"What is it Ennis?" Miria called as she was pulled away by Ennis.
Ennis looked back and whispered, "Come with me…I'll tell you..."
Ennis tugged her into a café and they sat down at a booth in the corner, where they could be alone.
Miria pouted and asked, "Jeez, Ennis. What's going on?"
Ennis put a finger over her lips and whispered, "I have a secret, some important news, to tell you."
Miria stared at her with wide, innocent eyes and Ennis felt a blush creep up on her cheeks.
"I…I…" She started.
Miria tilted her head to one side and said, "Come on, just spill it out Ennis."
Ennis shut her eyes and opened them. Miria was still waiting expectantly. Here goes nothing.
Ennis leaned in very close but suddenly, she was interrupted when the waiter appeared and asked for their orders.
Miria looked at Ennis and Ennis looked at Miria. Awkwardly, Ennis sat back down and could not help but wait until the waiter was gone to continue what she was about to say.
As soon as he was gone, Ennis leaned over again and whispered very quietly into Miria's ear. Miria eagerly listened.
"Firo and I are having a baby."
Miria stood right up, then and there, and shouted, "WHAT?!"
The other customers in the restaurant swiveled their heads at them and Ennis quickly ushered Miria to sit back down and pretend that everything was normal.
Miria's face was filled with delight as she took her seat again.
"Wow! You and Firo are gonna be a mommy and a daddy! Congratulations!" Miria whispered fiercely with glowing eyes.
Ennis grinned and thanked her. Miria grinned too and elbowed her teasingly.
"About time, huh?" Miria whispered, a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Ennis ignored it and replied bluntly, "I don't know what you're talking about."
However, both were still smiling.
As their food arrived, Miria suddenly thought of something.
"Oh yeah, Ennis, can I tell this to Isaac?"
Ennis thought about this for a moment, and answered with "Sure," but thought, I hope he doesn't go off and tell everybody about the secret though.
