"Girl you are trying to kill me." Tia said to me slowing down her treadmill.

"Man up. It's just a little running." I slowed mine down to a walking pace.

"Why didn't you drag Tammy here?"

"She's with her man. And I never have to drag her. She comes willingly."

She rolled her eyes and took a swig of water. I had a doctor's appointment this morning and it stressed me out a little so I decided to come to the gym. Orlando had practices all day so I had to bring someone along.

I had to go see my OBGYN this morning. Orlando and I have been talking about adoption lately but I can't help but still want to get pregnant. I know what the doctor said but I can't help the feeling. I know there are so many kids out there that need a home and hopefully I can give them one but I just had to give it one more try.

The results were still the same. They say there's no way I can carry a child so I just have to play the hand I've been dealt. I called Orlando and he said we can start doing research tonight and see what this adoption thing is all about. I really wanted to expand my family and if this was how I had to do it then I would do that.

"How's Tammy liking this new apartment? I haven't spoken to her since she got all moved in." We were now sitting on the floor stretching.

"She getting used to it. I know she misses being with August every night tho. She won't admit it but I know her." Tammy moved out of August's house and into her own apartment last week.

She nodded. "So what's next since you want to kill me today?"

I stood up. "Squats."

She sighed and joined me in front of the gym mirror.

When I got home I was tired sweaty and hungry as hell. Orlando wouldn't be home for another hour so I went upstairs to take a shower before going into the kitchen and grilling some chicken for my salad. By the time it was done I could hear the front door open and close.

I took the chicken out the pan and went to the fridge to get the rest of the stuff for my salad. Orlando came and kissed me before telling me he was taking a shower. I waited to finish making my salad cause I knew he'd want one.

When he came back down stairs I made our salads and we sat at the island instead of the table. I knew he could sense something was bothering me cause he kept looking at me.

"Come on baby talk to me."

I sighed and put my fork down. "I just I don't know Orlando. I'm kind of nervous about this whole adoption thing."

"Why is that?" I shrugged. "Everything will be fine. There's a million kids out there that need a home. If we can find the perfect baby for us we'll be blessed Draya. Don't look at the negative in this situation. You know God knows exactly what he's doing. We may not see it right now but he's doing all this for the better."

I knew he was right but sometimes it still bothered me. I just have to roll with the punches and keep it moving.

After we ate and went upstairs we got online and looked at different information on adoption. Some people said they loved it and others gave the kids back for whatever reason.

We decided to wait until after the wedding to completely go through with this but I wanted to know absolutely everything I could before starting the process.

Tammy

"August stooooop." I was trying to put some ice cream in my bowl because I was craving but he kept kissing on me.
