I’d like to remind you that I do excellent French braids too. However, Lucy’s milkmaid braid = the best, say hi to her for me (and to Marcus), she’s like the cutest thing ever.

Hi honey, I just wanted to check in and make sure you’re okay. I know Christmas was tough and I know Mum is still being insufferable but what can I/we do??? I saw you still have interested in men on here… are you struggling hun Are you in denial How can I help?!?

So I’m on a major baking kick right now (I blame little Patel) so I’ve Owl-ed over some macarons and madeleines to your place. Can you do me a favour and ask Marcus and Lucy if they’re allergic to anything, I was gonna make you lot a coffee and walnut cake but I’m not sure if they’re allergic?

Lots of love,
-Jen x

It's because she's so tiny! This is like, the closest I've ever come to sympathising with child labour. I briefly considered paying her in ice cream to fix the stitching on my handbag...

Lacey Holloway sent you a message:
Oh my God, I'm like the last person you need to worry about right now. Basically nothing's changed in my life. And like, I'm not the one with a living thing growing in me.

Lol J, be more perfect. Marcus is allergic to good boyfriends, but I'm pretty sure that's it...

Jenny Holloway commented on your status:
I’m sure it is! Remember, she’s going to grow up and bigger so… best take advantage whilst you can. And NO, that is not me advocating child labour, I would NEVER do that.

Jenny Holloway sent you a message:
Yes but honey, I DO worry. I’m your big sister, I’m allowed to worry about you, it’s in my job description in fact! :P Have you talked to Mum or Dad at all since Christmas?

Anyways... just, if you ever need anything at all (and I mean anything) please just tell me that you know you can come to me, right? I know you don’t have a growing thing in you but, look, the fact I do freaks me out massively so mainly I’m trying not to think about it so let me just focus on you for like a minute to distract me, okay?

Thankfully I wasn’t planning on including boyfriend in my recipes. But gosh, is it really that bad with him? Poor boy sure knows how to pick them.

This just in, Jenny Holloway totally loves sweatshops. Pass it on.

I talked to Dad on the phone. We didn't really have anything to say to each other, so he just ended up relaying the entire plot of the last Walking Dead. So like, business as usual there.

I'm fine, seriously. I get it, child birth is like a total sci-fi nightmare Does it help to skip over the pregnancy bit and think about, I don't know, colours for the nursery or cute baby outfits or whatever? Have you thought about names? I just read that Kimye have allegedly considered 'North West' and 'Khrist West' so you might need to step it up...

I know I have a tendency to get judge-y but like, Liam was just a mess.

Don’t make those kind of accusations, Lace, even jokingly! Come on, I work with children, they’ll kick me out! :(

Jenny Holloway sent you a message:
I’ve spoken to Dad regularly since Christmas but Mum has (as of yesterday) managed to worm her way back into the communication too. I’m still super mad at her but I guess Dad didn’t really do or say anything overtly offensive… he just didn’t exactly spring to anyone’s defence either. Oh, he’s still on The Walking Dead with you? In our convos he’s moved on to Breaking Bad. Hey, do you ever think Dad watches so much television so he doesn’t have to continue conversations with Mum?

Are you sure, honey, or are you doing that thing where you say you’re fine because there’s a whole heap of cyberspace between us right now?

I have had to focus on baby outfits, decorating (tho… I’m not sure where we’re going to live, I haven’t talked to Ben about it yet) etc. otherwise I will literally have a panic attack in the middle of the kitchen. We’ve brainstormed a few names for each gender but no winners yet… care to throw any in for consideration? (Do not make wolf jokes.)

Oh dear. :/ Honey, I’m sure you’re not being judge-y and he was really as bad as you say he was. I hope it’s not too bad living with Marcus when he’s going through rough patches with guys, break-ups can be hard on anyone surrounding who they’re happening to.

Or they'll discover a fun new way to earn money for the school...

Lacey Holloway commented on your status:
Probably. God forbid he do anything after work but grab a beer, glue himself to his favourite chair and tune out everyone else. I stop paying attention after awhile; he may have switched from zombies to meth dealers at some point. I don't know. Sometimes when we talk we quote The Simpsons at each other, so that's fun I guess.

I always have my shit to deal with, but no one's going to be able to fix it so like, don't worry about it.

Ken Patel? Sven Patel?

Hey, no judgement, I think it's kind of cute that he's become so obsessed with so much AMC programming. Next up is probably going to be Mad Men, right? Plus, despite me being an utter wuss with anything remotely scary, I think I'd take zombie thrillers over Mum's ranting any day. That sounded so mean, didn't it? :/

I do worry though, hun, I'm sorry but I just do. Like I said, I call sisterly privilege on that right to worry. Just... know I'm here if you ever want to talk it out, that's all I ask. Well... that and for you to help me pick out baby clothes and nursery colours when I finally find out whether little Baby Patel is going to be a boy or a girl. ;)

I'm sorry, do you want this child to be bullied?? It's bad enough that we're 'Ben and Jenny'!

Yeah, I know. I talked to the shrink and went back on my anxiety meds this week so... there's that. Do you want to set a date to go shopping? I've been reading decorating magazines when work is slow. Apparently pink and blue are out, pale yellow and seafoam green are in.

Lacey Knickers. Racy Lacey. My nicknames were both annoying and entirely inappropriate for my sexless teenage existence. :p Anyway, 'no wolf jokes' really limited my comedy options...

[Jenny Holloway]

Jenny Holloway sent you a message:
Yes please!! How’s your schedule looking this week? :) I had no idea pink and blue were out… clearly I need your decorating trend expertise! I suppose I need to talk to Ben first about uh… where we’re actually going to live first, don’t I? My place would be alright I guess but I feel really bad for making him leave behind his house and friends and force him to be grown-up and boring. :/

Blame Mum and Dad then? ;) Fine, you can make wolf jokes with me, just not with Ben please, I’m not sure if he’s entirely comfortable about it… though he did go and register finally so… he’s at least more accepting and trusting about others knowing now.

Thursday after work?

Do you really want your kid around all those guys, though? I went to school with Walsh and I wouldn't trust him to handle a sack of flour, tbh.

Ha, tell Ben I know the feeling. That sounds promising, though? The Werewolf Support Services guy is like a total div but it seems like they try their best to help.

It’s a date! :)))

Idk honey, I mean they have such a great… dynamic in that household and they’ve calmed down (a bit) in recent months. I do feel kind of like their Mum though, especially after a big blow out party. I mean it’s not like I’d ask them to babysit ever and I can’t imagine a world where Kevin would ever think that was something he wanted to do. But a more stable environment would be appreciated. I just don’t want to tear Ben away from his friends because that’s not who we are as people, we’ve always had our own lives and things separate from each other too, and while I know a baby is obviously going to alter that… I guess I don’t want him ever to, even for a secret split second, resent me or our child because it means he has to move on and grow up and not do fun things anymore. :/ Am I being crazy???

I’m sure he’ll appreciate that lol. It is promising, it means he trusts the Ministry again which is a huuuuge step and it’s getting better I think. I still feel really terrible for blurting it out over Christmas dinner in front of everyone; I don’t think I’ll ever get over Mum’s face of utter horror. She hasn’t mentioned it since; I think she’s too scared to!
