“Well it’s still nice to have fresh bread,” Jack said as he kept her close, wrapping his other arm around her gently. “And we can toast it against the fire l-like I used to with my parents. Fruit is good, though… we’ll need that.” he said, whilst resisting the urge to touch her stomach.
Even if she wasn’t pregnant, Katelynn still had to keep eating properly for her own health.
Katelynn began to walk forward, looking through the different vendors for food, finding one that sold turkey meats in the form of slices of bacon and such. Katelynn ordered a half pound of that.
“W-Where’s that bakery you told me about? I’d really like to buy my bread from them.”
Taking the meat, she stuffed it into the bag and paid for it. “Thank you,” she told the vendor.
“Oh, Mrs. Lee! This, this way.” he gestured, taking her hand, and led her from the meat stall towards a few other stalls. They pass them, people singing their wares as usual, until the smell of bread hung thick in the air.
A young man around sixteen, seventeen, was at the front of the store taking orders. Behind him a couple were working on taking some bread out from an old style wooden stove.
“H-Hey Mark.” Jack greets.
“Jack!” Mark, the young man, said. “Mom, Mom, it’s Jack! And he’s got a girl with him!”
Jack blushed. Why was everyone so shocked he had a ‘girl’ with him…?
