One Day In Your Life

Little Shoes

I looked at the ground for a couple of minutes, just staring without saying anything.

Michael didn't mind and kept himself silent, even though he said it would be easy for us, deep inside he knew it wasn't that simple.

I sighed heavy and walked off into the bedroom.
Michael slowly followed me leaning himself against the doorframe as I started to pack some stuff into my bag.
"I hope you don't mind if I start packing", I mumbled grabbing some towels and shirts.
I looked over my shoulder seeing him chewing on his bottom lip, his eyes locked to my bag staring dead at it.
"No...", he murmur, "It's ok".

~ The Next Day ~

"I'd love to go out today, and buy something for this little dot growing inside you", Michael suddenly spoke, his eyes sparkled bright.
I turned around kicking the sheets off my face as he dropped the book down into his lap.
"What do you say Diane?".
"But we don't even know whether it'll be a boy or a girl", I said pushing a strain of hair behind my ear.
"We could buy something for both genders, like a raddle or a soft toy for example", he smiled.
"But I bet It'll be a cute little girl, looking as gorgeous as her beautiful mother", he added looking down at my body covered in the blankets.
"Oh Michael", I said rolling my eyes as the heat grew in my cheeks.
He simply chuckled as responds.
So I crawled out of the bed making my way to the bathroom where I took a quick shower.

As I took a glimps of myself in the mirror I knew that after this day nothing will be the same again.
Turning to the side so I could have a better look at my belly I softly stroke over it.
I found myself smiling, "In four years you'll see how amazing your daddy is, but for now we have to wait".
"Diane are you ready?", I heard Michael's voice from behind the door.
"Yep", I quickly answered, pulling the top over my head and down my hips as I left the bathroom switching off the lights.

I found Michael fully dressed and ready to leave standing right in front of me.
"Wow that was quick, don't you need to use the bathroom?", I asked looking up and down at him.
He was looking handsome. Just as always.
"No, I already did, right before you woke up", he smiled fixing his jacket.
"We're gonna eat something on our way, if that's ok", he spoke walking down the hall as we left the house.
"Yeah sure", I mumbled walking close up behind him.

On our way we drove past a Dunkin Donuts as Michael basically dragged me out of his car and shoved me into the store.
"No, Mickey", I protested.
"Don't you like donuts?", he asked as he pushed me through the door.
"Yes but I really don't want to eat any of them right now".
"I'd rather drink some cappuchino, or something", I added looking at the menu card that hang on the wall.
"Fine", he groaned sarcastically.
"I'm looking for seats, ok?", I said slightly touching his arm.
"Ok", he smiled as I walked off.

"So, here's your cappuchino ma'am", he said polite as he handed me the cup.
"Thanks", I took it and looked at the box he held in the other hand.
"Let me guess", I began, eyeing the box, "In there are several kind of donuts, with different colours and probably great taste, but just after finishing it you regret everything because you just spent a huge amount of money on them, am I right?", I chuckled.
"Jesus Diane, don't forget to breath between sentences", he shook his head as I poke him into the ribs.
"Hey don't make fun of me, you know that it's true", I giggled teasing him.
"But look", he said opening the box.
"This one is so cute", he smiled grabbing a donut that looked like a disc with the word Bad written in red jelly on it.
"A Mj donut", I chuckled, "That's nice".

As we finished our little so called 'Breakfast', we headed down the mall for the shop with baby stuff.
"Hey Michael?!", I called.
"Look at this cute little sweater", the smile grew big on my face as I showed it to him.
"Mommy's & Daddy's little sunshine, huh?", he laughed.
"That's cute, and it's green, so it fits a girl just as well as a boy", he grabbed the tiny sweater and smiled.
"Look what I also found", I giggled showing him a pair of shoes.
"No way", he cheered his face lighting up in happiness.
"Yeah, yeah you can go anywhere, there's not one place where you haven't set your mark, Michael", I chuckled raising my eyebrows.
His cheeks blushed a slight shade of red as he took the shoes, grinning while looking at them.
"They're so sweet", he mumbled.
It was a pair of black loafers in fake leather for a baby, just the same one's that Michael wear for his dancing.

We had spent almost two hours in this shop looking for the right stuff as we ended up buying more than enough for at least ten babys.
He took my hand as we left the mall walking back to the car.
"The day is almost over, you know", he spoke after a while.
"And I hope you enjoyed it as much as me...".
"Believe me, I did", I replied, "Each day is special and priceless with you by my side".
He stopped looking down at me, as tears were build up in his eyes.
"Please don't cry, for now I'm still here", I hugged him tight.
He cleared his throat as he embraced me as well.
"Promise me that I will archieve at least one e-mail per month from you", he said quite rubbing my back up and down.
"If you want I'll send you at least two", I giggled inhaling his scent.
"Oh Diane", he whispered against my hair.
