Her Beef

Chapter 4

I woke up in the hospital all alone feeling super weak. I didn't even know why I was here. Aubrey walked in looking tired and sad. "Wus wrong babe why am I in the hospital?" I asked him feeling exhausted. When I tried to sit up higher in the bed I had the worst pain ever and that's when it hit me. "Omg the baby what happened to her?" I said with tears coming down my my face scared of what his answer might be. Aubrey pulled a chair up to the bed to take a seat. He took a deep breathe and looked at me with the saddest eyes. He cleared his throat first before he spoke and he had a look on his face like he was trying to pick the right words to say. " The baby was in distress because all of the stress and fighting with Dawn so you started going into early labor. They had to take the baby early she is in ICU and they are not sure if she is going to make it." He said with tears running down his face. I didn't know what to say or feel at that moment so I just went numb. I was confused and sad. I couldn't believe what he was saying. I wanted to see my little girl. I want to touch her and kiss her. I pushed the button for the nurse to come and I wanted her to take me to see my baby now. I was in pain but I needed to see her.

     The nurse came in and must've read my mind because she helped me out of the bed and put me in a wheel chair. We were going to see my little girl. When we got there she was so small and was hooked up to all kinds of machines. I just started crying softly. She was so cute and she looked just like Aubrey. She had a head full of hair and I just felt my heart breaking for her. I prayed and asked God to take me instead of her. Aubrey was right there next to me with tears rolling down his face as well. " What can we do for her?" I asked the nurse. "Pray honey that she gets the strength she needs to make it." She said. I kissed my two fingers and put it to the glass and Aubrey did the same.

     The nurse wheeled me back to my room and all I could do was lay in that bed and pray. God please don't take my little angel. I know I didn't want to be a mother at first but I would do anything if you just let her live.
