Hey people,

I've given a time leap in this chapter; hope you enjoy it! The chapter isn't exactly long, but I thought if I tried to stretch it any longer, it would become monotonous.

R & R!!

FOUR YEARS LATER

Jesse and I now have a daughter. She's three and her name is Olivia, and we mostly think that she's a mediator, too, because we once found her trying to get a grumpy old newly-dead ghost (whom we later helped to move on) to play ring-a-ring-a-roses with her. I got pregnant with her during our honeymoon. Olivia is very pretty – she's totally taken after Jesse looks-wise – the same silky ebony hair and smooth olive complexion. We've got a lot of people saying that she's a really pretty baby. Mom and Andy couldn't help preening over becoming grandparents. Doc's absolutely thrilled to be an uncle. Dopey and Sleepy pretend as if they have a totally 'whatever' attitude towards Olivia, but you should see how their eyes shine when they see her, especially Dopey. Olivia absolutely adores them, too.

Jason is about two and a half months older to Olivia. He's blond like Paul, and looks a lot like him in many ways. Olivia and Jason are best buddies. They're both finishing their first year of playschool.

Right now, we, along with Paul and Christie, are sitting in our living room, toasting glasses of lemonade and laughing. By the time Olivia was born, Jesse had completed his medicine, and become a practicing doctor. We've got a small clinic for Jesse. Jesse's very pleased with his prefix – Dr. Jesse de Silva. He doesn't call himself Hector anymore, and has got his name legally changed to Jesse. We've got a new apartment – a much better one. It's got two full-sized bedrooms and a pretty big living room. The kitchen's not a separate room, it's a kitchenette, part of the living room. The counter is the only thing that separates the kitchenette and the living room. We purposely picked a house with such a kitchenette, so that the person who is cooking (a.k.a. Jesse – he's the one who can cook with that magic touch. I can't cook – period. Though I can whip up a mean bowl of impromptu noodles) can still interact with the others, and isn't cut off.

I hear Olivia wailing suddenly. Before I can get up to see what the matter is, she comes running to me herself, sporting a badly scraped elbow. "Mommy!" she cries, hopping into my lap. "My bow!" "Elbow, not bow," I laugh. That's a little problem with Olivia. Besides the words mommy and daddy, she only pronounces the last syllable of the word she mean to say. We're working on correcting her of this.

I examine Olivia's skinned elbow. It doesn't look too bad after all. "Could you get a Band-Aid, babe?" I ask Jesse. "Sure," says Jesse, getting up and going to the bedroom. Olivia's sobbing now. "Sshh…" I say to her gently. "Olivia's a brave girl, right? Just like Mommy." Paul laughs. Olivia stops sobbing. "Via, ave irl," she says, meaning "Olivia, brave girl,"

Jesse comes back with a Band-Aid and hands it to me. I remove the release paper and carefully stick it over Olivia's elbow. She squeaks while I do this. After I put the Band-Aid on for her, she continues to sit in my lap, starting to play with my hair, one of her favorite things to do.

The next moment, Jason comes up to me with an impatient look on his face. He looks at Olivia, curled up in my lap, and shakes her arm. "Ow!" she cried. "Via hurt!" "Olivia, come and play!" cries Jason. "Jason lonely." Olivia looks up at me with her shining emerald eyes. "Go on," I say. "What are you waiting for?" Olivia gives a playful smile and jumps off my lap, running off to play hide-and-seek with Jason.

When I see Olivia giggling behind Jesse's loveseat, I think – Life's perfect.
