Hearts Of Glass💔🥀 [completed]

27: Gone

Wale ft. Usher- Matrimony

"This is hard, tryna find some time to move on
Cause when we lost our baby, I got shady, shit got too dark"

Maia

The angels danced around me in an endless circle. I smiled at them and thanked them for taking me home. The white heavens looked finer than I had ever imagined. The fairness and radiance of my skin alarmed me. What was going on? Was I really dead? What about my baby? And Cade? Where's mom? And dad... I'm sure I saw him earlier. Had my life really just flashed before my eyes?

"Maia." A familiar voice called my name.

My eyes slowly opened. The lighting in the room was blinding.

"Cade?" I said.

He had tears in his eyes. He looked heartbroken. I was a little worried.

I tried getting up to sit but the machines that were connected to my body didn't allow me to. The sharp, heavy and piercing pain in my stomach also didn't allow me to move.

"Cade what is it? Why are you crying. I'm not dead. Well I don't think I am." I said.

"No baby, you're alive." He leaned in and kissed my forehead.

"But our baby is gone." He said.

My eyes widened. I tried saying something but I was only choking on my own words. Seeing the tears in Cade's eyes were enough to make me break down. I was literally on the verge of a mental breakdown. I was too weak to even think about the loss of my unborn baby.
Then I remembered. I saw him. My father.

My mom walked into the room and she seemed to say something but I didn't hear it.

"Mom, I saw him."

"Saw who sweetie?" She asked as she sat next to my bed.

"Dad. He was there mom I swear."

Her facial expression changed and she shook her head and looked at Cade.

"It must be the amnesia." She said to him.

"Mom, I can hear you." A tear slipped out of my left eye.
"I know you don't want to hear about him but face the facts mom, he's back in tow-"

"How do you even know it's him? You last saw him when you were a little girl." She rose her voice.
"And you never told me you were pregnant." She argued.

"That's not important right no-"

"Not important? That was my grandchild. Don't you ever think of other people besides yourself." She said.

Her words cut deeper than a knife.
Did she not realise I was hurt too? This was my baby.

"You're just trying to move away from what's important here. I saw him. He was there and I know it. It doesn't matter if I last saw him when I was little. I could recognise him." I cried.

"I better go pay the hospital bill." She said and made her way out.

I just couldn't believe it. Before she could leave, a young looking nurse walked into the room.

"Do you know where I can pay the bill?"

"Oh the bill has already been paid." The nurse answered.

My face lit up.

"Who paid the bill?" I asked.

"A tall, dark haired man. He didn't give us his name." She answered.

"See mom." I reasoned.

She shook her head and walked out.

Tears rolled down my eyes... once again. I just lost my baby and now it's like I'm losing myself and my head.

"It's ok Maia, I believe you." He said, coming closer.

I felt a little secure with him by my side but I just didn't want to cry anymore.

When was I going to smile and be happy?
