Wes's pov
Another month has passed.
Living with Mari and her parents isn't that bad.
Speaking of Mari, she's now six months along and the baby's started kicking.
Normally while Mari's asleep at night, I talk to the baby.
Since we're having a girl we're trying to discuss girl names.
"Leah?" I suggest.
"No" Mari replies.
"Rose"
"No"
"Jade?"
"No, that's not right"
"Ellie?"
"No"
"Jenny?"
"No...wait! What was that last one?" Mari asks suddenly.
"Jenny" I repeat.
"I like that one. It's perfect!" She squeals.
"Ok then. Jenny it is. You got any suggestions for a middle name?" I ask her.
"Yeah" She smiles.
"What you got?"
"Liv" She says.
"Where'd you get Liv from?" I ask.
"When I was in high school, I had a friend called Olivia. We did ballet together" She explains.
"Ok" I nod.
"Do you think she'll have my last name or yours?" Mari asks me.
"How does Jenny Liv Johnson sound?" I suggest.
"That sounds perfect" She replies, smiling.
"Just three more months to go" I state.
"Yeah. Then she'll be in our...Oh!" Mari exclaims, smile gone and holding her stomach.
I immediately jump up with a worried expression.
"Mari, baby?" I say, concerned and put my hand on her shoulder.
She then looks at me and smiles.
"She's kicking" She informs me.
I sigh in relief and smile.
She then grabs my hand and guides it to where the kick happened.
We wait for a few seconds then I feel it.
I smile even wider and put my forehead against Mari's.
Very soon we will have our daughter with us.
