Chapter Eighteen - They couldn't wait
"Dad , you have no idea how much I've missed you." I told him.
"I missed you more. I dreamed about this day." Nathaniel said.
I smiled.
"You know , Jeremiah is a great guy. I'd be more than happy to walk you down the aisle."
"I love him so much dad."
Just thinking about Jeremiah, still give me the butterflies. I got it bad.
"I know you do baby girl. And I can tell he loves you by the way he talks about you." he said.
My phone started to vibrate inside of my pocket. Incoming call from Jeremiah.
I answered. "Hey honey."
"What's up baby. What you doing?" Jeremiah asked.
"I'm at the park. Walking with my dad."
"Kay, what I tell 'bout doing all that walking. You nine months pregnant. You could break labor at any time."
Jeremiah stay fussing, I swear.
"You hear me kay?" he asked.
I smacked my lips. "I hear ya."
"Me and the guys getting ready to go get fitted. Ya pops coming?"
"He'll be there."
"Okay. See you later babe. I love you."
I blushed. "I love you too."
I hung up. That man does something to me.
"Dad, Jeremiah and the guys are headed to get fitted for their tucks. And i think the girls are already at David's bridal." I told him.
"You sure you gon' be able to find a dress with that stomach?." Nathaniel asked.
I laughed. "I'm not getting a dress right now dad."
"See you later baby girl." he hugged me.
I hugged him back. "See you later."
Dad and I went our separate ways. I got into Jeremiah's white camaro and drove off. By the time I made it to David's bridal, the girls were already there.
"Sorry I'm late girls." I said as I sat down.
"You okay baby?" Kathy asked.
"You're the most beautiful pregnant lady I've ever seen." Sabrina said. Sabrina is Andre's girlfriend, Jeremiah's cousin. She's a pretty white girl.
"Ain't she though." Carroll smiled at me. Carroll is Patrick's wife, Jeremiah's best friend. They came all the way from Texas.
"You must be the bride?"
"Yes I am. But I'm not trying on anything today. Just the bridesmaids."
"Well, I'm the manager here. My name is Ms Stacey. Follow me ladies."
