Legacy Of The Heart (UNEDITED)

Chapter 14 - Every Heart Sings A Song Incomplete

The song is The Matrimony by Wale ft Usher. Cheesy?? Yea I know but bleh; who cares....

A week later, Sarah got a reply from two out of the three firms she interviewed at and they both wanted her to start work as soon as possible.

Helen had moved out of their house when got her own apartment in Lombard Street, Russian hill which was approximately seven to ten minutes drive from Sarah and Brad's house. She had also heard from one of the firms she interviewed at and was very eager to start working.

Sarah decided to pick the firm that handled more of litigation than settling because she loved the rush that came with being in a courtroom, which sadly meant she wouldn't be working together with Helen.

Brad decided they had to celebrate her job appointment that evening; and she had news to share with Brad apart from the new job to which she hoped he would also be happy about.  

The dinner was at the Biminis twist restaurant in Arch street San Francisco, they served both American and seafood. She had never been here before but she knew it was one of the top best restaurants in San Francisco and wondered if he would still be in such a high festive mood after she shares her news. 

She knew Helen would be present but was surprised when they were taken to their reservation spot and she saw her family and Brad's family. She was both happy and nervous because the thought of sharing her second news just got more scary.

"What's going on? I thought this was meant to be a private dinner?" she asked.

"It was but they insisted they wanted to be here for this." Said Brad.

"For the celebration that I got a job?" she asked confused.

"Yes silly, what else would it be?" he teased and then he kissed her warmly just before they got to the table.

Her mum got up and hugged her, so did Brad's mum, they all seemed very happy, even her father was grinning and slapping Brad on the back hugging him.

"What's going on mum?" she asked still not convinced.

"We are just really happy for you dear" she said then kissed her cheek.

Ryan, Jules and Callie were grinning mischievously but they also said the same thing everyone said, they were happy for her.

She decided to relax and have fun then. They soon made their orders and her father toasted to her success and they all drank to her while waiting for their dinner. She chatted nonstop with Jules as she had missed out on a lot concerning her these past few weeks.

Their food soon arrived and as she opened her plate she gasped because she didn't see food in it but a ring with a glistening diamond stone embedded in green sapphires that shone just like her eyes with the engraving "Mine, always and forever".

Tears streamed down her cheeks and Brad immediately stood up and got down on one knee in front of her.

"You once told me that 'Every heart sings a song incomplete until another heart whispers back'. I didn't understand then until I realized that without you I don't feel complete. Sarah, please do me the honour of making me complete by being my wife" he asked.

She was fully crying now. "Yes, Yes Brad, always and forever".

He slipped the ring into her finger then drew her up and kissed her just as she jumped into his arms and the whole room erupted into applauds.

"I have another news" she said through tears. "I confirmed it this morning, I'm pregnant" she said and Brad swept her into another hug kissing her, then bent and kissed her tummy.

"I'm going to be a grandmother soon". She heard her mum saying behind her and she laughed tuning to hug her mum.

"Yes mum, you will". She says as they both hug each other.

"And I'll have a nephew to play games with" said Ryan grinning from ear to ear.

"She's going to be a girl and I'll spoil her with make up and fashion tips". Said Jules rolling her eyes at Ryan as if the thought of the baby being a male is just preposterous. And everyone bursts out laughing.

"It doesn't matter if it's a boy or girl. I'm just really happy for you two." Says Tara as she hugs both Sarah and Brad.

Her dad soon stands and hugs her too telling her how proud he is of everything she has become. With tears in her eyes she hugs him back thanking him for being the best dad ever.

"Welcome to the family officially son". Her dad says before engulfing Brad in a bear hug.

They all return to their seats and start eating and from time to time Sarah will look at her ring and smile.

*This is the happiest day of my life* she thinks to herself as she smiles again at her ring and unconsciously place her hand on her tummy.

Everyone was happy for them especially the mothers as they couldn't wait to see their grandchild. And Jules of course because she wanted someone to practice her makeovers skills on.

After dinner their parents returned to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel where they will be spending the night while Brad took her to the beach side and after walking around a bit they sat down looking over the water and the stars.

"Brad, I hope you are not angry about the baby" she started.

"Angry? Why would you think so, I can't wait to have little you running around the house" he said then kissed her again.

"It could be little you" she said smiling.

"Or both" he said with a cute grin.

"Definitely not" she said then pushed him down on the sand and got on top of him kissing him slightly.

The kiss soon turned more seductive and sensational and before they knew it they were tearing at each other's clothes seeking the release they were both craving. 

*************************

The following weeks were both stressful and fun for Sarah as she had to combine her work and her wedding plans. The wedding was set to be in early September since she was already pregnant so that she wouldn't be showing too much. She and Brad both joggled work, nuptial classes and dance lessons.

Candace and Tara were both around and shouldered most of the wedding plans, having hired a wedding planner. They took care of the flowers, cake, cuisine and decorations. They had decided the wedding will be in France and had flown out twice to meet with the priest that will conduct the wedding and to finalize the arrangements for the wedding.

Phew* Yea I know I'm such a romantic. I just can't help it.
I can't wait for their wedding in France though, I'm sure it will be grand and fun too.
Anyways let me know what you think.
Thanks *kisses*
