4-In-1 Mindless Behavior Short Stories

Chapter 4.7

In just three days, Rayan will be coming home. I haven't talked to him in two days but I know he hasn't forgotten. I have my friends over at my house with me. Even though my due date is in less than a week, the baby could come at any given moment.

"So are you excited? The baby is on his way." Nakia cheered happily.

"I'm so excited I can hardly wait. " I said.

"And I know you're happy Rayan will be here. " My other friend Toya said.

"That's the best part. At first, we thought he wouldn't be able to make it but he will. " I said rubbing my tummy. I've been doing that a lot lately.

Just then, I heard the doorbell ring.

"I'll get it. " Nakia said getting up.

"No, no it's okay. I'll get it. " I said lifting up which was nearly impossible. Nakia ran over to help me up and I made my way to the door.

I opened it and there were to men in uniforms standing at the door. I've seen this in way too many movies and read it in way too many stories to not know what was about to be said to me.

"Are you Mrs. Tiffany Lopez?" One of the me asked me. I nodded my head slowly already knowing what they were about to say.

My eyes began to water and my hands began to shake uncontrollably. I've been dreading this day from the time he left.

"I'm sorry to tell you but Lt. Rayan Lopez was shot and killed yesterday."

The words echoed in my head. I knew it! I fucking knew it! My mind was moving faster than anything.

"NOOOO!" I screamed. The dropping of tears causing my voice to shake. The guards walked in and rubbed my back as my friends all came running to the door.

"What's going on?" I heard one if then asked. But the sorrow I was feeling didn't help me figure out who said it.

Before I could answer, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. A pain so sharp, I nearly fell to the floor as I screamed in agony.

Was I going into labor?

"Ma'am are you okay?" The men asked me.

"NOOOO. " I half whined, half whimpered from the pain not only in my stomach, but in my heart.

"I think she's going into labor. We have to help her!" Somebody screamed.

But I wouldn't know who, for I have completely blacked out.

I woke up in the hospital. A familiar looking woman stood leaning over me, studying my every move. I fluttered my eyes open as my vision became clearly.

"Mommy?" I moaned.

"You're finally awake." My mom said calmly and softly rubbing my hair back.

"Finally?" I asked scrunching my eyebrows.

"Baby. You've been in a coma for three weeks."

My eyes shot opened and I shot up straight.

"Woah, take it easy!"My mom said trying to lay me back down.

"What do you mean I was in a coma? What happened? What's going on?" I asked.

My mom just looked at me and shook her head. I stared back at her, desperately wanting answers.

"What happened to me mom?"

"You went into shock when you found out that Rayan had been killed in war baby." My mom said rubbing my shoulder.

That's when it all hit me. I'm a widow. Then I looked down at my now small stomach which at one point on my life was as round as a basketball.

"The baby! My baby! Our baby!" I screamed.

"There is no baby. " My mom said obviously fighting back tears.

"What you mean? I was pregnant!" I screamed.

"Not only did Rayan die, but when you found out and went into shock, you were pregnant. You had a miscarriage."
