Behind The Scenes

Dee

1 day later

Dee inspected the off-white wall for the thousandth time that day. "Anything interesting?" The nurse gave Dee her hourly check up.

"Well nurse May, there's a huge spider in the corner, judging by the size of it's legs, it's probably a Daddy long legs." Dee yawned as she tore her eyes away from the wall.

"Where's the handsome man and your daughter gone?" Nurse Brown asked while checking her pulse. "Oh no, Samara isn't actually my daughter." Dee shook her head.

"Stepdaughter?" Again, Dee shook her head no. "Adopted daughter?" The nurse asked. "Something like that." Dee smiled faintly.

"So where are they?" The nurse asked again. "My boyfriend took the little girl to nursery, they'll be back later." Dee reached for the tv remote. "Oh okay, would you like some food?" The nurse placed a plate of spaghetti bolognese in front of Dee, Dee wrinkled up her face in disgust. "You know I don't eat that nasty shit!" Dee laughed and pushed the food away.

"I got you baby girl." The nurse winked and produced a box of peri wings, Dee's grin couldn't of got any wider. Nurse brown started to walk away before calling, " Five days from now, you're going to leave me alone with all of these mad,ill and injured people!"
Dee chuckled and tucked in to a wing.

"Hoe!" Deme shouted as she strolled in to the room, Mahayma and Tyrell following behind her. "Hey guys!" Dee smiled as they hugged her. "Deme what happened to your head?" Dee pointed at the bandage on her head. "You look like Mr bump from the Mr men books!" Dee cracked up at her own joke. "On a serious note, you better tell me now before I jump out of this bed and whoop your ass." Dee threatened.

"Shamaar pushed me and I banged my head, the doctor said I had a mild concussion." Deme shrugged as Dee turned towards Mahayma. "So where's Shamaar?" Dee raised an eyebrow.

"Not right now, there's a time and a place and this is neither one of them." Mahayma exhaled deeply. "Mahayma, if he hurt you, I will cut off his dick and feed it to Blu because nobody messes with my-" Dee stopped her sentence as Samara ran towards her.

"Sammy!" Dee yelled and held her arms open, waiting for a hug from Samara. "How was she?" Dee asked Byron after he kissed her. "Hey baby, I've missed you." Bryon's baritone voice caused Dee to bite her lips. "I can tell you missed me too." Byron licked his lips.

"Umm, we're still here!" Tyrell waved his hand in the air. "How was nursery Sammy?" Tyrell scooped Samara up and put her on his knee. "I wet myself." Samara looked at the floor in shame. "At nursery?" Tyrell questioned, Samara nodded. "Why?" Mahayma gently played with Samara's braids.

"Because, it was either eat my food or go to the toilet but if I went to the toilet then Jerry would eat my food so I chose food." Samara shrugged.

"I can't wait for you to come back home." Byron kissed Dee again. "The nurse said five days." Dee kissed her teeth. "That's so far away."

"Five days? Tyrell, I'm going to need you to babysit in five days." Byron winked.

Dee let out a yawn and rolled on to her side. "Dee. Dee. Dee. Dee" Deme called. "What?" Dee shouted. "I love you." Deme blew a kiss. "No, I do!" Samara yelled. "No I do." Byron chuckled. Dee smiled and laid her head down.
