Leah's POV
Friday
8:30 am
6 months later.......
I finally finish curling my hair then unplug the curling iron from the socket.
"Leah are you done ?" Jada asks walking into the bathroom.
"Yeah I just need to change first" I tell her then snap me a picture in the mirror.
"You still haven't told me where we're going" I add. She reminds me of Zaidan when she does this.
He never likes to tell me where he's taking me.
I smile inwardly at the thought of him.
Only if I could just get to hear his voice every morning I will feel a little better.
I feel the baby kick and I put my hand on my stomach.
"Are you okay ?"
"Yeah just the baby kicking"
"Okay"
"So should I wear like a dress or...."
I don't want to wear just anything and it's not for the occasional.
"Yes you can wear a dress"
"Makeup or not ?" I ask.
"Girl jus put on a dress and come...yuh nuh need makeup" she tells me then walk out of the bathroom and I follow behind her.
I walk into my closet and pick out a dress to wear.
"How about this ?" I ask showing Jada the dress.
"Perfect" she says and I smile.
"I'll be waiting on you outside" she says before getting up from the bed then leave the room.
I quickly change into a white dress that stops below my knee , Rick Owens and a black Chanel bag to go along with it.
Zaidan bought me this bag and I never stopped wearing it. It's probably my favorite out of every one of my bags.
Jada walks into the room seconds after.
I feel like taking pictures today. I barely take any during my pregnancy.
"You look good"
"Thanks" I tell her then apply my lipgloss.
"I'm ready"
"Okay let's go" she says then we walk out of the room.
Walking pass the huge mirror in the living room mirror I look at myself again.
I rub my palm over my stomach.
It's only me and you jelly bean.
"Come nuh girl" Jada says looking at me by the door.
"Don't rush me" I tell her rolling my eyes.
We leave and get down to the parking lot.
We slowly walk over to the car.
My eyes widen when I see my mom , Zaidan's mom and Gina by the car.
What !
"Mommy" I shout excitedly.
They walk over to me and I give them all a hug.
I wasn't expecting them to come here at all.
"You look so beautiful as always" Zaidan mom praises me.
"She's glowing" Gina says smiling ear to ear.
"Thank you" I tell them.
"My son will be here to see his child grow in Jesus name" Zaidan mom says raising her hands in the air.
Growing up with a father is something I didn't experience and I always promise to myself that I don't want that for my child.
"I'm going to make sure he comes to church every Sunday when he gets out" she adds.
"Most definitely...." I say to her smiling.
"When did guys come ?"
"Yesterday , Jada knew" Gina says.
We finish up with the conversation in the parking lot then got back into the cars.
I still don't know where we're going.
In about 35 minutes we pull up to a hotel.
We take the elevator and Jada leads me to a door.
She covers my eyes with her hand and once the door opens she removes her hand , I'm greeted by a crowd of people.
Oh my god.
I look around smiling.
Wow.
I spot my cousin Nique running over to me.
"Lee lee" she says smiling then we hug.
"Di weight fit yuh mi nah lie" she adds and I roll my eyes.
This is crazy.
I'm speechless.
A little boy walks up to me and touches my stomach.
"Cousin" he says and I look down at him I awe.
"This is Zaidan's nephew" Zaidan's mom says to me.
I figured.
"How did you guys got here ?" I ask Nique curiously.
"Don't worry about that"
I look around at how the place is designed.
So nice.
I feel my stomach tightens a little and I put my hand there.
I exhale.
"Yuh good ?"
"Girl siddung" Nique tells me then take my hand to help me to sit on sofa.
I then spot my mom walking over to me.
"Yuh just a glow suh" she says as she reaches over to us.
Second time I'm hearing this today.
"She a angle di pregnancy" Nique says and I laugh.
About 2 hours pass. The vibes has been right.
"Girl is a big draws mi see inna di man room den mi ask him a who fah own...him aguh look inna mi eye and tell mi seh a mines" Nique says and I burst out into laughter.
"Girl mi seh me and him fight dah night deh yussi cause me a say di boy nah nuh manners"
"Yuh know seh mi wouldn't argue wid him , mi woulda jus leave" I tell her.
"One box mi give him. Yuh think mi play"
Nique always have some interesting stories to tell me.
This girl is naturally funny.
"Yuh still can dance Lee lee ?" she asks.
"Mi nuh know enuh" I shrug. I'm the dancer in the family.
"Show mi sumu nuh"
"Girl I'm carrying a whole baby"
"Suh wah dat seh ?"
"Remember I'm not 16 year old Leah again"
"Stop old up yuh self" she says and I chuckle.
I can still do a little something.
"Mi just know yuh bad inna bed" she adds.
"Who me ?...No" I say with a smile playing on my lips.
"Anything yuh seh lee lee , yuh love gwan soft like yuh cya mash ants"
"I know right" Jada voice pulls my attention.
She takes a seat on the sofa me and Nique is sitting on.
"Are you enjoying yourself so far ?" she asks me.
I nod.
"Can you believe this girl was 2 months pregnant and she didn't know" she adds.
I still can't believe.
I really wasn't getting any symptoms.
Maybe headache but I alway get headaches so I wasn't thinking nothing was wrong.
I was sleeping a lot too but I thought it was just work that's making me so tired.
Oh shit I forgot I wanted to take some pictures.
I pick up my phone beside me then turn it on.
"Jada take me some pictures" I say before handing her my phone.
She goes infront me and hold the phone up then snap me a picture.
We take like 20 more pictures before I see one that I actually want to keep.
I decide to pick up my phone and scroll through instagram.
I barely go on this app anymore.
Why am I getting so many notifications ?
My eyes widen when I check it.
Why so much pages are tagging me ?
My picture went viral !?
Oh my god.
I check Jada story and realize that she had mentioned me in.
"Jada why would you do this ?" I ask having a slight panic attack.
"What I did ?" she asks looking at me confused.
I bring the phone up to her face to show her.
"Girl you look good as fuck...what's the problem ?"
"Jada the picture went viral" I say then sigh frustratedly.
I wasn't even gonna post it.
"Oh really , your lying right now" she says sounding shocked.
"A true , but this look like news to wul a Jamaica" Nique says looking at her phone.
"Girl suh wah yuh look good pregnant. Mek dem do dis and beat yuh" she adds.
"The picture literally has almost 60k likes and it has just been posted" I say. I'm not a media person.
I literally went from just 12k followers to 40k before I private my page and I know if it wasn't private I would've probably reached 100k by now.
I don't like this at all.
"I just wanted to show off my best friend I didn't expect it to go that viral" Jada says.
"Looks like you forgot who her man is" Nique says.
I'm just glad my page is private.
I shouldn't have update this chapter as yet but because it's been a while I wanted to give you guys an update....
