Officer: mam, I know your upset, but we have a job to do.  If you insist on being stubborn, we will arrest you for obstruction.

Albee: yow, erica Chill. Cyn don't need to be worried about you going to jail now. Let the man do his job and hold your son.*placing cj in her arms*

Albee: you heard her, beside cyn sleeping right now. Bye now*escorting the police out cyn room*.

China: why can't they have a normal life. Its always something.

Albee: don't know, but you got to go through bullshit to get to the good shit.

Erica walked back in with cyn dr and told him she don't want cyn to have no police questioning until she is stable. The dr agreed and made a note on his pad. He told erica caden results came back good, so he can leave in the morning. Cyn have to stay a few extra days. Her blood pressure a bit low, so is her blood count and iron levels. He prescribe some vitamins to help with her anemic disorder. The told erica, that cyn could eat nothing spicy of acidic for a few days. She could also start breastfeeding. He would remove her catheter in the morning. A nurse will show her how to get the baby to latch on when she up. Also that they would  remove Ari breathing tube a, so cyn could try nursing  her as well in the morning. The more she breast feeds the more she will grow.  Erica thank the dr before he left. King started waking up as soon as he smelled the Chinese take out his grandma brought. Erica place the baby down and washed her hand to eat. She didn't realize how hungry she was until she finished all her food and was bribing king to give her some of his sweet and sour chicken. King had enough of her begging and gave her some of his food while he drank his sprite. Their moms said that they was leaving soon and king wanted to stay, but albee promised him to bring him back tonight when he was bringing erica some more clothes. So he reluctantly left, not before kissing his mom and brother bye. Erica brushed her teeth and crawled into bed with cyn and cuddled up to her. Her son was fast asleep next to her in his little plastic cradle. She said a quick prayer, thanking god for her many blessing and asking him to watch over Ari. She held onto cyn , playing with her fingers and kissing her all over her face. Just as she was about to close her eyes  her phone rang. It was an unknown number.

Erica: hello

??: hey mena.

Erica: who this.

??: oh, my bad. Its Raul. I'm using my home phone, while mines charging at the house.

Erica: oh, what's up

Raul: oh, I'm just following up on cyn. Last time I talked to king he said you still haven't found her. My contacts up north been looking for her as well. I can't see my son crying every time I call. That's why I call you instead of him.
