"How are you feeling?"

"Like I'm going to have another bad pregnancy"

"You gotta stop thinking like that, talk to Eli and figure y'all shit out. I'm not saying forgive him and forget everything but come to a agreement on what's going to happen next. He's going to be in your life for the next eighteen years"

"Alright, Ima call you before I go to bed"

"Aight, I'm bouta to let the boys know we bouta be uncles, if you don't mind"

"Go ahead" I chuckle hanging up, I sent a text to Elijah asking him to come to my room.

Throwing my covers over my half naked body I comb my hair with my fingers.

"Hi mama" Delilah waves opening my door with Elijah behind her

"Hey baby" I smiled watching her climb onto the bed

"Saw fishy's at nap time"

"I know you've told me" I nod glancing at Elijah as he stuffs his hands into his pockets I pointed to the chair beside my bed "sit down"

My phone started ringing, already knowing who it was I answered putting it on speaker.

"Lauren?" her voice seeps through the phone

"Wassup?"

"Ho finito il mio cibo e ho giocato a carte con l'infermiera Asia" Sienna giggles before mumbling to her (I finished my food and played cards with nurse Asia)

"Thats good, I'm busy at the moment do you want to speak to Dee?" I ask as Delilah starts reaching for the phone, they've spoken to each other over the phone a few times now they love each other

"La mia caramella baby!" Sienna shouts happily (my candy baby)

"I'll take that as a yes" I laugh giving the phone to Delilah

"Mia mamma caramella" Delilah giggles into the phone leaving the room (my candy mama)

"I miss you" Elijah says lowly

"The first doctors appointment is next month on the fourth at two o'clock, I'll send you the address don't be late. I'm inviting you for the simple fact that I don't want to go through this along and that your my baby's father" I ignored his statement getting to the point

"Okay" he nods sadly

"I don't want you around me during this pregnancy but I do at the same time. You bring stress and complications, I don't want that in my life especially not now. Your mom told me Elena's baby isn't yours so get that bitch out of my house including her father and yours"

"So your saying I'm only allowed to be at the doctor appointments?"

"Yes, when the baby comes you can see him as much as you'd like but I want him with me at night"

"Him?" Elijah questions

"I'm hoping it's a boy" I nod

He nods softly checking his watch

"Its the grand opening of my tattoo and barbershop, I have to go"

"Bye" I wave turning my back to him

"I hope it's a girl" he mumbles leaving the room

***

The kitchen on the west wing is empty so I made my way to Elijah's side.

I seen his father sitting on the couch with Elena's dad.

"You shouldn't be here" Mr.Ricci hisses

"Fill this with tequila" Elena father snaps holding his glass to me

Starting now, I'm not taking no shit from anybody

"Lauren!" Geovani yells from down the hall, ignoring him I took the glass slamming it into Mr.Ricci's head then used the remaining of the glass and shoved it into Elena's father scalp

"You will not disrespect me in my mava fuckin house, I will kill the both of you in the worst way including your daughter" I whisper deadly low into Elena's father ear then went over to Mr.Ricci "this is your last chance to walk away alive, fuck with me again and I promise you I will carve your heart out"

"Got damn" Geovani whispers turning around

The old me is slowly but surely coming back, get at me
