present day, the next morning

Anastasia lay in her bed listening to the birds chirp as she watched the sun come up from the window adjacent to her bed. As promised, Antonio was out of her home and she just lay there as she waited for her kids to wake up. She decided to keep both kids home as she knew Heaven was still sick and she didn't want to risk Jacob getting his classmates sick because he had been around her

she couldn't stand parents who sent their kids to school knowing they had been exposed to sickness

her kids weren't bad but she enjoyed moments like this where she could take a break from having all the answers and being asked a million questions. she loved moments like this where she could just relax and steal some peace.

she heard her phone ringing causing her to sigh in annoyance. it was barely 9:00 a.m. and niggas already needed something from her

" hello" she said answering the phone without looking to see who was calling

" hellooooo" Erica said in a sing -song tone making her smile. it seemed like ever since erica got with that man she barely came around anymore. she missed her but she was happy for her friend beause it seemed like she found a good thing.

she wanted that too

" where have you been girl? "

" put the fuck up" she said before both of them bust out laughing because it was very much true. ever since she met her man she had quit her job and happily took the role of a stay at home girlfriend. she didnt have to worry about any bills, she got whatever she asked for , and all she had to do was look cute and take care of the home.

he treated her like the queen she was and never made her feel bad for relying on her like she should. he even gave her an allowance that she could save and use for whatever

" how is that life"

" it's good honestly, you know i been saying i've been tired of working for a long ass time" which is true. Unlike Anastasia, she started working at the age of 15. her first job was boosting and she did that until she got locked up at 17.

after her 6 month bid she started her legit job as a receptionist at a local nail salon. The pay wasnt great but she was able to find her sugar daddy and start her college career with her best friend. Despite the sugar daddy she still worked because he would always move like he would take the money away

" That you have, im happy for you friend but I miss you"

"I know baby i have to come see you and my God children. How are they by the way ?"

" They're great honestly. Ever since antonio has come back into their lives they've been so happy. Im so glad he stepped in because they needed him" She said with a smile on her face. The thought of him alone and what he done for their children was enough to bring her butterflies

" And whats been going on since that day I walked in on him cooking breakfast playing husband" laughter filled the room because her friend really clocked her tea.

" We just been chilling honestly"

" You been chilling on that dick huh"

" Whenever I want to honestly. I like what we got going on but I can tell he wants more"

" you know he wants---" Before Erica could finish her sentence Jacob burst into the room. At first she went to ignore him because it was a habit for her kids to come in and cuddle for a few minutes but the look on his face stopped her.

" Momma I think something is wrong with sissy" He said before running out of the room. forgetting all about her conversation she jumped out of the bed and ran to where she was. Jacob was right because she did not look well at all

she was drenched in sweat, she was shaking , and it looked like she was struggling to breathe. She sounded very wheezy and that worried her

" I don't feel too good mommy" She said weakly which made her mothers heart drop. There was definitely something wrong with her child " Go get some shoes on" She demanded Jacob before grabbing heaven. She didnt care about her being in her pjs as she ran down the stairs and into her car

" Hurry up baby" She yelled because Jacob was moving a little too slow for her liking. All she knew was she had to get to the hospital. The way her baby was looking she felt it was something serious and she didnt want to wait for it to get too bad either

" Call daddy" Jacob said to his phone as he got in the car. She whipped her car out of the driveway and turned on her hazards. She'd be her own police escort before she got caught in traffic in a stressful situation like this.

Small wheezing noises took over the car as she drove down the road and her son called his father . She was panicking but she couldn't act because of her babies

" hey son" she heard his phone blare through the phone" we're on the way to the hospital toni, theres something wrong with heaven" she said merging lanes. thankfully the hospital wasnt too far from her house " which one" she could hear brief shuffling before the engine of his car. she told him which hospital before turning in the parking lot a few minutes later.

" I don't hear her any more" Jacob panicked as he watch his sister eyes roll to the back of her head " stop playing sissy it isn't funny anymore" he sobbed . He was scared out of his mind now. He had never witnessed anything so scary .

she raced to the backseat grabbing both of her children. she looked down noticing she wasnt really breathing.

her heart dropped

" hold on baby were here" she said before she rushed into the building. The big automatic doors were loud as drums as she burst through them

" please help me, my daughter isnt breathing" she screamed making everybody in the waiting room turn to look at her. doctors with a stretcher rushed towards her noticing the young girl

" we have a faint pulse , lets move people" a nurse shouted before she and her team rushed towards the back. She followed them holding her daughters hand " you fight for us you hear me" she sobbed " we need you baby" her cries grew louder

" ma'am you can't come back here" the doctor said as the rest of the room took her through the big double doors. " please I can't leave my baby" she pleaded with the doctor. She couldn't imagine this being the last time she saw her daughters face

" you have to let us do our jobs if you want to help her , we got her" the doctor said before walking away. She turned around to go back to the waiting room . She instantly spotted her son crying on his father's chest.

Antonio was visibly upset as he consoled his son but her knew he had to be there for all three of them if they were gonna make it through this

Noticing the love of his life standing there ,he stood with his son, holding him as he pulled her into a hug. " she gone be alright" he said kissing her forehead before doing the same to his son . Her body shook as she cried for her daughter . "With the blood she got running through her Veins she gone be alright. "
