Come Back to Reality

Chapter 69:

Crystal's POV

Chris stayed all night with me. We were waiting and FINALLY, the doctor came back.

"Good news. Both of the babies are fine."

Chris looked at me and I was just shocked.

"What do you mean 'both'?"

"You're pregnant with twins. You didn't know?"

"N-N-no. I-I-I I had no idea."

"You might want to consult your obstetrician about it, then. You have a prescription for the blood pressure."

"Is this a lifelong thing? Or is it just for when I'm pregnant?"

"For the pregnancy, we think."

"Ok."

"You can sign out whenever. Yoga can help with pregnancy and the blood pressure."

"Alright. Thanks."

He left and I was getting my things together when Aubrey walked in.

Oh shit.

Aubrey: Why is he here?

Chris: Because she called me.

"*quietly*Can you guys just stop?"

Aubrey: Did you really call this nigga?

Chris: How else would I know?

Aubrey: Can you just shut the fuck up?!

Chris: Nigga, nah. I won't do SHIT for you.

Aubrey: Crystal!

I was starting to get a little light headed.

"Y'all! Can you stop?!"

Aubrey: I'm done with your lying and cheating! I'm taking Alli away from you!

"No, no, no, no, NO. Please!"

Chris: Chill out, Crystal.

Aubrey walked out and my eyes were crying a river.

I slipped on some pants and ran after him.

"Please, Aubrey. Don't do it. No one else was here for me."

"Well you should've came on the road. I'm gone."

I yanked his arm my way and he stepped up FAST to me. He was towering 6.5 inches over me. I was still crying.

"Little bitch."

He turned around and kept walking away.

"AUBREY! THERE ARE TWINS INSIDE OF ME! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO! I'm scared! I'm CONFUSED! I just needed someone with me!!"

He kept walking.

"DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN AUTUMN WAS PREGNANT?! HOW MISERABLE AND HORRIBLE SHE FELT?! HOW ALONE SHE WAS WHEN LIAM (Alliyah's dad) DIED?! IT'S LIKE US! You're GONE and I'm alone!"

When he heard his sister name, he froze in his tracks.

We had A LOT of attention. People everywhere were looking our way.

I went up to him and hugged his back.

"Alli is the ONLY person I look forward to. The one who I know who's always gonna be there for me. Please. I'll stop. I PROMISE I will. I don't break my promises. Just please. Don't take Alli from me. Don't leave me."

"Get your stuff."

It was flabbergasting to hear a serene voice right now.

I went back into the room and got my stuff.
