The next day Sab had to tell someone her news before she went to work. She went to Elaina's office to see her. Elaina's secretary announced Sab over the intercom.

"Let her in," Elaina said.

Sab peaked her head in. "Very busy at the moment?"

"Never too busy for you or Frank. What's up? You're here earlier than you normally go to work or did Frank fire you and not tell me?"

"No. Nothing like that, I just got up early for once," Sab replied as she walked in with her hands behind her back. "There's something I needed to talk about with you."

"Sounds serious."

"It is. Well.um.how do I put this?" Sab said as she raised her hand to put her hair behind her ear. As she does Elaina noticed the ring on her finger.

"OH MY GOD! Is that what I think it is?! Elaina exclaimed getting up to walk over to her.

"What?" Sab said then looked at her hand and realizec she showed Elaina the ring. "Um .Well, what do you think?"

"You're sneaky for one thing and as far as the ring goes. Congrats!" Elaina hugged her. "I think it's terrific news. I see Maggie was correct on her prediction for you."

Sab blushed. "He asked me last night, and I thought you should be the first to know."

"I feel honored. Have you set a date or are you and Cody going to break my record of a 5 year engagement?"

Sab laughed. "No. But we haven't set a date yet. I really have no idea how to plan a wedding."

"I can help you by giving you a list of things you need to do. You had a little experience helping me but planning your own is really different."

"Yeah and scary. I'm actually getting married," Sab added, sounding hesitant.

"Getting married can be scary but being married is no different than living together except that you have a piece of paper to prove it," Elaina tried to assure her.

"Well Cody and I haven't been living together."

"I think you should take your time and live together for a while before you get married."

"Its not like we're getting married tomorrow. But it's just scary that soon we'll be walking down the aisle."

"I realize what you're saying but if you really want to get married it shouldn't be scaring you. It just sounds like you need some time is all," Elaina said.

"I guess so. The other thing that's bothering me is Maggie's predictions. It looks as if she was right about Cody and me getting back together. I mean if she knew that.."

"Will she be right about the children too? So that's what is scaring you? Having children?"

"Yeah it is. I mean it's a big responsibility. I was able to take care of Derek and Sarah for a week, but am I going to be ready to take care of one the rest of my life?" Sab asked looking off into space. "It also means that Cody and I can't do a lot of the stuff we normally do. Stay out late and go to clubs."

"There are such things as babysitters and or a nanny. Frank and I go out, we always have, always will. You don't give up your life when you have a child. A child will change it somewhat and it will enhance it very much but it's not a death sentence to your social life."

"I guess you're right. Just going to take some time to soak in," Sab replied.

"Sab a word of advice. Don't worry about having children you aren't married yet. Just relax and enjoy your engagement. I'll help you in any way to prepare for your wedding if you want me too. I'll give you motherly advice if and when you ever get pregnant."

"We talked about it and we're going to try to prevent having kids until we're married. I learned my lesson after that scare I had. I'll really appreciate any and all help and advice," Sab said, looking at her watch. "I better get out of here and get to work before Frank does fire me."

"I'd never let him do that just because you where late. Any other reason I would have to think about." She winked at her.

"Cya Elaina. Thanks for talking to me. I feel a little better about things," Sab said as she walked out the door.
