Evie lay on the bed, her stomach grumbling for food. Sighing in frustration, she picked up her phone and texted Doug: What's taking you so long? Please come home.
"Ring!" Doug's phone rang as he waited for Tiana to finish cooking in her restaurant. Whipping it out of his pocket, he replied to the person who had contacted him: Im sorry babe, there are not many shops open now. Luckily we got Tiana, but she's cooking right now and her restaurant is pretty far away :(
Evie sighed and put a hand on her stomach, before typing back: Its fine. Can i come? That way i can eat faster and see you faster
Doug chuckled and texted back: Sure. Love ya 💙
Soon, Evie had reached Tiana's and immediately ran out to Doug as soon as she saw him.
The bell on the doorframe rang out, causing Doug to turn around and stand up while Evie ran into his arms, giving him a kiss in the cheek.
"I missed you!" Evie exclaimed as he chuckled at the pregnancy hormones.
As if on cue, Tiana walked out of the kitchen with a large pot that was over-brimming with chilli and a towering stack of pancakes that were smothered with butter and syrup.
Evie's stomach grumbled for the umpteenth time and she licked her lips. Tiana laughed.
"Hello Tiana!" Evie chirped and Tiana returned the greeting with the same enthusiasm.
As Evie tucked in to the mouth watering food that gave of a bewitching aroma, the three chatted happily on the baby's welfare, life on the isle and Tiana's new godson, etcetera.
Not long after, the group finished off the conversation and parted ways, Doug and Evie taking separate cars that they had taken.
On the way home, Evie facetimed Doug. "Thanks Doug. For the food. Im sorry you had to go out there and-"
Doug chuckled. "Its nothing Princess."
