THE SMALL VILLAGE closest to the manor was gorgeous. I instantly fell in love with the old stone buildings, along with the sleepy and slow pace. Anne lived in the town and showed me around, she practically knew everyone and at every place, we went to, she raved on and on about my art.

There was a small boutique that sold baby items. Anne sent me alone as she waited for her order at the butcher shop. I loved that this town was so traditional and storybook-like. There were no major retailers or chains, just shops owned by families, making their living off the land and old traditions.

Stepping into the boutique, I immediately wanted to look at everything. Everything was so small and perfect for tiny humans. I’d never thought about having children, it wasn’t something that was major to me. I was always about my art and where that was going to take me. The moment I stepped into the shop, a feeling washed over me, more of a desire. It was the desire to bring a life into the world.

I walked toward a rack of small pajamas. I ran my fingers along the fleece fabric and smiled to myself. What would it even be like to have a small version of myself? A little person that depended on me for absolutely everything. The thoughts were scary, but I welcomed them to me.

First, I’d have to find someone to marry ... Nate. I took a deep breath, I was getting ahead of myself, I didn’t even know what Nate and I were. We couldn’t be dating, could we? Maybe, we were just going to be fuck buddies, a body to have close when needed. The uncertainty of it all struck me. I’d dove into the deep end, and I didn’t know how to swim.

“May I help you?” asked a kind female voice, snapping me out of my thoughts. I turned to see a woman, she looked vaguely familiar, but I couldn’t place it. Her dark brown hair was pulled into a sloppy bun, and she had a kind smile.

“Yeah, I’m buying a gift for a family that is having a baby today,” I told her as I approached the small wooden counter she stood behind.

“Boy or girl?” she asked. I was then struck by the fact that I didn’t know what they were having, I just knew there was a baby coming. It would be great information to have when going out to buy a gift.

“I actually don’t know,” I answered timidly, slipping my hands behind my back nervously. I was ashamed that I had no clue.

“No bother, we have plenty of gender neutral ideas and a teddy bear never hurts,” the woman said, smiling. “I hope you don’t mind me asking, are you American?”

I let out a chuckle. I never thought I’d have that question asked of me before. Sometimes I forgot I was in a foreign land, and I was the odd one out.

“Yes, I am. I am doing some artwork for Lord Branagan,” I said proudly.
