  "Why? He'll be so happy," Andrea argued.

  "I wanted it to be a surprise, 'cause he's been busy with some projects at the office these days. Not to talk of the recent happenings of late."

  "Yeah, it's true, but you should try telling him; he'll be ecstatic."

  "Yes, I plan to tell him soon, perhaps after Allegra is discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow. You know, make it a double celebration."

  "Yes, now we should focus more on baby names, baby shower, gender reveal party if you're interested, and clothes and baby stuff in general, the christening and all that..."

  "Hey, slow down, Andrea. I haven't even told Giovanni yet, and you're already talking about the christening."

  "I'm as surprised as you are."

  "I'm just excited, and it's always good to plan ahead. I don't want to keep dwelling on Natalia; it's way too depressing," she confessed.

  "Yeah, I understand; it's affecting me too, tremendously even."
