Two Weeks Later...

Today Has Been The Worst Day And The Day Hasn't Even Started Yet. For One, I've Been Having Horrible Morning Sickness And Heartburn. This Baby Is Definitely Gonna Have A Bunch Of Hair! Secondly, SaMiyah Starts Her First Day Of Daycare And I Can't Seem To Let Her Go. Lacey And Anthony Talked Me And Dex Into Enrolling Her In School With Morgan And We Did. Now...I Highly Regret It.

SaMiyah's First Day Of School Outfit

"Mommy Don't Cry. I'm A Big Girl." SaMiyah Said. I Wiped My Face And Nodded.

"I Know. I'm Just Gonna Miss You! You Haven't Been Away From Me Since You Were A Baby!" I Said. She Hugged Me And I Hugged Her Back Tight.

"Have A Good Day Okay? Me And Dex Will Be Here To Pick You Up At Three." I Said. She Nodded As She Hurried Inside.

"Hi...I'm Ms. Allen. I'm SaMiyah's Teacher." A Slim Woman Said. We Shook Hands As I Wiped My Face.

Regina Hall - Ms. Allen

"Sorry I'm Such A Mess. This Is A Big Step For Me." I Said.

"Oh It's Quite Alright. All First Time Mothers Go Through This Phase, But I'm Here To Assure You That You Have Nothing To Worry About. Your Daughter Is In Good Hands." She Said. For Some Odd Reason, That Made Me Feel A Lot Better About Leaving My Baby Girl.

"Thank You. That's Exactly What I Needed To Hear." I Said, Laughing Dryly. She Laughed As Well.

"Well Looks Like To Me You'll Be Going Through This Again In A Few Years." She Said, Eyeing My Stomach. I Nodded As I Rubbed My Stomach.

"Yeah I Know." I Said.

"What Are You Having?" She Asked.

"I'm Not Sure. We're Finding Out The Gender Today." I Said. She Smiled And Nodded.

"Well Good Luck To You And It Was Nice Meeting You." She Said.

"Likewise." I Said.

I Was In The Doctors Office, Laying On The Examining Table, Waiting On The Ultrasound Tech. Dex Was Sitting Beside Me, Scratching My Head, And Basically Putting Me To Sleep.

"Stop Babe. I'm Getting Sleepy." I Said.

"Aight. I Can Feel Your Tracks Anyways." He Said. I Covered My Mouth As I Laughed Quietly.

"Fuck You!" I Said. He Smirked As He Stood Up.

"Bend Over Then." He Said. Before I Could Respond, The Doctor Walked In And Dex Quickly Sat Down.

"Hello Ms. Clarke. How Are You?" She Said, Shaking My Hand.

"I'm Good." I Said.

"That's Great. So...You Are Officially Twenty Weeks And Today We Are Gonna Find Out The Baby's Gender." She Said.

"Yay." I Said, Clapping My Hands. I Don't Know Why I Keep Doing That, But Whatever. Let Me Celebrate The Revealing Gender Of My Unborn.

"Do You Know What You Want As Far As Gender?" She Asked.

"Yes We Want A Boy." I Said. She Smiled And Nodded.

"Okay...So Since This Is Your...Second Pregnancy...Have You Had Any Complications Or Concerned?" She Asked.

"Yeah...I Haven't Really Felt This Baby Move. I Mean...I Feel It Sometimes, But It Isn't As Active As My Daughter Was." I Said.

"Well That Is Normal Also. You Probably Have A Little Peaceful Baby In There." She Said.

"Not When The Baby Is Partially Made Up Of His DNA." I Said, Glaring At Dex. He Chuckled And Nodded His Head In Agreement.

"My Lil Dude Should Be In There Turnt Up." He Said. The Doctor Laughed As She Started Up The Ultrasound Machine.

"Okay Well Let's See What's Going On Inside Of Your Stomach And See If This It Is A Bouncing Baby Boy." She Said. I Raised My Shirt Up As She Squirted The Gel On My Stomach.

"Alright...Let's See." She Said. She Placed The Ultrasound Paton On My Stomach And Moved It Around.

"Okay There's Your Baby." She Beamed.

"Aw Shit Now." Dex Said. I Giggled As I Slapped His Head.

"Watch Your Language." I Said.

"My Bad, But Aye...Don't Put Your Hands On Me No More." He Said. I Rolled My Eyes And Put All My Focus Back On The Screen.

"Well...I Wouldn't Be In A Hurry To Paint The Room Blue. You're Having A Girl." She Said.

"Awww Yay!" I Said.

"Yay? Ain't No Damn Yay!" Dex Said.

"Shut Up! She's A Blessing Either Way And Guess What? She's Gonna Be A Daddy's Girl." I Said. He Smirked As He Wiped His Face.

"Yeah She Is." He Said. He Kissed My Cheek As The Doctor Continued Examining Me.

"Everything Seems To Be Normal And Your Baby Girl Is Growing Nice And Healthy." She Said. I Nodded As Dex Helped Me Off The Examining Table.

"Well See You Back Here In Four Weeks. Take Care." She Said. I Nodded As She Handed Us Our Ultrasound Pictures And We Left.

"Yo...When We Get Back Home, I'm Whooping Lacey's Ass." Dex Said As We Pulled Out Of The Parking Lot. I Laughed.

"Why?" I Asked.

"Because She Jinxed Us! She Should've Been A He Man!" He Said.

"Oh Wow...Really Dex? Shut Your Damn Face And Be Happy That Our Baby Is Healthy." I Said.

"I Am Happy, But I Really Wanted A Boy." He Huffed.

"I'm Sure Your Microwavable Thot Pocket Can Help You Out With A Son Then." I Said, Referring To That Random Broad From The Grocery Store. He Sucked In His Teeth As He Glared At Me.

"Don't Start No Shit Asia!" He Snapped.

"Yeah Okay!" I Said, Crossing My Arms.

"Ion Give A Fuck About You Being Mad!" Snapped.

"And I Don't Give A Fuck About You Not Giving A Fuck! You Know What? Just Shut Up Talking To Me!" I Snapped Back.

"Big Mad Or Little Mad?" He Asked.

"Fuck You!" I Said.

"Aight I Got You When We Get Home." He Smirked.

"Nigga Please! At The Rate You're Going You'll Be Lucky Enough To Even Taste This Again!" I Said.

"Yeah Okay. We'll See." He Said.

"I Guess We Will." I Said.
