Come Back to Reality

Chapter 75:

*-Crystal's POV-*

I'm in less pain now, but I'm still sore. Aubrey left 2 days ago. It's December and he's supposed to be done in February, but he has 1 week left before he comes back for his break for Christmas and New Years. The babies were born on December 14.

"Can I hold Baby Alli?"

This girl is BUGGING ME to name the smallest baby 'Alli'.

"Her name isn't gonna be Alli."

"Why not?

"Because that's an ugly name."

"Is my name ugly, too?"

"No, but you are."

India and Michael has been there for me. Whenever Alli's hungry, they handle it. When the babies need more diapers, they already bought some. I'm blessed to have them.

"Tiger, am I ugly?"

She called Tyga 'Tiger'.

"Naw, but Crystal is....AND those big headed, ugly ass babies. They look just like her."

Me:"Y'all aren't funny."

India came back into the room with mail.

India: It's here.

I put Raymond down and got the 6 envelopes from her. 3 is from BHM&TA (Beverly Hills Model & Talent Agency). It's checks from Alli's and my last shoot. I put those aside and looked at the other 3 envelopes from Santa Monica's Paternity Screening. I opened the first one I saw Baby A (The first born)

Dear Ms. Crystal A. Westbrooks,

In the case of your newborn baby girl, we've conducted 2 tests of the possible father(s). With Chris, we found that he is the father. With Aubrey, we found that he isn't the possible other.

Thanks for the business cooperation,

SMPS, Santa Monica's Paternity Screening.

Michael: What does it say?

"Say hey to ChristiAna Jazmeena Marea Brown."

Alli: Who's ChristiAna?

India: Check the other papers. Maybe there's a rare outcome that he isn't the dad of the others.

"Come back to reality. This isn't a fairy tale that ends with 2 dads. I know that it's rare, but my situation isn't like that. Chris is the dad, that's it."

"I'm just trying to hel--"

"Thanks, but no thanks. I don't want to be devastated even more."

"Just read it."

I picked up the second envelope. It's about Raymond.

"Are you happy now?! I TOLD you that it couldn't happen! Look now! Noooooo change!"

I got up and walked outside of the room door. Michael came out a minute later.

"What's so bad about Chris being the dad? He's not that bad."

"Because.......I don't want to part ways with Aubrey. I don't want to go over Chris's one day and do something that I'll regret. I don't want Aubrey to look at the kids everyday, if we're even still together, and wonder why did he stay with me. I wanted to stop all connections with Chris because I still love him. I love both of them."

He was speechless.

"Just.....be strong. If Aubrey loves you then he wouldn't leave."

This is why I LOVE Michael. He's sweet and shit.

"I kind of don't even wanna tell him."

"I would for you, but you have to learn to face it. I'll be there with you, though. Who are you telling first? Chris or Drake?"

"Chris?"

"Alright. Come on."

India came out of the room excited and shit.

"I TOLD YOU! LOOK!"

She was smiling hard and held out the envelope. I took it from her and stared at it.

"This can't happen. It's impossible. I need to retest."

"Crystal. It's real."

"Umm....then..can you go get a nurse so I can get their birth certificate finalized."

"Yeah. Alright."

I went back into the room to call Aubrey. He didn't answer, so I called Chris.

....

"You got the results?"

"Yeah. Your the fath--"

"I already know it."

"You have 2 kids. The first 2. The last one isn't yours."

"You lying."

"Look at the papers. It's official."

"I'm on my way."
