Enjoy(:

(Rose P.O.V)

"Mmm," I moaned as I put another forkful of Olena's homemade cornbread and chili with fresh cut veggies into my mouth.

"I told you, Roza!," Paul exclaimed. "Bakbushka has the best the kukuruznyy and chili in the whole wide world!" He spread out his arms.

I laughed, nodding my head. "You did tell me, Paul." This made a smile rise on his face.

Paul and I ate cornbread and chili at the dinner table while Olena cleaned the kitchen. Karolina and Sonja were at work and Dimitri was helping his friend Mark with his garden.

"Paul," Zoya said, coming to her brother's chair.

"Aa, Zoya," Paul responded in Russia since his sister doesn't know English or any other language.

"Mama," was all Zoya said.

"B aero," Paul answered, looking down at her. She frowned. Paul said something else to her, but I lost track.

I know a little bit of Russian, but I can't say a full sentence. I can pick out a few words here and there. I think Zoya is looking for Karolina. She was asleep when her mother went work.

"Mama," Zoya repeated wining.

"Zoya," Olena called. Zoya turned and ran to her Bakbushka. Olena picked the little five year old up and carried her up the stairs.

"She annoying," Paul huffed when they out of sight.

"Dimitri is annoying, but I still love him," I told him. Paul nodded his head as he took a drink of milk.

"Roza, you think I'm annoying?" Dimitri's voice scarred me as him step into the kitchen.

"Yourrrr bustedddd," Paul said, pointing his finger at me.

"Wanna keep that finger," I asked him.

"Yes, why?" he asked, looking at his finger then at me.

I just shrugged my shoulders, turning back to Dimitri. "How's Mark's garden?" I asked, trying to change the subject.

"It's getting there," he answered, grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge. "And Rose, you can't change the subject with me. You know that." I do know that. Hey, you can't say I didn't tried. "Where is everyone?"

"My mama is at work and so is Sonja," Paul answered, putting his plate into the sink.

"Olena and Zoya are up stairs," I finished, rinsing my plate off with warm water. "I don't know where Yeva is."

"At the store," Paul answered. "And Viktoria is at a friend's house working on a protect for school."

"Do you have any homework?" Dimitri asked his nephew.

"Some math and science, but my mama already helped me with them before she left," Paul told him. Dimitri nodded his head, taking another drink of water.

"Roza, how you feeling," Dimitri asked me, setting his water bottle down on the counter, wrapping his arms my waist, carefully not to squeeze my big stomach.

I smiled up at him. "I didn't wake up with morning sickness so I guess that's good." I wrapped my arms around his neck. "But I'm really tired and hungry."

"But you just ate," Paul exclaimed.

"Paul, when women are pregnant they're eating for two so they get really hungry," I told him.

Paul covered his face with his hands. "Women. I'll never understand them," he mumbled, before walking out of the kitchen and up the stairs to his room probably.

"Wanna go lay in bed," Dimitri whispered in my ear as he nibbles on my earlobe.

"Yes, but you need a shower first," I whispered back, laughing.

(Dimitri P.O.V)

After taking a quick shower, I went to my room. Laying in my childhood bed, looking around my room brings back memories of when my mom would read me western bedtime stories.

My best friend Ivan and I would have camp outs in here or we would play with my toys. My room looks the same as it did when I was a kid. Everything looks good and new and in the same place as before.

Looking over at my Roza who is fast asleep next to me. Being pregnant is taking a lot out of her. Last week we went to the town's medical center to get an ultrasound.

Rose didn't want to know the sex of our baby so the doctor wrote it on a piece of paper. When we got home, we gave the paper to my mom and told her we didn't want to know until our baby shower on Sunday. Karolina though it would be a good idea to have it on that day. No one is working or at school cause it's God's Day.

Everyone has been getting everything ready as Rose and I sit back and leave them to it. We try to help out, but they won't let us. So we just leave it to them. Feeling my heavy eyelids slowly close, I fell into a deep sleep.
