Sydney knew her sister well and she often times used that for her own motives, however she really has not been able to gauge what her sister would think of this, or how she would react to the news. As soon as she told her though she could see the wheels turning in her head, she was putting all the pieces together and then beginning to wonder how she couldn’t have figured it out herself, sooner. The thing about it was though, if Sydney tried hard enough she could conceal any secret. Her complicated upbringing is one of those things, so if you don’t know something about her, she made sure it stayed that way until she decided otherwise. 

Kaleb’s eyes were on Sydney’s and she quickly glanced at him while her sister was deep in thought. Her next remark caught her a bit by surprise. She couldn’t tell if she was genuinely asking, or if she was being pissy? With as pregnant as she was Sydney couldn’t blame her. She sighed heavily, her hands resting in her lap. Without pause, she took Kaleb’s hand in hers and grinned. “We are..” She said, the couple sharing a heartfelt glance. She had always been careful and mindful not to rub things in and make her sister jealous but this was just a moment she had to have with the father of their future daughter. 

Kaleb shrugged a bit afterwards, “For the record, I wanted to tell you the week after we found out, but [i]someone [/i]would not let me.” He defended, half joking. “Hey!” Sydney playfully hit her boyfriend. “Thanks for the backup, Babe...” 

Sydney felt so much lighter and free. She looked at her sister again, “Flo, I’m sorry we didn’t tell you sooner. I just didn’t know how, you’ve been through a lot the last few years and I just thought this might be a slap in the face. In the interest of total honesty, I actually didn’t want to tell you until after the baby was here, because I didn’t want to send you into early labor, but then today we saw her again, and found out she was a girl, and agreed on her name and I just couldn’t not run home and tell you everything.” She confessed. “Her name is going to be Emire Jade, After Our Grandma and Her soon to be Grandma.” She beamed with pride, looking at Kaleb once again. What a day.
