Me: *turns around* Jamal *starts to tear up*
Jamal: *runs over to me* Baby what's wrong?
Me: *grabs his hands & rub them against my belly*
Jamal: *looks at me confused* What are you trying to tell me Melanie?
Me: *puts head down & starts crying* Jamal I'm 3 months pregnant...
Jamal: *lifts head* Baby how come you haven't been told me this?!
Me: I was scared you were gonna leave me just like my father did.
Jamal: Baby I'm not going anywhere!
Me: You promise?
Jamal: I promise! I helped make this baby, so I'm gonna help take care of it! We can be a family, something I've never had before.
*starts kissing*
*hears knock on the door & in comes Naomi*
Naomi: So I'm guessing she told you?
Jamal: Yeah, when did you find out?
Naomi: Today just a little bit before you.
Me: We can have this little family reunion later.
Naomi: Enough of this talking! How are you going to tell your ma?
Me: I don't know the answer to that question just yet.
*hears the door open*
Me: Who is that? It can't be my ma, it's only four o'clock!
Ma: *shuts door* Melanie I'm home! *looks at all of us* What's going on?
Naomi: I guess we're about to find out the answer to your question right about now...
