"Oh my god," I said, staring at my baby on the sonogram screen. "I can't believe that that little thing is inside of me."

The nurse laughed, nodding. "Everybody says that girl. But its a blessing isn't it?"

I nodded, still staring at the small figure on the screen. "Absolutely."

"Might I ask why the father is not with you?" She asked, beginning the wipe the cream off my stomach. I rolled my eyes.

"He's an asshole thats why," I said, pulling my shirt down and sitting up.

"Oh...I see," She nodded. "Men, huh?"

"Pft, tell me about it," I shook my head.

"I'll get the doctor okay?"

I nodded and she left. While I waited, my phone began to vibrate and I looked down to see Evette's name.

"Hello?"

"Hey girl, did you see the little shrimp yet?" She asked, referring to the baby.

"Yeah," I chuckled. "I just saw it. She's gorgeous."

"She? They told you the sex already?"

"No, but I know its a girl. I can feel it."

"Mhmm, crazy ass," She mumbled. "But anyway lets meet up for lunch. I feel like I ain't see you in ages."

"You saw me yesterday, though."

"Same thing, girl. Just meet me at the Olive Garden by my hiouse in an hour, okay?"

"Alright, chica. Love ya."

"Love ya too, bitch."

We hung up and Doctor Damar walked in, talking to somebody. I looked up to see him talking to August. Of course.

"There she is," Dr. Damar smiled pointing me. "Kalissa, you never told me you had a husband."

"A husband? I am not-"

"Sorry, I'm late, baby," August said, kissing my lips, shutting me up. "I had to do some work in the studio."

"What are you doing here?" I mumbled, giving him the illest look.

"I'm here for our baby," He mumbled back. "I was fucked up, Kay, iight? But it was my mistake and I'm sorry. I wanna be here for you and the baby. Forreal."

I rolled my eyes, turning my attention back to the doctor. "Dr. D, is everything okay with my daughter?"

"You mean our son," August corrected. I cut him another eye and turned back to Dr. D.

"Yes, everything is fine," Dr. D laughed. "The baby is healthy as can be. I am just concerned about your diet, Kalissa. You need to start eating more heathlier and staying off your feet more. Or else the baby will have problems in the future."

"I'm sorry, my job has me on my feet all day," I said, starting to think back to all the positions the photographers has me doing all day.

"Well maybe a little time off will do. I can write a note, if you'd like," The doctor offered.

"Maybe when I'm more far along," I said, turning down his offer. "I mean I am only almost a month in."

"Nah, Doc, she'll take it now," August butted in.

"Okay, I'll be back," Dr. Damar said, walking back outside.

"August why would you say that?" I asked, getting annoyed by him already. "How am I suppose support myself if I'm not working?"
