"Babe! Kj, come here!" I called out to him. I heard him coming down the hallway in a hurry. "Yeah what's up ma?" He asked. "Look at this. These are letters for the both of us. I have two, you have one. Judging by the looks of this one here for me, and the one for you, i can tell who they're from." I said with a solemn expression. "Yeah me too. This is from Kinyanna." He stated. "Yeah and my other one is from A- "Amir. Yeah i know. I think it's an apology letter from the both of them." He said. As i started reading the letters, my head began to feel heavy and i felt dizzy, and nauseous. I remember hearing Kj calling my name, asking if i was ok, and him grabbing me. After that, everything went black.

After Layla passed out, i got her to the hospital as fast as i could. I called for an ambulance, but they took so long i had to think quick and get her in the car. It's been over an hour and i still haven't heard anything. I felt a hand on my shoulder and i looked up seeing Candice. "Hey bro, what happened ?" She asked. "Man i don't know Candice. She called me in the room to look at some letters we had gotten, and we both realized they were apology letters from Amir and Kinyanna. After she started reading hers from Amir, she started to look faint....started turning pale. I tried to hold her up but she just blacked out on me. I don't know what happened Candice but i pray my baybeh's ok." I said with so much worry in my voice. She sat her hand on top of mine before speaking. "She's going to be ok A'keem. Just keep praying and stop worrying. My bestie is a fighter and can take on the toughest battles. She's going to be ok." She said laying her head on my shoulder. Over the last couple of month, Candice and I have grown really close. She's like a little sister to me, and has been there for more ways than i can count when it comes to Layla and I. "Family of Layla King." The doctor said as he turned the corner. We both stood up. "That's is Doc. What's going on? Is she ok?" I asked. "She's doing fine. She was just a bit dehydrated. She's awake now if you two would like to go see her. We both nod and follow him down the hallway. When we reach the room, we thank him and go in. My baybeh is wide awake watching tv. My lil soldier. "Baybeh, you Ok? How're you feeling? Why aren't you getting any rest?" I rushed out with questions. "Yes im Ok Babe. I feel a lot better now, but they're makjng me stay overnight." She said lowly. "Bestie!! My baby!" She yelled as Candice came and sat next to her, laying her head on her lap. "I'm so glad you're ok Lay. You scared the shit out of me! Whats is wrong with you? Why are you dehydrated sis?" Candice asked. "Well uh...i kinda uh....i kinda have something to tell the both of you." She said with a worried look on her face. "What's up mama? Talk to me....is it us?" I asked, kind of afraid to hear the news. "No baby. Well it is, but it isn't." She said dropping her head. Me and Candice looked at each other with confusion, then back at her as if to tell her to continue. "Come on with all the stallin' ma. Speak up." I said, growing agitated. "Yeah sis, you're starting to scare me again. You know you can talk to us about anything so don't be afraid to tell us what's going on with you." Candice spoke up. "Well, you guys....I'm uh....I'm...i uh- "Damn bae! Speak up! Shit starting to become irritating with you actin like this." I said slightly shouting. She looked at me with sadness in her eyes before speaking. "I'm pregnant....6 weeks to be exact." She spoke. "Say what na?" I asked still shocked. "I'm pregnant Kay. I'm sorry, i know you don't want kids right now and i- "Baybeh ya can't be serious? You don't have to apologize for that ma. That's OUR baybeh and I'm gone be there for you and my baby no matter what." I said smiling. "So you're not mad?" She asked. "Nah of course not. You've just made me the happiest man on earth right na. I know you ain't nothing like Kinyanna so i have no doubt in my mind about the baybeh being mine. I know you're loyal to me and that you love me." I said kissing her lips then her cheek. "Thank God. I was so scared at first but now that i know i have you by my side, i know everything will be just fine." She spoke with a smile. "Congratulations bestie! I'm so happy for ya'll, and you know I'm here for you three as well." Candice said. "Aww thanks sis. I love y'all so much man." She spoke. "We love you to baybeh, with ya scary ass." She laughed at me. Man i love this girl. I'm finally having my own family, and i can't wait for it. I'm gone make her my wife soon too, but right now, I'm just taking it one day at a time, trying to heal the wounds of a broken heart....caused by broken love.
