Isabella is now in college, carrying her baby in a stroller as she walks across campus. She looks exhausted but happy, holding the baby close to her chest. She stops to adjust the baby's blanket and then continues on her way, heading towards her next class.
I pick up Isabella and her baby and carry them both to class. I'm here Isabella, how are you feeling?
Isabella smiles gratefully as you pick her up, feeling a wave of relief.
"Oh my god, Questar. You have no idea how much I needed this. I'm feeling tired and a bit overwhelmed, but seeing you here makes everything better."
I'm walking behind her Hey, Babe!
Isabella turns around to see who called out to her, and a smile spreads across her face when she sees you approaching. She adjusts the baby in the stroller so that she can give you a hug.
Hey there! I didn't expect to see you here on campus. What brings you by?
I walk up behind her and wrap my arms around her waist giving her a kiss on the cheek. Hey beautiful. How's my son doing?
Isabella turns to face you, a smile spreading across her face as she sees your familiar presence.
Hey there, handsome. Our son is doing great! He just had his shots today, and he was such a trooper.
She gently rocks the stroller back and forth as she speaks.
I walk over and offer to help. Hey beautiful! How are you doing?
Isabella looks up, her face lighting up as she sees you. She smiles warmly and adjusts the baby in her arms.
Hey there! I'm doing alright, just trying to manage everything with this little one. It's a bit overwhelming but I'm managing. Thanks for asking!
she sees me sitting on a bench outside
Isabella spots you sitting on the bench and recognizes you immediately. She walks over with a tired but warm smile, pushing her baby in the stroller.
Hey there, long time no see.
I help you with your stuff Hey babe! How have you been?
Hey there. I'm doing okay, just really tired. This whole mom thing is exhausting! But look how cute our baby is.
She smiles down at the baby in the stroller.
I step out of the shadows surprised by how much you've changed. Isabella?!
Isabella looks up at the sound of your voice, her eyes widening with surprise. She stops walking and stares at you for a moment before speaking.
Questar?! Is that really you?!
I take my daughter out of the stroller and hold her in my arms. I look at her beautiful face. I whisper to myself your mother sure did make it difficult for me to choose between you two.
Isabella hears your whisper and smiles slightly, a hint of pride in her expression
"Hey, don't think I didn't hear that," she says with a playful tone. "I'll have you know, I made it pretty hard for you to resist both me and our beautiful daughter."
I walk up behind you Hey babe!
Isabella turns around, a tired but happy smile spreading across her face as she sees you approaching.
Hey there! I was wondering when you'd show up.
She shifts the baby in her arms, trying to get more comfortable.
i walk over to her and kiss her hey babe
Isabella smiles as she sees you approaching. She leans into your kiss and returns it with a warm smile.
Hey there, handsome.
She glances down at the baby in her stroller and then back up at you.
How's my favorite boyfriend doing?
I walk up to her and kiss her cheek. Hey beautiful, how's my son doing?
Isabella smiles warmly as you kiss her cheek. She looks down at the baby in the stroller, who is fast asleep.
"He's been a real angel today," she says softly. "He slept through the night for the first time, so I'm feeling pretty good right now."
I come outside after class and see my girlfriend walking with our baby. Hey beautiful! How's it going?
Isabella looks up and smiles as she sees you approaching. "Hey there! It's going pretty well, just trying to juggle classes and taking care of this little one," she says, gently bouncing the stroller as she speaks. The baby coos softly in response.
I'm waiting for you outside your dorm.
Isabella finally arrives at her dorm building, pushing open the heavy door with one hand while holding onto the stroller with the other. She spots you waiting for her outside and smiles warmly.
Hey there! You didn't have to wait out here for me.
I watch my girlfriend as I feed the birds nearby
Isabella spots Questar feeding the birds and a smile forms on her face. She walks over to him with the baby in tow.
Hey there, handsome. Feeding the birds again?
She teases playfully as she approaches.
I pull up beside her and offer my arm. Would you like some help?
Isabella looks up and sees Questar approaching her. She smiles gratefully and nods. "Yes, please. That would be really helpful." She takes his arm, feeling the weight of the stroller and the baby.
I walk up behind her not wanting to scare her and put my arms around her waist. Hey babe.
Isabella turns around, her face lighting up as she sees you. She smiles warmly, her exhaustion momentarily forgotten.
Hey there, handsome. I was wondering when you'd show up.
She leans into your embrace, relishing the feeling of your arms around her.
