I don't remember much but I woke up hearing sirens and being rushed back into the hospital. " Mrs.Lowery can you hear me ?" I heard some calling my name but everything was a blur, with blobs of light.
Moments later when I was fully aware,
I was in the hospital and Aaliyah was beside me. " On my god you're awake finally." I saw her crying . " Are you okay ? Why are you crying ?" I tried to move but I was in excruciating pain. Then I realize that my stomach wasn't as big as it was. "Carrie they have him." She said in between cries. I started sob with her. " Where's my baby! Call the nurse now ! Where's my baby !" Aaliyah went to get a nurse so they can fill me in on what happened. Jeremey was driving 25 over the speed limit and crashed into a semi truck. The impact put so much pressure on my stomach I almost bled out my baby boy. But the good news was he was stable and in NICU. "When can I see him ?" " Tomorrow they want to make sure he's doing well." The nurse left the room but before she did I asked about Jeremey.
She explained to me that Jeremey was fine he walked away with minor bruises and a broken arm. " I can't believe he just got a broken arm why the hell was he driving so damn fast !" Aaliyah looked like she wanted to do what the car crash should have. " He found out that I had chlamydia." "That's no reason to speed with someone in the car that is pregnant with their child!"
Aaliyah was pacing back and forth.
Jeremey walked in the door moments later with his arm in a cast and bruised arm and face. " Babe how are you, I am so sorry so so sorry for what I did." Before I could say anything Aaliyah jumped in " Sorry ? Sorry ? What the hell do you mean you're sorry she could have died and your son! What kind of man are you to get mad over something and take your anger out on the road ! I could just ..." " Just what !? Say so I could hi.." " Y'all just calm down and Jeremey I don't want you around right now you could've killed me and your baby boy." Jeremey tried to come over and hug me but I wanted him out I couldn't even look at him and now I just wanted to be in Marcus's arms but that will never happened. He's still in ICU and last I heard he's doing pretty well his mom and dad came down to take care of him while I worked. Aaliyah stayed by my side the whole time I was in the hospital. I finally saw my baby boy. I finally came up with a name for him: William James Klein. I named him after my dad who died from cancer. " Aaliyah he's adorable he has your eyes and thank god he has your hair." I laughed and just sat there to enjoy my baby boy.
A couples of days out of the hospital with my healthy boy and I couldn't be happier. " Mama loves you , yes she does." I suddenly heard a knock at the door, it was of course Jeremey.
"Can I see my son ?" "I'm doing fine thanks for asking ." I handed William to him not wanting to but I knew it was the right thing. " hey man , daddy's here now." Honestly I didn't know how this would work .
We haven't been seeing eye to eye lately and with Marcus getting out soon i'm not sure of what I want. Another knock at the door and to my surprise it was Marcus.
