Your phone was propped up on the table as you were on a video call with your husband, Marco. You took a step back, holding your little nephew, Luca, by the hand. Both of you wore matching outfits, smiling brightly as you showed them off to Marco.

But what you didn’t know… was that Marco had already returned to Italy. He just hadn’t told you yet wanting to surprise you.

Suddenly, Luca giggled, snatching the phone before dashing away.

“Luca! Give that back!” you called out, struggling to chase him in your heels.

As he ran, he spoke excitedly, “Uncle Marco, you’re going to be a dad, right?”

Marco froze. “What?”

Oblivious, Luca continued, “Auntie is pregnant!”

Marco’s eyes widened, but Luca wasn’t done. “Am I finally getting a cousin? She’s been craving blueberries—”

Before he could finish, you finally snatched the phone from him. Slightly out of breath, you looked at the screen, only to see Marco laughing uncontrollably, amusement gleaming in his eyes.

Later that night, after Luca had fallen asleep he spent most of his time with you because of how attached he was you stepped into the living room. Wearing a silky nightgown, you curled up on the couch, watching a movie.

Then, your phone buzzed with a message from Marco.

“Open the door.”

You frowned. Marco? Here? That couldn’t be he was supposed to be away, wasn’t he?

Slowly, you got up and walked to the door. And the moment you opened it… you froze.

Marco was there.

Leaning casually against his car, a soft smile on his face.

But that wasn’t all. Behind him, his men were unloading bags and boxes, carrying them inside.

Marco stepped closer, his eyes warm and longing before he pulled you into a tight embrace.

Leaning in, he whispered near your ear,

“Blueberry cake, blueberry candy, blueberry juice… and a whole box of fresh blueberries. Is this what my beautiful wife has been craving, hmm?”
