I've decided that having a daughter named Kaida, and a friend named Kaida is just too hectic. So, my baby is now called Juliet, or just Julie. That way, we won't get confused.
"Julie is so pretty today." George told Julie, "She's just beautiful."
"Wow." Andrea said, "The attention he pays to that baby totally out-weighs the attention he's paid to me recently."
Here comes the jealousy again.
"I think I see a little green monster." mom said, "Are you jealous of Juliet, Andrea?"
Andrea looked at mom as if lazers would shoot out of her eyes. If they had, mom's head would've been on the ground, full of holes, instead of where it was, on her neck, where it's supposed to be.
"No." she said, angrily, and walked out of the room, mumbling, "I'm going for a walk."
Julie cries so much when Fred and George aren't over. She can even tell the difference between them. She likes Fred more. Whenever they walk up to her, she crawls toward Fred. George has probably noticed this by now.
"She hates me, doesn't she?" he asked me, while watching Fred play with her.
"No." I said, hugging him from behind, "She just likes Fred more. He was the first guy to hold her. Usually, that right is reserved for the father of the child."
"So, are you going to marry him?" George asked, "I just want to be prepared."
"For...?"
"The disappointment." he replied.
"So, it's true, is it?" I asked, "You really do like me."
George sat for a minute, staring at Julie. I was beginning to think that I had it all wrong. Finally he said, "Yes. I do."
"Then why didn't you tell me before?" I asked.
"Because," he said, "You've loved Fred since we were just kids. And I knew that Andrea liked me."
He sat for a minute and thought. "I really tried to like her." he said, "I really did. I just... I can't get over you."
"George, you're going to have to eventually." I said, "I'm pretty sure I'm marrying Fred. I'm really sorry."
When everyone went back to school, I as extremely bored. I played with Julie, and usually napped with her too. Watching a little girl is really hard. Her schedule is crazy too. I wake up at 2AM now, just because that's when she's decided that morning should start. I end up going to bed around 12AM because she won't stop crying until then. We nap for at least 3 hours at 9AM, 12PM, and 6PM. Feeding hours are even crazier.
Fred comes to visit. Most of the time, he's alone. Andrea hates me for all the attention given to the baby, and George's still upset about me deciding to marry Fred.
The wedding is planned for December 24th. Just before Julie's first Christmas. And we're all totally excited about that.
All the planning for the wedding is hectic. Mom's decided that it has to be DONE by October, or we fail as wedding planners. We've got my dress, Julie's dress, Fred's suit, and the decorations finished. Now all we need are invitations and a place to have it and we're almost finished.
The wedding finally comes, and everyone's excited except George and Andrea. The wedding goes great, and our honeymoon is postponed until we graduate. Mom doesn't want any "shenenigans" before then.
