Tierra POV
I was in the grocery store with Kane shopping for some things for the house. Him and Neaveah were staying the weekend over so we were getting groceries for that.
"Mm" I said rubbing my stomach as we stood in the snack isle.
"You okay" Kane asked.
I nodded "yea. Get the Pringle's you said she likes Pringle's right" I asked.
He nodded "yea what snacks do the boys like" he asked.
I felt another pain and then something between my legs.
I looked down as my grey tights seeing wet stains running from between my legs.
"Kane we gotta go" I said quickly.
"What's wrong" he asked looking at me.
"My water just broke" I said quickly.
"Oh shoot let's go" he said.
"What about the snacks" I asked.
"We gotta get you to the hospital" he said.
I nodded and we left and got in his car and he drove me to the hospital.
"I have to call Taj I told him I'd tell him when it's time" I said pulling out my phone.
"Do what you gotta do we almost there" he said.
I nodded and called him and let him know and he said he'd meet me up there and as we got there he was outside with a wheel chair.
He got me out the car and into the seat.
"Baby imma park the car but I swear I'll be up there as soon as I can" Kane said.
I nodded and Taj wheeled me inside and they got me checked in and into a room.
They got me prepped and then it was time to push.
"You ready, you got this" Taj said taking my hand.
I looked to the door.
"Kane is supposed to be here" I said.
"Tierra this ain't his baby" Taj said.
"Nigga I know that" I said looking at him.
"Ma'am the only people allowed is the parents and or grandparents" a nurse said.
"When-" I stopped and yelled feeling an contraction so I started to push with it.
After 4 hours of labor Tahir Jairo Jenkins came out.
He was 8 pounds exactly, my biggest child and 58.1 inches long. With a head full of hair and screaming.
"You did it" Taj said kissing the side of my head.
I nodded feeling short of breath.
"You okay" he asked.
"I can't breathe" I said.
"Hey she can't breathe" he called out and they came over and put me on an oxygen mask until my breathing was regulated.
"Ms Jackson do you have asthma" the nurse asked.
"No" I said.
"We may need to check for that" she said.
"You okay" Taj asked kissing my forehead.
I nodded.
They brought the baby and we were able to hold him before they took him.
"See if Kane is outside the room" I said to Taj.
He looked at me sucking his teeth.
"Tierra the fuck you see in his goofy ass and do he really know you" Taj asked me.
I knew what he was referring to.
"He doesn't need to know" I simply said.
Taj shook his head "imma go find my son" he said and left out the room.
A few sounds later Kane came in.
"Hey baby" he said smiling.
"Hey, 4 hours and he came out weighing 8 fucking pounds" I said.
"I saw him when they wheeled him he's gonna be tall" he said.
I nodded.
"What's this for, you okay" he asked seeing I held an oxygen mask.
"They think I have asthma" I said.
He nodded and we kissed.
"Congratulations" he said.
I smiled "thank you" I said.
"You tired" he asked.
"A little" I said.
He kissed my forehead and nodded.
"I can go to your house and get your bag and the carseat" he said.
"It's okay my moms bringing it when she comes. I'm sad we can't have the sleepover this weekend. I know how much Neveah was looking forward to it"I said.
"She'll be okay I'll bring her up to see you and the baby" he said.
I nodded.
Taj and a nurse came in.
"She say only one person can stay in the room with her and the baby and I ain't leaving" Taj said.
"Taj" I said looking at him as he looked at Kane.
Kane looked at me as the nurse checked me and my vitals.
"No baby it's fine, I'll be back to check on you I have to go get Veah" he said.
I nodded.
"Thank you" I said to him.
He nodded and we shared a kiss and then he left.
"You good, want some water or anything" Taj asked.
"Where my son" I asked.
"We will bring him back in about 20 minutes ms Jackson" the nurse said.
I nodded and thanked her.
She left out and Taj sat in the chair beside my bed.
"Where's my phone" I asked.
He shrugged.
"Well call it" I said.
"Tierra how can you be with him and he he don't know the real you. So you really living a double life, that ain't love" Taj said.
"Taj call my phone" I said.
"And why do you care you got someone you seeing" I said.
"Man I gotta bitch that I fuck time to time but you know where my heart belongs" he said.
"I don't know shit but I need to know where my phone at" I said.
"So you telling me all that ain't mean nothing you ain't got no more feelings" he asked.
I looked around the room to see if it was placed somewhere.
"Tierra" Taj said he had his hand on my thigh.
"Taj what" I said growing annoyed.
"G tell me you don't miss me" he said looking at me.
I looked at him but I couldn't say it.
"I'm not doing this, I need my phone my mom is bringing me and the babies stuff" I said.
Taj reached over me and I could feel my breath hitch and I looked at him.
He kept eye contact the whole time until he handed me my phone.
I broke our gaze and took my phone and called my mom. She didn't know I had the baby but I didn't want Kane snooping around my house I trust him but I still had to watch my back.
Taj stayed with me all three days and Kane came back and forth. The kids came and met their little brother and it really hit that I had four kids now at 22 years old.
Life was moving so fast for me.
