OAKLAND's GREATEST

Chapter 19

Chapter 19: The SON of Roses. (part 1)

"Our Baby." Rome said as Gregg interjected, "Or Our baby. You dont know what this means. He can be pregnant with the next up in line for King of Garlandia." Both men stared at each other and Rome argued, "and just how you feel about your country is how I feel about my own empire. He can be carrying the prince of my legacy!"

"Well one thing for damn sure you are carrying my grandbaby. And you two need to leave. He cant be stressing like this. We shall be in contact. Its time you exit....to the left."

One Month Later (March 15.2021)

"The baby has a healthy heartbeat. And you are 14 weeks pregnant. I am going to start you on some prenatal medicine, they are organic due to this being a very rare pregnancy. Its only 3 cases and last one was in 2002. The baby ended up dying during birth in Osaka, Canada. Now I know this is scary but we are into the second trimester and I need to have a definitive answer as what you want to do. If you are still on teamBaby then we go forward. This means weekly checkups, bed rest at 7 months, testing every month. I know this sounds like a lot, but I am going to do everything in my power to make sure your baby comes out healthy and warm in your arms. Ill give you two a minute" Doctor Rhimes stated as he nodded and walked out of the exam room. I sat up as my mom rubbed the jelly off my belly and said, "What are you going to do?"

"Part of me wants to keep the baby but it took us 2 weeks for my physicians to find an OB-GYN with at least the knowledge of a pregnancy like this. Mom what if" I started as she sucked her teeth and told me, "Don't you dare go there. We are strong. I beat cancer last year. Both of your Dads beat death numerous times. Trust me you and this baby can survive labor and delivery. What these doctor do is tell you the facts....to cover their asses, but miracles happen every day and if a baby is what you want then thats what we shall do. We will not listen to what Rome wants, what Gregg wants, and sadly its not what I want." She pressed her finger against my chest and said, "Its what you want." I nodded and took a deep breath and exhaled, "I think I want the baby mom."

The exam door opened and Setta walked in, "bitch this bougie ass place got a spa to help promote a natural birth. You are definitely having the baby here.  Fuck the nasty hospital food." We both laughed at her as she peeled back her banana as she looked at us and pursed her lips.

"Did I ruin a moment?"

"Not at all. Come here. I have decided. I am going to keep the baby." I told her as she ran over and hugged me tight and I hugged her back.

"Yessssssss! I am going to be a godmama. I am livinggg for this. So when is the due date?" Setta asked all excitedly.

"August 29th. The week of conception was"

"Thanksgiving Weekend. That doesnt make it any better as to who the other father to this baby is....so um can we do like a pregnancy test from the womb?" Setta asked as Doctor Rhimes walked back in and answered her, "Our objective is to get Isaiah to 9 months and deliver. We have so many other blood test and things to run that we dont want to risk going in for testing if it isnt needed."

"Its sort of isss because see he maybe carrying the heir to a African Dynasty." Setta said as Doctor Rhimes eyebrow rose as My Mama interjected, "So we shall know the gender and DNA make up once the baby is here."

"DNA MAKE UP IS HERE. As for gender it is a boy." He admitted and Setta gasped, "Oh My God!!!!! I can cry. My baby having a baby. And before my ass."

"Well bitch you got like 5 already. Please wait!" I added as I stared at her and exhaled, "This is crazyyyy."

I walked into my beauty bar and went into my office and quickly took a seat. I rubbed my face and opened my Macbook. Just as I logged in a FaceTime from Gregg was coming in. I took a deep breath and answered. His face came up and it seemed it was at the gym.
