"Alright.. You sure you wanna sit in here and not in the living room?" Chres asked as he helped me onto the bed. "Yeah, I really wanna take a nap"

He nodded. "Alright.. I'll be out in the living room then" I nodded then laid back onto the bed. I sighed deeply closing my eyes trying to go to sleep. But I couldn't. Everything seems weird and different between Chres and I. I was in the hospital for a week and Chresanto hardly ever came to visit. When he picked me up, he didn't talk to me. Now we're at home and he acts like he doesn't want to be bothered with me. You would've thought loosing out baby would make him want to be closer to me, but no. I reached over grabbing my phone from the nightstand and started scrolling through my contacts. I needed someone to talk to.

The first person I seen was Bryson. He's been visiting me everyday in the hospital, unlike Chres. I clicked on his name and put the phone to my ear waiting for him to pick up.

"Hello?" He answered on the third ring. "Hey Bryson.. you busy?" I asked. "Hey Indya, and Not right now why wassup?"

"Nothing. I just need someone to talk to" I sighed. "Chresanto still acting funny huh?" I lightly chuckled. "Yeah.. I just don't understand why he's acting like this. I thought that loosing our baby would make him want to be closer to me but I guess I was wrong." I expressed.

"How does it make you feel?" He asked. "I don't know... It makes me feel as if this was all my fault" I confessed. "Indya you know its not your fault" Bryson said. I sat there as I felt tears beginning to burn the rim of my eyes.

"But Chres is making it seem like it is.. I feel like he thinks its my fault" I couldn't hold it anymore. I began to cry.

:Chresanto:

I stood by the door and listened to the conversation she was having with Bryson. Part of me was jealous that she decided to call and talk to him, but the other part of me was hurt. How could she think that? Of course I don't think its her fault. I then heard her sniffling. She's crying? I hate to hear or see her cry. I took this as the time to walk in and talk to her. I grabbed the door knob and twisted it, pushing the door in slowly. I looked over at the bed seeing her wiping her eyes with a tissue with her phone still against her ear.

"Hey" I mumbled. She looked up at me. "Hey Bryson.. I'll call you back" She said before placing her phone down. I scoffed and rolled my eyes then walked closer to her.

"You ok?" I asked taking a seat at the edge of the bed. She blew her nose nodding. "Yeah.. I'm fine" I sighed. "Indya please tell me whats wrong" I pleaded. I knew what was wrong I just wanted to hear it from her.

"I said its nothing" she mumbled. Irritation took over me. "So you can vent your problems to Bryson but not your own boyfriend?" I scoffed. She jolted back a bit with her face scrunched up.

"Is this what this is about? did you really come in here to see whats wrong with me? Or just to bash me about talking to Bryson" She snarled. "I came to see were you ok cause I heard you crying. But you wont even tell whats the god damn problem."

"I don't feel like talking right now" She said. "But I bet you feel like talking to Bryson-- Look Indya I already know the problem. I just asked you to see if you were gonna tell me" She looked at me not saying anything.

"How could you think that Indya? Why would I think its your fault that our baby is gone?" I asked. "I dont want to think that Chres. But the way you were acting this week makes me think that"

"And how was I acting?" I asked curiously. "You hardly came to visit me. When you picked me up today you didn't talk to me or ask how I was doing. And then when we get here you didn't talk to me either" I sighed cause this was true.

"I just wanted you to be there for me. to comfort me but you weren't Chres" she began to cry again. I moved closer to her bringing her close to my chest. "Please dont cry" I begged. She pushed me off of her.

"That's all you ever say.. 'please dont cry.. please dont cry'" She mocked. "What do you want me to say?" I asked. She rolled her eyes. "Something that is actually comforting. Try telling me its gonna be ok.. Or its not your fault. Or I'm sorry for the way I've been acting" She said.

"Im sorry for the way I've been acting Indya.. I really am-- Its just when the doctor said you lost the baby, I felt lost and hurt. I was so excited to see my baby girl, and then someone just took her away from me. That hit me hard. Looking at you just hurts me more knowing my baby isn't there in your stomach anymore. Its hurts knowing that she's gone forever" I put my head down trying to fight the tears that threatened to leave my eyes. I felt Indya wrap her arms around my head bring me close to her. I swung my arms around her waist.

"She's not gone Chres.. she's always here in our hearts forever" Indya whispered as she rocked us back and forth.
