Fading Shades of Daniel

Bigger and Bigger Closer and Closer

Sapphire's POV

"Doc, I'm about to burst" I said looking straight ahead as she took my height and weight.

"It's going to happen your carrying another life." Doctor Jimenez said. Her hand swirling around my 6 month pregnant belly.

"Another human, for God sakes" Daniel rudely interrupted. I usually ask Diggy questions about my weight. The same words Dr. Jimenez spoke was said by Diggy.

"Shut up Diggy! You put it there in the first place." I said as I stepped down from the scale.

"You helped me?" Diggy said shrugging. I licked my top row of teeth, after making an annoying clicking sound. Ms. Jimenez put the measuring tape around my tummy and wrote on her clip board.

"You look all good. All I need is some blood drawn and you are on your way out of here." Ms. Jimenez said. My smile dropped when I heard blood drawn. Blood + Needles= Not so good with me.

"Blood drawn. You must be out your mind to think you gone take blood from this body" I said putting on my shirt.

"I make sure she gets the blood drawn" Diggy said with my stuff in his hands. Taking my arm, Doctor Jimenez thanked Daniel.

"I'm not getting any blood drawn Diggy" I said. He ignored me and be continued to walk.

"Baby please. You know I'm scared of needles." I pouted he ignores me again now upsetting me a bit. We arrived down in the waiting room waiting to be called.

"That wasn't that bad, was it baby girl" Diggy said.

"It was bad, it hurt like hell" I said walking.

"I wasn't talking to you I was talking to her. Hey baby girl. How is it in there?" Diggy said rubbing my tummy. I chuckled a bit.

"Asshole" I said as we continued through the parking lot.

"What did you say?" Diggy asked as he stops me in my tracks.

"Nothing, Baby boy. Now keep walking" I said with a smile.

"Ok" Diggy said walking to the drivers side of the gray Porshe.

"Asshole" I repeat a bit louder as he ducked to enter the car. Entering the car his eyes on me as he starts the car. The death glare made me burst into a fit of laughter as we pulled off.

"You look beautiful" Justine complimented as I waddled into the Simmons' Household.

"Thank you. I can say the same for you. You always look wonderful though" I said as a smile grow on Justine's face.

Diggy's POV

"Hello I'm here, hey " I said waving at the two females.

"Don't be jealous" My mom said. I sucked my teeth.

"What am I jealous of?" I asked my mom.

"Many things, come on Sweetheart. You don't need to be around moody Daniel" My mom said dragging Sapphire to the basement. My father coming down the stairs spotted me.

"How was the appointment?" He asked.

"Cool, Sapph and the baby is doing well, how was your day?" I asked. He smiled.

"Glad you asked. I wanted to plan a family trip and your brothers are no help."

"So you want me to help you?"

"Sure do" He said.

"But, I can't go anywhere with my daughter arriving soon" I spoke to my father in a serious tone.

"Ok, if you change your mind you know where to find me." He said.

"In the studio" I said as he walked down into the basement. I sat in the kitchen for a few minutes until I was greeted by Russy.

"What's up, Dig" Russy said, dapping me.

"Nothing much and you?" I asked. Angela and Vanessa walked pass.

"Hey Dig" They said in unison.

"Hey" I replied to the two.

"Nothing, Sapphire here too?" Vanessa asked.

"Yeah, she's in the with mom in the basement" I said. They walked off to the basement. Leaving me and Russell here once again. We continued to talk about anything.
