《My Best Friend's Baby》Chapter:12

"You had her?!" Alice asks in a shocked tone.
"Yeah. I would've called but I have been so busy with everything that I didn't think about it." I say. I feel awful for upsetting everyone.
"C-can we come visit and meet the baby?" Abbi asks.
"Well of course,she's your granddaughter. I wouldn't keep her from you just because of what Josh did." I say. "I'll text you my mom's address when I get off of the phone. Y'all could even stay a couple days here if y'all want."
"Okay we'll be over there as soon as we can." she says.
"Okay. I have to go, Olivia's getting fussy. I'll see you when y'all get here."
Abbi says bye before hanging up the phone, as soon as the call ends Olivia starts crying, mom hands her to me so that I can feed her.
"Josh's parents and sister are coming to visit and see Olivia." I tell my mom. "I hope it's okay that I told them they could."
"Of course it's fine sweetie,there's plenty of room at the house for everyone to stay."
"Thanks mom."
My mom leaves a while later she goes home to get everything ready for when Josh's parents get here.
Becky and Aaron are working on putting the nursery together for me, i'm so grateful that I have so many people around that are willing to help me with that kind of stuff.
I take Olivia and put her into her crib and then I lay down and fall asleep.
*****
We're on our way home, i'm so glad to get to go home. To be honest the hospital bed wasn't to comfortable, i'll be glad to sleep in my own bed again.
I can't wait for Alice to meet Olivia, she is going to love her so much.

Josh's parents and Alice got here last night. They didn't come see me in the hospital cause they knew I would be coming home today so they said they would just wait til I got home.
The closer we get to home the more excited I get.
When we get home I have a huge smile on my face, I unstrap Olivia's car seat and get her out of the car then we walk inside,everyone is in the living room watching t.v. when they hear me come in they all turn around with smiles on their faces. I sit Olivia's
Car seat on an armchair and take her out, I walk over to where Abbi and James are sitting and hand her to Abbi. She looks down at her and smiles even bigger than she already was.
"Claire, she's beautiful." James says.
"Thank you." I say.
They all pass Olivia around taking turns holding her. Everyone loves her.
I think Alice loves her more than anyone.
After a while of passing Olivia around she gets fussy so I take her upstairs to the nursery to change her diaper.
The nursery is all put together and I love it so much. Everything's perfect.
Becky and Aaron left earlier today they came to the hospital to tell me bye, they had to go do more stuff for college since it start next week.
I change Olivia and go back down stairs to fix her a bottle. I go back into the living room with everyone, I move the car seat out of the arm chair and take a seat.
We all sit around and talk for a while, my mom and Abbi go start dinner leaving me,James and Alice.
"I'm proud of you Claire, and i'm sorry for all this crap Josh has put you through." James says.

"Thank you, it's okay. I'm getting over everything, I have to be strong for Olivia." I say.
He gives me a small smile. Olivia falls asleep so I take her and lay her back down in her car seat so that she can be more comfortable.
Mom comes and tells us that dinner is ready so we all get up and go have dinner. After I eat I go upstairs and place Olivia in her crib before I have a quick shower, after I shower I lay down in bed and watch a little t.v. until I fall asleep.
*****
It's been a couple days since we came home home from the hospital, it's been wonderful having Josh's family here but unfortunately they have to leave today.
Mom has to work today so after they leave i'm going to be home with Olivia by ourselves for the first time, I won't lie i'm rather nervous about it but I know we'll be fine.
I have a quickly check on Olivia,She's asleep so I decide to take a shower right fast. I grab a towel and wash rag from the linen closet before heading to the bathroom. When I get out of the shower I wrap myself in a towel and go to my room to change. I put on some comfy clothes since it's just gonna be me and Olivia here today.
I hear Olivia start crying just as I finish getting dressed so I go into her room,I pick her up and go downstairs.
I make her a bottle and give it to her once she's done eating I burp her then I take her to the living room and put her in her swing. I decide to make myself breakfast,I make myself some toast and eggs while periodically checking on Olivia. When I finish making my breakfast I go to the living room so I can watch Liv while I eat, I decided to call her Liv for short.
I decide to call Nikki and see how she's doing, I haven't talked to her in a while.
She picks up after a few rings.
"Hello?"
"Hey Nikki. How's everything going?"
"Everything's going good. How's everything with you? I heard about what Josh did."
"We're fine. I had Olivia almost a week ago."
"Oh Claire that's wonderful!" Nikki says, and I can hear the smile in her voice. "I wish I could meet her. What's she like?"
"She's perfect. I'll send you a picture later. She has dark hair and green eyes like Josh,my mom says she has some of my facial features like my nose." I say with a small laugh.
"Aww she sounds adorable. I can't wait til I get to meet her." she says.
"Claire, which name do you like better Mason or Michael?"
"Umm.. I like Mason better. Why?"
"Those are the 2 names we're deciding between for our baby. I just wanted your opinion."
"Oh okay." I say with a laugh.
I hear Liv start fussing so I get off the phone and go change her diaper, as soon as I finish changing her I hear the doorbell ring.

