“Nope. If you aren’t a taco, I am not interested.”

Arcady gave her a side hug with both arms and giggled. “This works.”

Cadence checked her bank balance and smiled. “I guess I can get dinner.”

Arcady chuckled. “Your food is on the BDC.”

“Oh. Great. Where are we going?”

“To Klauz’s. It’s in the same building, and you will be able to go up there and have a meal for lunch and dinner.”

She sighed. “This is going to be one expensive pregnancy.”

Arcady squeezed her. “I know.”

Chapter Two

Week one was strange, and there was a lot of acclimatization. Mortimer was now king of the enormous apartment and liked to sit on his stand while she wrote music.

Being able to spend all day with her hobby meant that she had to set timers to go to her standing reservation at Klauz’s. She had a table for one at every meal.

She was able to order from a menu and not get Klauz to her table. She wanted to get in and out and back to her music.

Music was her passion, but she didn’t want to sell it; she was just compelled to make it. Ever since her body had started to vibrate with sound, she had been locked into making music.

She finished her meal and left the restaurant, running into Arcady and her other three partners. “Oh, hi.”

Arcady looked disappointed. “I thought we had enough time to catch you today.”

“Um, I just eat and leave.”

Arcady bounced on her feet. “What did Klauz get for you?”

“I ordered off the menu.”

“What?”
