Chapter 32 - In A State Of Flux

Rosa brings Athena to their room to sound off the little girl's feelings about having a brother or a sister. She lets Athena sits in the couch. She picks the folders at the side table and hands it to Graysen. He gives her a questioning look.

"Those are my contracts. I have to trouble you to check it on how to avoid the breach of contract. After all it's your fault for getting me pregnant." She puns to make him feel a bit guilty. She smirks turning to sit beside Athena.

She puts Athena on her lap and caresses the little girl's hair. "Athena, do you like to have a brother or a sister?"

Athena smiles at her. She just nods.

Rosa takes her small hands and puts it on her stomach. "Athena, meet your little brother or sister. Piccolo (little one) she is your big sister Athena."

She takes Athena's arms around her and tucks the little girl to her body. Graysen glimpses at them in between reviewing the documents. He lay down the folders at the side table and massages his temples.

He calls Athena and Rosa, "Alright girls, time to sleep."

Graysen pats the bed and Athena jumps on it. She tucks herself in the middle of her father and Rosa.

Brie fetches Rosa the next day. They drive to visit the Desta villa. Rosa calls her mother that they are coming over. When they arrive, Draco and Dravio are also present.

Rosa runs to her mother giving her a big hug. In her excitement she blurts out, "Mama, mama, guess what? I'm pregnant! I'm having a baby."

Rosa hugs her father and her brother sitting at the garden chair. Draco pats Rosa's arms and kisses her cheek.

Dravio pulls Rosa to sit still. Dravio holds Rosa's hand and says, "Sorella (sister), settle down. Don't get over stimulated. It's bad for your baby."

Violet is so happy to hear it. "You hear that Draco? You're going to be a grandfather. That's good news Rosa mia. You made mine and your father's day so pleasant."

Brie slumps at the chair next to Rosa, "Good news for your, bad news for me."

Draco comments, "Are you planning to be an actress Brie? You are acting like a villainess early in the day."

"Oh, don't mind her. She's overwhelmed with my contract commitments and my pregnancy," Rosa says.

She faces Brie, "Brianna, my lovely and wonderful manager, I've already checked there's no pregnancy clause in the contract. Graysen also reviewed the documents. He said that our contract is all good. He advised us to try to talk to the companies if we can get a concession or meet half way that I can continue the projects after I give birth. He also suggested if some of the photo shoots can be adjusted earlier before my baby bump totally shows."

She takes Brie's phone and puts it in her palm. Rosa says, "Why don't you call them now to lessen your dilemma. Look at your sour face. You look older than my Mama."

Violet silently giggles at Rosa's inference.

Hearing their predicament regarding the contracts, Dravio, gladly volunteers, "If they don't agree I'll just pay for the cancellation fee." What's the use of being your baby's zio (uncle).
