“Babe, the house is getting fixed, I’ve already began getting another assistant, gave more responsibilities to the other workers, you’re working less and less as you get closer to the due date. We saw the gang yesterday, we’ll see them again today, and you’re going to see your mother for breakfast on Sunday. And you don’t look like a semi, you look beautiful and gorgeous.” Shane couldn’t help but stating her mind…

“So I’m over reacting?” Carmen asks with her face contorted in disbelief. “I am going to Alice’s! You can go to hell!” Carmen gets up picks up her bag and storms out.

Shane sighs, going back upstairs to her bed for some much needed sleep.

That was approximately 3 hours ago. And now Carmen was standing there looking at Shane with a sad puppy look on her face.

“Baby, come here.” Shane lifts up the blanket for Carmen to join them on the bed.

“I’ve been such a bad wife!” Carmen weeps as soon as she’s burying her head into Shane’s neck.

Shane can’t help but chuckle, “No, you’ve been a perfect wife. You’re just going through a big change. I love you Carmen.” Shane kisses the top of Carmen’s head. “Let’s get you some rest, we got breakfast with your mom tomorrow.” Shane looked down to find her wife already sleeping.

Carmen ate her food at such an amazing rate that Alice was gawking at her, but then again, it’s Alice, her face may just always be like that. Shane was talking to Carmen’s mother while Mercedes laughed with large booming laughs. Carmen could see no tension from the visit they had 2 months ago…

-Flashback-

Today was the day that Shane and Carmen where going to have a private breakfast with Mercedes. And They were going to tell mami why she wasn’t the first to know.

“Shane you eat more! You look like a skeleton with skin. Cuando yo era nina mi madre siempre me dijo que al comer la comida rica, la vida se enriquecer.” [When I was young my mother always told me to eat great food, makes life rich.]
