A week  later, December 17 1991

Veronica was at the restaurant catching up on some administration work while Michael was making sure both the nursery at the ranch and the Pasedena house would be finished, the nursery would look the same at both places, the same mint green walls at both places, the same carpet and the two of each identical baby beds and diaper change tables too

"The idea is great tho, two identical rooms so the baby would always feel at home whether you guys stay in Pasedena or here" Bailey mentioned just as the last van with the professionals left the gate

"Veronica's idea, she really thinks of everything, I kinda forgot we needed to change the guestroom at the Pasedena house to a nursery" Michael mentioned

"That's because you guys been here twenty four seven for a month" Bailey mentioned "I mean I was in LA a few times to talk about new books and that blind date that was a disaster and I visited my parent's earlier this week" She added

"At their house in Bakersfield?" Michael asked

"Yes, they are planning to move tho" Bailey replied

"Move where? Somewhere in California or a different state like Florida?" Michael asked

"No, either New Zealand, Australia or Hawaii if they decide to stay in the USA" Bailey mentioned

"Why so far away?" Michael asked

"Because they met some couples on their travels and they live  either in Australia, New Zealand and Hawaii" Bailey answered "And the best part is they met those couples in Europe" She added

"When will they decide?" Michael asked

"Next week, they're discussing with their friends right now, like how everything went when they moved to their new place" Bailey replied

"That's a big decision to make" Michael mentioned

"Yes it is and Desmond is against them moving since it'll be hard for him to buy expensive tickets to those places with his bartender/ Assistant general manager salary and he hates flying" Bailey replied

"If he wants I could pay for his ticket, I mean he might not be my favorite person since he has a crush on my fiance but he's your brother and you're family to me" Michael mentioned

"Don't worry I already offered to pay for his tickets, and really he still is crushing on Veronica?" Bailey asked

"Yes he told her last week, if she felt like her baby daddy, that's how he refers to me, doesn't have time for her he will help her raise the baby" Michael shook his head

"Did he really say it like that?" Bailey asked

"Yes so I told him he doesn't have to worry about it since I'm not going anywhere without my soon to be wife and our child and future children" Michael answered

Meanwhile, Clarke's kitchen,

"Honey don't leave like that" Veronica heard behind her just as Desmond passed her, looking angry

"What is going on?" Veronica asked turning around, facing Mr and Mrs Cavalli, Desmond and Baileys parents both children obviously inherented the Red hair and green eyes from their mother since their father had blonde hair and blue eyes

"Sorry it's my fault, Samantha Cavalli, Desmond's mother and that's my husband Vince" Mrs Cavalli introduced herself while her husband looked like he saw a ghost before he shook his head
