It's been two weeks since Karina and Chris's conversation on canceling the wedding. The two haven't talked much since that night and it was tearing Chris up inside. Karina would only say 'Morning', 'I'm getting in the bed', 'Food is ready', and 'I'm going to the warehouse, Zaire is in his crib'. She never said anything more than that unless she was singing and talking to Zaire. He felt like she was avoiding him but in reality she just didn't know what else to say to Chris after he basically told her he didn't want to marry her. And Chris didn't know what to say either, afraid that whatever he said would put them into a deeper hole.
He would walk into their room to see her already in the bed sleep and he would wake up to an empty bed. He hated this and he had to fix quick.
"Rina?" Chris said as he opened the door to their office space. Karina looked up from her laptop. "You hungry?"
"Nah." She shook her head and continued to look at him. He tucked in his lips and nodded.
"I'm finna head out right quick. I'll be back." She nodded her head and he closed the door. He went to Zaire's room to make sure he was still sleeping and then he left out the house for a couple of hours.
"I need you boo, I gotta see you boo. And the hearts all over the world tonight, said the hearts all over the world tonight." Karina sung to Zaire as she changed his diaper. Zaire smiled and cooed at Karina as she sung and smiled at him. "You like that song huh?" Zaire squealed and Karina laughed. Karina stopped singing and Zaire frowned. He screamed loudly and kicked his legs making Karina lose her grip on the diaper. "Okay well excuse me mister. Hey lil fella, ooh your a stunner, cute chubby cheeks, yes your a winner and i'm so glad i'm your mom. You're the cutest thing i've seen and ooh lil cutie when you babble to me, I swear my whole world stops. You're my sweetheart and I'm glad to call you mine, you are one of a kind and."
Chris leaned against the doorway and admired Karina as she sung to their son. Zaire loved his dad deeply but Chris knew that he admired Karina, who wouldn't. Karina nibbled on his little feet and he laughed loudly while clapping his hands. Chris made a noise causing both Karina and Zaire to stop laughing. Karina looked towards Chris and gave him a faint smile. She noticed he was dressed up a little bit and furrowed her eyes.
"Didn't know you were back." She said buttoning up Zaire's onesie.
"Yea I been back a few minutes." It was quiet and she picked up Zaire. Zaire saw Chris and smiled big making Chris smile big too. "Go get dressed, I got him." Chris reached for Zaire and she placed him in Chris's hands. She walked away and went into their room to shower, get dressed and fix her ponytail. While Karina got dressed, Chris looked in the drawers for something for Zaire to wear. "What you wanna wear lil man?" He held up a shirt and Zaire frowned. He held up another one he frowned again. He sighed and shook his head. "You already act like me and you not even 1 yet." He mumbled. Zaire laughed and clapped his hands causing Chris to laugh too. After many more shirts and shorts, He finally found an outfit Zaire liked. He put on his little shoes, grabbed his custom made infant car seat and put him inside.
