One week later

.

Today is my birthday. Mom and dad have been saying their presents will be given after my party but one I get at the party. "Mah partay is today!" I cheer as I jump around the apartment.

Mom giggles as she lightly rubs her stomach. "I'm hungray," she laughs as she tries to match my rhyme scheme.

"So eat somethang," I laugh.

Dad comes into the kitchen. "Guys, shut up. I was napping," he groans.

"BUT MAH PARTAY IS TODAY DADDAY!" I yell.

Mom bursts out laughing. "She's hilarious today," she says as she eats a sandwich.

Dad glares at me, "she's so energetic."

I sneer at both of them. "When are we leaving?" I whine after a half an hour.

"Right now," mom sighs as she grabs dads hand.

We walk to the car. As dad drives to Grandma and Grandpa's house, mom whispers something in his ear. He looks at me in the rear view mirror before nodding. "What?" I ask as he parks the car.

Mom looks back at me. "Remember when I asked you if you wanted a little sibling?" dad asks.

I nod. "Happy birthday!" Mom smiles widely as she hugs me as best as she can.

I smile before getting out.

"PRESENT TIME!" Grandma Stormie calls.

Everyone gathers around and mom sits next to me. "How's the little person in there?" I ask referring to the baby.

She giggles. "Hungry, dads getting them some food right now. Which present is first?"

I point to the one of the presents. •• after I finish opening everything, I lean against mom. "Can I tell everyone?" I ask in a whisper. She nods. "MY PRESENT FROM MOM AND DAD IS A LITTLE SIBLING!" I yell to the crowd.

Everyone goes dead silent, then claps and cheers. "I thought they were going to freak the fuck out," mom laughs.

I giggle. "They seem pretty excited. Where'd dad go?" I ask as I glance around.

She shrugs. "He seems mad at me today," she sighs as she rests a hand on her belly.

"Let's go find him," I say as I drag her Into the house.

We find him sitting at the dining room table, staring at the floor blankly. "Babe," she whispers as she walks in front of him. She kneels down, looking up at him. "Are you okay?" She asks softly.

"She did it again," he mumbles 4 times.

She stands up and pulls his chin up. "What happened, babe?" She asks as she pulls him up from the chair.

He locks eyes with me and opens his arms. I walk over to him, wrapping my arms around his body. "She cut again and I can't stop it," he says quietly.

Mom looks into my eyes and mouths; "did you?" I mouth back a "not in a week."

She places a hand on dads back. "Riker, babe, come with me for a minute." She whispers.

He nods and walks off with her. "Ella!" A familiar voice calls. I look around the corner to see Grandma Mandy. "Happy birthday!" She exclaims as we share a hug.

I squeeze her tightly. "Thank you!" I giggle as we pull back.

"Where's Selena and Riker?" She smiles.

I shrug. "They went off somewhere to talk. He's acting weird," I sigh.

She nods. "It's not easy when you see your babies grow up," she says before walking off.
