It had been two months since we buried Mir, and it still felt unrealistic. It was crazy because none of us besides G and T got a chance to see him before that night. So much had been going on since that situation, but everything still felt like it was moving in slow motion.
It was like everyone's lives were put on hold, but not for much longer since my baby girl would be here any day now. I was just a few days away from being 38 weeks pregnant and i was big as house. I was so uncomfortable, and could barely fit anything, not to mention the excessive swelling in my legs.
I just wanted her to get here already, i couldn't wait to hold her and kiss her little face. About two weeks ago, we went to get the 3d ultrasound and so far she looked just like G. Like I mean it was so a little scary how much she looked like him from an ultrasound.
Over the last month or so, we'd be going back and forth about names. Gionni wanted me to name her Milani, but i felt like it was too close to my name. He came up with a few other names, that were fine but we both ended up agreeing one that i thought was super cute. We were naming our baby girl, Kairi Chanel Jordan. We chose Kairi because that was Mir's middle name, just spelled differently, and Chanel of course because it was my middle name.
Today was the day we were finally moving, to our new house in NY, and it was almost bittersweet. Don't get me wrong the house G and I picked out was beautiful, but so was this one, that i was already comfortable in. Everything was set up for us once we get there, i had already had a personal doctor there and everything, so there was really nothing to worry about.
I walked into the bathroom, carrying a box that i was packing the towel and wash cloths in. Even carry this box from on room to the next had me out of breathe, which was sad.
"Lani" i heard G yell, from what sounded like the front door.
I quickly put the box down, since he told me to have a seat and not to touch another box. I walked out the bathroom, meeting him in the bedroom.
"What you was just doin" he asked, looking through some mail.
"Nothing, just was looking around to see if anything else needed to be packed"
"You don't listen" he said.
I chuckled, "I was carrying anything, just looking"
"Mhm, where Lay?" he asked.
"She went with Chy and Su Su, to get ice cream.. they should be back any second" I said, sitting on the end of the bed. "Rell gets out at 12 today right?" i asked.
"Yeah, he talking bout he wanna get a haircut before we leave" he said laughing.
I chuckled, "What he think its no barbers in NY"
'I guess not, so imma go pick him up in a minute, and drop him off at the barbershop.. then we hitting the road" he said. Since we waited so long to move after Mir's death, i was now too far along in my pregnancy to fly, so we had to drive to NY, which was a 12 hour drive.
