Chris POV

Its been two long months since the paternity mess came out and man I have been doing everything I can to make sure Bre is happy and at the same time making sure I'm fulfilling my duties as a father. Bre still doesn't know, and every time I try to tell her, I can't.

Asia has been on my head here lately about spending time with Nyla and I can't seem to find the balance so I'm sure Bre is starting to assume some shady shit is going on, but I can't bring myself to tell her. I'll tell her eventually just not yet.

"CHRIS!"
I jumped at the sound of Asia's voice that had become so annoying to me in such a short amount of time.

I was currently sitting in her driveway waiting to pick up Nyla but I had fell deep into my thoughts.

"Chris!"

I looked up to see her struggling to carry Nyla's carseat and bags to the car. Call me what you want, but for those brief moments of her struggling gave me nothing but satisfaction.

"My bad" I said before grabbing the carseat from her, I peered in to see my baby girl which made me smile hard.

After loading the car and I made plans with Asia to drop Nyla off later.

We rode off towards the studio were I was finishing up my album.

My phone buzzed in my pocket with an incoming call from Bre.

"Wassup baby" I spoke into the phone

"Baby meet me at Childrens" she spoke shakily into the phone.

I sat up from the couch and my heart instantly dropped.

"Wh-why, whats going on?" I stuttered rubbing my free hand over my face.

"Its Cre, he collapsed at school today, they think he had a severe asthma attack" she struggled to say.

"I'm on my way" I said quickly before hearing Nyla whine from her car seat.

After hanging up with Bre I immediately called Asia, but it just kept going to voicemail.

I forgot she was at work and her job didn't let them keep their phones on them.

I tried calling my mama, but she shot me a text saying she was at the hospital with Bre.

After an hour of frantically calling everyone I knew to try and keep Nyla I just sighed in frustration.

"Fuck" I said making Nyla jump then start crying. After consoling her, I got in the car and headed towards the hospital. I don't know what I was thinking, but there was no way I was going to stay away knowing my son was sick.

I arrived at the hospital and quickly got Nyla and her diaper bag before heading inside.

I looked for Bre, but only saw my mom.

"Mama" I said after reaching her.

"Hey baby" she said then slowly looked up from her phone. When her eyes landed on Nyla her draw instantly dropped.

"I know mama, I know, where's Bre?" I asked already knowing what she was thinking.

" She went to talk to the Doctor over there." She said pointing to the nurses station, Bre hadn't even noticed I was there because her back was turned to us.

"Hold her real quick for me, imma go see what's up." Before she could reply I had placed Nyla in her arms and placed the bag in the chair beside them.

I quickly turned and headed for Bre just as they were finishing their conversation.

"Hey baby, whats going on?" I questioned soon as I reached her.

She sniffed and wiped the tears that were about to fall. I felt like I was about to throw up in that moment.

She smiled weakly and said, "he's okay, he's conscious and receiving oxygen right now."

I felt relieved and let out a shaky breathe.

"When can we see him?" I asked.

"Not for a couple of hours, I need to go get Arielle" she said wrapping her arms around my torso.

"Oh yeah, it is close to time, I can get her if you want." I offered kissing her forehead.

"Its okay, I'll have to explain what's going on with her "Big Brudder"" she said mimicking Elle's voice.

"You right, you know she's dramatic." I said as we rounded the corner to the waiting room.

I had forgotten all about Nyla being here, so when Bre looked up to see my moms holding her, her eyebrows wrinkled in confusion.

"Who's baby is that?" She questioned walking closer to have a better look at her.

"Baby." I said trying to grab her only to receive a deadly look from her and my mom in return.

I watched as Bre stepped closer to get a better look at Nyla, and it was as if a light bulb went off she realized she was my baby.

"Baby, I can explain" I pleaded trying to grab at her again only for her to slap my hands away.

"Explain, explain? Really Chris, after all we've been through." She said raising her voice as tears built up in her eyes.

"Baby I'm sorry." I exclaimed, I could hear my heartbeat and my head was starting to hurt.

"No, fuck you Chris!" She screamed making everyone in the lobby look over at us.

"Baby, please you being loud. People are looking at us." I pleaded

" I don't give a damn, fuck them and you!" She continued to scream louder.

"Brielle, baby not here." My mom said as she noticed a nurse calling security over.

Bre noticed, and wiped the tears that had fell aggressively off her face.

"Let me go get my daughter." She said in a more calmed tone and dug in her purse for her keys.

"Baby, you don't need to dri-"

"Shut up Chris." She said harshly before turning and leaving out.

I glanced at my mom and she shook her no knowing what I was going to do.

I couldn't help the impulse that came over me as I ran out the hospital after Bre.

"Bre baby, please" I said jogging up to her.

"Get the hell away from me" she said through clenched teeth.

"No baby please just stop." I said grabbing her arm. It was like that same switch went off again and before I knew it she was hitting and kicking me.

I just let her because I knew she was hurt and I couldn't do anything about it, so I took it.

After a few minutes I guess she had tired herself out. She fixed her scrub top as she breathed heavily trying to calm herself down.

"I'm done, I don't want to see you Chris. I'm getting Elle and coming back, you better not be here or I swear to you. I will shoot you right in the fucking head. Try me" She said coldly.

Before I could say anything she walked off to her car, and I didn't follow this time. It felt like I was nailed to the ground and my mouth had gotten dry. I felt like I was going to pass out, but all I could do was stand there.

Brielle was actually done with me, and I knew she meant every word. That's what broke my heart the most.
