—I did a little time jump. Siani is now six months pregnant.
"What are you doing?" Chris spoke from behind me making me jump.
"Nothing." I quickly said closing Shy's purse.
"Baby," Chris yelled. "She's looking for the clues!"
Shy came running down the stairs. "Really Siani?"
"I just wanted to see something." I told her in a small voice.
She took her purse up. "If you guys wanted to know the sex of the baby then maybe you shouldn't have decided to do a gender reveal. You've waited six months, what's two more days?"
"Okay, can you just tell me what I'm having like right before the gender reveal? I'll act surprised." I tried to bargain.
"You're a mess." Chris laughed before Shy could answer me.
"Don't you have an interview to go and do?" I asked while giving him a dirty look.
"Mind your business." He plucked my nose making me smack his hand. "I'll see you later on baby." He kisses Shy on the lips.
"Okay babe. Be safe."
"Bye ugly." I waved.
"Ya mama and ya bald head granny." He flipped me off.
After Chris left out I turned to Shy. "Twins." She smirked.
"You're a damn lie." I chuckled.
"I just told you it's twins and in two more days you will see."
"Twins don't run in the family. It's triplets and higher."
"Yeah true, that's why I'm not having kids. Did you know that twins run in Chris' family on both sides?"
"Yeah." I nodded. "But you should be safe though because they usually skip generations."
"Not with my luck."
"True" I sighed before leaning back on her couch. "I'm happy for you Shy."
"Thanks Ni, he really makes me happy and Daddy approves of him. Plus he treats me like a queen. I don't want for anything with him."
"Awww that's good." I smiled. "Don't allow him to treat you less than."
"I just want to thank you for bringing him into my life."
"I would take the credit but thank Quan. If I didn't meet him then I wouldn't have ever met Chris and neither would you."
"I'm just so in love." She lay back on the couch and stared up at the ceiling.
"I understand boo. Just don't lose yourself in it."
"I won't." She looked my way.
"I'm serious Shy. I know I'm probably the last person who should say that but it's the truth. You can really lose yourself when you love a person and you'll do anything to please them even if it damages you. Trust and believe me when I say this to you because I'm speaking from experience."
"I hear you and I promise I won't."

"The Queen has arrived!" Jas announced as she entered my parents home with Khalil and Marcus in tow.
"My baby!" My mom pushed me to the side to get to her.
"Go ahead and beat the pregnant woman up." I mumbled before speaking to my nephew and Marcus.
"Look at my sister, pregnant and such. Are you sure it's just one baby?" She ran her hands over my belly.
Since I was now five months along, the baby was super active. They flipped a bit making me move her hands. "I'm pretty sure it's only one."
