Maia wakes up with a persistent longing to research baby names, triggered yesterday by Dub telling her the meaning of her name. Finding a name with a special meaning for her baby is significant. On a whim, she looks up her mother’s name, Elise, and finds out it means ‘pledged…
Now that we’ve talked to my parents, it’s time to move on to Maia’s dad, and I’m not looking forward to it at all. We have to call him on the phone because Maia says he won’t know how to use video chat. I’m not too keen on seeing his…

After spending the entire day getting ready, which includes drastically changing his appearance, Mase arrives nervously at the Old Quarter restaurant in Windenburg, where Zoe…
