When Keiko next met Charles, naturally the disastrous wedding would come up. “I feel so bad for the poor boy,” Charles shook his head. “Yes,” Keiko nodded absent-mindedly, “Well, at least he got out quickly and gets a second chances before he is too old to mould into a new life.” “You’re not old, Keiko,”...

“What were you thinking Mal?” Liv confronted her friend as soon as she sat down at his place. “I wasn’t… honestly, I didn’t know where she was going with it. I just told the bride she looked nice on her wedding day, surely everyone does that,” Malakai sighed. “I didn’t realise she meant anything more... Continue Reading →

Newton’s love life improved significantly in my absence. Perhaps his bad luck had finally lifted, as he was able to take his relationship with Mara to the next level. Sure, he may have developed a nasty rash right after they woohooed for the first time, but surely that was unrelated; he wouldn’t have caught it... Continue Reading →

“Daddy!” Monty leapt into Malakai’s arms. “Good to see you, little one,” Malakai smiled. “Thanks for taking him for the weekend,” Liv said gratefully. “It’s going to be a crazy one.” “That’s what the wild life of a mixologist gets you,” Malakai laughed.

“Aunt Yenn, aunt Yenn, aunt Yenn! I need your help,” Monty dashed into the kitchen as Yenn was finishing off breakfast. “What is it, Monty?” “The neighbours have a snow creature, but I’m not sure if it’s a snow monster or a snow person,” Monty explained. “I suppose we better go have a look,” Yenn...

The days of Monty’s infancy went by in a blur for Liv. A lot of feeding, cuddling, changing poopy diapers; and on top of that, covering as many shifts at work as possible. Sleep had become a rare commodity. But it was all worth it. She’d never forget the day Monty twirled into childhood. As... Continue Reading →

~ Liv's POV ~ Aunt Yenn and Ethan have been really good to me. They’ve been really supportive, and I feel a lot calmer about the baby coming thanks to them. Some days I really look forward to it, think about baby names, and wonder if he or she will look more like me or like... Continue Reading →

“I’d say the party was a success,” Yenn grinned over breakfast the next day. “What do you think, Liv?” “I… I’ve got to tell you something,” Oliva said nervously. “I kind of… had woohoo for the first time yesterday.” Oh boy, Yenn thought.
