May 10th 1992, a week before Veronica's official due date,
The past two months Veronica was still checking up on the staff and the guests at Clarke's kitchen but only doing the paperwork and chatting with guests here or there, she no longer helped the waitresses with serving tables or took over bar/ waiting shifts or helped out in the kitchen
"Hey, can I ask you something?" Bailey who was helping out at the restaurant more often now, to take over a few things from Veronica and to spend more time with her husband, asked
"Sure" Veronica replied saving the new workshedule for next month
"Are you working until your water breaks?" Bailey asked
"I'm not due until next week and it's my first child so who knows maybe I'm not even going into labor until a few days later, plenty of time to finish some last minute stuff here" Veronica answered
"But normally you take the last two month's off, to relax and prepare for the baby to arrive" Bailey mentioned
"I'm not good at the sit on the couch and wait until my water breaks stuff, I'd rather be here doing something to help others" Veronica replied
---- Meanwhile,
"You've to step out at one point you bitch" Charles the former chef of Clarke's kitchen mumbled from his hiding place while watching Veronica in the restaurant "This time I will succeed" He smirked polishing his brand new handgun

Later that day,
Michael went to pick Veronica up to have dinner with him and to also make sure she's not working too many hours with her pregnancy nearing the end
"I'm almost done" Veronica smiled and sweetly kissed her husband
"I ordered Italian, knowing you love it and you've been craving it lately" Michael mentioned holding her close
"Yes I've been craving tiramisu and pizza lately" Veronica replied
"Extra cheese and extra pepperoni, right?" Michael asked
"Yes" Veronica nodded and smiled at him "You know my cravings so well" She smiled and kissed him
"How's our little one doing today?" Michael asked placing his hand on her baby bump to feel the baby kick
"Still not wanting to meet to us" Veronica answered
"It's still a week too early" Michael reminded her
"I know, I'm just ready to meet our baby, nine months is a long time to wait" Veronica mentioned
"I know" Michael agreed
They made their way to the parking lot and were about to step outside when Veronica realized she forgot her purse
"I'll get it for you" Michael replied
"I've to use the restroom too, be right back" Veronica answered and turned around to make her way back to get her purse and use the restroom
"This child is partying on my bladder" Veronica sighed shaking her head when she came back with her purse "It's the tenth time today I had to make a run to the toilet"
"Are you sure it's not the amount of water and apple juice you drink?" Michael asked pushing the door open
"Could be both the baby and the apple juice" Veronica shrugged her shoulders while she stepped outside and dropped her purse, the handle broke
