"Damn, what the fuck." Shawn mumbled while studying the directions again. He was currently trying to assemble the baby bed for his niece but it was way difficult than he thought it would be.
"Man I need a break. This shit is confusing." Dominic groaned while standing up. He didn't realize that a baby bed had a lot of pieces to it.
"Don't quit now. We're almost done!" Ava laughed while snatching the paper from Shawn's hand.
"Y'all got this. I'll be in the kitchen." Shawn told them before leaving the room with Dominic following behind.
"Damn Shawn, you just ate!" Diamond yelled.
"Well, you know what they say, men can have pregnancy symptoms too." Ava mumbled.
"Shut up Ava. Not today." Diamond said.
"Just tell him. I'm getting really tired of holding it in and I know Noelle is too."
"I'm not ready—"
"You're not gonna be ready until you start showing." Ava told her. Diamond waved her off as she continued to assemble the baby bed. She knew that it was time to tell Shawn. But she was too afraid.
Meanwhile, in the other room, Noelle sighed to herself while Jamir attempted to place the cold paper on her bare skin.
"Shit! That's fuckin' cold!" she exclaimed.
"Bitch calm down! It ain't that cold!" Jamir assured her.
"How would you know? You're not the one who's getting a belly cast done right now."
"I can hear you two arguing all the way in the next room." Diamond laughed while entering the master bedroom.
"I don't think you're doing this the correct way Jamir." Noelle said as she grabbed the paper that was filled with directions.
"I know what I'm doing—"
"You sure?" Diamond questioned.
"Yes! I read the directions like fifty-leven times!"
"Jamir," Diamond laughed. "Now you know fifty-leven isn't a real number."
"I know. I was just exaggerating. Let me finish my masterpiece please!" Jamir told them.
"You heard him Diamond, let Picasso finish his masterpiece." Noelle giggled before feeling a sharp pain in her stomach. Making her bend over while grabbing Jamir's shoulder.
"Damn bitch! You okay? 'Cause you cuttin' off my circulation and shit!" Jamir yelled. Noelle ignored him as she held her stomach. The pain was starting to become unbearable. She couldn't even speak. Diamond noticed the tears well in her eyes and was concerned.
"You okay? You're not having contractions already are you?" Diamond asked while rubbing her back.
"No." She breathed out. "It's too early."
