I sometimes wondered how Parker could afford these things on his prior salary and I felt guilty that he was spending so much money on me. Sure it was on us, but I doubt he’d book the nicest hotel in Newport Beach, and another swanky place in Tulum just for himself.
He told me one night that he’s saved almost all of his money his entire life. He never had the need or desire to spend it on myself, but thought one day he might just get incredibly lucky and meet the right woman and then he’d want to spend it on him and “his woman” as he said.
And his woman is exactly what I am. And he is “my man.”
My perfect policeman, or police veteran I should say. And now my perfect professor.
And my perfect partner who showed me the perfect life and even introduced me to a line of work I never would have considered. And one I’m enjoying so much that I still can’t believe someone pays me to do it. That’s the true definition of a successful businesswoman in my opinion. Doing something for the greater good of society that you love and would have done for free. But you get paid for it!
But there are a lot of different definitions of a successful businesswoman. I’ve met so many amazing women in my line of work and at the university. I’m just in awe of the female spirit and dedication to making it in the business world just as much as we women are making our houses homes. Homes full of happy children.
All the business success in the world is great, but no matter what I feel like nothing can top the feeling of being a mother.
But I guess I can’t say for sure. At least not for another month.
But if it’s anything like I expect it’s going to be the best thing that ever happened to me…on an equal level as getting married to my possessive professor Parker.
The man who watches over me and will soon watch over our child. The man who possesses every positive quality about a man I could ever hope for, and in doing so he possesses my heart…forever.
He looks at my sketch again. “I love the detail you gave him in the eyes,” he says before looking back at me. “And more importantly…I love you. Every…single…thing…about…you.”
He leans in and we kiss.
“And I love you. And us,” I say putting my hands on my stomach.
“Us,” he says, placing his hands over the top of mine.
The kicking stops. Our baby knows we’re here, as close as we can be to holding him. Placing our hands on my stomach is the best we can do…but in a month from now.
When our little bundle of joy arrives he, or she, is going to get real hugs. So many that our baby will feel like it’s glued to my arms. Because that’s where our baby will stay. In my arms.
Parker’s hands come up off mine and he wraps them around me carefully.
Just like I’m in Parker’s arms. Now and forevermore.
