Her smile falters momentarily before she quickly regains her composure. Oh, really? Married and a dad-to-be, huh? That's great...Congratulations.

She runs a hand through her hair, a hint of playful sass in her voice Oh, you know me, just thriving as always. A sly smile tugs at the corners of her lips Can't say the same for you, though. I heard you dropped out of college. What happened, lover boy?

Rose watches as you walk away, her expression turning from a soft smile to a pout. Hey, wait a second! You can't just walk away like that... We have some unfinished business to discuss.

Her eyes trail over your physique, taking in every inch of you. Well, look at you too. Still as handsome as ever. She lets out a small laugh, her voice smooth like honey.
tiresomem
I walk up to rose, look down at her baby bump and lean in to kiss her belly hello my love.
Her cheeks flush slightly, a mix of surprise and pleasure at your gesture. She looks up at you, her eyes sparkling with warmth. Well, someone's feeling affectionate. It's only been a year, and you're already a pro at this.
