It has been two days, Shyla still hasn't woken up from coma. The doctor said that she was just under a lot of stress and hadn't been sleeping like she could have been.
I wonder what's reall on her mind.
Her phone rung, it was a unknown caller, so I answered.
"Hello?"
"Hello, this is the Dean from the University of Illinois at Normal. I was calling for Shyla Braxton, is she around?"
"She is sleeping right now." I said when I felt a tug on my other hand.
"Hold up?" I said turning and looking at Shyla.
"Boy, do you not notice that I'm woke?" She said in a whisper.
I honestly didn't I had to do a double take.
"Baby, you woke!" I said ducking down with a smile to give her a hug and kiss.
"Yes, that was the best but worst sleep ever." She said with a raspy voice,"I need some water."
I grabbed the water from off the table in front of her and put the straw in her mouth.
She sipped the water.
"I could hear you the whole time, just didn't have the strength to open my eyes and move my mouth." She said with her eyes closed.
"So you saying that you heard me crying, praying, and singing to you?"
"Yes the whole thing."She said showing her smile. Her smile was still beautiful even though she hasn't brushed her teeth.
"I hope my baby is okay." I said putting my whole hand on her stomach.
"Go get the doctor." She said in a panick.
I ran out the door to the front desk to ask for Doctor Hill.
"She's woke."
"That's great, nurse go and check on Mrs. Livingston in room 204."
"Okay."
The nurse went into the room with Shyla and I.
She took her vitals, and listened around for the baby.
The nurse looked up with a smile,"The baby is fine, I can hear the little heart beat."
I felt a feeling of relief brushed onto me.
"Thank you, when could I leave?" Shyla asked.
"You could leave today, but it will be like in two hours."
"Yeah thats fine."
"I was so worried about you the whole time." I said.
"I know I heard you the whole time."
"Yeah, now I'm slick embarrassed."
"Don't be, I want that from you Deshun. You just have a soft spot for me, that's perfectly fine."She said holding my face in her hands,"Give me my purse."
I handed it to her.
She put on some of her lip gloss in her compact mirror.
"That feels so good."She said rubbing her lips.
"Yeah them things were really chapped," I said laughing."But I would still kiss them."
"Boy if you don't stop." She said laughing. "I am so hungry."
"When you leave from here lets go downtown and get some food truck food." I said getting too happy.
"Yes, can we go to the one by the big square water thing."
