Jalen- Liyah! Baby, what's wrong?

Liyah-*groaning in pain* Help! T-the baby's on the way! *keeps groaning in pain, and rubbing her stomach*

Jalen-*panics* Oh shit *calms down* Wait. Have you contractions started coming???

Liyah-*yelling and groaning* Yes! This baby is getting ready to come out of me! They've been started!

Jalen- Then why didn't you call me earlier???

Liyah- Cause it didn't hurt that bad at first. Aah! This baby is coming!

Jalen- O-ok. Calm down. Deep breaths. In and out. Take deep breaths.

Liyah-*yelling* I'm trying to! If you were experiencing the pain I'm experiencing now, you wouldn't want anyone telling you to calm down! There's no way you can calm down when you're about to deliver a baby!

Jalen- I'm sorry. I just don't want my babies to get hurt. *thinks for a minute* Wait a minute. Has your water broke yet?

Liyah-*shakes her head* No.

Jalen- So if your water hasn't broke yet, then that means, that the baby isn't coming until your water breaks.

Liyah-*sighs* Jalen, you trying to calm me down is not gonna make me feel any better, or make this pain go away.

Jalen- N-no. I just thought about it. If your water didn't break yet, then the baby isn't on the way.

Liyah- Ok. Whatever you say.

Jalen- Ok. I'm just gonna go downstairs. Call me when it starts hurting again. Ok?

Liyah-*sighs and rolls her eyes* Ok.

I went downstairs. I wasn't even able to get through a whole episode of Martin before I heard Liyah scream and call my name...

Liyah-*yelling loudly from upstairs* Jalen!!!

Jalen:*rushing upstairs* Liyah! I'm coming!

*in their room*

Jalen:*worried and panicking* What's wrong??!!

Liyah- My water broke!

I looked to where Liyah was pointing. And I seen a big wet stain on the carpet. Wow. I just sat there and stared at it, wondering if a girl saying her water broke was a nice way to say she peed on herself. Suddenly Liyah snapped me out of my thoughts.

Liyah- Don't just stand there looking at it! Help me!

Jalen- Ooohhh! Now the baby's on the way.

After Liyah yelled at me one more time, I carried her downstairs, and sat her on the sofa. I was moving fast. I got me and Liyah some extra clothes because we were staying overnight at the hospital. Then I got the baby's bag together. I put bottles, diapers, onesies, and everything she'd need in there. Then I started calling people, Like Tre and stuff.

I called Tre. Then I beard yelling at me. Again.

Liyah- Can you hurry up before I have this damn baby in the middle of the floor?!

Jalen- OK. I'm sorry.

I got off the phone with Tre, and finished packing for the baby. Then I carried Liyah and put her in the passenger seat of the car, and I put the baby's car seat and carrier in the backseat. I made sure I had everything, and make sure the house was secured. We'd be gone for 2-3 days, so I had to make sure. After that, I sped off to the hospital.
