BESOS BABIESSS

Imani's POV

"Does it look bigger?" I asked biting my lip.

"Imani, ask me again." Naomi said causing me to laugh.

I could tell she was getting tired of me but the thought of my baby girl growing inside of me was exciting. I'm in my second trimester and I'm starting to really show. Being that I did have a belly before I got pregnant it didn't feel real until now. It seems like the baby got way bigger over night.

"I'm sorry. I can't believe I've gotten this big." I said happily.

She smiled at me giving me a look and then shaking her head.

"You know, you're the only pregnant person I know who's happy about getting a big ole belly."

"This baby is kind of like my start over." I shrugged "I've always been the single, no responsibilities sister and I'm happy now that I can have the same joy that you have with your kids." I said.

"I do love them." She said.

"Yeah, plus this bump is so cute." I said rubbing my belly. 

My eyes began to tear up a little bit.  I'll be graduating soon, with a degree in Finance and a minor in math. I'm having my baby, and also being able to finally make real, legit money. As soon as I got happy, I got sad. King is not here and that hurts me to my core.  He hasn't called like he promised, and this past two weeks  have been hell without him.

"Oh no." My sister sighed and held me seeing that the once happy tears were turning into utterly sad and miserable tears.

"What's going on?" She asked concerned.

I didn't want to tell her about the whole Brandon situation. It's embarrassing, plus I don't need my sister stressing out about my relationship with my baby daddy.

"It's nothing." I sighed.

"Something, you crying over it baby girl." She said concerned.

"It's just, everything. I'm happy about the baby coming, and finishing up school but things with King aren't good at all." I said. "He's in Dubai, and has been for two weeks. I haven't heard from him since he left." I explained.

"What?" She asked getting upset.

"I know." I sighed.

"Why haven't you said something to me? You been in that big ass house by yourself?" She asked me

"No, I stayed at his parents house and because I didn't want to even think about this whole ordeal honestly."

"So he just got up and went to Dubai no explanation?"

"None." I said.

"So what are you thinking?" She asked.

"I don't know honestly. I know that once I have this baby, hell once I get close to my due date this can not happen." I explained.

"You're very right." She nodded.

"I don't know if I wanna be with him." I confessed. I had been thinking about it and as much as I didn't want to raise this little baby in separate homes it's seeming like the best thing to do. At least until her father gets his act together.

"Now I wouldn't say all that now."

"What do you mean?"

"I think that you should hold off on all these major decisions until after the baby comes." She said. "Just hear me out, I think that you're emotional right now and you're entitled to those emotions babe but, maybe seeing your little girl being born will change him."
