NINI'S POV
"ricky! ricky!" i scream from the bedroom and i hear him rush from the stairs. He appears in our bedroom, his curls were all over the place. "what? what! are you alright?""yeah i am, don't worry." i respond and he sighs in relief, "god babe, you scared me! so what is it you want to tell me?"
i just wanted to tell you that i want to go baby shopping again!" i exclaim in an excited tone and ricky chuckles. i just love to shop, especially if it's for my first child.
"but nins." ricky starts as he sits next to me on the bed, squeezing my hand. "We just went baby shopping last month and we bought a lot."
i groan as i show him my phone, "yeah, but i just saw on this baby website a cute baby wearing this sunflower onesie and i want to buy one for our daughter. pleaseeee." i plead, giving him the puppy eyes, knowing he cannot resist them.
"if we leave now, we can do a lot of things, so go dress up." ricky tells me with a smile and i kiss his cheek, "love you. thank you."

we arrive at the mall and i squeal when we get out of the car. ricky holds my hand and smiles, "come on, let's go."
ricky and i went to the shop where they sold the onesie i wanted to buy for our baby, luckily it was on sale, so it made me want to purchase it even more. we suddenly found ourselves at various stores, buying more than what we expected. everytime, we would visit these said stores, we would get a lot of compliments from the attendees saying that we make a great couple and that our baby is going to be absolutely beautiful.

"here, let me help you." ricky suggests as he grabs the shopping bags from my hand. "thank you babe." i sigh in relief as i rub the back of his neck. i was so tired from the baby shopping that i just wanted to curl up in bed with him. although he had other plans.
as we were walking back to the parking lot of the mall, he spotted a bear shop and he insisted that we go. "please nins, this will be quick."
I smiled at him and agreed to go inside. after all, i begged him to come with me to the mall to go baby shopping. i wanted to at least return the favor, "god, you're such a child."
he starts laughing and we go inside the build a bear shop. ricky starts picking out what bear he wanted and he picks a white stuffed bear. i didn't even bother asking him why he picked that and instead, i just watched him looking all happy and giddy.
after customizing the bear with bows and glasses, we walk over to the counter to pay for the item. as soon as everything was settled, we left the store and headed to the car. "uh can i ask about the bear now?" i ask as he opens the passenger door for me. when we were settled inside the car, ricky brought out the bear, " i want to give this to our daughter as her second stuffed toy when she's born."
"what's the first stuffed toy then?" i ask him in a confused tone.
ricky starts chuckling. "franklin, the bear i got for you at the carnival back when we were teenagers. That bear is special since it has been with us through our relationship and i want our daughter to keep it.
i lean in to give him a kiss as i slip my fingers through his curls, "god, i love you so much."
