It took a few weeks for RJ to get back to normal life again. That meant I was back to working as well, with the establishment being temporarily closed in moderation of his rehabilitation schedule that meant I had some downtime for myself as well, to which I desperately needed. It gave me time to reflect on my life before The Blue Foxy, silently praising the blue foxy for being there when I needed a job the most.

As for RJ's scheduled therapy sessions every Monday, Wednesday and Friday that meant I had to open the restaurant every other day at the crack of dawn. Oh, how I hate waking up early.

After work Nate called, the sound of his voice releasing all the potential stress I'd be under, we would talk for hours or until my eyelid's begged for sleep. As for my love life, Nate and I were making it work.

I finally had someone to call mine, and vice versa on his part: With my stomach growing, it wasn't long till my everyday clothes started to feel more than tight. Oh the joys of being pregnant, I thought.

That night, even though exhaustion consumed me I did a Web search of the best maternity clothing shops in town. To my amazement there were quite a few to choose from. I narrowed it down to three, using the process of elimination- it was hard to do, because they were all so adorable, but some were out of my desired location.

I had wanted somewhere close to town, and quaint but the shop if I went there, had to sell a good if not better selection of maternity wear. Not to forget if I were to purchase something it would preferably be of excellent quality.

Not something you'd see in a sixties sitcom. I wasn't going to torture my child like that.

The boutique I settled for was a great find, it had everything I wanted and more, " Welcome to Baby Perfect, if there's anything I could help you find let me know my name's Kandy "

The cashier said, while she rung up a customer. She couldn't be more than eighteen if not older. " That will be fourteen dollars and eleven cents today ma'am" Kandy muttered as she reached for a bag. The customer gave the money offering her a Have a wonderful day greeting before leaving.

" Do you know what you're having?" Kandy muttered, her voice startling me. " Not yet although I've got a feeling. " I replied, suddenly feeling as if I am on fire. Kandy is a great conversationalist I thought very personable. Before I knew it we struck up a conversation about anything and everything. She told me how baby perfect is her own business, and how difficult It had been just to start your own establishment. Kandy is the definition of a talker.

Her small frame shadowed me as I browsed, telling me what I should get for the baby if I knew the gender

Grabbing pink outfits if I didn't. In her eyes girls are too sassy meaning the boys are the ultimate heartbreakers.

It was a good talk, but she yapped my ear off, I mean that in a good way..

At moon I was starving, giving in to my cravings I inhaled a chicken, cheese, basil, lattice, and pesto burrito from a place I haven't heard of but decided to try.

What was my verdict? It was delicious with tons of flavor, oh I forgot I had chips to but didn't eat those.

" Well hey there stranger, what brings you here?" My mother exclaimed when she opened the door.

" Haven't seen you in a couple of weeks, since finding out that Nate wanted to come by and talk.. Remember that day?"

" Yes, where you and Nate had to speak privately not including me in any of the conversation. Yes I remember.

I sighed. Had she really thought of that I thought as she brought me a glass of tea. " Mother it wasn't like we wouldn't include you.... It's just we needed to figure the whole thing out. Privately..

I sipped my tea. Gulping.

" But I have news "

" Nate and i.... are an item.

Her face lit up, " Oh that wonderful sweetheart, when and how?" She embraced me so tight, I thought I would ooze water.

" It's a long detailed story I don't want to talk about right now. "

I admitted. Before leaving and going home.
