Beauty and the beast

          "Unh unh you can't eat that." Dae said to me from the kitchen sink as he started making dish water. I was pulling out stuff to make a sandwich. "I can't eat what?" I made a confused face. "That lunch meat." "Huh? Why I can't?" "Cause I had googled foods you shouldn't eat while pregnant and lunch meat was on the list." "But bae I'm hungry and that's what I want." "We'll find you something else to eat nie put it back." "Oh my gosh!" I sucked my teeth and put the stuff back.

            "I'm two days pregnant, ain't shit gone happen to this baby." I mumbled as I slammed the refrigerator shut. "You actually twelve weeks now but who counting?" "Look like you." I rolled my eyes at him. "Leave me alone." He picked up his phone and started playing music. "When I'm finished washing these dishes we gone head to the doctor's appointment a lil early." "And get me some food." "Yes baby and get you some food."

"You the best." I beamed. I went in the snack cabinet and grabbed a hot sausage out the jar, a bag of hot cheetos and a fruit roll up. I sat at the island and opened my chips and fruit roll up. I wrapped the candy around the sausage and bit it. "Oou baby you need to try this." My eyes lit up at how good the concoction taste. He turned around to see what I was eating. "Fuck no!" He made a disgusted face. "And make this yo last hot sausage you eat too."

"Oh my goshhhh. I can't eat shit!" I huffed. He ignored me and kept washing the dishes. "I got this other nigga bitch tryna throat my dick." He muttered along to the song, bopping his head. "Bitch what?" I jumped up so fast I almost broke my fucking ankle going over there to pause the song. "Bae you just heard him say that shit, I'm just rapping along to the song." He quickly defended himself. "Yeah well don't sing it round me cause Key Glock gone get you fucked up in here."

"Man." He sucked his teeth. I skipped the song and another one started playing. "My exes still jealous cause they cannot be with me." Dae rapped the new lyrics. "Mh hm yeah, I like this one. Much better." I nodded. Baby I got PTSD, he can't play no shit like that round me. He definitely can't rap it, them lyrics too close to home for us! After quickly finishing my snacks, I went up stairs to throw on a quick outfit. I put on some flair yoga pants and the tee shirt to match.

           I slipped on my favorite gucci slides and grabbed a purse. "You ready?" Dae came walking in the room. "Yes." I nodded. "Let's ride." He grabbed one of his hat and put it then walked out the room. I walked out behind him. As he went to the boys rooms to check on them, I made my way downstairs. "Ight come on." He came downstairs and grabbed a key off the wall. We walked in the garage, he hit the unlock button on the key-fob, the head lights of his Benz truck lit up.

After we were both in the car, I said a quick prayer and we were off to the hospital for my check up. "So we gone find out what we having now?" He turned and looked at me for a second. "No baby it's too early." "Man." He sucked his teeth. "That's the reason I was so excited, I thought we was gone find out about my son." "You just so confident it's a boy." I laughed. "Trust me, I know it is." "Yeah ight, we gone see when the time come." I chuckled.

We rode and talked until we got to the appointment. I signed in and sat down as Dae grabbed the clipboard for me to fill out. But instead of handing it to me as he sat down, he started filling it out himself. "Boy are you putting the right stuff?" I laughed as I tried to reach and grab the clipboard from him. "Man yes, watch out." He leaned over so I couldn't reach it and kept filling it out. "Creep." I stuck my tongue at him.

           "You love it." He stuck his back at me. "ROBERTS!" I we stood up and another girl stood up. The nurse looked between us then down at the clipboard. "First name starts with an M." We both stayed standing. "Marcy." The other girl said. "Makyha." "Makyha Roberts." The nurse said. Me and Dae continued walking as the other girl sat down with a huff. "Right this way." The nurse said as we stood and waited for her.
