Jude's POV

After the doctor, my amorous and caring husband accompanied me until we reached to my working place as we seperated with a sensual and priceless kiss, followed by a tight and warm hug, thereafter establishing myself inside the retro restaurant as it was empty like a graveyard. 

What it struck me first was the entire silence as well! I am completely convinced that my boss Jonathan Smith is in his office, doing his task as a responsible, studious and wise leader as usually. 

Anyway I went in the locker room as I took off my leather jacket, hanging it on the hang, putting on the apron with the restaurant's logo, consequently leaving the locker room by getting to back to work as initially I was startled by Jonathan as he was standing behind me, smelling his mint breath that tickles my smooth and sensitive skin.  I rotated my face, facing him directly as our eyes met, noticing his open minded smile.

-Good morning, Jonathan!- I greeted him warmly as I withdrawn with a handful centimetres away from him due to our too close proximity that seperates us. Moreover, my cheeks were heating due to the awkward situation.

-Good morning, Judy! You seem nervous. *studying my face carefully as he wrinkled his nose and lips in the same time, his velvet Afro-American accent was velvet, arching an eyebrow* What's wrong?- He posed the question in stern way, immune to not leaving it unaswered on the moment.

-I just...went...to doctor, Johnny!- I stuttered timidly as my heart beats were as swift as the quickest animal in the world, wearing jumpy smile across my flushed face. The ambience was actually intense rather than serene.

-And?- Johnny insisted to keep on with my speech.

-I am...*my cheeks carried on to heat as flames, burning my face, sensing the shame inside my self that gnaws in a slow pace, gradually my jittery soul shatters on millions of small pieces* pregnant!- I uttered with blissful voice as I dimly lowered my head in the same time.

-You are pregnant? That's amazing to hear it, Jude! Congratulations!- He grabbed my hand as he stretched it to kiss it lightly as a gentleman. His congratulation meant truly a lot to me, if I need to be frank. His smile grew rapidly as his midnight black eyes glowed.

-Aww, thank you so much, Johnny! That really signifies to me a lot! I have never been that lucky, besides gleeful to have such marvelous and fabulous husband who loves and cares for me, granting me to carry in my belly for 6-7 more straight months a little copy-paste of us, either acquiring more his mother or his father's traits. - My smile was rather hysterical and radiating charm, certainly visible satisfaction. Lastly the pressure vaporized signifcantly as the atmopshere regulated to its harmonic and the balance itself.

-No problem! I am extremely delighted to hear that you have such extraordinary husband like Timothy with whom you have down to earth and unique family. I pressume that your baby is going to be marvelous...just like you, Jude.- Jonathan complimented the new life that lives inside my belly for 2 months.

-Tim is deliriously extraordinary man and husband, you are absolutely right! I don't doubt that, of course. 

At this moment, Charlotte and Ramona entered inside the restaurant as they greeted us by waving in the same time, swapping a friendly and warm embrace with them as friends and colleagues in the same time as they were far rejoiced to behold me again. Especially today! 

-Oh hi Jude! It is such pleasure to see you again. - The both young women stated in one voice along as their pleasant, quaint and velvet voices were fulfilling my soul like a crystal limpid.

-Hello young ladies! - Our boss saluted them warmly, exhibiting his softer side with a broad and agreeable smile across his lips.

-Hi girls! I am so rejoiced to see you again either too. - All of a sudden my nervousness  vanished like a phantom of the fear.

-It is our too... - The both young ladies didn't continue their sentence which was interrupted, thanks to Jonathan.

-Ramona and Charlotte! The locker room, NOW! - My boss said with stern voice as they executed his command in obediant way and guilty smile, excusing themselves, meantime the first clients crossed the threshold at last.

I got back to work as well as once the clients took seats, I gave to each of them the menu to take a good look at it, taking their time to think and choose wisely what they actually want to order.

Sometime later... 

It was 1PM in the afternoon. I was outside with Charlotte and Ramona, taking a brief break from our work as I was eating a red apple whilst Charlotte was about to light her cigarette as I interrupted her, astonishing her with my speech:

-Don't do it! It will kill my baby if you do it once! -I stated with grave, however, a little annoyed voice as I rubbed my 2nd month bump, looking down at my slightly swollen belly. 

Initially the both girls gave me a puzzled look. Then they tilted their heads as they noticed my mildly tumid belly with widely opened eyes, dropped jawlines as they were like "Whaat?", being totally astounded once they saw that I carry another life inwardly with myself.

-You are pregnant? Congratulations, Jude! We didn't know that, dear.- We immediately hugged each other in firmly and amorous way as well.

-Aww, thank you a lot, gals! I didn't know that until the last few days. *exhaling sharply* It is such a God bless for me to have my own baby finally. - I said with ecstatic voice as we broke off the hug a couple of seconds ago.

-You don't need to thank us. You are always welcome, Judy! It is such felicity phenomenon to have a child. Even a blessing! - Charlotte uttered with a large smile across her plump face.

-That's right! We are so glad for you for that you are pregnant. We can't wait to see your angel on this world once it establishes. - Ramona stroked my long curly honey hair as I like when somebody who I know personally, touches my hair and strokes it in the same time.

-I can't wait either too!- I exclaimed with ginormous pride as my smile turned into a grin.
