She Still Wants You

Am Not Ready

Meagan's POV

............. 6 months ago .............

"Awwr congratulations, I can't wait to see how pregnancy looks on you. So what's the s*x of the child " it is one of my close and favorite clients Kimberly. She called to tell me she wants a photoshoot session on their anniversary which is about a month away.

"Its a boy, we are not yet decided on the name, buh you'll be one of the first people to know the official name."

Kimberly has always treasured me, our relationship is deeper than our cliental. Her Husband is a good friend of Oscar, and I got to personally know Kimberly when I was capturing their kitchen party and wedding events.

"Wow a baby boy that's great news I will let Oscar know about it, he'll be excited.... I have to go, we'll talk later" I hang up the call thinking to myself.

"So Kimberly is going to become a mother. Mmh I wonder how it feels being married, and having kids" I start picturing a family photo of my ideal family. Me, Oscar and my future kids Marcus and Lydia.

Oscar comes into the kitchen shirtless, deeply inhaling the aroma of the meal I was preparing. He comes to me to place his order.

"What's for breakfast baeb?"

Oscar asks as he hugs me from behind kissing my neck.

"Umm sausage, gravy and macaroni for the main meal. The gravy has minimal spices just the way you like it. And lettuce sandwichs accompanied by purejoy fruit juice for dessert" I say emphasizing the importance of having a nutritious breakfast which Oscar never seems to mind.

Oscar turns me to face him by my waist. I land into a kiss on my lips, he looks straight into my eyes "am lucky to have you baeb" he kisses me again lowering his hands from my waist to caressing my hips and butt.

Oscar's phone rang through the Bluetooth speakers, mentioning the caller's name afterwards. His lips were pulling my bottom lip like catapults. He stopped the kiss when he heard the name of the caller. He froze like he had received a call from a mean boss.

It was the name of a tech company, most likely one of Oscar's business partners. He rushed to go pick up the call leaving me longing for more as I bit my lips.

He disconnected his phone from the Bluetooth speaker before answering the call.

I continued to dish out the meal. Shortly the meal was ready, I took the plates to the living room where Oscar was still talking on the phone.

I took the second set of plates and I found Oscar tasting the food. He had finished talking on the phone.

I quickly joined him racing through the meal. We down the main meal in no time there was a little macaroni left. We were joking and eat simultaneously.

I switched to sandwiches when the macaroni were almost done. "Mmmm, there's nothing like starting a day with a tasty nutritious breakfast" I say after taking a bite of my sandwich.

Oscar chuckled "My beautiful Meagan and nutritious foods."

Oscar says picking his sandwich.

"Eating a strict nutritious meal is for children, at our age we eat what we want, that's why we are living on our own" Oscar says trying to make me loosen up on my attitude towards food nutrition value.

Oh yeah, speaking of kids I have to tell him about Richard's kid that's on the way "mmhm, mmhm" I murmur with some food in mouth to catch his attention, I quickly swallow my sandwich so I tell the good news properly. "Kimberly is expecting a baby boy."

"Mmm that's quick they're have been married for less than a year. And they're already expecting..." Oscar said in a a little bit surprised face. "So Richard is going to become a father? Wow that's great news... Mmm am not ready to be a father, I will be later not now, what do you think baeb" Oscar smiled digesting the news as he asked me when I want to have kids.

After hearing his plan of have kids in the near future made me holdback my answer. "I have always wanted to have kids, if only you knew how much I long for children you would have got on top of me to make one or twin." My inner voice replies Oscar in my mind as I think of what reply to give out loud.

"I think two years from now when we are married or we could make one during our engagement just weeks before our wedding" I want to have kids so badly but I won't do it without a ring on my finger.

My mom made me promise her that I won't have children outside a ringed relationship. I made that promise when my aunt's boyfriend left her with two kids after stayng together for 7 years.

I don't know exactly how much power a ring has over a relationship but since mom made me make that promise, I'll put my trust in the power of my promise.

"That's a good idea, having kids after marriage. Buh now two years feels too soon. Don't you think we need more time to enjoy and establish ourselves first before bring people into this world?" Oscar said before taking his last bite of his sandwich.

Hearing Oscar say that may made me realize that directly telling him that I want to get married and have kids as soon as possible won't work. I think Kate might have an idea on how I can convince him. I never thought this day would come but I think am in need of Kate's dirty tricks.

"Pwuu, Finally its about time" my naughty voice said speed dailing Kate in my mind. Shortly Oscar left for work and I remained home retouching photos. I don't have any appointments today.

So I decided to call Kate, so that she can come keep me company as I edit the photos and even teach me her tricks on how to get what I want from a man.

Kate is an expert with men, and she is also very good with people. She knows how to get what she wants from people especially men. She is talented at that.

She is running an averagely paying business that's around the cost of her rentals. So she often only pays for her rent with her hard earned money.  Her boyfriends and other guys who are proposing buy for her groceries and all the other things she want.

Ring ring ring... Kate's phone is ringing no one is picking up. I tried calling for the second and third time still there was no answer no one picking up the call. I wonder what Kate is doing that's keeping her from picking up my calls. 

I gave up calling Kate after the 7th call. "She is probably not woth her phone" I said convincing myself that my best friends can't ignore my calls like that. If she was busy she would have answered one of my calls to say that she is busy rather than ignoring my calls. She often only ignores calls of people she is avoiding like men that she lost interest in.

While retouching photos, I started thinking of plans I can use to make Oscar to engage me on my time. I tried watching "Think Like A Man, Act Like A Lady" both of them 1 and 2 and other romantic movies that might help me come with a plan. At least I had an idea on which type of man my Oscar falls under. Oscar is a hybrid of the dreamer and non-committed, I think he is more of a dreamer than he is poor at commitments. 

"It would have been easier with Kate around." I sighed after watching another movie. I had already finished retouching the photos and now I was having my lunch late in the afternoons. "When this movie is done, I should start preparing for supper, Oscar will be back soon." I said to myself. A few minutes before the movie finished Kate called me.

"Baby girl, so sorry I missed your calls. I had forgot my phone at home." 

"Pwuu, finally the person I was waiting for" I let out a sigh saying to myself. "Queen Kae, I am asking some advice about men." I said dragging myself to say the words properly since I've been joshing her for having a lot of guys.

"Phhh, what's happening baby girl?" Kate asked concerned, this is so not me to seek advice about. 

"I'll explain to you properly in person, how's tomorrow for you?" I can't start explaining everything on the phone. Besides Oscar can step in anytime. 

"Alright baby girl, will talk tomorrow" Kate agreed to meet tomorrow and I felt like I had already found the master plan. I felt better knowing Kate got my back. It might some cliché but I bet Kate's plan will work unless otherwise. 

Oscar came in from work just when I was hanging up. "Hey baeb, how was work? " I welcomed him helping him with the briefcase. 

"Pshhh, it was tiresome" Oscar replied taking a seat 

"Is there any food that's left am starving" He asked hovering over my lunch.

"Supper is not yet ready that's when I want to start preparing" I replied heading to the kitchen.....
