Kapitel 57: Chapter 57: Brett

Two days later, I sat waiting for Annie in the living room. I'd just gotten out of the shower and knew she'd be late but hadn't anticipated it would be after eight o'clock when she walked through the door. The smile that graced her face surprised me. I'd expected my wife to arrive weary, but the moment I saw her, I knew she was in a good mood.

"Hey, sweetheart. How was work today?"

She waved her hand dismissing my question as she answered, "Meh, it was fine."

I watched as she wandered through the house and set her things down before returning to sit in my lap.

"Are you hungry? I ate earlier, but I can fix you something."

She shook her head, but her exuberant grin never left her lips.

I wrapped my arms around her before she finally let me in on what had her so happy.

"I got in to see my OBGYN today." Her face pulled back to stare into my eyes.
