Chapter 4
The rest of the month followed a similar pattern. Dimitri and Agniya bonded in the mornings. Tasha joined us at lunch and left with Liss and Christian when Agniya napped. Dimitri and I made love every nap time. The three of us went to dinner every night. Things were perfect, until one morning when I woke up.
I bolted out of bed and into the bathroom, Dimitri hot on my heels and holding my hair while I emptied the contents of my stomach into the toilet.
"Roza?" I looked back over the month realizing I was two weeks late."
"Dimitri. I'm late, like two weeks late."
"You mean?"
"There's a test in the mirror cabinet above the sink."
He handed it over and when we looked after the time required passed it was positive.
"That's it! Decision made! I'm staying! For good Roza."
"Really?"
"Really."
"I let you go through this once without me. Once is one time too many."
"No arguments here comrade!" I threw myself into embrace.
"I love you Roza" he mumbled into my hair.
"I love you more!" I kissed his cheek.
"Mommy! Breakfast time! I know you're in there too Daddy!" Agniya called through the door.
"Coming!" we called back.
"When are we gonna tell her?" I asked,
"It'll be safest at three months."
"Okay" I smiled. "Baby number two- how do you feel?"
"Excited. Happy. Thrilled. Scared."
"Scared?"
"Yes, scared,"
"Why?"
"I don't know if I'm gonna be good enough. Or ready."
"Come on! You're ready. You're perfect with Agniya. You're ready."
"Really?" we left for the kitchen.
"Yes!"
"Thanks Roza" he kissed my temple. "Love you milaya."
"Straight back at you comrade!" we entered the kitchen.
"You two are awfully happy. What's up?" Liss asked, adding "and don't say nothing- I heard you this morning Rose" as a warning before I could answer.
"Fine" I huffed "BB2 is on its' way."
"Seriouslly? Already?"
"Impossible not to be with all those 'naps'."
"Point taken."
"Mommy? Daddy? What are you talking about?"
"You'll find out later baby."
"Okay Mommy."
