yayyy update! i know its taken a little bit, but i hope you enjoy it just the same.
Weeks and months passed. Everything was good, great in fact. Abby and Luka were more in love with each other than ever before, finally cherishing their relationship and just enjoying being together. Raising their son was no easy task, but both of them had a kind of renewed enthusiasm to compromise, work things out. Some people seemed to be waiting for the crash and burn of the two people who were getting along almost too well; but they were determined. Given more than enough chances, they both wanted things to work out between them.
A few months later, on a cold February night, Abby awoke to the cries of her son. He glanced over at her husband, wondering if he might not get the fussy baby and she could go back to sleep. No such luck. He always slept like a rock, she thought to herself as she threw back the cover and shivered as her feet touched the icy floor.
She quickly tiptoed into the nursery. Scooping up Joe, she began to sing to him quietly as she rocked him, hoping that he might go back to sleep. She admired her son, thinking about how amazing it was that he was already over a year old. The time had simply flown by and she found herself reminiscing about when he had just been born. How much she missed being the mother of an infant. So tiny and needing her protection. What she wouldn’t give to be able to have another child. Involuntarily her hand wandered to her stomach. There she felt the constant reminder that never again would she be able to bear a child. Gone were the joys, and pains, of pregnancy. Never again would she feel her child kick or turn. Never again would she have to deal with the crazy hormones and ridiculous food cravings. She couldn’t help but let a tear escape her eye and roll silently down her cheek.
Pulling herself from her thoughts of self-pity, she saw that her son had finally drifted back to sleep. She gently laid him in his crib and sleepily walked back into her bedroom. As she crawled underneath the covers, she snuggled against Luka and he instinctively wrapped his arm around her. Even in the comfort of his embrace, Abby had trouble falling back asleep. She had so many things on her mind, what with Joe, Luka, and the fact that she would never again be able to hold her infant child. A new idea came into her mind, and all she could do was smile. Maybe, just maybe, there was a way.
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
The next morning as Abby and Luka were rushing around getting ready for work, she could barely contain herself. Yet she knew that she had to ask him at the right time. And she wasn’t sure how he was going to react. After all, biological children were the most important thing to him, she knew that.
Soon enough they were all in the car, Abby, Luka and Joe, and on their way to County. The radio was on, but the music wasn’t registering in her mind. How should she start? She couldn’t just blurt it out, right?
“Luka, I was wondering if we could talk about something..?”
“Sure..” He looked at her hesitatingly. What was this about? They hadn’t fought in a while… he couldn't remember anything that he had done...
“Well, see I was wondering… if maybe… consider…” she couldn’t bring herself to ask him. Why was she so scared? He reached over and took his hand in hers.
“What is it?” he asked with a hint of concern in his voice.
“Umm, well I was wondering… what do you think about adopting?”
