“Baby, this is our first,” she told me. “First babies take forever to come.”
I honestly didn’t care.
I didn’t want her to spend a single second without me if she needed me.
The thought of her spending hours at home today without me while she went through labor made
my jaw tense.
She pinched me and then pointed to some clothes.
“I brought you a change of clothes,” she said.
I looked at the clothes on top, then down at my uniform.
“Thank you,” I said as I grabbed the clothes and walked into the bathroom.
When I was slipping my boots back on, I heard a commotion.
Coming out, I found Malachi standing out in the hallway and Frankie’s bare ass hanging out as she
peeked out of the room.
I walked up behind her and tugged her gown closed.
She tossed me a look of exasperation over her shoulder.
“Sorry,” I heard.
I looked up to find a frazzled looking nurse running around looking lost.
“What is it?” Frankie asked, sounding focused and not in pain at all.
Even though I’d heard from Malachi that she was apparently six centimeters dilated and in active
labor.
“The doctors are all delivering other babies!” the nurse cried.
Frankie took a step out of the room, and I made sure to hold onto her gown.
“Grab me another gown,” Frankie ordered.
Malachi and the nurse looked at her as if she was crazy.
Me, only getting half of the story, was more confused than they were.
“I said, get me a gown!” Frankie ordered tersely.
Just then Coke, Cora, and my parents exited the elevator.
Frankie didn’t spare them a single glance.
Instead, she was busy shrugging on another gown, only this time so it was covering her backside.
Then she was marching down the hallway toward the room two down from hers, her gown
flapping in the wind.
