"There is no way to fix a placental abruption. Since you only had a partial, and it wasn't that bad, it will heal on its own. Had it been more severe we would have had to perform an emergency C-section. Being that you are only thirty weeks, thankfully we did not have to go that route.
Thirty weeks is survivable, but it is not where we want to be. Every additional day inside is a day her lungs develop further. Our goal is to get you to thirty two, and ideally thirty three, and then deliver her under controlled conditions.
We or rather your obstetrician will closely monitor you over the next couple weeks to determine whether to induce you or not. In the meantime, to continue healing, you will need to be on bed rest. No heavy lifting, no excessive walking or movement. No stress, or strenuous activities.
And lastly no sex," he said.
"What the fuck," Khaizon said at the same time as I said,
"But Dr. Patel told me sex was fine."
"Yes, that was before, but now you are in a position where sex can be harmful to your already weakened cervix. So absolutely no penetration. Again, you can follow up with your doctor for more information," Dr. Ellison said.
"Since it's about my baby, ima be ok with no sex. But, soon as you cleared I'ma make up for every single day missed," Khaizon said looking at me with a straight face.
"Khi," Lyric said laughing.
"Mind your business or cover your ears this a conversation between me and my woman," his ass said but with humor in his voice.
Surprisingly, his outburst seemed to instantly lighten the tense mood of the room.
After Dr. Ellison finished answering all of the questions we had, well that Khaizon's ass had, he then did an ultrasound before leaving.
"See I told you everything was ok. Lyric ass was panicking and shit," Khaizon said as we all burst out laughing.
"Nigga me? Did you forget they put your ass out the room and wasn't gone let you back up," Lyric said laughing.
"I wasn't panicking I was pissed off. When I ask a direct question, I expect direct answers. Them bitches was pissing me off dancing around the question and shit. I wasn't playing when I said I wanted our own hospital wing with private staff. And, they ain't let me do shit,
I was coming back in this bitch by choice or force. Thankfully for them, they made the right decision," he said.
"After what happened at the grand opening, we can't have any problems," Lyric said.
"As long as you've known me, you should know by now that I love problems. I always come up with the perfect solutions to them," he said.
"Speaking of the opening, is everybody ok? Kilo? Jugg and the girls?" I asked him just as there was another knock on my door. I was getting sick of dealing with people at this point, especially now that I knew me and baby girl were ok.
"Don't ask me bout no other niggas, they don't need your concern," Khaizon said in a playful way but I knew his ass was serious.
"Yeah Kilo and Jugg are both ok. They came up here earlier to get Khi after his ass was put out; you was still in surgery then," Lyric said.
"Good," I said yawning.
"I'm bout to go grab me some coffee and call daddy to update him on everything," Lyric said as I yawned again.
"We need to get some sleep, you need rest and so do I," Khaizon said when Lyric walked out the room.
"I just woke up I'm not tired," I said while yawning.
"Bed rest was one of the requirements that doc said you needed. Yo ass in bed already so you need to rest," he said. I could already tell he was gone get on my damn nerves the remainder of this pregnancy.
"Bedrest doesn't necessarily mean sleep, it means you don't need to be on your feet," I said.
"I see you seem to have forgotten how shit works. This not something up for discussion. You've had a long past twenty four hours, I don't give a fuck if you woke up six hours ago, you need to go to sleep. You can barely keep your eyes open and keep yawning.
Don't think cus we in a hospital that saves you from punishment," he said in a low tone.
Rolling my eyes at him I said, "Not you the one stressing the importance of following the doctor's orders, yet in the same breath speaking about sex. Did you forget he said no sex?" I said.
"I know exactly what he said. He said no penetration, he didn't say shit about your mouth. Your pussy pregnant not your mouth. That can be penetrated just fine. How quickly you've forgotten that I once told you as punishment I would tie your ass up, feed you nothing but dick down your throat.
Or better yet eat that pussy but refuse to let you cum. You do know women can get blue balls as well? You ever been on the verge of an orgasm only for that feeling to be snatched away? Now imagine that happening over and over again all night long.
Me bringing you to the edge but also preventing you from falling over it. I'd have my fun, kiss you goodnight, then I'd leave your ass tied up and sexually frustrated, unable to touch yourself at all," this crazy ass nigga had the nerve to say.
I simply stared at him for a few moments before saying,
"Ok let's go to sleep."
