EJ Brooks 📇
The doctor📍
3pm⌚️„One week until your due date, how do you feel?" Crystal's doctor asked him while he laid there with that gel shit on his stomach.
"Very nervous to meet him but I'm ready." Crystal smiled at his doctor, I'm just sitting here in the corner pissed off about how stupid I am.
We had an argument earlier because I told Crystal not to take back his job when we drove by the shop he works at and just let me take care of him and our baby.
I only meant it well but Crystal told me multiple times that he loves his job and I should stop trying to convince him about it.
I understand what he's saying but somehow I always bring the shit up because I know that when he goes back to work we won't spend as much time together.
There was a knock at the door and the doctor stood to his feet to open it and get the pee results from a lady.
"Okayy.." the doctor looked over the paper and copied it into his computer to digitally keep it in Crystals folder I guess.
I looked at Crystal and when he noticed it he didn't even look my way he just side eyed me and rolled his eyes before turning his head away from me completely.
He told me that was tired of me bringing up topics that I knew he didn't like to talk about, I always slip up and start shit on accident.
"Oh.. uhm I am looking at your protein levels right now and you are definitely at a high risk for eclampsia." The doctor said while finishing what he's doing and then going to check Crystal's blood pressure with the band around his arm.
"Breathe in." He gave Crystal instructions while I sat up in my chair, I don't know what that is but by how quick the doctor is moving I know that something isn't right.
"You definitely shouldn't stress right now just stay calm, your blood pressure is very high and that's from stress, anxiety or depression. You'll have to go to the hospital today and deliver the baby so the risk of something going wrong doesn't get higher." He quickly moved back to his computer and typed something in.
"Do you have a car here?" He asked me and I nodded my head, Crystal looked at me and he looked scared as shit.
I was scared too but I didn't show it so one of us kept calm in this situation, I got up from my chair and stood next to him to hold his hand.
"You can clean your stomach now, I'll be back in a second." The doctor left and I helped him clean the gel off.
"There might be something wrong with the baby?" He looked up at me with a pout on his face, I shook my head.
"He's fine, he dancing in there." I put my hand on his now clean belly, my attempt at trying to make him laugh failed.
He sobbed loudly and then cried into his hands, "noo" he whined, I looked at the door because the doctor was still not here.
"Don't stress baby." I reached for his hand but he smacked it away, "shut the fuck up Elijah, you're the main reason why this is happening right now." He snapped at me.
