It's A Thug Thing - Book 2

Chapter 161

Tamia

These months have flown by. December was a busy month, my boo graduated, Christmas was amazing, and the New Year was epic.

Ariel took me to the Dominican Republic for two weeks for Valentine's Day, so I could clear my mind and actually start mentally preparing to give birth. 

It's now the end of March, and all the ladies in my life have all taken turns coming by and checking on me and my babies. Ariel's been up under me since I hit my 36 week mark and I just feel so loved.

I feel my phone vibrating but can't find it. "Babe, I can't find my phone" I whine tapping her. She's been sleep for a couple of hours cause she decided to stay up all night comparing diaper brands and wipe brands just to come to a conclusion to try all of them.

She moves her arm from my stomach and reaches under one of my pillows before handing me my phone. "Here" She mutters before putting her arm back and closing her eyes.

I see Amari's name across the screen and answer it. "Yes boo" I say grabbing the remote and turning on the tv.

"Tell me why I'm in the hospital" She says. "They got me on bed rest till this bad ass lil boy comes cause his heart rate acting funny" She adds. "Can you bring me some to eat later, my mom and sister up here but she gotta work later and Arya got a movie date" She says.

I pause my show. "Are you okay? And yeah, we can bring you something" I ask then say.

"I'm fine, a lil nauseous but that's it" She says. "How are you feeling?" She asks.

I sigh. "I'm ready to have my body back to myself, and to be able to sleep without somebody kicking me" I say. "I've been going to the gym the last few weeks with Ariel cause yo ass ain't wanna go with me" I add.

She laughs. "I hate the gym" She says.  "Ima just get lipo or some cause I can't" She adds.

I shake my head. "Whatever, you better call me as soon as my baby is born" I say cutting my eyes at her.

She sucks her teeth. "Bitch who else ima call?" She rhetorically asks. "Arya calling me, ima text you" She says.

I nod and she hangs up. "Baby I'm hungry" I say rubbing Ariel's back. She starts moving and I stop her. "I'm gonna DoorDash us some I just need you to get it" I add opening the app on my phone. 

She nods and as if it's any more room to, she pulls me closer to her. "I love you" She says kissing my stomach.

"Ion know if you talking to me or them" I say clicking Chick-Fil-A.

She points to me. "I didn't say yall" She says. "What you ordering?" She asks. 

"Chick-Fil-A" I answer. "I'm doing your food now" I say adding her usual meal to the cart. I add mine next and add a tip before placing the order.

I press play on my show and turn it down a bit so it doesn't distract Ariel.

Eventually my phone rings notifying me our food is here. "I heard it" Ariel mumbles.

She gets up and rubs her eyes as she leaves out the room. I'm actually tired of being in the bed. I get up and grab my robe, both of our phones, and cut the tv off before walking downstairs.

I sit on the couch and turn Ms. Pat on. "How you feeling?" She asks sitting the food on the table.

"For the most part I'm good, minus my feet swelling and having to pee, the pressure is a bit much sometimes but it's manageable" I say.

I start eating my nuggets and smile. "Happy?" She asks smiling. I nod and she laughs. "Good, I think the letters for the their room come in today" She says checking the date on her phone.
