This morning Edith and Mirana left for school without eating much, but Ochana and Chad had lots of time to spend alone. Toasts, egg and bacon - and each other. Chad had been promoted, and now he would normally work nights. He was happy with the Entertainment career, although still working on the floor, it was a good way to meet lots of people. He is much more outgoing than Ochana.
- Here's a morning kiss for you, Chad!
- Oh, number five, I think! he laughed, but then he got serious.
- You are fantastic, Ochana, I'm so happy about everything we do! he said.
- Oh, Chad!
Ochana is romantic, but now that they already had the girls and were expecting a third child, most of the days were spent on daily chores. They still found time for small romantic moments, nearly every day.
- Oh, what a lovely day! Ochana moved slowly, the stomach had grown quite big lately. She had suggested for them to take a walk, and they both knew it wouldn't be far. Just a few steps, actually :)
- I really hope we can buy some chairs for the terrace, soon, she said. - The girls should spend more time outdoors!
They walked over to a public bench nearby.
- You know, I think we should plan a trip somewhere as soon as the baby is here! Maybe we could visit Ona Rosewood at Oasis Springs?
- Sure, why not? said Chad. - I hear they grow tomatoes at Oasis Springs, I wish we could grow them here, too, I'd love to eat fresh tomatoes!
- I'll check with Ona. I don't really know how big their house is, but hopefully we can stay a couple nights!
- How about going real far, like to another country, just you and me? Such a pity that none of our relatives live in this region, or they could look after the kids.
- Sounds great, dear. Sometime we'll do just that! But right now I don't think we could afford a real vacation. And first we'll welcome number three.
- Would you like more kids after that, Chad asked.
- Well, Ochana said. - Three is all that's required, so I'll be fine.
- Required? Chad asked. - I'm not pushing you, am I? I love the kids, but I never demanded a third child!
Well, of course Chad didn't know that Ochana referred to the Secret Mission's Rules & Directions. Ochana should better watch her words, thankfully he didn't ask again and they returned to the garden.
- What a mess, Chad sighed. He's a neat freak, and couldn't stand all those puddles in the garden.
- Just don't break that plant, Ochana warned. She had tried her best to improve some of the plants' quality, but couldn't tell for sure what plants she worked on. The garden work had to be paused until the birth. Weeding and watering, okay, but organizing, no.
- If only the girls were older, they could help gardening!
Ochana called Ona Rosewood. They were roommates at the Sims by Numbers Show where Ochana won and Ona came second. Ona married a guy at Oasis Springs, and it turned out they had two kids already.
- Sounds great, Ona! Listen, we discussed visiting Oasis Springs shortly, maybe we can stop by? Sure! Yes? His brother still occupies half the house? Oh, well, we could just stay for one day then, that would be fun too! After the birth, yes.
Edith and Miranda returned from school, and Chad decided to do push-ups in front of the TV.
- Dad, we already know you're a champion, you don't need to do that now...
Miranda, eating her dinner while watching TV, found it hard to focus on the TV show while her dad was teasing the floor like that.
Then Edith jumped up, she seems to be the most social of the two girls. She pulled out her cellphone and aimed for Ochana. - Cheese! said Edith.
- Oh, not now, said Ochana, knowing the girl was not taking her picture, but also knowing that Edith found it funny that she misunderstood the camera direction.
- Ha ha, it's not you, mom! I was taking our picture, me and dad! Ha ha!
Her twin sister Miranda was not as much amused. The same old joke, this happened last week, too - duh!
- Ha ha, Edith went on. - I'm sure that if anyone would ever care to take mom's photo, she would not even notice, she only notices if she is not on the photo!
Ochana had to laugh, but well, had Edith just been a tad sarcastic? Or was it pure randomness? Probably just hormones, Ochana thought to herself. Being social wasn't the best thing while carrying this huge stomach. What if they had twins again?
She wanted to sneak up to the Secret Office in the attic, but could she deal with all those stairs? Probably not. At least not without a lot of attention from Chad. She had to keep the office a secret, and admitted it would be smarter to wait.
A boring day? Not really, because she also enjoyed relaxing. And there was no better excuse for a nap on the bed.
Hopefully the baby would be there soon...
