I hear Luke’s deep voice in the background and Natalie’s response. “Trust me,” I respond sarcastically, “I’m aware.” This could have disaster written all over it.” “I hope it works out the way you want it to, sweetie. It’ll work out.” I bite my lip and push my cake away from me. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but frankly I’m so tired of pretending that I’m not attracted to him. Fuck, Jules, do you know what you’re doing?” There is just silence on the phone and I think I’ve lost her. I explain about his email this afternoon and dinner in his office and how I ended up here. But I have a confession.” I have to tell her. “Don’t be a bitch,” she responds, making me laugh. “We love you, Luke and that precious baby girl. I am never going to win this argument with her. We don’t need anyone to give us gifts, you know that.” “I’m excited to see the family, but you know I hate it when you guys spend money on me, Jules. Are you excited for the shower next weekend?” I ask. Only a few weeks left, can you believe it?” And she thinks my bladder is a trampoline.” I can hear the joy in her voice and I grin. ![]() This baby has something against letting me breathe these days. “So, you are awake?” she asks dryly when she answers. I don’t get to see her as often as I used to. I’ve missed her so much since she moved out of our house and into Luke’s house just up the street from me. ![]()
