Amy's Pov

"There is another box," Mark said bringing it into the living room.

"We are going to look like a warehouse for Amazon with all of these boxes."

"I know, but she means well."

Mark opened the box and inside were more clothes.

"How is she getting the money for all of this!" I asked.

"She has it saved up, there is a note. She wants us to take a picture of them in each outfit and send them to her."

"That's going to take forever! We are going to have to take a picture of them every day, and sometimes they need to wear more than one outfit a day."

"Lots of pictures! On the plus side the nurse said that since you have followed the bed rest rules, we can get you to move around more."

"Yay! I am not going to be a couch potato."

"Tomorrow we will be able to get you to walk more."

"Once I can walk more normal, I will be able to help more. How much longer is your baby leave?"

"I have one week left, but the interview is tonight, she is going to come over and see if we are a candidate for this. If we pass then I will be able to be your giver and stay here."

"If we fail?"

"Then I need to figure out if I am going to stay with the game or quit and find a new job."

"Please, please we need to pass the interview." I started to cry, if we fail then Mark will leave me with two kids and I can't do that alone. I can't even take care of myself!

"Hey baby girl, everything is okay." He kneeled in front of holding my hand. "We will pass but if we don't then I will figure it out." He peppered my face with kisses making me giggle.

"When is she coming over?"

"A few hours."

"Is your mom still moving next door?"

"No! I talked her out of it. I love her but she will smother us!"

"She is already burying us with gifts."

"Speaking of gifts, she said this one is for us." He walked over and picked up a medium size box. He put it on the floor in front of me and opened it. "Oh geez."

"What is it?" I tried to peek over but it was hard to lay down.

"Mom thinks she is funny." He held up what looked to be a very short dress.

"Who is wearing that! It's too short!"

"It's for when we have sex."

I covered my face with my hands.

"Not going to lie, it will look better on you than me." I heard him putting it back in the box. "There are a few other things in here but I am not going to show them to you. They will be sent back to her."

He played with my hair then kissed the top of my head.

"Does she know?" I asked with my face still covered?

"Know what baby girl?"

"What happened to me with those sex Abominations toys?"

"No, I haven't told her any details of your past, just that you have been through hell."

"So, she wasn't being mean by sending those?" I peeked out a little.

"Oh heavens no! Mom adores you! More then she does to me. She was just trying to be funny."
