Amanda laughed aloud at Kayla's surprised and happy half-squeal. Nathan's wife embraced the recently-married Mrs. Thomson tightly, and the hug was excitedly returned.
Of all the things that Kayla had anticipated Amanda wanting to talk about when she came over that afternoon, an upcoming baby hadn't been among them. After all the trouble that the young couple had experienced… no, a baby on the way had definitely been the farthest thing from her mind.
But as she released Amanda and looked into her sparkling eyes, Kayla realized that as happy and as excited as she was, no one was ever going to be as excited and thrilled about this little one as Amanda was. Because now, Kayla realized, David and Amanda had a chance to really, truly take another stab at square one and start raising a child together from the baby's beginning. And everyone knew that the next part of their story was going to be so much happier than the first time around.
And who wouldn't be happy about that?
This is a challenge that I was given via a writing improvement book that I'm going through, and will be three drabble-sized chapters. I hope you guys enjoyed it! Reviews would make my day!:)
