*Vanessa's p.o.v*

       ''Sabrina! Stay still'', I plead with my five year old daughter as I bathe her. She splashes the water to the face and giggles. She actually thinks it's funny.

''Oh God''. I sigh.

I grab a towel to dry my face. I kneel down in front of the bathtub again and pour shampoo onto my palm and rub it in Sabrina's hair. She plays with her pink little rubber duck. As soon as I'm done bathing her, she steps out of the bathtub and I wrap a pink fluffy towel around her body. I smile at her and she giggles.

Oh my precious Sabrina

Going into the bedroom, a put her favourite sundress on her. I sing to her as I curl up her black her. She giggles. Her giggles have become one of my favourite sounds. I love this girl with my whole being. Sabrina puts on her sandals. She reaches for my hand and we walk downstairs. We hear the front door open and shut, then the voice of my husband.
''Honey, I'm home!''

''Daddy!'' Sabrina squeals and I chuckle. She immediately starts running towards where her father's voice came from.

''Princess!'', I hear Raymond call out and then Sabrina giggling hysterically.

''I missed you so much!''

''I missed you too dad!'', she says between her little laughing fit.

Raymond walks into the kitchen and puts his arms around my waist. He kisses my neck.

''And how's my lovely wife doing?'', he asks. I turn around and smile. He looks too hot for a thirty-four year old man. Raymond catches me staring and grins.

''I'm good. Missed you though'', I say biting my lips. He kisses my forehead. I hug him.

                           * * *

''Aunty!'', Sabrina exclaims as Petra and Caleb walk through the door. She hugs her legs.

''Hey little angel'', Petra greets.

''Brina!'', Petra's six year old son squeals.

''Jules!'', Sabrina's excited voice reaches my ear.

Raymond and I make our way to the door. A wide smile spreads itself on my face when I see my friends talking and the kids running after each other.
''Hey! How are you doing?'', Petra questions. Caleb hugs Raymond before they begin chatting as well.

''I'm great. You?''

''I'm doing fine. Thank you''

''Want some coffee?'', I point to the kitchen.

''Yeah, thanks'', she replies. I nod my head before walking into the kitchen.

I put water into the kettle and turn on the stove before I set out the the ingredients needed. I grab a tray and four cups. I feel the cups and walk back into the living room.
''I made coffee'', I say to them. Once everyone has their cup of coffee, we walk into the backyard. We begin chatting about our lives in law school. I smile when I think about how we all met. In the beginning, I couldn't stand Raymond but I started liking him when he hugged me one night when I cried after I fought with Petra. Caleb always liked Petra but too much of a womanizer to confess. Then we all met again. I got married to Raymond five years ago and gave to Sabrina.
       I get knocked out of my trance when Raymond kisses my cheek. I turn around.

''What were you thinking about?''

''Just about everything... that has happened these couple of years'', I admit.

He nods, ''A lot has happened''

''Yes...''. I turn my attention to our guests to see Caleb chasing Julian and Sabrina. Petra watches them in amusement.

''I wouldn't change a thing'', I whisper.
Raymond puts his hand over mine and I look into his hazel eyes. ''I'm so glad I almost hit you with my car six years ago. I love you Nessa''

I kiss his lips. ''I love you too''

''Uh-oh!''

Oh no, what now?

''Woops, it looks like Sabrina had a little accident''. I close my eyes and groan inwardly. I turn around to see the little girl covered in mud.

''Someone please kill me now'', I facepalm myself as I'm about to stand up.

''Relax, I got this'', Raymond tells me and  kisses my cheek. I nod. He throws Sabrina over his shoulder and she giggles all the way up the stairs. I hear a thud and it's now time for Petra to groan as Julian is covered in mud. Caleb picks up his son.
Yes. I wouldn't change a thing.
