Chapter
6
I was a nymphomaniac. I couldn't help it, damned hormones.
Afterthe last night Lester looked tired but happy. Today was our
wedding day. We took a shower together and when the water turned cold
we got out. My head was overrun with wicked thoughts of licking him
dry from top to bottom . But damn, we had no time we had to get
ready.
All the Merry Men were there. Tank was Lester's best man
and I had Mary Lou, Lula and Connie as my bride's maids. Angie was
our flower girl. Mary Alice couldn't do it. She had a broken leg.
Tried to jump over the fence because she thought she was a horse and
horses can jump
Mom and Grandma Mazur cried.
After our vows,
the priest told Lester he could kiss the bride. Lester gave me a
passionate kiss.
Now I was officially Mrs. Lester Santos. Nothing
bad happened, if the boys at the station lost her money, that wasn't
my fault.
We spent the weekend in Miami on the beach.
Monday
morning came so fast. When I went to my office my name was on the
door, "Mrs. Santos". Tears fell I couldn't help it, blame
that on the hormones, too.
I did my researches when I heard
voices. Could it be...?
Outside
Ranger's
POV
What's that supposed to mean, Mrs. Santos? Where is my Babe? I
knocked on the door and entered. There was my Babe, wait a
minute...
"Babe?"
"Ranger, you are back."
She
looked different. Happy, relaxed I couldn't describe it.
There was
a soft knock on the door and Tank and Lester entered.
"Hey
Boss"
"Explain!"
Tank told me what happened in
the last months and then Lester spoke.
"Boss we have to tell
you some important news."
He told me about their wedding last
week and Steph's pregnancy. I was stunned. That was nothing I would
have guessed.
I'm not mad, two of my best friends were happy. I
could never give Steph what she deserved, I knew that.
"Babe,
you never disappoint. I'm happy for both of you." I had to laugh
"But it's hard to imagine you two as parents."
Steph
looked relieved, hugged me and said thanks. Tank excused himself and
left.
"When will the baby be born?"
"Our due
date is Christmas."
"Only you Babe. Would you two eat
lunch with me?"
Lester looked at Steph and she nodded her
head. Lester wanted to show me his "home video" of the
baby.
I called Ella and told her I would have two guests over for
lunch.
2 1/2 hours later we were sitting in the living room. I
could see her little bump, she was beginning to show and she was
beautiful. That could have been my baby growing inside her.Ten
minutes later Ella brought our lunch.
We began eating and I looked
at Lester with a bemused face.
Steph looked up. "What, I'm
eating for two."
"Babe, you mixed all the food in the
bowl and on top is ketchup."
"I can't help it I'm
hungry." She ignored me, moaned and was concentrating on her
food.
Ella brought chocolate cake for dessert. Stephs face beamed
with joy. Bring her cake and she's in heaven.
