Chapter 153: Madison

With writing my next story and two trips to Arizona to visit Hamilton, spring training passes quickly. Each evening, we video call. We share events from our days and plans for the next. We read pages from our book, and occasionally, Hamilton asks me to place the phone on my belly. He read about the baby’s ability to hear sounds from outside the womb, and now he talks to our little one.

With spring training over, I’m excited for the new season. I prop myself up on three pillows at the headboard of my double bed. Watching Delta unpack, placing her items all over the hotel room, is both entertaining and exhausting. I decide to take this moment to check in at home.

Me: we’re in St. Louis. what’s up

Fallon: at tumbling. she says it’s a PJ party tonight. She’s sad my PJ’s are sweatpants

Me: you should borrow mine. drawer 3 in tall dresser

Fallon: might take you up on that

Me: have fun. We’re sightseeing
