Not long after the truck leaves my car in the parking lot, I am waiting on the curb. Zoe got out of the taxi first as it stopped beside me. Zoe pays for the cab, and I help her grab her stuff from the trunk.

“I never knew this place was here,“ She says, looking up at the vast hotel, “kinda creepy, it looks haunted, “ She adds, and I chuckle.

“Anyway, I am so glad to see you again. I have been so excited I barely slept a wink last night,“ Zoe tells me, giving me a hug.

“So, is this everything?“ I ask her looking down at the pram and duffle bag.

“Yep, that’s everything, our life in a bag. Pathetic, isn’t it?“

“No, see that piece of scrap metal,“ I tell her, pointing at my busted wagon. She nods her head.

“That was home sweet home, “ I tell her, and she laughs.

“Seriously, as for baby stuff, don’t even worry about it. Valarie went on a shopping spree. The room is packed with everything, baby. So much so we may have to sleep outside to fit it all in the room,“ I tell her.

“What, really? How long have you known Valarie? “

She asks.

“Met her yesterday. She is lovely. I have never met anyone like her before, “ I tell Zoe, and she smiles just as a green Daihatsu charade pulls up next to us, honking its horn a few times.

“Thanks, bro, “ Macey says, punching her brother in the shoulder and climbing out before tapping the roof.

“Hi, girls, “ Her brother calls out, and we both wave to the stranger.

“Bugger off, Blake, stop hitting on my friends. They aren’t interested, “ Macey scolds her brother as he waves to us. Macey flips him off, and he laughs, driving off down the road.

“Sorry about him. He is a sleaze, so try to stay away from him unless you want another baby,“ Macey chuckles, shaking her head.

I tell her, and she quickly hugs us. She had on short shorts and a cut-off shirt showing her belly button, her hair pulled in a bun, and a pair of boots that she said she borrowed from
