"I'm just scared. Things are so good between us, and we've been through so much. I just want a little time to enjoy being with him without all the problems we have had to face."

"I know you are. Thank you. "
"Would you like to do an ultrasound to see how far along you are?"
"I shouldn't. That feels like something Teo should be here for. It wouldn't feel right without him."
"Okay, but you need to tell him soon. And you need to see an obstetrician sooner rather than later to make sure that your baby gets the best start in life that it can.”
Your baby. The words echoed in my head. I was having a baby.
“I will. Just as soon as we get back from our honeymoon.”
“Okay, until then I'm going to write you a prescription for prenatal vitamins. Keep using the peppermints, ginger ale, and crackers for the nausea. You can also try ginger, but if that doesn’t work, I can call you in something to help.”
“I really appreciate this.”
“Anything for you. And tell Chiara to give you a bag of those peppermints. That should get you through until you can pick up some before your trip.”
“I will. I should go before I'm late for the girls’ lunch.”
“Call me if you have any questions or any problems come up. And I'll put together a recommendation for the best obstetricians in our area.”
I kissed Arman on both cheeks before heading out to lunch.

Iwoke up expectingto see Mia lying next to me, but her side of the bed was empty. There was no sign of her in the bathroom, or anywhere else for that matter. I checked her old room, but she wasn’t there either, so I headed downstairs.
“Buongiorno, Bianca, Lucia. Is Mia around?”
“I haven’t seen her,” Lucia responded and looked at Bianca.
“I’ve been in the kitchen all morning, and she hasn’t come in for coffee or breakfast.”