Path of Righteousness
What do you desire? What are you afraid of? You run away from one, pursuing the other. Is that all you are? Conquer your fears. Dig to the bottom and confirm, what you really want... ...For you cannot escape suffering and death. You only have a little time. Use it wisely. Uru, a young boy with no talent for magic or fighting, sets out on a quest to become an avatar of order, the physical embodiment of righteousness, in a distant future, where control of origin energy allows people to defy physics and manipulate causality. Mocked by fate and broken by impossible dreams, all that's left is to stand in defiance to cruel existence. Because there is a Truth out there, somewhere. Singular, transcendent, eternal. What would you sacrifice for it? *** This is a fantastic sci-fi epic. It's going to blend both western and eastern traditional fantasy tropes – like might & magic and cultivation – with rational sci-fi grounded fully in reality, to produce a purely fictional fairy tale. I'd like to deliver something light-hearted and yet wholly serious. An uplifting adventure exploring the unfathomable reaches of humanity, free of indecency, with a healthy dose of humorous banter, legendary beings, and most importantly – lots of exciting, firework-filled mayhem! I've tried reading many web novels, but there's a fundamental problem with them – the eastern ones are annoyingly repetitive, superficial and morally destitute, while western ones are often dark, convoluted and profane. There's only so much one can do to filter out the bad and try to fill in the gaps with their own imagination. It's one thing to eat tasty fast food, but if it's moldy and filled with toxins, then it's not only poisonous, but also disgusting. The appreciation of beauty and higher values is disappearing at an alarming rate. Although there are throngs of talented people out there, none of them are creating what I want to witness – an inspiring battle against impossible odds, ending in absolute victory. A triumph of the spirit so overwhelming, it crushes the spectator into his seat and takes his breath away. I'm looking for a real paragon, so now I'd like to try conceiving one. *** The MC's name comes from Tolkien's Elven dictionary in Silmarillion, 'Uru' meaning 'Fire', and 'Dagnir an Uruloki' meaning 'Slayer of Dragons'. *** Note: I'm neither a native speaker, nor an aficionado of literature – I've never written anything before, and despite proficient English my literary prowess is abysmal. It therefore takes me a painful amount of effort to polish the chapters and bring them up to par. Last year I wrote and posted some on FictionPress, but I stopped since it wasn't going anywhere. The appalling amount of filth and mediocrity being peddled in all the media nowadays – a result of no conspiracy to manipulate the masses, but plain supply and demand – is no longer just the triumph of form over substance, but most worryingly corruption of the latter. Who wants to read about ideals anymore? And yet, masses flock together to gobble up perversion and depravity. That being said, I can't rule out pitiful exposure as the culprit to my failure, so I am now once again trying to increase it here, possibly for the last time. If there are still human beings present, hungry or in need of a detox after eating too much garbage, make yourselves heard, so I can see a reason to continue the story. Otherwise it's pointless – I'm not going to make fodder for the masses, and I'm most certainly not going to throw pearls before swine. I'll simply stop writing altogether.
