When high-school sweethearts Joanna Guelas and Cruz Forman are reunited over an interview, their once lost love flame is reignited. As they enter unexplored caves of satisfaction, they are thrown into the deepest pits of hells, with the flames of th...
It's the 27th of June. I reminsce about our little bubble: The capital of the Artic, Tromsø, is located right in the middle of Northern Norway. We spent week one of our honeymoon there, in Norway. Whale-watching was my second favorite thing that we did- the first being fucking my husband under the northern lights. We had a steaming shower afterwards.

In Bergen, the second-largest city in Norway, we explored the KODE Art museum, and got lost in the squiggly cobblestone streets. We toured the Western Fjords, Cruz's favourite. We visited Hardangerfjord- where we went to the mountain plateau- Trollunga, in the south. Skiing in Geilo, Eastern Norway was so fun. Cruz, was having a million panic attacks as he watched from the bottom.

We went hiking and cycling in Jotunheimen, a national park. We landed in Ireland on the 13th. I was feeling so nauseous every morning since we landed. Maybe it was something I ate, but I didn't let it stop us- stop him- from having a great honeymoon. The Cliffs of Moher and The Giant's Causeway tours were breath-taking. My camera roll is filled wiith pictures from there.

We stayed in a 5-star hotel in Dublin City, the capital of Ireland, for the week that we were there. I ate alot of seafood. I couldn't stop. Cruz laughed at my undying urge to consume all the prawns in Ireland.

Rosaline calls. The name change has been approved and the daycare is up and running. We call Steph. No news on Esmay. It's been 4 weeks... Finally, we landed in Scotland. Something isn't right. When Cruz ordered a seafood platter, I throw up. I can't stand to look at it. He insists we go home. NO. I'm fine. We visited Dean Village in Edinburgh, then spent our last days of our honeymoon on Eilean Shona- an island on the west coast of Scotland. A beautiful place.

I'd like to move there when I retire. I have to go get checked. I told him that I'm going to get lunch. I told him to sleep. I went to the pharmacy. She asks if I'm pregnant. Pregnant? No. I took- Shit. I haven't taken my shot since we went to Sydney. I bought two tests. I'll take them when I'm home. We just got married. I can't be pregnant... "Jo..."Cruz snaps me out of my daydream. "Hi." "Hi... Are you okay? Are you feeling sick?'' I realise I'm holding my stomach. "I'm fine." "Steph and Lauren want to see us when we get home." "I'm tired, baby. Can't they see us tomorrow?" I'm anything but tired. "I already asked, they say it's urgent. I said I'd meet with them, because you're not well. I could do that, if you want." "Yes please, baby." "Okay." He wakes up and kisses me. After a long flight and a drive that seems like it was two days long, we're finally home. Tyler, Graham and Liv are standing with "welcome home" banners, that look like they were made by pre-schoolers. They hug us. Liv and I are upstairs. "I might be pregnant." I tell her about everything. I fidget with my wedding band. "Hey, things happen for a reason, Jo." "Yeah, I know, but we just got married. I have no idea what's going on with Esmay. What if he doesn't want it?" "Oh, he'll want it. He loves you. And he'll love your baby." She hugs me and the three of them leave. I hear Steph and Lauren enter, so I close the bedroom door and retrieve the tests. Here we go... I pace up and down in the bathroom, waiting, watching the two sticks. One beeps. The other one beeps and follows. I flip them over. I put them in my pocket and I hear Steph and Lauren leave. "Hey." He says. "Hi." "So, I have news." "So do I." "Okay, you first." "No, you." "Okay.. Okay..." He pulls out adoption papers from behind him. "We got her?" I'm in disbelief. "WE GOT HER!!!!" And he picks me up and swings me. She's ours. Esmay Forman. "Wait... What's this?" He pulls out the sticks from my pocket. He glares at the two positive pregnancy tests
