Janae
"Come on Jay, you have a doctors appointment today and you don't want to have Dave and the doctor waiting"
My mother spoke to me through my locked door. It was officially July, I was a week shy from being 5 months. My belly had grown a lot since the last time.
Last time I had seen or even hung out with Dave was for the art gallery. That was early June, when he decided we needed a break.
I cried everyday for a reason, for no reason, for Dave, for Easton or for myself. We had gone a day or two not talking but not a month. If it wasn't about a doctor visit or how Easton was doing in my belly, I never heard from him.
I thought about giving him everything he ever got me. So I wouldn't have to be reminded of him. But I didn't want to add more fuel to the fire.
"Jay?" My mother knocked again.
"I'm coming" I wiped my eyes and got up from my bed.

"What's up?" Dave smiled at me as he rubbed my belly.
We stood by the front desk, as I wrote my name down.
"Nothing much, hungry" I laughed.
"You didn't eat?" He asked.
"I did but that was an hour ago" I shrugged.
"Oh you're appetite changing, eat some fruits when you feel like that" he kept rubbing my belly.
"Yeah, I know. So I won't gain unnecessary weight" I shrugged.
"True, true" he nodded his head.
"How are you ?" I asked genuinely concerned.
"I'm good, might come out this cast sooner than I think, I mean for a different one but that's progress."
"Oh that's great ...how's Kaiya?"
"Good, currently in Puerto Rico with Mia"
"That's nice"
"Yeah ..."
Our conversations had become so basic between us, me not knowing what to say, him not knowing what to say to me. I wanted my boyfriend back. But I was sure I had fucked that up, break or no break.
"Miss Santos" the nurse called me, we both stood up.
"So I bet Daddy is happy it's a boy" the nurse looked over to Dave.
He smirked and nodded his head yes.
"Too excited, about to get us matching gear soon" he laughed.
"Do you have a name?"
"Easton" Dave spoke up.
"Aww that is really nice"
"Thank you, she picked it out" he pointed towards me.
"You can sit on the bed mama, pull down your pants please" the nurse spoke to me.
