Once Emma fell asleep, I laid her back down in her bassinet and then I went to bed. Zack went and did his work while watching tv. He didn't come to bed until 2am. That night Aliah woke 2 times and Emma woke up 4 times. By 8am I was up, dressed, showered and had made breakfast. Aliah and Emma were both also dressed and eating. Hayley got up at 10am. Zack was still sleeping.
Around noon everyone had eaten breakfast, showered and was dressed. Just then my mom walked in.
"Hello!" Said my mother
"In the kitchen!" I yelled back
She sat the table with Hayley and I carried Emma over and sat down. Zack was playing upstairs with Aliah.
"Hayley.. Why would you leave like that?" My mom asked
"Because you were so mad at me." She cried
"Yeah because you were in bed with a boy."
"Mom, nothing was happening. She told me it was just a kiss." I cut in
"It was. I wasn't feeling good. I would never do that. I don't want to end up as a teen mom." Said Hayley
"From now on I won't jump to conclusion. But you have to promise me that there will be no boys over unless and adult is home and no boys in the bedroom unless the doors open.
"Deal, let's go home!" Said Hayley hugging our mom
They loaded Hayley's things into my moms SUV. I would have helped but I couldn't lift anything over 20 pounds and Zack wouldn't let me.
"Thank you Maya! I love you!" Said Hayley hugging me
"Maya, thanks for looking out for her. Love you." Said my mom hugging me
After they left I put Aliah and Emma down for a nap. While Zack and I sat on the couch and watched an old episode in CSI.
"Maya!" Whispered Zack
"What?" I Asked back quietly
"I love you!" He said
"I love you more!" I responded
"I love you the most!" He said and then Emma started crying
The next few weeks went by the same. I was crazy busy with Aliah and Emma all hours, day and night. Zack was working 13 hour days and staying up really late. Playing with Aliah and Emma for little bit.
It was now May 29th. Today I decided to go back to work. The building was finally done. I pulled in the parking lot and carried Emma in with a diaper bag, my purse, my black work bag. I held Aliah's hand and she walked in.
I unlocked the door and we went into my office. I put Emma in the bouncy chair which sat on my desk. Aliah sat on the floor in the corner and played.
Instead of getting a babysitter I was going to bring my two cuties to work with me.
In one of the smaller extra rooms I put two porta cribs in there. In my office I had the bouncy chair and a blanket in the corner with toys.
Most of the day I spent organizing everything. Katie was organizing the dresses and I cleaned my office.
That night I packed for Paris. I was bringing two suitcases. One was my personal one with all my things. The other one was cheaper and was from MK wedding to bring the dress that was the whole reason I was going to Paris. Zack also packed his one suitcase.
I worked the next two days and met with three new clients that Katie would take care of whole I was gone.
It was now June 1st and Zack and I were flying to Paris today!
I loaded my car up with everything for Paris for Zack and I. Along with our daughters stuff for Cody and Bailey's.
Once everything was in Cody and Bailey's suite. Two porta cribs, diaper bag, three suitcases, a few toys and the other things. We kissed our kids goodbye and said goodbye to Cody and Bailey.
I left my car at the Tipton and and Carey drove us in her car to the airport. We got out and thanked her. We went through security and checked our bags. Now all we had was a carry on and my purse.
We sat in the waiting area for our plane to be called. I was about a 20 minute wait which consisted of a conversation about our daughters and work.
Finally we boarded the plane and it took off.
We had been flying for five hours when we finally landed.
We got off the plane, grabbed our luggage and took a cab to our hotel. We had two king beds, small kitchen, large bathroom and a table. It also had a patio which over looked Paris.
In Paris it was 9pm. We fell asleep exhausted and woke up the next morning and had room service. I showered and got dressed. I wore a black dress with straps with black and white stripped heels. I curled my hair and applied make-up. I then carried my black coach purse.
"Zack I need to drop off the dress today at 1pm." I said
Zack wore a pair of tan cargo shorts and a t shirt. We left the hotel room with the suitcase and went to the building.
They buzzed us in and we went up to the 37th floor. Zack waited in the lobby while I walked into Mr. Millers office.
"Ms. Bennett, welcome to Paris!" He said
"Thank you, it's nice to meet you!" I said trying to be formal
I showed him the dress and he bought it for 41,402 dollars.
"I'm very impressed with your work. I would be willing to pay you 4 million a month if you ship me 6 dresses every month." He said
"Deal!" I said shaking his hand
He typed up our agreement and we both signed it. I got a copy and so did he. We shook hands again and I left. He kept the suitcase as I didn't want to haul it home.
I put the folder in my purse and then Zack and I walked in science back to the hotel. All we heard was people talking birds chirping, and the clicking of my heels. I put the folder in my suitcase.
"So how did it go?" He asked
"Amazing four million a month from him for six dresses every month!" I said
"That's amazing!" He said
"NO! Just shut up. God you haven't kisses me in five days. All we talk about now is work and our kids. We never get alone time. Ever. I'm always at work, making dinner, or with our kids. Same for you. Zack you work 10-14: hours a day and don't come to bed until at least 2am every single day. I can't keep doing this. I need a guy that will kiss me daily. A guy that will be with me and love me." I said letting all my emotions out
I quickly grabbed my purse and left the hotel room and walked the streets of Paris with tears in my eyes.
