….Di watched Rob as he disappeared into the loo and reappeared with the test stick. She looked at him, eyes focused on the stick.
Di: babe, no suspense ..

Di: Yes. (A thin layer of worry creeped in)
Rob: uhm ( rubbed his head) ..it is… aaah, nna ga ke bone sentle love, I see one line but it seems like the other one is faded.. .
Di: let me see for myself. (She leaped up and grabbed the stick).
Rob: You are not preggies love, I was joking .What if you were?( he asked concerned)
Di: I don’t know babe,I just know I have no thoughts of pregnancy right now. It will be hectic.
Rob: Does it scare you?

Rob: it wouldn’t take you back to the previous experience?

Rob: Hahaha! I love those names anyway. As for now we need to think about family planning, I don’t want to be seeing grumpy faces from now on.
Di: I guess, but remember the last time I was taking pills my libido fled, went out through the window, o se fraa kana! Hahaha!
Rob: Dont remind me! I felt like someone robbed me of my girlfriend.
Di: We will see if we have other options.
Rob: whatever you are comfortable with love. Your wish is my command.

The next morning felt exactly like a brand new day, Rob woke up early and was tending to the yard. Di woke up later when sunrays began to invade the room, She sat up and looked around her bedroom. It was beautiful to spend a night in their own home.
She needed house warming to go with this phase.
She took her phone and dialed Beauty

“See, you are already making up reasons- don’t plan my heart attack please,” he said rubbing his chest.
They continued to laugh.
“ You have no reason to worry babe. Let me go do the chores my garden boy!” Di left.
“Yes, ma’ am !” Rob responded winking at her.
