Chickpea,

Don’t worry, mommy never took what you said to the heart. I knew it was the anger talking and you were so young back then… Not that for mommy you are ever going to grow: you’ll always be my tiny chickpea and I’ll always love you no matter what. So let’s just drop this subject, ok?

I’m so glad you’re coming home. I miss you so much! But before you land I must update you about a few changes in our house. I didn’t tell you until now because I didn’t want you to worry or loose the focus on your final exams.

Chapter 42: At least you’ve got good news…

Hello again, dear sister.

First I must say I couldn’t be more surprised – or pleased – with your latest news! Oh, living in a house designed by a renowned architect… this is not only a dream of mine, but a dream of our beloved mother. She will be so happy when she sees we have the most beautiful house on Summer Hill! And before you say anything: I’m not loosing it. I admit I am a bit stressed, but that’s all. Our parents REALLY are visiting the house. I see them all the time! How can I not refer to them in the present tense if they’re once again among us? The night before I left to Al Simhara, for example, I was watching the news on TV and daddy was right behind me. I swear!

Chapter 35: Such a tiny chickpea

REGISTRY: Paon – 2nd Generation
ENTRY NUMBER: 003
REPORTER: Antonia Paon
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————

SUMMARY: I, Antonia Paon, give birth to Cicero, my child with Ramon Watt. Life goes on at Summer Hill 15 with Renzo Paon publising two more books, Clara Paon being promoted to Trauma surgeon and Wilson Keaton being promoted to Overseer of the dead. —————————————————————————————————————————————————————

NARRATIVE: At 4:07pm on October 23, 2013 Cicero was born. He was the result of a brief affair between Ramon Watt, a Sunset Valley’s repairman and myself, grunt Antonia Paon. The pregnancy wasn’t easy and I presented anxiety and mild depression symptoms besides constant back pain. In an attempt to promote my relaxation and diminish the risks of a preterm birth, my physician, Commander DeForest, prescribed me a vitamin supplement and moderate consumption of lemon balm tea (Evidence A: Commander DeForest’s prescription). He also asked me to practice yoga for as far as I could into my gestation period.

Despite my pregnancy not going as smooth as any mother’s dream, I had quite an easy and quick labour. As planned I gave birth at home with Commander DeForest and Clara Paon’s assistance just after completing 38 weeks. After roughly 1,5 hour I was holding Cicero, my tiny chick pea born weighing 3 kilograms and measuring 48 centimeters.
