The late-afternoon sun had already dipped low, turning the sky outside into layers of soft peach and lavender.

Inside the house, Elize was curled in the corner of the big sectional sofa with a half-read novel resting open on her lap.

Ravene sprawled beside her with head tipped back against the cushions and one arm flung over her eyes like she was napping.

Yverine sat cross-legged on the rug in front of them, scrolling lazily through her phone.

But then, they heard the low rumble of tires on gravel.

Elize lifted her head first, "Seems like they’re back..." she murmured, glancing toward the tall windows. "And it’s almost evening."

Ravene cracked one eye open "Finally."

Yverine sat up straighter, "They were gone forever. Wonder what took so long."

Elize unfolded her legs and stood, smoothing the front of her soft sweater as she walked toward the front door.

Her hand was already on the knob when it swung open from the other side.

Brandon stepped through first, and before she could even say hello, he swept her into his arms and lifted her clean off the floor in a joyful hug.

"Elizeeeeeee."

Elize let out a startled giggle, her arms automatically wrapping around his neck as her feet dangled for a second. "What happened, dear?"

Brandon set her down and looked at her "Elize... I’m gonna be a father. Florence is four weeks pregnant."

"WHAT!" x 3

Elize’s hands flew to her mouth.

Ravene shot upright so fast she nearly toppled off the couch while Yverine’s phone clattered onto the rug.

"Huh?"

"What? Florence is pregnant?"

"T-This is insane news,"

Florence stepped through the doorway behind Brandon, and Ravene was the first to move.

She threw her arms around Florence, hugging her tightly.

"I’m so happy for you, Floooo. Oh my gods, a baby? In this house? With all of us?"

Florence laughed and hugged her back just as hard "Yes."

Elize was still blinking like she hadn’t fully processed it.

She stepped forward slowly and cupped Florence’s face in both hands.

"Four weeks?" she whispered.

Florence nodded "Four weeks. We just came from Martha’s. Blood test confirmed it. Strong hCG levels. Everything looks good so far."

Elize let out a shaky laugh, then pulled Florence into her arms, burying her face in the crook of her neck.

Yverine reached them last and simply wrapped her arms around both Florence and Ravene, squeezing them into one big, messy group hug.

"I can’t believe it," she whispered.

Looking at them, Brandon’s gaze softened "Where are Jiyeon and Dhayun?"

Yverine turned to him and uttered "They went out for shopping."

"WHATTT!"

"AUNT FLORENCE IS PREGNANT?"

Dhayun and Jiyeon quickly sat around Florence on the couch and hugged her.

"Oh my goddddd... we are having a baby!"

Florence let out a bright, helpless giggle, and her arms came up to hug them both back as best she could while sandwiched between two very enthusiastic young women.

"Thank you, dears,"

Dhayun pulled back her head "Four weeks? That’s so early! Are you feeling okay? Any nausea yet? Do you need me to get you ginger tea? Or crackers? Or-"

Jiyeon cut in "Or a pillow? Do you want to lie down? Should we prop your feet up? I read somewhere that helps with early pregnancy swelling even if it’s not visible yet-"

Florence laughed again and gently disentangled herself enough to sit properly on the couch.

"I’m fine, I promise. Just... tired. And happy. Very, very happy."

Dhayun let out a dreamy sigh and flopped backward against the cushions, "A baby. In this house. With all of us. I’m going to spoil them rotten."

Jiyeon nodded vigorously, already pulling out her phone. "I’m starting a Pinterest board right now. Gender-neutral nursery ideas. Soft pastels. Tiny socks. Oh my gods, tiny socks."

Florence laughed, her head tipping back against the couch "You girls are going to overwhelm me before I even hit the second trimester."

Meanwhile in the kitchen, soft kissing noises echoed in the room.

Pulling back from the kiss, Elize whispered against Brandon’s lips "When are you going to impregnate me then?"

With a chuckle, he replied "I will try... We still got some time, right?"

With a nod, Elize replied "Yeah, we still got some time..."

Rheanne slowly blinked her eyes and looked at the young man sleeping on the bed while she was sitting on the floor with her head resting on the bed.

"Oh... did I fall asleep here?"

She glanced up at ’Brandon’s’ face and her eyes grew tender "Haa... just a bit more. I have waited for years, I can wait a bit more..."

As she spoke, she glanced at the silver ring on her ring finger.

And then her gaze shifted to the same ring on the young man’s finger.

Her smile trembled at the edges and she took a deep breath as she intertwined her fingers with his "...You are such a..."

Rheanne closed her eyes.

A single tear slipped free, sliding down her cheek and falling onto the sheet between them.

Her thumb brushed over the back of his hand, tracing the familiar shape of the ring she had placed there herself.

She lowered her head and gently kissed the ring "Good night, my love..."

But in the next instant, her eyes widened and a soft smile took over her face.

She instantly appeared in the spacious hall and glanced at Brandon, who was sitting on the stairs.

Noticing her presence, Brandon looked up at her and smiled "Hello..."

Rheanne stepped down and sat beside him on the stairs.

Looking at her, Brandon spoke "Today... I came here with good news."

"My wife is pregnant."

Rheanne blinked faintly ’Florence’s baby? It’s already that time, huh... he told me about it... then yeah, I just have to wait a bit more.’

A faint, wistful smile curved her lips "Oh... I am happy for you."

With a faint chuckle, he leaned back and looked up "Feels very strange... knowing that I am going to be a father."

Upon hearing this, Rheanne’s gaze lowered "Then I wish you have lots of kids... and get the feeling of being a dad."

"Hahahaha..."
