Opening my eyes, I notice that I was in the hospital.
"$hit." I hiss in pain, trying to sit up. Instantly, I look down at my stomach which was flatter than usual.
'No, no, no. Please don't tell me I didn't lose my baby.'
"Nah, you didn't." Vonte' says coming out of nowhere.
"Dang Devonte', you scared me."
"My bad." I knew something was bothering him because he wasn't acting like himself. He facial expression said it all.
"What's wrong...Where's my baby? Is something wrong with him?"
I start getting worried.
He opened his mouth to speak but was cut off due to a nurse coming in.
"Ms. Carter, how are you feeling?"
"I'm okay, just in a little of pain."
"Okay, we can give you something for pain. Did you want see the baby?" I nodded. "Okay, I'll go get him for you." She left out of the room and returned a few moments later, pushing a bassinet.
"Here's your healthy, beautiful baby boy. He was 6lbs and 11ozs."
She handed him to me.
"Hey mama's baby." I coo.
"Did you know what you wanted to name him?" The nurse ask.
"Yes, I do. Tristan Alexander Alsina."
"That's cute. I'll let you spend time with him before I give you any medicine because it'll make you drowsy."
I nod.
"Hey Vonte'?"
"Wassup?"
"Where's August?" I ask, cuddling Tristan.
"That's what I need to talk to you about..." He sighs.
"About?"
"De', ion know how to tell you this..." Vonte' starts.
I start getting worried again. "What?" He doesn't say anything. "Vonte' please tell me he's okay."
He shook his head.
"P-please don't tell me he's dead."
I felt my eyes start to water.
Vonte' shook his head, walking out the room.
