I rocked Keenan as he slightly coughed . It seem as though he was getting worse than better. "Baby I'm starting to worry now." I said , looking up at King. He laid over the bed , evidently tired .

We've been taking turns going to sleep while the other watched him. Him being sick made it even harder and provided us with less sleep . King sighed , rubbing his hands down his face. I rubbed along Kee's collarbone as it seemed a bit puffy , swollen even.

"King..did you see this?" I asked as I trailed down his little arms. King sat up , leaning over as I ran my hand over the small bruises.

"What happened?" I asked , he shrugged looking it.

" I don't know . It's my first time seeing it."

"Do you think Kassidy did it?" I asked , poking my jaw with my tongue . He shook his head again.

"Nah, she wouldn't do that."

"And how do you know?"

"Because I know my child." He said sternly , giving me a straight look. I looked down at Keenan as he yawned .

"Well it has to be something." I said , looking back up at him .

"Okay listen , the doctor appointment is in like two hours. We'll have them check him out but quit stressing , it may not be nothing serious."

"My mother instincts tells me otherwise." I mumbled , wrapping the blanket tighter around pea.

"Well my father instincts that I've had for almost seven years says it's gonna be okay. Now let me get him and you go on and start getting ready because you know you take forever and 3 days." He joked , picking up Kee out my lap.

I playfully rolled my eyes as he grabbed one of my hands , helping me up then smacking my butt . "4 more weeks and counting!" He said as I went into the bathroom , shutting the door .

I guess King was right because I was done with shower and getting dressed in about an hour and 15 minutes . I walked out the bathroom , through our bedroom and into the living room . I saw King and Kassidy on the couch as Dora the Explorer was on.

King had Kee laying on his stomach , sitting up so he could watch too. He was rustling around, a bit restless. "King you need to hold his head up."

"I'm holding it."

"You're hurting him King." I said , taking him from off his stomach . His face churned as he started crying .

"See , he was fine." King claimed , sucking his teeth . Kassidy looked up at me .

"What's wrong with Keenan?"

"I'm not sure , maybe he's just hungry." I tried to answer her and calm Kee .

"Do he want some chicken nuggets?"
