[Anna's POV]

I was feeling depressed for some reason. There is one month until I'm due. It's June now. The sun was setting as pI walked around the block and saw our house come into view. I wore tennis shoes, shorts and a short sleeve tee shirt. I walked to the front door and went in. I heard Adam playing the piano and singing a song called 'Here's Hope'

Everywhere, everybody needs a neighbor

Showing up when times get hard

But there's friends of sons and daughters

Saying grace without supper in your backyard

Who doesn't wanna be a hero?

At least a little bit of helping out

There's something you're never gonna help or change

But hunger's something we can turn around

Here's hope (Here's hope)

Showing up at your front door

Here's hope (Here's hope)

Yeah what's everybody looking for

Here's your one chance to make a difference

Here's your one choice to give a helping hand

There's room at the table for more

Yeah here's hope.. Yeah here's hope

There's a small town girl in third grade

Making sure her sisters get enough

She sees her mama working two jobs

Worrying and crying, doing everything but giving up

If a miracle's a gift when you need it

Then it's time for stepping in

Here's to families and kids

Wherever you live

Never ever wondering again

Here's hope (Here's hope)

Showing up at your front door

Here's hope (Here's hope)

Yeah what's everybody looking for

Here's your one chance to make a difference

Here's your one choice to give a helping hand

There's room at the table for more

Yeah here's hope

Here's to going to bed not hungry

Here's to changing the story

Here's to bigger heart and brighter days

Let me hear you sing it for me

Let me hear you sing it for me

Here's hope (Here's hope)

Showing up at your front door

Here's hope (Here's hope)

Yeah what's everybody looking for

Here's your one chance to make a difference

Here's your one choice to give a helping hand

There's room at the table for more

Yeah here's hope (Here's hope)

Yeah here's hope (Here's hope)

Yeah here's hope (Here's hope)

Yeah here's hope (Here's hope)

Yeah here's hope

"Ain't that the truth," I said as I walked towards him.

Adam flinched and turned around. He looked at me and smiled.

"Hello."

"Hi," I replied as I grabbed his hand and dragged him to the kitchen. I looked at him," you get to make dinner tonight."

Adam smiled and made us dinner in an hour. We had Tacos. Then we talked about what it would be like to be parents. Next thing we knew we were laying in bed falling asleep.
