7pm
Emily had been waiting for The Book for hours now and in between, received a phone call from Miranda. The woman wanted an appointment early the following morning with the man that made the nursery for the babies.
Obviously the meeting meant she needed to cancel the schedule, for the week, not the day or the following day. She tried to ask Miranda but rule number one, no one was to ask the Editor-in-Chief. anything.
After the demanding phone call and following up with other calls, she was able to schedule the appointment with Philip the next day at 8 am at the townhouse.
Townhouse
Miranda had been quiet after the phone call to Emily. She simply didn't t know what to do. Andrea had been in the guest room for almost two hours, she locked herself in and said did not want to be disturbed at all, and that she would spend the night there.
This is the first big marital problem between them and Miranda has realized that it can be the first and last one. She can't let herself think that her marriage might have come to an end. Why? Because a nursery that she planned as beautiful as possible for the babies...her babies, their babies.
Two weeks ago Miranda asked Andrea if she still was not interested in knowing the sex of their babies . The enquiry had a purpose, since if they found out, she could ask for a more adequate nursery but the younger woman refused denied vehemently.
Flashback
"But darling, are you sure you don't want to know. It can help to plan things."
"Plan what? We have some stuff in yellow, others in white and in light green."
"Oh, do you mean: 12 long and short sleeve Golden Poppy bodysuits; the 8 white pants and the 20 Seafoam green singlets."
"Oh my God Miranda, stop counting it. It is going to drive me insane. We still have more time to buy stuff you know."
"Darling, baby clothes demand accurate number of the right clothes. For twins you need at least the double of everything and we haven't gone into this further yet."
"Miranda, we have plenty of time."
End of flashback
As Miranda walked into the nursery, she closed her eyes. She did not believe that Andrea had looked into the drawers below the cribs and the other places around, that are full of new clothes.
The nursery completed meant they did not need to worry about anything anymore and could just relax until the babies were born. Apparently, her actions were wrong and she might have lost not only her wife but their babies too.
Caroline and Cassidy came into the nursery and hugged their mother from behind. "Everything will be fine mom, give time to Andy. She will come around."
"Thanks Cassidy."
"She will. She loves you too much not to."
"Indeed Caroline. And I love her too."
Next morning
Miranda woke up before 7 am, having spent a restless night moving around her empty bed. The same happened with Andy in the guestroom and to the twins, not knowing what might really happen to their family.
On the ceiling of the nursery, Miranda had requested a sky full of clouds and stars, since Andrea had said to her it was the way her room was when she has been a child. So, the dragon demanded the same but at the walls, she wanted something she never had as a child.
In England it was very common, and she believe it still is, people love owls. When she was a child she asked her parents to do a owl tree in her room and that way she could look the animal every single day. First thing in the morning, last thing at the night.
The nursery wall is basically all Sapphire Blue and Cerulean, because the two colors remind her of Andrea. Only one wall is Sandy Taupe and that is the one that is her wall, the one of the owl tree.
Along the walls, two images of two animals that Caroline and Cassidy loved as toddlers, so the twins could be seen in that place too. A rabbit, Caroline's favourite animal and an elephant, Cassidy's favourite one.
Miranda had thought of anyone in the house, ensuring they would all be in that nursery room because she wanted the twins be loved from day one in there. But now she is in doubt of how much this affection could be interpreted wrongly. She should have had asked Andrea about what she wanted; and not be selfish.
As she reach the kitchen, her eyes immediately went to the floor. Andrea is there, eating something that Miranda believes be avocado and yogurt, one the things she's been craving for months now.
"Miranda, babe, look to me."
"I-I can't."
"I was upset, I am still. But I know you love us and I do forgive you if you forgive me."
"Indeed."
"Why did you decided to do everything and not ask me?"
"I didn't want you to be stressed with it. I remember how much I was, James never helped in anything about the nursery."
"I am not James."
"Indeed my love, you are not. But what I've done was wrong, and because of this Philip will be here soon to see the room and we will do the way you want to."
Months later: First day the babies spend in their new nursery
Andrea had a very easy labor. The twins, a girl and a boy, were born in less than six hours after the first contractions.
Alicia Justine and Marcus Andrew Sachs-Priestly are now resting in the nursery room. Not too many changes were made to the room, since the day the designer came in.
Basically all the furniture was kept, apart the cribs that Andrea wanted to be made from wood. So the man and this team made something special and unique. At the top of the cribs, was two baby mobiles, made by wood too, with stars. Near the cribs, on each side, not inside of them, because according Miranda it is to soon, are two small bears, one in schauss pink and the other in cerulean, made especially for the babies.
Andrea was sitting on one of the chairs with Alicia and Miranda was in the other one with Marcus. Caroline is reading a book to the babies and Cassidy was taking photos with her camera. Now they are truly a happy family.
