Cold Showers — Chapter 41

After a few seconds of silence, Jayda spoke. "I'm sorry for all that you went through, I'm sorry for not forgiving you sooner and I hope you forgive me too."

"I'm willing to give us a chance. I've never been good when it comes to commitment or any form of relationship but I promise to give my all to make us work. Please, just don't break my heart."

Sebastian smiled. He brought her hand to his lips and placed a soft kiss on it. "I promise, I won't break your heart." He assured. "So we are cool now?" He asked hopefully.

Jayda nodded.

"Thank you." Sebastian leaned closer to her and kissed her forehead.

Jayda reached for her handbag on the passenger's seat and took out the envelope which had the ultrasound pictures in them. There were six copies. She took three copies for herself and handed Sebastian the remaining three copies in the envelope.

"I will send one copy to my parents. They are really excited to be grandparents." Seb said and then a question popped in his head.

"How did your parents take the news?" He asked Jayda.

"Bring a retired nurse, My mom saw the signs in me. She knew I was pregnant when I refused to admit it to myself but she and my Dad are okay with it."

Sebastian nodded.

"I want to show you something. Promise me you won't freak out." Sebastian said shyly.

Jayda smiled, "I'll try not to."

Sebastian rolled his left sleeves up a bit. Jayda saw that he had a bracelet on his wrist. It was a matching bracelet of the one he sent to her along with the necklace she was currently putting on. But his bracelet had some words written in a foreign language engraved on it.

But that was not what Sebastian was trying to show her. He had her name tattooed on his wrist.

Jayda chuckled in disbelief. She reached for his wrist and ran her fingers over her name. It was written in tiny cursive words. "Jayda my love."

She could not help with the smile that overtook her face.

"I initially went for a haircut with Caleb, my best friend. We made a stop at a tattoo shop because he wanted to get one. So he forced me to get one too. You were all I could think of so I chose to tattoo your name on me. That way, everyone will know I'm taken." He said proudly.

"No one has ever had a tattoo of my name. Not even Lilian that claims she loves me so much. I love it, Thanks."

Before she could ask him what the words engraved on his bracelet meant, they were interrupted by Jayda's phone. She had an incoming call from her Secretary who informed her one of her clients whom she had an appointment with was around.

Jayda actually lost track of time. It was already past noon.

"Sorry, I've got a client waiting for me."

"It's fine. I should return to the office too. "

He looked into her eyes and spoke. "Drive safe and please take care of yourself. Don't forget to call me if you need anything." She nodded.

Sebastian leaned closer to her, He kissed her cheek before he got down from her car with the envelope which had his own copy of ultrasound pictures. He watched as she drove away before making his way to his car.
