A/N: Hello,you can skip if you want:)

Lately there isn't really much inspiration around me, so my updates are slacking and I just really wanted to apologize, because I don't want to update just for updating sake, I want you and I to enjoy it....You know, and to let you know I do appreciate every vote and comment....and yeah I have like a thousands things to say, but yeah. I summarized ;P

Get ready for pepper and hot sauce at the beginning and cupcakes and rainbows at the end. Tighten your sit belts;p

"Hey, hey, hey, it's okay. It's just us okay, shh......" Layla said holding her tight. The intense struggle for release lapsed.

Isama nodded."Good she's hearing me." Layla said with a sigh of relief.

Asaad now took Isama from Layla's hand, embracing her little figure. "Now, I want you to think about rainbows, sparkles and Umm...cupcakes?" Asaad said questioning what he just said.

"Asaad?" Her little but soar voice called.

"Hmm?.."

"Can I have the cupcakes?"

"It's late, and you just brushed your teeth."

"Well you're the one that got me thinking about it." Isama said receiving a deep chuckle from Asaad and a giggle from Layla.

Right then Layla's imagination ran wild, of their future child playing with Isama and Asaad coming home from work to embracing all of them.

"Well, I have no say in this, so Layla?" He said looking beside him.

"Well, don't make me the bad guy." Layla exclaimed earning a laugh from both of them.

****

"What? what do you mean she's on her way, we don't have anything!" Layla exclaimed.

"Wallah, she just called Bebe, I'm sorry you know I would've told you months before, I know all the chefs are not here today, but I can cook something so if she criticizes, it won't be as hurtful." Asaad said going to Layla who was in front of the gas cooker(Stove? I don't know feel free to comment the right one).

"Bebe I'm sorry."Asaad said wrapping his arms around her waist and placing his chin at the crook of her neck.

"It's okay, Bebe you don't need to apologize."Layla said turning to give him a peck on the cheek.

"You're gonna help right?"She asked wrapping her hand around his neck.

"Of course Bebe what ever you need."

****

The sound of the bell almost gave Layla a heart attack, the sound of her heart beating was as loud as an earth quake taking place.

Indistinct chatter was made and she finally found the courage to go downstairs. Everyone settled down, as they exchanged greetings with each other.

"Isama, come and greet mama." Asaad called to Isama that was mind-driven by play.

"Isama!"

"Na'am(yes?) I'm coming."

Isama greeted saying her Salam shyly, Mama flashed Isama a tight smile. She turned to Layla, "You have a child?" She said with no surprise.

"Isama you can go back and play." Asaad said to Isama. GROWN UP TALK. She nodded and quickly ran out to continue playing.

"Dama(of course) I knew it. I knew you had something to hide, marrying her in just three months, did you get her pregnant cause if you did there is no way,NO way! she's staying in this-" Nafisa started but was cut off, and the remaining of the words were there to strike a hole in Layla's heart, a hole that shall never be mended.
