Chapter 51

"What you mean you're dying? You're not dying Harv don't say that!" I punched his arm as we parked. "Heav calm down. I shouldn't have said that." He grabbed my hand to stop me from hitting him. "Yeah you shouldn't have." "I mean it's true." He says so I attempt hitting him again. "No it isn't Harvey shut up." I cried.

"Heaven it's true. My lungs are all fucked up." He pulled me into his chest and I just cried. "You don't even smoke." I said. "I know but second hand is a bitch." "You shouldn't have went to the army Harvey. Then this wouldn't have happened. None of this crap! I hate you." I pulled back from him and got out the car. "Heaven!" He called after me and tried to touch me. "Don't fucking touch me." I punched him once more in his arm before storming pass everyone and going into the restaurant.

"What happened?" Lai asked me when she walked into the restaurant bathroom. "I don't want to talk about it." I told her trying to calm myself down for my son's sake. "You sure?" I looked at the concern on her face and sighed. "Yeah." "You know it's not good to keep everything bottled up right?" She says and I laughed. "So you using my words against me?" She laughed. "Just a little." "I can't talk about it really. But let's go mama's hungry." I kissed her cheek and grabbed her hand. "When aren't you hungry." "F youuu." I sung and she laughed.

"Y'all look like a lesbian couple that wanted twins but both wanted to carry the baby." Aaron says and I popped his head as everyone laughed. "It's true tho Heav." O says. "Well this my baby so." Lai kissed me right by my lip which made it look like she actually kissed me on the lips. "Aye cut that shit out." Josh yelled which made us giggled. "Shut the fuck up yo. I like this type of kinky shit." Wade says. "Don't you owe me an apology?" I asked him as my uncle helped me sit in my chair. "Yeah. Sorry." He looked down at the table.

"I'll never walk into a pregnant woman getting fucked ever again even if she do have a nice ass." He chuckled and I threw my silverware at him. "Damn B." He dodge real quick. "I'm snitching." I warned him. "Wait no! I don't want to die! I'm sorry!" He begged picking up my silverware that was wrapped in a napping up from the floor. "See you can have mine and I'll have this one." He gave me his silverware and we laughed.

"So you not going to talk to me?" Harvey followed me into my house. "Do they know?" I asked him. "Who?" He asks. "Your wife and daughter dumbass." I snapped. "No. I don't know how to tell them." He said. "You have to say something Harv. It's been months. You can't just one day be laying up in the hospital and I be the only one who knows what's going on. And you can't be going around saying your dying. You need to have faith that God well get you through this." I told him and he shook his head. "Heav I haven't talked to Him since the last time mom and dad dragged me to church." He sighed.

"But it's okay. He's forgiving. He's been watching over you even if you've been wrong to Him. He loves you Harvey no matter what." I touched his shoulders. "Then why am I like this after I went and served my country. Why did I get punished this way? He couldn't just kill me on the field? I didn't even ask to come home. They made me do it." "Bro he has a plan. Getting pregnant wasn't in my plans, it was His. You can't just go based on what these doctors with same piece of paper and lab coat change how you feel about our Father. You just can't Harvey. You can't." I wiped my tears.

"Come to church with me on Sunday." I told him.

"Hi." I spoke softly as Caution sat in front of me. "Sup lil mama." He says and I giggled a little. "This don't even feel right." We both looked around at the other inmates being visited. "Yeah I know. But now that I'm on maternity leave and everyone know that we're together, I can only visit you." I told him. "So if they didn't find out, you'll still be able to go back there to the room?" He asked. "No because I'm on leave, therefore Glenn gets all of my current cases." "O."

"Can we talk about names?" I asked. "Naw. Whatever you choose I'm down." He says. "But what if it's too girly?" I asked. "I know you ain't gon try me and my son like that." I laughed. "Alright. What about his room? I've been looking at some stores and took pictures of what I liked." I took my iPad out and went to my photos. "Angel I'm serious. I don't care what you do. If you want it, get it." He shrugged. "Okay. Well do you want to see what I bought so far?" I asked hopefully. "You really excited huh?" He chuckled as I nodded my head yes quickly. "Iight let me see."

I tarted showing him things I bought that we didn't already receive from the baby shower. "This stuff was worth at least $2000 all together." He says. "Yeah just about. But this is my first so I don't care." I shrugged. "Heav I told you to use my cards. Yet my accounts are just about the same." I sighed. "I know but everything I bought was expensive." "So why you ain't use one of my cards?" He questioned.

"Because I don't want to spend your money and I got money of my own." I looked down at my iPad, going through the pictures on my own. "Listen, anything under $300 you but." He says. "$850." "$550." He says. "Come on. You're already moving me in too. So your bills are going to go up. Let me just buy the rest. It's not a lot. Just the crib, stroller, and more car seats." I challenged. "How many car seats you trying to get?" He asked. "Well we got one at the shower but it was too girly so I was going to return that and get two more. One for you, one for me." He nodded. "You buy them and buy the crib and stroller with my money. That's that." I rolled my eyes. "Fine."

"How did I pick you up?" Caution says out of the blue. "What you mean?" I asked. "They changed my sentence. I'm supposed to get out in January now. And they told me how you was the reason behind it." He smiled at me. "I was just doing my job." I told him.

"You think they're going to let me go to the hospital when you in labor?" He asked. "I don't think so. She allowed you to get out before but you weren't convicted of anything." I told him. "O." I saw the disappointment in his face as his head lowered. "Baby." I touched his hand. "I'm sorry Angel." He spoke without looking at me. "Baby it's okay. I promise you." I got up and sat next to him with my back against the table since his side of the table only had a bench and my stomach couldn't fit.

"I failed you before he could even get here." He shook his head and I just placed it on my shoulder. "Caution it's okay." I rubbed his back when his hand went to my stomach. "See it's okay." I laughed when the baby started kicking. "I guess." He chuckled a little.

"What are you doing for your birthday?" He asked me. We were watching everyone leave since visiting hours was almost over. I literally spent all day in here from the time visiting hours started. "Nothing. I'm pregnant, Lai's pregnant, so I'll just continue to do what I been doing except I'll be in a new house." I said. "Yeah you should be moved in by then." "Yep. But don't think I'm not keeping my place. I may need to get away from you some days." I burst out laughing when he mean mugged me.

"So you think that shit's funny?" He gave me a blank face. I couldn't even answer because I was laughing so hard. "Okay I'm done." I covered my mouth and tried to stop. "You better be lucky." He tells me standing up.

"Lucky about?" I asked after he helped me up. "Me loving you." He says and I could feel my face heat up. "Oh." I whispered and he chuckled. "Stay safe and sexy too." I laughed. "I remember that day all to well." I told him. "Yeah that was the day I pulled out too late. But I'm glad I did." He placed his hands on both sides of my stomach.

"Hey Mr and Mrs visiting hours are over." I laughed at Keenan who was standing waiting for me to leave. "Iight nigga damn." I hit Caution's chest. "I love you Heaven." He whispered in my ear before kissing my neck. "I love you too baby." I moaned softly and he chuckled. "Keep me posted." He told me as we separated. "Always."
