It was about two months later and Grace was in her Office drawing on one of her huge sketch pads with this little smirk on her face. She couldn't concentrate though. She had this big news boiling up inside her she had to tell someone. Suddenly Karen casually walks into the office, stops, and slowly creeps to her desk so Grace wouldn't notice she was late. But Of course Grace knew. But she didn't say anything; she needed to finish this sketch she was working on. Finally she had to say something; she didn't want Karen thinking she could keep getting away with being late.
"Nice of you to finally drop by, Karen."
"I…" Karen began but Grace cut her off.
"Its fine, Karen no need for excuses, I think you've used them all ten times before anyway." Grace said with that huge smirk still painted on her face.
Karen was a little taken aback but recovered with,
"What's this, what's with the big happy smirk and not caring about me being late?" She said with a few gestures of her hand.
"Nothing!" Grace replied but the smirk turned into a big grin and Karen wasn't buying it. Karen gave her a look and got up from her desk, walked over to Grace and leaned on the desk.
"Whatya doodling?"
"It's not a doodle Karen; we've been over this before. It's called a Blue Print.
"Fine, what's the "Blue Print" of"
"A baby's room." Grace replied, her smile growing bigger and bigger with every word.
"Oh are you and Will Getting Married?"
"…Karen, we got married a month ago, lay off the Martinis and pay attention once and a while."
"Oh right….So who's the Client?"
"There is no client…"
"Okay? Now I'm confused. If you're sitting here, doodling a baby's room and the room isn't for a new Client then why are you doodling?"
"I'm Pregnant."
"Hmm what was that honey, I don't think I heard you right, I thought you just said you were Pregnant."
"I did!"
"Your…What?"
"I'm Pregnant!"
"Oh Grace, I'm so happy for you!"
"I know! But you can't tell Will yet, I want to tell him on my own."
"Oh Honey you know I can't keep secrets. I'll try." With that Karen surprised Grace with a hug and went back to her seat and began to file her nails as if the hug never happened.
Thanks for the reviews!
