*-Crystal's POV-*
"Here are the papers if you want to go ahead and fill them out."
We were at a fast food restaurant with Riley.
"Yeah. I'll fill them out right now."
*After awhile of filling out*
"Is this your daughter?"
"Yeah. Alliyah."
"Hey. My name's Alliyah!"
"She could model, too. You two gave GREAT potential."
"Thanks, but I have to talk it over with her dad."
Alli: What's modeling?
"Remember the people in magazines? They're models."
"I WANNA MODEL!"
"I wanna sign her up now, then if her dad doesn't want her to, then I'll tell you."
"This is a contract. If you sign it, then it can't be broken for another 2 years."
"Mine is a year, too?"
"No. 7 years."
"Well, I have a problem. I'm 3 months pregnant with twins."
Alliyah mouth dropped open. "Twins?"
"Yeah."
Riley: There are catalogs for expecting moms. It won't be a problem at all.
"Alright. I'm going to finish this and take Alliyah's contract home to think about. Is that okay?"
"Yeah. It's fine."
......
We were on our way home. I called my obstetrician to tell him the news. I have an appointment in 3 days.
*Ring, Ring*
I looked at my phone and saw Aubrey calling.
"Alli. Answer my phone, but wipe your hands off, first."
We grabbed a burger, fries, and a shake at the restaurant that we just left.
"Hello?"
*-Alliyah's POV-*
"Hey, Alliyah."
"Hey, Uncle Aubrey! Where are you?"
"At the airport. Where have you been?"
"We went to see this man."
"What man?"
"I don't know his name, but he's nice. He called me pretty."
"Let me talk to Crystal."
"Momma. Uncle Aubrey wants to talk to you."
She got the phone and started yelling.
Momma: Do you know that you sound so DUMB right now?! Why would I do that?........But I love and respect y'all TOO much to be THAT damn dirty!
She hung up.
"Mami, you didn't say 'Bye.'"
"I don't feel good right now, baby."
-5 mins. later-
"Alliyah?"
"Ma'am?"
"If I ever fall down and don't answer you when you call my name, I need you to get my phone and call India. If India doesn't answer, call 911 and tell them where we are."
"Why would you fall down? Will you be sleeping?"
"Yeah. Sometimes, my eyes would be opened and sometimes, they would he closed."
"Are you sleepy right now?"
"A little bit. I don't feel good."
"I'm gonna take care of you when we get home. Dr. Alliyah Sade Graham."
"Okay, baby."
*-Crystal's POV-*
My biggest fear is fainting while driving or taking care of Alli. I pulled over to get my prescription filled and went home.
......
"I'm going in the shower right now."
"Can I go with you?"
"Yeah. Come on."
We washed our hair together as we took our shower.
"Where do you want to sleep, Dr. Graham?"
"Innnn.......MY ROOM!"
We ate a snack and I took my pill.
"Momma. The sun is still out! It's not time to sleep."
"Get my phone in case it rings. I'm going to sleep."
"Okay."
We got in her QUEEN SIZED bed and I dozed straight off.
