“Then how did you know?"

Blair rolled her eyes at her.

"That's not the point. Tell me, why don't you want to make love to Matthew? I'm pretty sure he wants to."

It was the twenty-first century now. Blair had thought her daughter would know what to do even if she didn't give her “the talk." Besides, back when Erica got married to Matthew, Blair thought she'd already had sex. But surprise, surprise! Erica was still a virgin! She didn't know anything about sex.

“Wow! My silly daughter!"

“He does..." Sitting on the sofa, Erica held her chin gloomily.

“Okay, so what's the problem?"

Erica fell silent. She had planned to discuss this with Rhea. But since

Blair had already asked, she knew that her mother wouldn't stop until she had an answer. She explained simply, “Well...it's just that I'ma little scared."

“Scared? Of what? Are you afraid of Matthew?" Matthew could wilt grown men with a look. Other people were afraid of him, but that wasn't

Erica.

“No, I'm not afraid of him. Mom...it's just... Okay, fine. I promise we'll start trying to make a kid." Erica stood up from the sofa and walked towards the door. She encouraged herself inwardly, ‘Come on,

Rika. It's just sex. I won't die from it, right? It's no big deal!"

Blair pulled her back.

"Rika, Listen to me..."

The girl pouted and gave her mother a look. There was meaning at that look. She was restless and unhappy.

“I get it, Mom. You want a grandkid. Well, I'm granting you your wish."

“Okay, but I want to tell you... Although it is really super-awkward the first time... Ahem!" Blair felt a little embarrassed. She coughed and continued, "It'll get better after that. Don't be afraid.”

Erica and Blair never talked about sex. It just wasn't something that came up. For a moment, Erica was a little shy too, so she stopped her with, "I know, Mom! I know!"

"I hope you do! Look, this is a win-win situation. Matthew should relax more. That guy is a cold one! Maybe being more Loving would loosen him up. A happier husband means a happier wife. And I want grandkids! So just do what comes naturally. Don't bring other people's babies back here, either! I want a grandkid who will stick around a while." Blair didn't want to raise other people's kids anymore. She was so sad when the Watts family took Ethan away.

“Sounds like she wants me to ask Matthew?' Erica nodded absentmindedly,

"I'LL do my best." But she didn't really know how to tell Matthew she wanted to make love.

Ten minutes later, the mother and daughter went downstairs. Wesley and

Matthew were sitting and chattering in the living room. They seemed to be having a good time.

Seeing that Erica went downstairs, Matthew stood up from his seat and walked towards her.
