Zade 
Zara had reappeared with the birthday girl and the whole place was filled with my friends and we had a nice time. 
"Hey." Zara says as she walked over putting Valentina down. "So Hannah spoke to you." 
"Yep." I say. "Can we not make this into a thing today." 
"Yeah. My lips are sealed." She says. "I will shout at you later." 
"Thanks?" I say to my little sister as she held Valentina's hand. Valentina was taking steps and was walking more confidently. I couldnt believe she was one?
"Happy birthday Valentina!" Mckenzie says as he picked her up. "You are so cute." Tara says as she squeezed her cheeks. Valentina had a permanent play mate with their child Amelia. It was nice to have friends who were parents. 
"Hey guys." Amira says appearing. Younes was somewhere and I was surprised she still came as they were fighting I guess.
"Hey." I say getting up. "Happy birthday to the birthday girl. She is so adorable." She says as she looks at Valentina. "Where shall I put her gifts?" 
"Just here is fine thank you." Zara says walking away with her. I see Younes eyes following her across the room as he stood with Kain. 
Amira returns and looks at me. "You have a whole one year old!" She says. "How crazy?" 
"I know right?" I chuckle. "Shes still in one piece." 
"Youre a good father." She says staring at me. "Did you always want kids?" 
"Didnt even cross my mind to be honest." I say and she nods. "And you instantly just loved her?" 
"Yeah." I say wondering where this was going. Everyone else was in conversation and I was trying to seek help from anyone. 
"You think Younes would be a good dad?" 
"Eh?" I say. "He wouldnt be the first person I would call to babysit? Maybe not even fifth." I chuckle but she doesnt laugh. "But he is a good person and loves his family. Ofcourse he would be." I say and she nods. "You should know... look how beautifully he treats you." 
"He said he doesnt want kids." She says. "Well you guys have time to figure it out?" 
"You would think so..." She says. "Eh are you telling me something here?" 
"I am... youre the only parent I know thats in our friendship circle so I thought I could get your view." 
"Wait... you are actually?" I say and she gives me a look to be quiet. "Okay. Eh... congrats." I say and she gives me a small smile. "Im doomed. Were not married, my parents will freak out. So will his." 
"Is he who you want to be with forever?" I ask
"Yeah." 
"Okay so I am sure he will make it all okay. He is Younes Kattan?" I say and she nods. "Dont tell him until I can okay?" 
"Okay." I say and she nods. She walks over to Younes hugging him. He just looks a little confused and looks at me. 
"Hey." I say seeing Hannah appear. "Made it out of those cartoon pyjamas." 
"Shut up." She chuckles. "Valentina is one. Where is she?"
"Mckenzie was playing with her just a few seconds ago." I say. I sit down next to Zara who hands me a margarita. "So are you good?"
"Yeah I guess. I got a kid already whats two?" I say 
"Hannah isn't sure if she wants to keep it." Zara says. "Dont get your hopes up."
