Through Thick and Thin

Chapter 30

Nancy Pov

I went into his room and just sat on the bed crying. I looked out the window and saw the rain falling heavy , and the trees blowing hard as hell.

I felt a twist in my stomach and let out a scream.

" Baby what's wrong !?" Nate said running in the room

" My .. My stomach , the baby. " I stuttered.

He carried me to the car and sped to the hospital.

We pulled up and immediately got a doctor. They strapped me up and stuck needles in me. I held tightly to Nate's hand and said a small prayer in my head.

After about five minutes of calmly stressing the doctor came in with tests.

" Ma'am , you almost had a miscarriage. Your stress and blood pressure is shooting through the roof. You should take it easy for a while. And we need to have a look at your neck. " he said looking at Nate.

Nate rolled his eyes and held my hands.

They did all the tests and let me leave. We got in the car and I just stared out the window.

" Nancy , I'm sorry. " he said looking over at me while driving.

I looked over at him , why is he apologizing.

" For what Nate.. " I said laying back on the window.

" For letting that happen to you ,I should've been there. And for even introducing you to them. " I could tell he was getting angry by the was he gripped the steering wheel and sped.

" It's , it's fine Nate. Just slow down. " I said trying to reason with him.

He loosened his grip and looked me in my eyes then back at the road.

We pulled into a burger king and went inside. I kept my head down because of the scars on my neck when I heard the familiar voice behind the counter. We stepped up to the counter and I took a look at her and my eyes widened.

" Nancy ? " she said softly.

" Mom.... " I said trying to figure her out. She's hard to read.

" Hi Nate. " she said gently smiling at Nate.

" Hi , Ms. Jones. " he said being sincere.

" Call me Marilynn. "

I never knew my moms first name. Which kinda makes sense now , her name is Marilyn , and she named her oldest Monroe. Marilyn Monroe was a whore who had a job , and you get it ? Kay. Back to the story.

She gave us her number and we left with out ordering. I didn't feel like eating after seeing her , she has me SO fucked up in all kinds of ways. She fucking nearly abandons me as a teen and think she can rekindle our family bond like the fucking Brady bunch. Fuck her. And if I see that nigga that's my father he's got it in for him.

We got in the car and I turned on my Pandora.

Hello from the other side ,

I must've called a thousand times ,

To tell you.

I'm sorry , for everything that I've done.

But when I called , you never.

Seemed to be home.

Hello from the out siiiide.

At least I can say that I tried.

To tell you I'm sorry.

For breaking your heart.

It don't matter. It clearly. Doesn't tear you apart.

We pulled up to the house and I got out of the car without waiting for him. I went to the front door and waited for him to open it.

I went inside after he did and sat on the couch , ignoring anything anyone has to say. I took her phone number out of my pocket and ripped it to shreds.

" FUCK. " I cried. All of these years she hasn't done shit for me. I had to grow up by my fucking self. I had to depend on my siblings , because she was a junkie. I had to get a job at the age of fucking 13. Pay the damn bills , because she couldn't. FOUND HER A FUCKING JOB , because she was too doped up to even apply. She's a terrible fucking parent , fuck her and the nigga she laid down with to create me.

I got up from the couch and threw everything in fucking sight. I felt Nate grab at my arms and held them above me.

" Nancy STOP. " he yelled.

I just sat there and cried. There's not shit I can do about the past. But it's affected me a lot. I can't raise my baby like that. HELL NO.

He finally let my arms go and hugged me. I cried in his arms finally after this whole damn time that this man was perfect for me. He'd been there through all of my troubles , all of my problems , listened to all of my stories , and cared for me like no one else.

" I love you Nathaniel Bryant Lewis. " I kissed him.

" I love you too , Nancy Za'Rae Jones. " he kissed my forehead and we slept the rest of the night.
