I was now three months pregnant, and it seemed as if my bump had grown over night for the dress that I wanted to wear did not fit at all.
"You look beautiful." said Shiwoo kneeling as he kissed my stomach and I smiled.
"I didn't say that I didn't look beautiful silly. I said that my bump was showing."
"Yeah. My son is a line backer. He is so big." he said and I playfully rolled my eyes,
"Well daughter just loves food and is growing."
"What if it's both? I am really good huh?"
"I guess so. Then you won't worry about shooting blanks." I teased and he laughed.
"Ha ha yeah right. Me? Shooting blanks? In what world?"
"Don't get too cocky now darling. You have me twins once, it might not happen again. Besides the twins are from my side of the family. Not to burst you bubble." I said and he pouted so I laughed and pecked his lips, "okay okay. You're a sharp shooter so the twins are all you're doing."
"Thank you m'lady." he said giving me another kiss and I laughed shaking my head and went inside the closet to change.
"How about this one and coat?"
"Beautiful, magnificent. Is this Spring in Milan?" he gasped popping his hip and laughed.
"You're so stupid ha ha."
"Stupid? Nah-uh girlfriend. I'm trendy. I'm a fashionista sweety."
"Stooop!" I laughed through gasps as I held my stomach, "ha ha I-ha-can't"
He chuckled as buttoned his shirt as I sat on the bed trying catch my breath, "but for real though. You look gorgeous. As always."
"Okay. I'll wear it." I said smiling and he returned my smile.
I helped him with the cuffs of his shirt and he helped me with my heals, and he grabbed his jacket and me my purse and we were off to work.
He dropped the kids off at the baby sitter's and I went to work.
After he found out about me not leaving my office during lunch that one time, he started calling me everyday at that time and sent delivery for me so that I didn't have any excuse as to why and I quote, "I was starving myself and his child."
Today the lunch menu was a little too much for so I called Lia and Minjae and we ate together.
We were almost at the end of lunch when Lia looked at Minjae, and they both nodded as if telepathically communicating.
"When were you going to tell us about your pregnancy?" asked Lia and I froze, :oh come on we see you everyday and we were with you during your pregnancy with the twins. We could tell for like a month now."
"Oh. Well I was going to tell you guys, but I was waiting until the end of the first trimester. I promise."
"Never mind that, but congratulations! I am so happy for you and Shiwoo. Wait Shiwoo knows right?" asked Minjae and I chuckled.
"Of course he does. He told me while we were doing it that he was going to put a baby in me. Now look at me." I said as I stood up and turned to the side.
"Well I am excited already. What are you guys hoping for? Boy girl or both?"
"Well he wants a son, but I want a daughter," I replied and they nodded, "but we will be happy either way."
"Awww. Minjae can we have another baby? We can't have Tally having a baby on her own this time. Girls stick together." asked Lia and Minjae choked on his drink.
"Lia I-ano *coughs* another baby? Now?" he asked staring at me for help and I looked away scratching the back of my neck, "baby I don't if we sho-"
"Please" she beg giving him puppy eyes and he sighed caving.
"Fine."
"Yay! I'm having a daughter." she clapped as she stood up grabbing her things, Minjae being one of them.
"This is all you fault." he mouthed before she pulled him out the door to do God knows what.
I chuckled as I shook my head them as I cleaned up my office, when my phone began to ring.
"Hello?"
"Is this a miss Atalia Carter?" asked the person from the other side of the phone and I softly chuckled and decided to play along.
"Depends on who is asking."
"Well I am calling on behalf of a Mister Kim Seo Jin re the matter of a last name change. Did I get the wrong number?"
"Hmm a Mister Kim Seo Jin? Can't say that I know him." I teased and he scoffed almost breaking character.
"Ah maybe you know him by the name Shiwoo."
"Shiwoo?" I asked fake pondering as I hummed scratching my chin, "ah yes. It appears I do."
"So do I have the right number?" he asked and I hummed.
"It appears you do."
"Great now about his proposal. Do you accept?" he asked and I shrugged.
"If this is is his idea of a proposal then he needs to try harder. You can tell him that I said so Mister Sir."
"Noted." he answered and I knew that he was smirking, "I will deliver this message to him quickly ma'am. He is such a quite handsome young man isn't he? I wish I were him."
"Ha ha okay, an uhh Shiwoo, don't forget to pick up some dinner."
"Sure thing babe. I love you bye." he said and I laughed.
"See I know that it was you dummy. I'll see you later, and I love you too."
I hung up the phone still smiling like a goof ball and I rolled my eyes cleaning up.
"What was that? Was he actually proposing? Ha! He wishes." I said chuckling.
I knew that he was only playing, and that he would never propose like that, but it had been three months into my pregnancy, and to be honest, I thought that he would have proposed by now.
I had been giving him hints by showing him hints, and by leaving out my ring, but I guess being a guy makes him oblivious to that.
But let's forget about that for a second, for this coming weekend I was planning on calling my family while at his parents house and break the news.
I had been planning it for a while now, and I was a bit nervous, but I was excited.
Especially since Lia and Minjae were so excited already.
I couldn't wait.
