"Baaee bring ya ass " I sighed as I struggled to stand up from the couch.

"Stay right here OK Vaeh " she nodded, not taking her eyes off the cartoon as she stuffed her face with gummy bears.

"What Aug, damn " I frowned walking into the kitchen. He turned around for the stove With a grin.

"Taste dis'" he said. I stale faced him as I looked down at the wooden spoon with some kind of sauce on it.

"Really, you made me get up to taste --"

"Just do it, you know you want to anyway fat girl" he chuckled as he rubbed my protruding belly. I rolled my eyes and laughed.

"Yeah you're right" I said as he held the spoon to my mouth. I tasted it and it seemed like my mouth was in food heaven. it was spicy and creamy and right now I was craving all things hot and spicy or really sour, he knew that.

"Mmm that's good what is it, gimme some more" I said trying to get the spoon. He pulled it back and I pouted.

"Its etouffee and no yah gotta wait until it's done now go sat down" he said. I glared at him and mushed his head.

"Stupid boy" I mumbled turning around to walk away.

"Sexy girl " he said and smacked my ass. I giggled and flipped him off.

As I was walking towards the living room vaeh was making her way to me. She stopped in her tracks and looked up at me.

"Please?" She asked looking at my stomach, my lips turned upward into a huge smile as I nodded.

"Of course baby" she smiled and held out both of her hands before placing them on my stomach and rubbing, ever time she did this the baby would move around or kick. I loved the fact that she was so interested in becoming a big sister. Once she got comfortable around me and Aug after maybe three weeks she started to actually talk, not much though I realized that she was just a quiet child who stayed to herself. She really loved cartoons and basketball which was odd for a child her age and being a girl, but I wasn't complaining she was the sweetest and smartest child I could ever ask for and she was beyond excited to know she'll soon be a big sister.

"Mommy when I meet baby?" She asked. I Chuckled as I grabbed her hand leading her back towards the sofa since my feet were killing me.

"We have a few more months baby and we don't know for sure it'll be a girl" I said. Being six months I could have easily found out the sex of the baby but despite August's and everyone else's protest I wanted to be surprised but I was thinking about doing a gender party for my baby shower so everyone would get off my damn back about it.

"It a girl" she nodded her head Vigorously causing me to laugh.

"Oh yeah and how are you so sure" I asked raising my eyebrows teasing.

"C'mere " she said beckoning with her hand for me to lean down. I did as she asked and she looked around like she was trying to make sure no one was watching.

"She told me when I sleep I see her" she whispered-- well tried to whisper. I leaned up and chuckled as she shook her head up and down with her eyes widened, she looked so serious it was adorable.

"Well what if it turns out to be a boy then what?" I asked leaning back into the sofa, she climbed into my lap and laid her head back while rubbing my stomach.

"That OK too" she shrugged then stuck her thumb in her mouth..

"Uuh uuh what I tell you bout that Vaeh " Aug came walking in holding a glass of water and my prenatal vitamin. She hurriedly took her dumb from her mouth and smiled at him innocently.
