Everyone was quiet when they walked inside and saw a sleepy Leanna who was playing with her baby's soft cheek. Lucas was still watching through his screen with an envious expression. He wished he had been around for such a big day in their group of friends.

"You look tired, why don't you rest first?" Rachel said to Leanna and pointedly looked at Ethan. Ethan, was still wearing sterile clothes so it was more appropriate for him to handle the baby. Ethan awkwardly but carefully took the sleeping baby from Leanna and placed him on the small bed next to that was right next to hers.

"You can look at him, I'm going to sleep first, I'm exhausted," Leanna said as she yawned and closed her eyes. She had been running on sheer willpower, so when she closed her eyes, she immediately fell deep into sleep.

They finally surrounded the baby to look at him and the girls were screaming internally as they looked at him. Jen who was still holding her phone with her earphones on could hear Lucas's reaction on seeing the baby.

Jen felt a sense of yearning on seeing the child and she started looking forward to them having one after they get married.

The baby opened his eyes and they saw the amber colour and they all looked at Ethan in unison. They could already tell that he was going to look like his father in the future.

They did not stay in the room for too long before they all dispersed. They didn't go back to their homes but went to the estate instead. Since they had planned to spend the weekend there then they would. And now they could celebrate the birth of the new baby even though the people involved were not around.

They were going to continue the next day since they spent the majority of their night at the hospital and they were all tired.

Jen took a bottle from the bar in their wing and went with it to the bedroom. She went to take a quick shower before she climbed into bed and called Lucas. Lucas picked up the phone as he too lay down in bed.

"Hey," Jen said as she looked at the sleepy Lucas and couldn't help the smile that appeared on her face.

"You look tired," Jen said as she looked at his eyes that were half shut.

"Mmh, I have deadlines coming up," Lucas said, his voice sounding thick with sleep. It was so sexy Jen wanted him to talk some more.

"You can sleep in tomorrow right? Since it's the weekend," Jen asked and Lucas chuckled in response. Jen only bit her lower lip in response. Why did he end up looking so sexy all of a sudden. Lucas raised an eyebrow when he saw the look on her face. He had seen this expression on her many times before and he knew what it meant.

"Do you want to come over sooner?" Lucas asked her with a devilish smile and Jen's cheeks flushed. His voice was so suggestive that she couldn't help but blush in response.

"I want to, but I have exams in two days," Jen answered with a sigh and Lucas looked disappointed in response. He was tempted to pop in for a couple of hours but he did not have the luxury to do so. Martin was going to nag him to death and kill whatever mood he would have been able to build up with Jen.

"I can't wait for you to get here," Lucas said and unconsciously stroked her face through the screen. Jen nodded in agreement. She also couldn't wait to be done with her exams and start her holidays with Lucas.

Jen looked at the handsome man on the screen and missed him even more than she has before. The two of them talked until Jen? became drowsy and fell asleep while listening to Lucas's voice. Lucas looked at her sleeping face for a while before ending the call. He put his phone on charge before getting into the comforters and falling asleep.

Jen slept like a baby that night, completely forgetting about her plan to drink herself to sleep. When she woke up the next day, she just returned the bottle to the bar before joining everyone else for breakfast. No one was in the mood for cooking so the aunt that normally came to clean the house at an ungodly hour in the morning brought a bunch of chefs with her to serve food for the rest of the day.

After the previous night's events everything mellowed out that day and no one really drank until they came back from visiting Leanna and her son at the hospital later that day. Jen thought everyone would go wild afterwards but that did not happen, and instead, after hanging out for a couple of hours that night, everyone just went back to their rooms and after chatting with Lucas before bed, she too went ahead and fell asleep.

The following morning, Jen was not planning staying over and left to go back home after breakfast. She wanted to do some last minute revision before her exams the next day. Lucas on the other hand was working from home and also working on his assignment and the couple did their own thing on video call. They would sometimes talk to each other or just accompany each other as they did their own thing. Just like this, a peaceful Sunday passed and Jen started her exams the following day.

For the rest of that week, Jen visited Leanna after completing her exams before going home to study for her next paper. It was a bit tiring, but since it was something that was going to last five days for her, she did not have to suffer for too long.

Jen kept up with this routine for the entire week and started making more arrangements after she was done with her exams. She went to visit her mom for around a week before she made her way to Country M. She was anticipating seeing Lucas even when she was having quality time with her mother.

So it was no surprise when she jumped him once she saw him at the airport.
