Chapter 4
Jamal and I fixed everything that was going wrong, we even fixed up a room for Hev and Veh. They ended up meaning the world to us, even though they weren't here just yet. We were preparing for the baby showers for the both of them. We didn't care if people was going to talk crazy about his sister having one of the babies.
The babies shower will start in a few hours. Adriana was no where to be found, and we all heard that she was buying drugs. I don't care about what she does, but while pregnant with my child, she better not even thing about it.
Jamal planned the showers himself. I was proud to say that he was my husband, and that he truly did care about the kids. "Mommy, please come sit down, I got this." He looked at me, then just smiled as if I didn't believe him, while I didn't, but he knew I had faith in him. "Ok, ok, I'm going. Just one..." Before I could get the words out of my mouth, he was in my face, about to kiss me, "Mommy, what did I say? Sit your sexy ass down. I'm the one who's running this. You run everything else, but let me take care of this." I just stayed back in my chair, with a very convinced look on my face. "I believe you Daddy. I'll sit back and just admire your ways of getting business done."
He looked at me with a unsatisfied look on his face, but walked away as if he knew I was telling him the truth.
After he walked away from me, Adriana was walking into the doors. "Baby, your sisters here." I told him before he was able to walk away from me, "Where have you b..." She started to talk before he was even able to finish. "I've been at home. Hev has been making me sick. His driving me crazy. I'm praying that this few more months get here fast." She sat down right Nextel to me, "How's Veh? I see she's growing well." I just looked at her as if she was going crazy.
Jamal ran over to here she had sat down at, "Did you go to the doctor?" She just looked at him, "No. He was just..." Jamal had almost hit her, if it wasn't for my brother grabbing him up. "Jamal, what the fuck are you doing. Not only is she pregnant, but she's pregnant with your baby and my sisters baby. Calm your ass down." I just looked at my brother, and thanked him, only in spanish, so that no one else take tell what we were talking about. "Gracias hermano. No va a haber lastimado gravemente. (thank you brother. he won't have hurt her badly)" Mario just said back, "La bienvenida hermana. Tiene que aprender a controlar eso. No voy a dejar que cuidar si los bebés, actuando como un loco. (Your welcome sister. He needs to learn how to control that. I'm not going to let him take care if the babies, acting like a mad man.)"
Mario is my older brother, his loves me to dead. I cannot think that he would ever let Jamal hit a woman in front of him, but I never believed that he'd stand up to Jamal.
"Mi hermana, mi amo tú." He had took Jamal to the next room. "Mi amo tú hermano." Sorrily, they left the shower early. I looked Adriana, "Are you happy now? We're going to the hospital, I'll be damned if there's something wrong with my son." She looked at me, as if she was about to cry, "I can't go." Before she said one more thing, I got up. "Listen up here, that's MY son in there, if something happens to him, you won't have to worry about Jamal, you'll have to deal with me. Now get your ass up, we're going. I don't care if you like it or not." "What about the baby showers?" "They can't wait. My children come first. Get up, we're going." All she could say was, "Fine. I'm coming."
