The baby stared back at him as if he was waiting for him to answer where he had been for the last couple of hours. Then he let out a big cry. 

Demetrius- what did i do wrong lil man?

Divinity reaches his arms out and says calm down Princeton, daddy didn't do anything wrong.Demetrius Princeton?Divinity- you like it?

Demetrius- it's cool, why Princeton?Divinity- It was my top school pick. Been dreaming about it since I was a babyDemetrius- You never told me that?

Divinity- There were a lot of things that I didn't get to tell you. 

Demetrius- Tell me now, I got all the time in the world. 

Divinity looks up as the nurse comes in again. Nurse mommy verify the last name on the ID bracelet for me?

Divinity- Shipp

Nurse thank you. She takes both of their vitals and says okay, mom we will bring him back as soon as we are done. 

Demetrius, wait where are they going?

 Divinity says they are going to circumcise him and bring him back.... you okay?

Demetrius -yeah, He looks over at Princeton and then takes him from Divinity. You gonna be just fine little man. Daddy is going to be right here when you come back. The nurse wheels him out in the bassinet 

Divinity says so what brings you back to LA?

Demetrius says what you mean?Divinity. I know you skipped town, so where have you been?

Demetrius says how do you know I haven't been in LA 

Divinity sighs and says I just know. 

Demetrius what about you? My mom hasn't heard from you either where have you been hiding?Divinity says away from your crazy father.

Demetrius- mine?

Divinity that is what I said. He showed up to my building where i used to live and had the doorman and the guards beat up. They never told him where I lived. She sniffles and says what did i do to that man that he hates me so much. 

Demetrius is pissed. He says Divinity you can't stay here.

Divinity why?

Demetrius- Priscilla...thats my dad's cousin, she'll tell him I'm here. 

 When they bring Princeton, back, we have to go. 

Divinity- you do realize that i just had that baby TODAY we aren't going to be able to be discharged. 

Demetrius if you don't leave this hospital, you might never leave...I didn't want to tell you why my dad was after you, but i can't let him hurt you or my son. 

The nurse brings the baby back about 40 minutes later and he is sleeping. 

 Demetrius says medically if we left the hospital tonight would everything be good? The nurse says normally, we like to make sure there are no complications and then after 2 days we release mom and baby. 

Demetrius says she is really private and we are moving cross country for job, baby boy just couldn't wait to be born. The nurse says the doctor will be in with you shortly..... 

----------------------------------------Priscilla- Pac, I'm telling you, Demetrius is at the hospital with the baby and the girl right now... just pull around to the back and I will take you to them. 20,000 like we talked about.... okay, okay see you soon.
