"Brielle Mae had a seizure due to her forming a small case of epilepsy." A doctor said to Tobias. Tobias opened his mouth to say something but nothing came out. He looked away from the doctor's eyes and looked at his parents who were already staring at him.

"I c-can't do this" Tobias said as he raised his hand up. He shook his head and his father stepped toward him but Tobias took a step back.

"Tob-" cutting off his father's words, Tobias looked at Trinity who was standing off to the side, already looking at him. "Let's go" he said to her making her frown and shake her head.

Tobias grabbed her hand and pulled her away from everyone. Trinity casted a glance back at the doctor and his parents before she let Tobias drag her to the front door of the hospital.

"Let's sit down" Trinity said as she stopped him from taking her to the car. She pulled him to the small bench and sat him down before sitting down next to him.

"What's going through your head" she asked him after a few minutes of silence and sitting. Tobias breath out a small sigh and leaned back against the bench.

"I can't listen to that doctor tell me that my daughter has something wrong with her" He said running a hand down his face.

"Tobias having epilepsy is not meaning that something is wrong with her" Trinity said looking over at him. He glanced at her before looking at his lap with another sigh.

"She just has something that makes her unique and there's nothing wrong with being unique" Trinity asked awkwardly as she tried to figure out what to say.

"I don't even really know exactly what epilepsy is" Tobias mumbled and Trinity smiled.

"That's what doctors are for you big dumbie" She replied and Tobias laughed shaking his head.

"Oh shut up" Tobias said as he smiled. Trinity sent him a smile before looking away at the cars in the parking lot.

"How do I explain something like that to her" He asked her and Trinity bit her lip.

"You tell what she would understand and then when she gets older, you will explain it a little bit better to her"

Tobias looked at her and sighed nodding his head. "Okay" he mumbled before he ran a hand down his face. He nodded once more and stood up.

"You ready to go in?" Trinity asked and he nodded. She mumbled a small okay before getting up as well. He walked back into the hospital with her following behind him.

"Tobias" Asia said as she saw him walk back into the waiting room. The doctor was still there with them and Tobias walked up to him.

"Can I see my daughter?" He asked him to which to the doctor replied with a small nod of his head. Tobias looked back at Trinity who nodded at him before he left with the doctor as he led Tobias to Brielle's room.

"What did you say to him" Asia asked and Trinity smiled.

"That it's okay to be different and that this doesn't change anything" She said before she sat down in one of the waiting room chairs.

"So no one thought to call one of us to tell us that our niece was in the hospital" Anissa said angry as she walked into the waiting room with little Desiree in her arms.

"Oh God I'm sorry I forgot" Asia said and apologize to which Anissa's frown softened.

"Oh no mama A I was talking to Trinity. You don't have to explain yourself it's okay" She said before turning her attention to Trinity who looked at her guiltily.

"Look I was trying to be there for your brother in law" Trinity said putting her hands up as she shrugged.

"Fine you get a pass" Anissa mumbled before sitting down in one of chairs. She laid Desiree down on her lap and held her head in the crook of her arm as she bounced her leg up and down.

"Where's Noble" Trinity asked and Anissa mumbled that he was parking the car.

"Where's Tobias" She asked and Trinity looked up to see him walking back over to them. "Right there" Trinity replied and Anissa looked over.

"Hey how is she?" Anissa asked Tobias when he neared closer.

"She's okay and breathing" Tobias responded and sat down next to Trinity with Anissa on the other side of him. "She isn't awake yet but if you guys want to see her you can"

"What exactly happened" Anissa asked just as Noble walked into the waiting room with a stressed out look on his face.

"She has epilepsy and had a seizure" Tobias replied and Anissa's eyes widened.

"Oh my god" she said and shook her head looking at the ground.

"She's okay though that's all that matters. The doctor is going to come back to tell me more about epilepsy and what to do and how to help her." Tobias said and Anissa nodded her head. She sighed and looked down at Desiree with a saddened look on her face.

"We'll go see her" Tobias and Noble's parents said before they left the waiting room. Trinity looked at Tobias who look extremely exhausted.

"Uh bro why don't you go home and get a shower maybe get some sleep. We will stay with Brielle and make sure she's okay" Noble said and Tobias looked at him before sighing and nodding.

"Come on Trinity I'm sure you are tired you should go home and get some rest as well" Anissa said to the girl who shook her head.

"You guys been here for a while" Noble added and Trinity stood up.

"I'll call my sister to pick me up" Trinity said as she grabbed her phone.

"No it's okay I can take you home" Tobias mumbled as he stood up as well. Trinity looked over at him and nodded. Trinity waved a good bye to Anissa and Noble before leaving behind Tobias.
