I really enjoy my cooking class, I've even made a few friends. I guess you can say that me and my babies are a hit in this class. Jeremy realized I really like to cook, he would always volunteer me to help him in class. In a weeks time he taught me many new techniques, he talked my Gammy into letting me work with him in the mornings at her restaurant.

I've been with Gammy a month now and I finally feel free from what Chan did to me. I read online sometimes it would take years to overcome ordeals such as mine. Maybe it's because I've already been through a lot of hell already . Whatever the reason, I'm now doing something I really like.

Jeremy and I are prepping breakfast for tomorrow's early rush. "What will you name your babies? "

" I decided to not know what gender they are, so I'm not sure what names we'll use."

" You'll let him be a part of naming them?"

" Of course, they're his too. He actually suggested your name for his son's name. " I smile.

" Hmm," Jeremy grin, "Good choice. Have you taken any lamaze classes ."

I slipped the plastic covers over the bacon and hash brown carts and pushed them into the cooler. I walked back to my work station and started cleaning up.

" Why so many questions concerning pregnancy, you got somebody pregnant Mr . Black? " I giggled as I wiped down the counter tops.

" Actually yes." He didn't elaborate but I just needed to know.

" Was it your wife?" I washed the towel and rung it out.

" No, she was a one night stand. " he hesitantly admitted.

A warning bell went off in my head.

"How many times were you unfaithful to your wife? " I folded my arms defensively over my chest.

" Before you judge me, I want to explain I was at a bad point in my life. I couldn't tell up from down. I have been clean from cocaine for seven years and I am a good father. I do miss my wife, she was my everything. You know very few people get a chance to meet their other half. I did and I screwed up royally. "

We finish cleaning up and I helped a few of the workers prepare for the lunch rush. While I drove home I thought about what Jeremy said about meeting your other half. I knew without a doubt who my other half was but he chose not to believe me.

Since I was seven months, I had very little time before the babies would be born. So I decided to take lamaze, a child birthing class. Jeremy was too busy with the restaurant and his instructional classes to be a lamaze partner, so I called my dear old dad.

" Hi Daddy, how are you? "

" I'm good baby girl, how is everything your way?"

" Fine, Dad can I ask you for a favor? I need a partner for lamaze class. "

" Are you going to do them here in town?"

" Yes, I decided to come home until the babies are born."

"Sounds like a plan. When will the classes start? "

" Monday, I'm sorry it's a short notice. "

" Let me move some appointments around and I will see you on Monday. "

" Thank you so much Daddy. "

" Anything for my grands. See you then. Love you baby girl. "

" Love you too Daddy. "