"You eating like a nigga who been in jail for ten years and just getting out," I said to Jugg. His ass had folded a slice of pizza in half, ate it in two bites and was already on his second slice.
"Fuck you nigga, you need to practice eating fast. Cuz the first few months gone be hell when Journi drop that baby. Shit with my first one we was lucky if we got to eat at all," he said.
"Nigga what the fuck you talking bout yo fat head ass ain't miss no meals when Kharice was born. Ma was at the crib with yall helping out." Kilo said.
"Nigga was you there? Cuz helping out don't mean I ate shit," Jugg said.
I let them niggas argue while I ate my chopped cheese.
I hadn't really been eating shit but that nasty ass cafeteria food because Journi couldn't eat certain foods yet.
Her doctors had her on a strict dietary restriction and her ass insisted I do it with her for moral support.
I can't believe my soft ass be agreeing to anything she wants but, after giving it a try for two days, I be damn if I eat another plate of bland unseasoned food.
I was already in the process of getting a full staff together as well as a nutritionist.
Since she was confined to bed rest, she wouldn't be on her feet cooking for me anymore.
And, since I couldn't spend every minute with her, I needed a full round the clock staff of maids, and medical personnel to tend to her every need.
Lyric had agreed to help out occasionally but refused to leave her patients right now.
The idea of strangers in my space still wasn't sitting right with me, but I was forcing myself to not overreact. As long as I vetted everyone correctly and made sure they understood I'd kill their entire family if they played with me, everything should run smoothly.
"Enough bullshitting, Jugg what you got for me?" I asked him.
"On the shooters? Nothing them hoe ass niggas wasn't local. But, I did find the hoe that sucked Tommy up in the alley," Jugg said with a mouth full of food.
"OK what information did you get from her?" I asked.
"Shit cuz the hoe was dead," he said.
"Well how the fuck you knew it was her?" Kilo said.
"Because unlike yall two shoot first ask questions later ass niggas, I went the Sherlock Holmes route. I reviewed the security tapes Shaniya sent over, then just put feelers out asking muthafuckas who she was," Jugg said.
"Nigga quit bullshitting," I said because although it sounded good, we both know damn well that ain't what that nigga did.
"Why you always tryna play a nigga like I'm not a responsible law abiding citizen?" Jugg said with a straight face as me and Kilo burst out laughing.
"Fuck both of you bitch ass hating ass niggas. Anyway, Shaniya gave me all the information on ole girl from where she lived to her hang out spots. First place I checked was her crib and the bitch was in the living room with a bullet in her head. Somebody ain't want her ass talking," Jugg said.
"What about information on the shooters?" I asked.
"Shaniya hasn't sent me any useable information yet. She said give her til tonight cuz half them plates from the plaza came back either to our guests, or rentals. And, she gotta run em through the agencies to get the names on the contracts," Jugg said.
"I'll swing by her place later on because I needed that information when I asked for it, not days later. Journi gone be in the hospital a few more days before she's discharged and, I don't plan on leaving out of town while she's on bedrest," I said.
"So you thinking you gone have to make a trip to Atlanta soon?" Kilo asked.
"If I have a reason to then hell yeah," I said.
I knew he suspected Cam of sending them niggas to our shit but I wasn't so sure.
My cousin was a bitch ass nigga who may have been in his feelings bout my girl and kid but he wouldn't move sloppy like that.
He knows how I'm coming, so if he was gone send a hit, it would be his best shooters not them weak ass niggas that easily got put the fuck down.
However, I still wasn't ruling his ass out either because this could have never been about killing anybody, but about sending a message.
That message being he could touch me if he wanted to cuz had them niggas had better aim, a couple bullets definitely would have hit me or Journi.
The thought of that made me mad all over again and I wanted to dig them bitch ass niggas up and kill them again; this time slowly and more painfully.
"Well you know I'm on whatever you on," Jugg said biting into another slice of pizza.
"Nigga I know you ain't sat up here and ate that whole box by yourself?" Kilo said.
"What? You know my blood sugar run high if I don't eat," Jugg said saying his usual lie.
"Dumb ass nigga it's run low not high. You been saying this same lie for years and still get that shit wrong every time," Kilo said.
"Run these nuts nigga," Jugg said.
"If I didn't think momma would have a heart attack bout her baby boy, I'd have been an only child years ago," Kilo said.
