Falling From The Floor

A Kick

TONY's POINT OF VIEW

"So.....can I-...." I asked her. "Yeah, baby." She said as she pulled the covers back and moved over a little. I got in bed and pulled the covers up. I then turned on my side and put my hand on her belly. "I missed sleeping in my bed." I told her. She laughed a small laugh. I looked at her. "Why are you looking at me like that?" She asked me. "I love your laugh and your smile. It's beautiful and it makes me smile." I explained to her. "Awww, that's sweet, Tony." She said. "Ciyle...." I said as I kissed her stomach. "Goodnight, Cheryl." I said as I then leaned up to kiss her. She kissed me back. Cheryl then broke the kiss. "Baby, put your hand right here." She said in a hurry and guided my hand to a specific spot on her stomach. I waited to see what she was talking about. My mouth then dropped. "Ayee, little man is kicking for Daddy." I said as I smiled. "He kicks more than Cai did. I feel like he's gonna be a handful." She said. "He might. I know that I was...." I said as I kept my hand in place. "Baby, there's something that I need to tell you." Cheryl said. Her entire facial expression changed. "You good, baby?" I asked her. She looked down and put her hand on her belly. "You can tell me anything." I said. "I mean, I didn't want to make you feel as if I didn't want you anymore or anything like that. I guess I just went through a phase where I didn't want to be touched." She said. I took a deep breath. "Baby, I don't care about that. My overall goal is to make you comfortable during this pregnancy." I said as I held her close to me. "I know that I'm kinda hard to deal with during this time but you're dealing. And.....I thank you for that." She said as she looked at me. "Trust me....I can handle you. This is my second round doing this. I wanna make it a third and forth round too in the future." I said as I smiled. "Uhmmm, I'm not having anymore children. This is the last one." She said as she laughed a small laugh. "We'll see about that." I said as I licked my lips. "Don't-.....don't do that." She said. "Do what?" I asked her as I licked my lips again. "You know what you did. Don't play with me, Tony." She said as she laughed. "Alright, baby. I'll stop." I said as I kissed her again and then laid down. Cheryl laid down too. I put my arm around her. "So, did you enjoy that Vaseline?" She asked me. "I don't wanna talk about that. I didn't even use it. You're wrong for that." I said as I laughed. "I mean.....I thought that you would need it." She said. "Babe......just go to sleep." I said. She laughed a cute laugh again.

SKIP SKIP- MONDAY MORNING
              CHERYL's POINT OF VIEW
       TALKING TO CAI IN CAI's ROOM

"Baby girl.....are you sure?" I asked her as I continued to feel her forehead. "Yes, I don't feel good." She said as she started to cry. "Baby, don't cry. Okay, you can stay home today with Mommy. Would you like that?" I asked her. She nodded her head and wiped her tears. "Okay, I'm gonna go tell Daddy that you won't be going to school today." I said as I stood up from her bed. She then put her hand on her head. I walked into our room and found Tony getting dressed. "Baby, Caiya isn't going to school today." I said as I looked at him. "Why? Is she okay?" He asked me. "She has a headache and I think that she's coming down with a cold." I said. "Uhmm, do we have any children's cold medicine?" He asked me. "Uh, let me go look." I said as I went to go check.

"No, we are completely out. I'm gonna go and get some." I said. "No baby, im about to leave anyways. Let me go and get it- then, I can go straight to work." He said. "Okay." I said. "Let me go talk to her." He said. I followed behind him. "What's wrong with Daddy's baby girl?" He asked her. "I don't feel good, Daddy." She said. Tony then felt her forehead. "Yeah babe. She does have a headache. Let me go ahead and get the medicine so that this can pass." He said. He then leaned down and gave Caiya a kiss on the forehead. Tony walked over towards me. "Okay, So- I'll get that and-..." Tony said but Cai cut him off by saying something. "Daddyyy, I don't want you to go." She said as she started crying. "Baby girl, Daddy has to go to work. He'll be back during lunch time." I said as I looked over towards her. Caiya continued to cry. "Caiya. Daddy can't stay home today. Like Mommy said, I'll be back to hang out with the both of my girls today during lunch." Tony explained to her. I watched Tony as he talked to her. Cai was still crying. "Baby, you need to stop crying. You're gonna make your headache worse. Come on, baby girl." I said as I started to feel even bad about this situation. "Cai, come on." Tony said as he wiped her face. "Baby, maybe I should take her to the doctors? She only cries when something is really hurting her." I mentioned as I started to look sad and worried. Tony looked over towards me. Cai was still crying. "Okay, I'm gonna tell them that I can't come today. Uhmm, can you get her dressed while I call, babe?" He asked me. "Okay." I said as I started to look for some clothes for Cai to wear. Tony stepped out of the room to make the call because Cai was still crying. "Baby, stop crying for Mommy, Okay?" I said as I helped her out of bed. She stopped crying and kept sniffling. "We are gonna go to the doctor and they will help make you feel better." I said as I smiled at her and helped her change into the other clothes that I picked out. "Okay, baby girl. Daddy isn't going to work today." Tony said as he came back into Caiya's room. Cai didn't say anything. Instead she was silent. Tony looked at me. I looked at him as I finished helping Cai. "Okay, babe- you can go and get dressed. I'll put Cai in the car and stuff." Tony said as he picked Cai up. "Tony, she's 6...." I said. "Still my baby girl. Plus, she doesn't feel good. So, I'm carrying her." He said. "You know on a regular day she wouldn't want that." I said as I laughed. "I know." Tony said as he laughed along. "I'm a big girl." Tony said as he mocked Cai. "Stop it." I said. I then went to go and get dressed.
