Ambros left Grozny three days ago. It’s a little hard for me to believe he came to the city I’m living in just to see me. That’s the sort of thing guys do in romance movies when they really, really like you. I’ve never had a man make any sort of move like that in the past for me, and in a way, it proves to me that there are really amazing guys out there. I’m lucky enough to experience this first hand.

Over the past few days, I’ve been helping Mona get everything ready for Ira’s third birthday. Her party is in a couple of hours, and I’ve already helped her a lot. The massive living room in the townhouse is decorated perfectly. Pink, purple, and turquoise balloons transform the space into a child’s wonderland. Ira asked for it to be donut-themed, so Mona and I did some research into these donut towers we saw online. We managed to put them together ourselves and not hire an outside company to do it, which is pretty cool.

Mona wanted to add a little bit more than just the donut theme, so she has unicorn-themed things around the space, too. Along the back wall, there’s a sign that says, ‘Yippee, I’m Three!’ and next to it is a giant unicorn balloon. The same pinks, purples, and turquoise colors around the living area are in all the unicorn items as well. There’s even a snack bar that has food dyed to match the colors of the party. It’s come together so nicely, and I can’t wait for Ira to see it later.

She’s out with her sister and Emily, who’s been working to distract the girls all day. Emily took her oldest daughter Sierra, who’s eleven and I’m sure is being a great help wrangling the toddlers as they’re off doing something I know is likely magical.

“Bloody hell, I have so much to do still.” Mona’s running around the house like Emily and the girls will walk through the door in mere minutes.

“What can I do to help?” I ask, only wanting to help her.

“Are you kidding me? Absolutely nothing. You’ve done enough. More than enough, actually.” I know the family has the resources to do what Mona wants. She could have hired a company to come in and decorate the house, turning it into what Ira wished for, but Mona really wanted to do it all herself. She’s even cooked and baked so many different things. She even made all the donuts over the course of the last twelve hours while I helped her decorate them. In all honesty, I had a lot of fun doing that.

“Mona, I’m serious. If you need more help, then let me know.”

She shakes her head over and over again. “No. I’m not taking another moment of your time. Go out and do something fun. You’re free to do so now that Ruslan handled that situation, so go take a walk. Grab a coffee. Do something fun.” Mona widens her eyes, another tell-tale sign that she wants me to get out of the house and enjoy myself.
