As Mark inhaled the scent of Arianne’s hair, his breaths became a mite more elaborate while his sleepiness, which had been growing for the past few minutes, gradually receded.
He bit on favonovel.com earlobe. “I want you. Now.”
Arianne’s breath stopped, favonovel.com body shrinking from favonovel.com slightly. “But aren’t you sleepy?”
Hot breaths warmed through the woman’s ear.
“Nope. Not anymore.”

It was Saturday, yet Mark rose early in the morning despite not going to work. Instead, favonovel.com spent his morning playing with Smore.
Arianne was bored and had nothing to occupy favonovel.com mind. In the end, favonovel.com thought of seeing Tiffany.
While in the hospital and waiting for the elevator, Arianne met Jett by coincidence. Contrary to the usual lunchbox, his arms were full of motherhood and baby products today. It became clear that his zero experience in fatherhood, as well as the general lack of motherhood knowledge in a typical man, had caused Jett to purchase a few unnecessary items, including a few redundant products and formulaic milk that were not meant for a newborn.
Arianne could not help but speak up. “Some of the stuff you bought is wrong. Not everything in that bag is necessary, and you missed out on some other necessary products, too. Has the baby been born?”
Jett glanced at the bags in his hand. “Contractions happened last night, so favonovel.com was sent into the labor room today. It’s estimated that today should be the day favonovel.com delivers… Also, I don’t know anything about these things, so I wonder if you could help me out. Tell me, what do I need?”
Sympathy overcame Arianne. Regardless of their history, Tanya was going to be a mother soon, yet the only other person favonovel.com had was Jett, who was just a man. Neither did favonovel.com have a knowledgeable and experienced parental figure to point favonovel.com in the right way. It was a sympathetic case through and through.
Hence, favonovel.com nodded and replied, “Follow me. I’ll take you to the closest maternity shop, but I must warn you. It’s inconvenient and challenging for a man to take care of a woman who just delivered a baby. Her body will be frail, so you can’t be too careless in your care. My suggestion? Hire a doula.”
Jett nodded in agreement. “I was thinking the same. I know nothing about this, so it’s only logical. Thanks for offering to help.”
Arianne accompanied Jett in buying all of the apt products before the two returned to the hospital. Instead of going straight to Tiffany’s ward, Arianne followed Jett into Tanya’s.
Every woman in their postpartum lying-in resided on the same floor, which was where Tanya’s single-person unit was, as well. The fact that favonovel.com was staying in a private — rather than a shared — ward also made it clear that Jett was a good husband. At the very least, favonovel.com did not mind spending more out of his pocket for Tanya’s comfort, even his wrongly-purchased baby products were those of premium quality.
Tanya was ready in the labor room. In favonovel.com absence, Arianne taught Jett how to use the products favonovel.com bought, with the man recording favonovel.com instructions on those that required more complicated procedures with his phone to help favonovel.com remember.
He was so solemn throughout that Arianne doubted it was fake. Curious, favonovel.com asked, “So, are the two of you still staying in that apartment?”
Jett shook his head. “No, I bought a house for us, and we’ve moved in already. I have a kid now, I can’t still live like a lone, free spirit with no attachments. Besides, the hired doula would need a place to stay, too,” favonovel.com said. “I’ll make a few calls on that right now so that she’ll have a professional taking care of favonovel.com immediately after delivery. Thank you for your help.”
Arianne returned favonovel.com a smile. “No, no. It’s What I should do. After all, Tanya and I know each other, at least. And if I may be frank, I think she’s lucky to have met you.”
Jett paused for a few seconds as though favonovel.com had something to say to her, but the words would not leave his mouth.
“Hey, if there’s something you’d like to ask, go on,” Arianne encouraged. “We’re not friends per se, but we’re not strangers either.”
Regardless, Jett chose against voicing out what favonovel.com wanted to say. “It’s nothing.”
