I take a sip of my iced tea checking my phone again for the time. A black Mercedes pulls into the parking lot, coming to a stop right near the door. Andy climbs out, smiling. She waves to whoever is in the car before closing the door and watching them speed off. She walks into the diner, taking a seat across from me.
“Hey, Skye! What’s up? How did the appointment go?”
“Don’t try to distract me. Who drove you here?”
She smiles, shaking her head.
“Nobody important. How did your appointment go?”
“Andromia Sanchez! Tell me who drove you here!”
“Fine!”
She leans in to me, lowering her voice.
“Don’t be mad at me.”
“I won’t now tell me!”
“Daniel Ezra.”
My jaw drops open, revealing my shock.

“I guess that’s more than a fling, right?”
“It’s just a casual thing every once in a while.”
“Oh yeah? How many times have you seen him in the past two weeks?”
She hesitates, deep in thought. It takes her a few seconds to finally respond.
“That doesn’t matter. He’s going with his family on a vacation next week anyway.”
“Does that mean that Peni is going with them?”
I don’t hide the desperation in my voice. I need to sort things out with Hunter. I need to see how life will play out.
“No. I think she’s going after them. Something about helping a client finish off the publishing process.”
Guess telling Hunter I’m pregnant will just have to wait until I’m showing then. Crap.
“So how did your appointment go?”
“Good vitals. Baby is doing well. At least, that’s what I’m guessing. They didn’t tell me anything but I need to make an ultrasound appointment.”
“Are you going to find out the gender?”
I can’t help but laugh at her question. It’s not the appropriate response, but heck with it.
“I don’t even know if I’m going to keep the baby let alone figure out the gender!”
Her face drops to a serious expression. The waitress comes over to take her drink order.
“A coffee, please.”
The waitress nods before leaving, cueing Andy to start her rant.
“Are you kidding me? You are keeping the baby. I won’t let you get rid of the baby. You’re going to tell Hunter and you’re going to make him care for you and his creation!”
“I’m not going to tell Hunter.”
Her coffee is placed in front of her and she grabs some cream and sugar.
“Fine. Do as you please, but I’m not letting you give up or get rid of my godchild.”
I can’t stop the laugh from escaping my lips.
“Godchild?”
She nods, completely serious.
“Yes. I am going to be this baby’s godmother.”
I shake my head, smiling. I’m not going to deny her either. She’s the perfect fit and she’s my best friend. She’ll be with me through the whole thing no matter what.
“Okay. For now, this baby is making me hungry. Let’s eat!”
