And Sophia, "i love that sophia girl. she seems so nicee and funny and sweet! wow, i think she shud become the star of your story.

The next day Keely got up after Phil had already left.

She took a shower and grabbed her purse to go shopping with her new acquaintance, Sophia.

When she arrived at the coffee shop, Sophia was no where to be found. Keely ordered a cappuccino and sat down at a table in the back. About ten minutes later a voice called to her, "Oh! Yoo-hoo!" Keely looked up, it was Sophia.

"Hey!" Keely said smiling.

"You ready to go shopping?" Sophia was smiling from ear to ear. She had on a fashionable pink blouse and a pair of khakis. Keely wished that she could look that good in khakis, but she knew she couldn't pull them off like Sophia did.

"You bet cha!" Keely said.

They took a taxi to an upscale shopping district in Brooklyn. Keely's heart sank at the sight of the price tags of almost every item that looked good on her.

"Is something wrong? You haven't bought one thing today." Sophia said after counting to make sure she had all of her bags.

"Everything is just so expensive." Keely looked down at her feet feeling slightly ashamed.

Sophia was silenced with realization. She never really thought about how other people couldn't afford as nice luxuries as she could. "Tell you what. I'm going to buy you three new outfits today."

Keely wanted to burst out and thank her so many times. But she didn't want to take advantage of her new friendship. "Oh, no, I couldn't ask-"

"No worries!" Sophia interrupted.

"You really don't have to-"

"Think of it as a gift!" She interrupted again.

Keely pondered over this offer, "Well, ok."

"Fabulous!"

With her husband's money, Sophia helped Keely buy the finest outfits Keely has ever owned. Keely felt in debt to her so she took her out to lunch to Jean Georges. Keely made sure not to buy much to eat herself. The menu prices were horribly expensive.

"I'm not surprised that we got in here without reservations. My husband and I come here quite often. They must know who I am. You're lucky I'm here, or you wouldn't have had a chance." Sophia said while looking over the menu.

Keely laughed a little. She was having a good time with Sophia, but she felt like a little speck when she was with her. She enjoyed shopping with her and was greatly appreciated of her kindness. She wasn't completely envious either. She just felt insufficient.

"So, how is your life? Are you single? Do you have kids? Probably not, you're as skinny as a twig. Where are you from?" Sophia asked after ordering her meal.

"Life is good. A little… different lately. I have a boyfriend. And I don't have kids, yet. And I'm from-"

"Yet?!?!?" Sophia interrupted once again.

"Yea, I'm pregnant."

"This is so exciting!"

"Yea! I found out not to long ago." Keely started to get a little energized.

"Wow. Who's the father?"

"Uhm. My boyfriend." Keely answered wondering if Sophia thought that she was a slut or something.

"Oh, that's right. That makes sense. When are you do?"

"Nine months from now I would think."

"Nine months? Wow. I wouldn't be able to do that. I mean, carrying something in me for every day. Accidentally peeing in my pants every time I sneeze. No. Not for me."

Keely started to think. She wondered if pregnancy was really for her. She waned to start working again. She wanted to go try to get a job at another news station. She couldn't bare thinking of being pregnant on TV. Maybe she could get a job back behind the cameras. No, her dream was to be on camera. Ever since she was just six ears old she wanted to be a pop star, or be a dancer. Everything she ever wanted to do involved being on TV.

"You ok? Did I say something wrong? I apologize."

"No, no. It's just, you got me thinking for a second."

The two ladies ate their meal. Keely paid the check witch burned a big whole in her wallet.

Sophia called a taxi and paid for it to take Keely home.

When Keely got home she saw that Phil was home too. She opened the front door "Phil?" she called.

"I'm in here." Phil called from the bedroom. Keely walked down the hall to find him. "Why are you home?"

"I got fired." He was in the bathroom.

"What? Why?" Keely asked.

Phil opened the bathroom door and walked out to talk to her. "I guess some things in this time are illegal than in the future."

"What did you do?"

"Long story. But I'm ok. Nothing big happened. I'm not going to court, no one is getting arrested."

"Wow. So what are you going to do about a job?" Keely asked kissing him lightly.

"Don't worry. I'll get one. Within the week."

"Am I allowed to get a job now?"

"No." He laughed. "I'm going to support this family."

Two or three months passed. Keely's baby bump was now noticeable. Phil got a job as a store clerk at Dillard's. He worked at one of the jewelry counters. He looked over American laws to make sure he wouldn't do anything illegal again.

Keely and Phil enjoyed their relationship together so far. They were happy. Phil was extremely excited for the baby. He wanted to start thinking of names for it with Keely. He wanted to name it Abigail if it was a girl and Oswald if it was a boy. Keely wanted to name it Daron if it was a boy and Tia if it was a girl. Keely started to look forward to her new child, but she wasn't very sure still.

Keely and Sophia's friendship grew stronger. They went out shopping and to go get a bite to eat every once in a while. Keely adapted to having a rich friend and no longer felt sorry for her self and she bought her own clothes when she was with Sophia. She never let Sophia pay for anything of hers.

No readers, this is not the last chapter. There may be only one more chapter to come though. I PROMISE it will come out very very very soon.

And CraftyNotepad, your little comment in the reviews, it kind of pissed me off. I wanted to slap you for that. Just saying. Not trying to be mean here, but I did not appreciate that.

I'm in a writing mood, so I'm going to start the next chapter. Yay:!!
