hahah thanks! And nope, not yet. Im only 3 months pregnant."
"Ah, ok." Nathan said.
Rosa played with Lizzy's hair.
"So, where do you live?" Vanessa questioned as she looked at Rosa's stomach.
"Around the block. 16 Fern Grass Lane." Rosa replied.
"Oh, that's not far. Not far at all!" Nathan said.
"Yup." Rosa said.
Oh, right! Her appearance! Well, Rosa was a very skinny girl with no curves whatsoever. No boobs, no butt. She had pale skin, and straight red hair. She had light colored eyebrows and small, thick lips. She had blue eyes. She was wearing a pink tank top with a brown leather jacket unzipped over it, black pants, and brown over-the-knee boots. From her skinny frame, it was easy to tell that she was pregnant.
Leslie had red hair too. Except she had brown eyes and her skin wasnt pale. She had a few freckles here and there. She was as skinny as her mom, with barely any body fat. Leslie was wearing a long sleeved black shirt that had a picture of a dog in white on it. I couldn't tell what breed it was. She was wearing bright yellow yoga pants and white sneakers.
A cell phone rang.
"Hello?" Rosa asked as she picked up the phone from her purse.
"Yes.. Oh, really? Ok. That was quick.." Rosa continued. She soon hung up and turned to Nathan and Vanessa.
"Well, thank you both so very much for letting is stay over. It was fantastic knowing you. Hope fully, you guys can come over some time. Apparently, my dog Plum is ready. So, I'll be picking him up now. Thank you thank you thank you." Rosa dug in her purse, took out a small piece of paper and a pen, and wrote down numbers.
"Here is my phone number. And here is my cell." She pointed at the two phone numbers written on the paper.
Vanessa smiled.
"Ok, thank you. I'll text you on your cell and give our numbers too, ok?" She said.
"Ok! Well. I'll be going. Great hanging out with you all!" Rosa said. She picked up Leslie, and walked out. Before she did, she turned around.
"What do you say, Lizzy?" She asked.
Leslie looked at everyone and smiled.
"Thank you!" She said. Vanessa and Nathan smiled. Rosa and Leslie then left.

Vanessa stretched.
"Well, that was fun." She said.
"Yep. And wow, three children." Nathan said.
"Almost three children." Vanessa corrected. Nathan smiled and rolled his eyes. I got up and sat on the floor, watching both of them.
"What?" Vanessa frowned, noticing his smile.
"I was just thinking that they had sex a lot and--"
"Nathan!!" Vanessa interrupted.
"Ok ok, fine." Nathan said.
"She's small." Nathan added a few seconds later.
"Hmm?"
"Rosa. She's quite small and very skinny." Nathan said.
"Yea, I know." Vanessa replied.
"How the hell is she going to produce another child in 6 months?"
"Stop it." Vanessa said and rolled her eyes.
"Ok, then. Fine. Im sorry." Nathan apologized.
"It's fine.." Vanessa said. She got up and walked into their room.
"Are you sure..?" Nathan asked.
"Yep! Im just gonna draw." Vanessa said.
"Ok.." Nathan layed down on the couch and picked me up.
"Your so tiny and cute.." He hummed. I licked his face. Vanessa placed an open sketch book with some needles, thread, pens, and pencils on the table and headed downstairs. She soon came up with tons and tons of folded fabrics in her hands. She placed those on the table and went downstairs again, this time coming up with a mannequin. She sat down with the mannequin in front of her and placed the opened sketchbook next to her. She left the pens and pencils on the table, and brought the fabrics, needles, and threads next to her as well.
I got off of Nathan and sat next to the couch, watching Vanessa. She grabbed an ivory and bash horiziontal stripped fabric, and wrapped it around the mannequin. She made sure it was a but loose, cut off the extra fabric, and began sewing. It didnt look like her frame at all. Especially considering her chest. She started cutting long, thick rectangle pieces of fabric, and glued them around the shoulder line. I continued to watch. Then, she grabbed the same fabric again. She cut a much thicker rectangle strip out, and wrapped it around the mannequin's body. I think she was making a dress. Vanessa grabbed her phone and dialed a number.
"Hello?" She said. I heard no one talking until Vanessa said, "Your dress is ready. You can come by anytime tonight or even late tomorrow... Yes.." A long time passed. "Ok.. Yes. Ok. Well, see you tomorrow then! Bye!" And then she hung up. Vanessa slowly removed the dress from the mannequin, then folded it up. She walked over to a drawer in the table-thing, then took out a fancy box. The box had a ton of flowers on them. She wrote down a name: Tara. She closed the box and put it back into the drawer. Vanessa sat on the couch again, flipped the page in her sketchbook, and continued making more things.

<><><><><><><><><><><>

About an hour or so later, Vanessa had already made about 6-10 things. I yawned my puppy yawn. I was getting tired, but at least I wasn't bored. She had made a long-sleeved salmon-pink crop top, white high waisted shorts, a matching bow, and put those in a box that said: Valerie. Then, she made an off-the-shoulder white shirt, black yoga pants, and put those in another box with the name: Jenny. Then Vanessa finally finished off by making a teal colored square pillow, then made the letter "L" on it. She stuffed the pillow and then put it in a box and wrote: Rosa-Leslie. She also made a few more phone calls, then finished for the night. She put her things away. I wonder if this is what Vanessa does for a living. Makes clothes at her own house. That sounds pretty cool. She went to her room, got into pajamas, and walked out. I watched her walk over to Nathan.
"Im going to bed, 'kay?" She said as she shook him, then walked back to her room. I followed, obviously, and sat down on her bed. Vanessa went under the covers and closed her eyes. I heard footsteps walk closer to the bed, then I realized it was Nathan. He got under the covers as well and kissed both Vanessa and I to bed.
