"So are we going to talk about you hyphenating your name? I don't see the problem."

"There is no problem," Drena said. "I just don't want to. You didn't."

"That's different."

"How is it different, Mommy?" Drena asked, looking at her mom, Judy, on Facetime. She studied her graying hair and wondered if she'd let it grow out this time instead of dying it.

"I still can't believe you got your grandmother going to an island," she went on.

"Mommy, Granny just went on a cruise three months ago. She's not that old and she gets around fine. You the only one complaining about it."

Judy sighed. "I guess, child. I expect a grandbaby soon."

"Mommy, I got another call coming in," Drena lied. "I'll call you back."

Drena sighed as she ended the call, tossing her phone on Darius' couch before reaching for her laptop. She was working from home today, well his home, because she didn't feel too well.

Drena hated not being in the office, but felt better now that they had Cassidy. She didn't want to leave Lacey to do a lot on her own, but they could handle it. Between FACE getting more coverage, her still freelancing as a stylist and doing her social media content, Drena felt like she didn't have much time to herself, let alone to plan a wedding. She thanked God Darius suggested a wedding planner.

She rolled his eyes as he began to chuckle. "Your mom is something else."

"You're not the one she's driving crazy," Drena said, leaning back on the arm of his couch

"You're not the one she's driving crazy," Drena said, leaning back on the arm of his couch. She lifted her arm to rest on it while putting her head against her hand. She couldn't help but blush as Darius leaned over and kissed her knee. She had both of her legs stretched out on him. "You have to work today?"

"I got a few jobs I may take a look at," he said. Drena nodded.

"You thought more about renting a space?"

He shrugged. "Do we really need two commercial rents to pay?"

Drena smirked. "You're already finding jobs for your geeky friends," she said. "Might as well cap off it."
