"Welcome home Will, how was your day?" I greeted him cheerily as he enters the door. He smiled back and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek.copyright protection16PENANAJc2OH22Y27
"Tiring but worth it, how's my darling?" then he looked at the table and gave me a questioning look. "Is there an occasion I don't know about?"copyright protection16PENANAkG1X6kEren
I placed the bowl of salad and lit the candle in the middle. The table was decorated with floral tablecloth with rose petals scattered around and a candle on the center giving it a simple but romantic vibe. I cooked Will's favorite steak, some salad and for dessert because I got lazy bought a tub of ice cream. I smiled at him secretly opening a bottle of red wine, well, that's only for him but how I wish I could drink it too. "Change first into something more comfortable then come back" Will shrugged and obeyed removing his shoes and bringing his things into the bedroom. I tossed the salad one more time and prepared the needed utensils. Five minutes later, Will was dressed in a simple white shirt and in his pajamas.copyright protection16PENANAdsPfXXoXVb
"Now can you tell me what's going on?" he queriedcopyright protection16PENANAazh1YW6jRN
"Okay, the reason I prepared of all this is, for you and also. . . take a bite while I go get something" I smiled excitedly. I went to the bedroom and fished out the picture. Returning, Will took a sip of his wine.copyright protection16PENANA3qN7vYHTem
"The steak is full of flavor, and cooked nicely" he complimented.copyright protection16PENANAkZOaAxCa9I
"Thank you, and also here. Have a look" I placed the ultrasound picture on the table. His eyes widened at the sight and looked at me then on the table, back at me again then at the table. His expression turned into excitement and glee with a hint of nervousness.copyright protection16PENANAqjqbdU8B5p
"When?" he whispered as if talking to the photograph.copyright protection16PENANAkoJFN2HY6H
"Almost a month ago, I'm sorry I didn't tell you so soon. I just wanted to be sure and I was a bit afraid that you might be angry with me" I answered sadly.copyright protection16PENANA6mc4iRKv84
He frowned looking at me "Why would I be angry about something like this? This is wonderful, almost too good to be true"copyright protection16PENANASmc1N0T5sr
"Maybe because you aren't ready to be a dad and then when I tell you it'll hit you like a bomb?" I bit my lip.copyright protection16PENANAOWiMUz8LPn
He stood up and wrapped his arms around my shoulder giving a light squeeze. I placed my nose on his chest inhaling his manly scent, leaning into him, I wrapped my arms around his waist.copyright protection16PENANAINHD2s9QrV
"You have no idea how happy you made me feel Korra. I promise that I'll try to be the best dad and husband to both of you. I'll protect you always and keep you safe. Do you already know it's gender?"copyright protection16PENANADR47goPvzG
His chest vibrated at each word making me nuzzle onto him. "No, I don't know yet. I want it to be a surprise but if you want to. . "copyright protection16PENANA3G5vtXkH7A
"No. no. That's what I prefer also. We'll wait until it comes out" Will sniffed.copyright protection16PENANAoJPLsmjVpZ
I pulled away from his embrace and held his head "Are you crying?" I teased.copyright protection16PENANAXGtDFX4UYC
"No, of course not" he furiously wiped his eyes with the back of his hand. I chuckled lightly swatting away his arm and gently dabbed napkin on his eyelids.copyright protection16PENANAepoTo4umWY
We were silent for a moment trying to absorb everything, well mostly for him because me, I may look like the perfect wife material but I knew the truth and this conscience would eventually eat me alive. Is this the right time to tell him? Maybe not, he's too happy and I don't want to ruin the surprise for him.copyright protection16PENANAVFMaVkIfz1
"I could have accompanied you to the doctor during your check ups if I had known sooner" his face full of concern.copyright protection16PENANAtMDGQv6hi1
"I knew you were busy and I am fine. I don't take my bike anymore instead I ride the bus and the doctor is very approachable so, no worries"copyright protection16PENANAM0k5MyBSNw
"Still, it's my responsibility. You are, both of you" his voice stern but soft.copyright protection16PENANAvTQd4dnF1m
"I'm sorry"copyright protection16PENANAED4nUnnHPT
Will placed a stray strand of hair behind my ear caressing my cheek "Don't be. I'm not angry you didn't tell me just surprised. Does that explain the sardines full of mayonnaise and the weird obsession you have with the cookies?"copyright protection16PENANAXnB25gRNLb
I laughed remembering his quote "Yes and that tasted divine and also with the mood swings"copyright protection16PENANAmseZNYOToZ
Will gagged "Never in a million years would I dare to taste what you ate" copyright protection16PENANAu3Mbx2UuMm
"Hush now and finish your dinner" I stuck my tongue out to him.copyright protection16PENANAOa0GcseyLv

"Good morning Tasha" I greeted cheerily.copyright protection16PENANAqVEAH1CBe5
"Someone's in a good mood today" her vibe matching my own.copyright protection16PENANAmNEHzwQtkP
"Not really, just the usual happy me. So, how many do I have today?" I leaned onto the counter twirling my hair.copyright protection16PENANAdoq9GwKP3Z
"Your a bit famous today, five clients"copyright protection16PENANASWMgbXXKmn
Whoa, "Are all of them new?"copyright protection16PENANAVJisVdsHqd
"Yep" she answered popping the p sound "Oh, and one of them is already here"copyright protection16PENANAOsmDurRfkv
I turned around facing the door, a brown and white Siberian husky walked in followed by the owner holding the leash. The guy removed his glasses and I stood very still. He wore black tattered jeans and a gray shirt. The moment he laid eyes on me, surprise mixed with amusement featured his face. My whole body was stiff and as he approached closer, I could tell that he was enjoying my discomfort.copyright protection16PENANABBF8Q3bMCX
"Good morning Mr. Smiles, this is Korra your groomer for today" Tasha introduced us formally not having any idea of the change in the atmosphere.copyright protection16PENANAKaJcUuTBPc
"Good morning" I spoke nervously not taking my eyes of his. He nodded not saying a word, his mischievous smile taunting my irritation.copyright protection16PENANA0lhc3to5FU
"Korra will lead you to a booth, Korra?" Tasha was indicating I had to get a move on, still not having any idea on what's happening.copyright protection16PENANAsQB5ZO3prB
I cleared my throat and spoke dryly "This way, Mr. Smiles" I gritted my teeth.copyright protection16PENANANfkxALcHvc
