We’re going to need a bigger place, but I’m scared to pull that trigger and bring the topic up. That’s a big commitment. And I’ve seen how quickly commitments can fall apart. Even ones that were supposedto be forever.
Things have been good. Better than good. But nothing is ever guaranteed. A lot could still change in six months.
I decide to hold off on that conversation. I can start looking, see what’s on the market, and bring it up once we’re past the twenty-four-week mark. There might not be anything good in this area right now anyway. I haven’t house hunted in a few years.
But that’s easy to fix. I find a real estate app and wait for it to download.
Liam texts me, breaking me out of my anxious planning for the future with a welcome distraction.
Liam
Good morning kitten
How’d you sleep?
Kat
Good
I have energy again
Probably the first night I’ve slept less than 12 hours
You need the rest
You’re growing a human
Are you coming over today?
I was supposed to meet up with Jen but she canceled
The baby is sick
So I get to see your pretty face today?
You’ve seen my pretty face four times this week
Are you sure you’re not getting sick of me hanging around?
Never
Besides I have something for you
?
Dick? lol
You naughty girl
We got a good deal on eggplants this morning
Eggplant fries are the day’s special side item
How could I possibly say no to that?
And I’ll give you as much dick as you want too
Howselfless of you
