Chapter 68: The Talk

Aaron POV
Echo was born yesterday and I think that she's precious. There's going to be a conversation coming up with her birth though. It's the talk. It's the talk that started an argument between Roni and I. I knows it's coming, I'm just counting down the days. I'm going to ease into the conversation and make sure that I don't raise my voice and just voice my opinion with out arguing a point. If I don't do that and argument will start and there's no need for that. Plus I've think I've changed my mind so it won't be that hard of a talk.

We walk around all day just doing things around the house. No one really feels like going out because we all just want to see Echo's first couple of days. Alis comes by and meets Echo. Her, Alex, Adrian, and Addison who is now walking leave to hang out for the day. Rebel goes to Paul and Wendy's to give Kian and Nessa a break house along with Vi and Vinny. Nessa spends most of her time upstairs with Echo and Kian spend most of his time with both of them, so that leaves me and Roni. Alone. For the talk.

"I already know what's coming" Roni comes up to me and says. "I know that you don't want to have another kid yet and I'm here to say that I agree." I'm shocked that she changed her answer after she was so stubborn about it before.

"That's funny because I was going to say that I agree with you about not having another one." I sigh.

"Please don't let this be another argument" she begs.

"Don't worry, I completely respect your decision, just let me know when you are ready to have one because I've made up my mind on it and I don't think it's going to change." Though I am a little upset about her answer, I totally get it. She's busy, I'm busy. I have a lot going on and she has a lot going on. It's just that we're getting older and I just want another child. Don't get me wrong, I love Vi and Vinny and I would do anything for them. I would run to the ends of the the earth and die for them if I had to, It's just that having a child is such a great experience and having a big family is something Roni and I have always wanted. It was a pivotal point in our relationship talking about it and now that we've decided on how many kids we've want and we've seen that we're good parents I think we're ready, but it take two to tango so I'm going to have to wait. Now I see how it feels to be in Roni's shoes.

We move on from the situation with no hard feelings. I can still feel it lingering through the day though. The little bit of uncomfortableness when the talk about babies come out. We sort of ignore it. That's all you can really do. I don't know what this is so awkward for us. Maybe it's because we've barely had any disagreements, let alone a civil one.

I go to cook dinner because I'm not here for long and I want to help while I can. As I plate everything a hear Nessa start talking about babies.

"I wonder who's going to be next with kids." She says

"Yeah, I know we can't be the only who felt like they wanted another child." Kian says

"Uhhh I don't know about having kids right now. I love you and all Alex, but it's a little too early." Alis says. Her and Alex joined us for dinner tonight. Paul and Wendy were more that happy to watch Adrian and Asher too. They've always wanted a lot of grandkids, which brings me back to our topic.

"Don't worry because in cool on that too." Alex says. He does already have a handful.

"That leaves you Ronron. What's the tea?" Nessa asks. Roni and I both crane our necks to look at her and not make it obvious. We have been quiet the whole time.

"Well as soon as Aaron's movie is in the editing process and we have a good grip on the store, I'm down." She says. It kind of shocks me because of what she said earlier when I proposed the idea. I wish she had of said that earlier but it's no big deal.

"I just follow orders" I jokingly say. Roni looks at me with a fake stern look.

"Don't say it like that, you know you would love to have kids again." Alex says through digging into his food.

"I do but it's a lot of work. I warming up to the idea." I lie. I've been warm to the idea awhile before I just don't want to show that Roni got the best of me as she always seems to do. That's why our relationship works.

"They would be pretty cute judging by how Vi and Vinny look" Alis adds. She's always been super duper sweet to the kids, which we all appreciate. Roni looks at me and winks. The talk earlier wasn't clarified enough because it put my hopes down but now this playful conversation has gotten them back up. Hopefully it's not for nothing because I hate that feeling. Getting my hopes up and down is not something I enjoy.

I go to bed that night with a new understanding in Roni and I's relationship. Everything is all about timing and without the right timing nothing is going to work. Timing makes everything fit together and everything happens at a certain time for certain reasons. It's getting near the time that we needed to have the conversation. The talk was timed perfectly and I commend both of ourselves on that. I think that I have to learn timing for talks because this one seems like we both knew it was perfectly timed.
