Chapter 25: Alfie finds out Amber is pregnant and Nina's sickness.
Alfie came home to find Amber eating pears and ice cream.
Alfie's thoughts: What? Amber hates pears. Why would she mix them with ice cream? That's weird. Is she okay? Is she an alien?
He ignored it and went over and kissed his wife's cheek.
Amber: Hi boo. How was work? Catch any good criminals?
Alfie: Yeah. It's all serious work catching criminals. Are you okay? You're eating pears and ice cream. You hate pears.
Amber: True but Victoria Beckham says that pears are good for your complexion. So, why not eat some pears.
Alfie: Well as long as you are okay. I'm just worried. You've been acting up since we came back from the honeymoon. How's Nina?
Amber: She's great but tired most of the time because of Kaeleigh.
Alfie: Mom problems?
Amber: Huh?
Alfie: You know. Does she have mom problems?
Amber: Like what?
Alfie: The usual. The crying and the feeding, the resting.
Amber: I don't know. I never asked her. She's trying to get acting roles.
Alfie: Oh. Okay.
Amber: I'll call her.
Nina: (Groggily) Hello?
Amber: Hi Neens. How are you?
Nina: Tired. I've been up breastfeeding Kaeleigh and trying to sleep but I can't go to sleep.
Amber: Oh, well what about Fabian? Can't he help with the changing and giving you rest?
Nina: Yeah but he has work and me. I have nothing to do. In fact I don't *Coughs and coughs again* Amber, I have to go. I don't really feel so good. Bye.
Amber: Feel better Nina. Bye.
Amber hung up and called Fabian.
Fabian: Hello?
Amber: Fabian. Nina's not feeling so good.
Fabian: How do you know?
Amber: I called her and then she started coughing and then she said she wasn't feeling so good.
Fabian: I'll call her. Thanks Ambs.
Amber: Nina's not feeling well. Fabian is going to check on her. I'm worried.
Alfie: I'm sure she's fine.
