Husband With Benefits

"This is Rosie." Isabella said, as she showed the picture to Olivia and Nora.

Nora guffawed at the man in the picture and then looked at Isabella, " This is Rosie? Did his parents hate him to give him such a name?"

Olivia nodded along, totally dumbfounded by the new revelation. "Nah. His name is Drake Rosette. He once pulled off a heroic move, saving Seb from a persistent stalker by pretending to be his girlfriend over the phone. Apparently, his impersonation of a seductive woman’s voice was so convincing that even Seb was taken aback. Word has it, Mr. Rosette’s feminine voice could melt the hardest of hearts. Hence, Seb christened him ’Rosie.’ "

Nora and Olivia laughed hard as they imagined the tough looking man in the picture talking like a woman while Isabella shook her head," Oh please. Laugh all you want. But Rosie is like a secret weapon. Rosie’s talents go beyond just saving Seb from awkward situations. When Rosie speaks, even the toughest guys start talking."

Nora and Olivia laughed even harder at the thougt of poor Drake Rosette trying to get the clients to talk by pretending to be Rosie.

Finally, Isabella shook her head," Okay, lets not get side tracked. You said you have an ultrasound next week. We’ll have our esteemed Rosie clear Seb’s schedule without telling him and then you can begin the Operation Get the Man."

"Operation Get the Man?"

"Uh huh.. Operation: Get the man. The first stage in this is to get him all alone and helpless. Then...."

Finally, as Olivia bade Nora and Isabella goodbye, her bad mood had been uplifted as she thought of the future ahead. Maybe, things that she had thought of as impossible in her future might be possible... With a sigh, she patted her stomach and promised," Your father and mother will be totally together when you come into this world little one. Give mama some courage." Though her baby was still too small to be felt, Olivia felt as if he did respond and curled up happily, rejuvenated with hope for the future.
