Chapter 91

We were pregnant. I was already picturing her with a swollen belly and what our baby would look like. She was convinced we were having a boy but something told me that it was a girl. I don’t know what it was, but my intuition was just telling me that it was a little girl.

A mini Adie.

She would be the most gorgeous girl this world had ever seen. I knew that because her mother was the most stunning woman I had ever laid eyes on.

She would have the very best parts of Adic and the very best parts of me.

I had bought about twenty different books that explained pregnancy and how the birthing experience would be. I had already called in some of the county’s best OBGYNs. I wanted my baby and wife to have the very best that money could buy.

If I had it my way, she would be carried around and off her feet but she said that it would be ‘excessive’ Nothing was too excessive in my eyes when it came to my wife and baby. I needed them to be taken care of, no matter what it took

I made sure to lessen my workload and allow more time for Adie. I needed to be there when she needed me.

To say I was excited would be an understatement. I had been waiting for this moment for what seemed like a lifetime.

I hadn’t grown up in the best of households but now I got to create a healthy one with the woman I loved.
