The Bird has got wings - страница 44

"Fine. Before you found out about our child, you used me like the last whore, were cruel to me and kept me quiet with your caresses, if you can call them that, of course. But now you will carry me in your arms and protect me like a fragile and most precious treasure!" – Vivian thought contentedly.

– Don't worry if it's a girl," Jeremy said in a solemn tone. – I will cherish her. She'll look like you and grow up to be just as beautiful. You know that our children will be fire-haired like you, don't you?

– I know, darling, how could I not know! I got my hair colour from my father, who someone even called "Red Cowell"! – Vivian chuckled at this and, gently stroking her spouse's cheek, quietly added: – I'm so happy. We are going to have a child… Our little one! Soon his laughter will fill this big house, and we will watch his awkward movements, smiles, pranks… You are right: we will not give him to a nurse and babysitters! We will care for him and raise him or her ourselves! It's such happiness!
