•29 - Bring My Baby Back!•

Three months have gone by and Tomica was growing bigger and bigger. She was anxious to have her baby and get her man back with her. Eric may have been with Aaliyah for now, but she was destined to prove to him that he fathered her child and then win her happy family back.

"So where you wanna go eat for prom night, babe?" Eric asked Aaliyah.

"Ummm, I was thinking we could either go to Red Lobster or-" she was cut off by Eric's phone ringing.

"Yeah?" Eric answered as he flipped the phone open and put it on speaker.

"Eric," Tomica said over the phone.

"What do you want, Tomica?" he said in an annoyed tone.

"It's time..."

"Time for what?!"

"THE BABY IS COMING!!"

Eric's eyes ballooned.

"Oh shit!!"

Eric looked at Aaliyah.

"It's okay, go ahead. I'll be fine."

Eric smiled and kissed Aaliyah with so much passion.

"I love you baby."

"I love you too."

"I'm on my way, Tomica!"

Eric ran out of Aaliyah's house and made his way to the hospital. On the way there, his whole future flashed before his eyes. He thought about the possibility of Tomica's child actually being his. Where would that put him and Aaliyah? He knew Tomica still had feelings for him, that was why she was trying so hard to kick Aaliyah out of the picture and ease her way back in. But Eric was over Tomica. She was trying way too hard to get him back. He was happily in love with Aaliyah. Aaliyah was everything he wanted in a woman and then some. She was different than Tomica and Kim put together. He felt like the two of them should give up, but he knew that wasn't gonna happen anytime soon.

Eric arrived at the hospital.

"Hey, I'm looking for Ms. Tomica Woods."

"Yes, she's in room 203."

"Aight, thanks."

Eric headed to room 203. When he walked in the room, he looked around at who was inside and then looked at Tomica.

"Tomica, what the fuck is this?" he raised an eyebrow.

He saw Marion sitting right beside Tomica's hospital bed.

"Tomica, what is this nigga doin' here?" Marion asked.

"I called him up here, Marion."

"So what, you tryna be funny or something, Tomica?" Eric questioned her.

"Eric, I promise I didn't know he was gonna be here."

"Yeah whatever, let me see the baby."

Tomica handed the baby over to Eric.

"Have you came up with a name?"

"His name is Taj."

Eric took a good look at the little newborn. The baby did have a few of Eric's features. So maybe there was a possibility that this baby was in fact his. But he still wanted to take a DNA just to be sure that little Taj was in fact his.

"So I goes to the hospital, right? And when I get there, I see this nigga Marion sitting right next to Tomica's bed," Eric explained to his brother Anthony.
