We Promised.... But What Happened?

XXII

Angela's POV

Feeling refreshed after our nap, we were all now getting ready for dinner. The girls were already dressed, and their moms were doing their makeup. I pray that I have a daughter so that I could have the same relationship as these ladies do with their daughters. I'm currently four months and I am so grateful that I haven't started to show yet. I haven't been getting sick or anything which is a plus, because if Eric knew that I was pregnant, who knows what he would've tried to do. I put the finishing touches to my makeup and made sure that everything looked perfect.

"Ang, are you almost done?" Yolanda asked

"I'm finished." I replied walking out my bathroom

"Mom, there's nothing wrong with this top." I overheard Doe and Jacky tell their moms

"You both are showing just a little too much cleavage and Jacky those jeans are hugging just a lil too tight in some places." Cassandra told them

"Mrs. Dawns can you please our mothers that there is nothing wrong with our outfits?" Doe pleaded

"I'm not your mother, so I can't give my input. But I will say that as young lady of your stature, you should at least change." I replied to them

"Go change." Cassandra told them

"Ang, you look beautiful." Yolanda complimented me

"Do I really? With my marriage, Eric made me feel really secure about my body image and things, so I never wore stuff like this." I explained

"Yeah well, I'm sure you will gain all of that confidence back once you and Steven light that fire that is dying to be started between the two." Cheryl and Val joked

"Girls, are you changed?" I yelled out

"Yep. Is this better mother?" They both asked

"Better." They replied

"Good, let's go to dinner before your mothers ask any more questions." I told them walking towards the door

"Ang, you can't ignore us all night. It won't work." Cassandra told her

"Watch me. You forgot that I am a teacher. Ignoring people is my specialty." I told them heading to the van

*AFTER DINNER*

"Dinner was great. Thank you for ordering for us Steven. How did you know what we would like to eat?" Yolanda asked him

"I've been friends with you all for over 20+ years, it's called studying and paying attention." Steven replied

"Well, you did great. Thank you." Val told him

"Well, I hope you have room for dessert. Piccola Pasticceria for everyone." Steven spoke as the chef brought the dessert out and passed it to everyone

"After this, you girls are to head back to the room. The adults will be hanging out tonight and for a few hours we will not parents." Cheryl spoke

"That's fine with us. Just don't get too drunk. You remember what happened in San Francisco last year?" Doe replied to her mom

"I'll never forget how Doe called me from your hotel upset because you had ruined their first night." Val spoke

"I didn't think that vodka was that strong." Cheryl explained

"It was 130 proof!" Doe replied

"Steven that dessert was the bomb. Now I need some tequila. Yolanda are you ready?" Chelle asked

"You know it. Cassandra let's go get a head start." Yolanda told her

"I'm way ahead of you." Cassandra spoke
