Today was the day before Kentrell's birthday and I was supposed to be busy finding something for us to do for the day, however life had other plans..

"Oh my GODDD" I grunted in pain as I curled up the best I could in the hospital bed as another contraction came over me. Kentrell sat by my side, rubbing my back as tears filled my eyes. I don't even remember being in this much pain with Kemoni. Once the contraction was finally over I did a deep sigh and wiped my nose, sniffling as a tear fell from my eye

"Noel" Kentrell called my name "you cryin?"

"It hurts so bad. I can't do this Kentrell"

" Yes you can now stop sayin' that. You good Ight?" He continued rubbing my back and leaned over to kiss my forehead "you want 'em to give you that shot with the big ass needle"

I laughed a little and shook my head while I wiped my eyes "Issa epidural and no. It'll leave me with a fucked up back"

"Well you gone have to face the pain then. I wish I could do it for you"

"Trust me. No you don't" I assured him while the room door opened

"Noel you okay babygirl? Is he here yet?" My momma asked as she hurried over to me. I shook my head and continued to lay on my left side

"No. He need to hurry up cause I can't take this nomore"

"Yes you can"

"No I can't momma"

"Yes you can Noel. You did it once before, natural at that"

"Well she ain't hurt like this" I complained like a child "Let's just go home"

"Going home ain gone change shit" Kentrell told me and I cut my eyes at him

"Shut up. YOU the reason why im going through this again"

"Well shit" he shrugged and I rolled my eyes as another contraction quickly came.

"Owww" I began to cry out while I clutched onto my stomach. As the contraction came stronger I then gripped onto the side of the bed and shut my eyes close as the tears poured. "What the fuckkkk"

"You good?" Kentrell asked

"No! It hurts so fucking badddd. I want this baby outta me" I cried and my momma sighed as she pushed the loose pieces of my hair off of my face

"He'll be out soon baby. Stop thinking about the pain and think about that sweet little baby boy you'll have in a few hours"

"When you feel another contraction I need you to push as hard as you can sweetheart"

I shook my head and laid back against the pillow, hot as hell and beyond tired. My momma stayed on my right using a clipboard to fan me off and Kentrell was on my left, however once the baby came closer to coming out he practically pushed the other nurses out of the way to see what was going on.

"I'm too tired. I can't do this nomore"

"Noel you gotta push him out baby" my momma said to me and I shook my head

"He can stay exactly where he at. I'll start wearing dresses so he can pop his head out when he need some air"

Everybody in the room laughed at my comment, not knowing that I was dead serious. Kentrell walked back over to my side and grabbed my hand, seeming to be the most excited person in the room.

Once the contraction came the doctor looked away from the monitor and at me "push as hard as you can Noel"

I breathed deeply then started pushing as hard as I could, squeezing the hell out of Kentrell's hand. My momma rubbed my back while I continued to push but eventually gave up, hearing a lot of people practically yelling at me

"Come on Noel push for me again as hard as you can his heads right here" the doctor told me and Kentrell let go of my hand to go look again

"I'm too tired. I can't do it nomore"

Right now I was beyond exhausted and all I wanted to do was go to sleep. Kentrell walked back over to me and leaned down while he wiped the sweat beads off of my forehead

"Come on mane. He almost out just push one mo' time"

I shook my head, damn near feeling like I was about to just pass straight out. I've been up for a full 24 hours now.

"I can't"

"Yes you can. Just one mo' time. And you'll be done"

I weakly looked up at him. My body was about to give out from so much pain, I was exhausted and plus I was hungry. But I do want this baby out of me.

"Come on Noel. Just give me one strong push"

I did just as I was told, pushing as hard as I could again.

"Keep going baby. You doing good" my momma told me while she stopped fanning me.

I continued to push, feeling water build up in my eyes as I wanted to give up but couldn't.

"The head is out!"

Kentrell looked at me and smiled

"Just one more push babygirl" one of the nurses told me and for some reason I actually felt encouraged to push this last time, I guess because I knew that I really was about to be done this time so I pushed as hard as I can and not before long the sound of a baby's cry filled the room

"It's a boy!" The doctor yelled and I flopped back on the pillow.

"I'm so proud of you Noel" momma told me as she kissed my forehead. I looked to see if Kentrell was still on the other side of me but he was already over by the nurses with the baby. Eventually they gave him to Kentrell and he walked over to me with a smile on his face

"Well ain't that some shit" my momma said with a laugh as she looked at her phone then at us "it's 12:25 am"

I looked at Kentrell who wore a grin on his face as he sat down on the bed beside me "Well I guess it's a happy Birthday to both of my boys. Now I don't have to get you another birthday present for the rest of your life. It's right here"

Kentrell laughed "I ain even gone complain"

I looked down at my new baby boy who was just laying there sleep in kentrell's arms. I would take him but I really was too exhausted right now so I just leaned down the best I could and kissed his little cheek

"Mommy loves you Nasir"
