I have to apologize for commenting and not posting my own. It's just my opinion I think its rude. I have to bring you up the speed my dear friends.
Friday, the day before ground zero, J called to inquire if I still wanted to go. Hmmm I wonder who has he been talking to or whom has been talking to him? I let him know that I still wanted to go , he was working so our verbage to each other was short.
Saturday, (ground zero) I awoken to discover that I have beaten the girls getting up so I decided to make breakfast for everyone. I mean that is the least I could do since they always spoilin me with breakfast in bed. I watched the time so I could stay on schedule but time continued to play with me by standing still. I was a train wreck waiting to happen .....my hands was literally shaking. I began to meditate. I decided to finish my checklist
Hair ......check
Nails......check
Soothing Bubble Bath.....double check
Girls all packed up......check
Everything was done on my list and I ws feeling just fine. Mommie arrived an hour earlier than I expected just be nosy. LoL The time time she was there she saying how much things she has to do. My daughters (including my four legged one) had all thier things loaded into the SUV in under 10 mins. Kisses and hugs were exchanged then reality sunk in for me. I took a quick peep at the time and butterflies appeared in my stomache. I got into the car and decided to meditate a different way. Driving, blasting Jill Scott, and singing what a beautiful combination. Song has ended, volume back to normal, I am feeling better then I hear a voice say Wow Nubian, you have a lovely voice. I ask him how long has he been listening then he replies back Long enough to know that you luv you sum Jill Scott and that song is your personal anthem. We laghed in unison because it ws so true. I told that I was 2 min away and he told me that he was too. Good then we can meet each other. What are the odds of us talking to each other on the cell and being four car lengths away from each other? Well, that is what exactly happened. We both got out of our cars and embraced each other. I inhaled his manly scent which happened to be my favorite and he inhaled mine. He took a step back and gave me a compliment on my outfit. I blushed. Hello, girl what are you doing? Are you blushing? My God, she is blushing!!!!! What's that you're smiling? Girlfriend take it slow. J told me he and I would be doing asked me if I had something better in mind along the way to just let him know. On our way walking to theatre to purchase our tickets his cell rang I walked away from him to give him space to talk. His expression on his face was not a good one. I hoped whatever has happened it was not one of his duaghters. I walked over and asked are you OK then he said my daughter is in the ER she had an accident. That's all I know. Me being a parent myself, I know and understand how things happen. Sometimes you have make Lemonade in various flavors. I told him let's go and he looked at me in awe. We can do the movie thing some other time, you and I both know that you will be thinking about your baby so let's go. Seeing that he was not thinking straight, I called my sis to have her pick up my car while I drove his car. Lil sis loved this arrangement anyway. I made sure I had my WLEB ( woman little emergency bag) just in case and high tailed to the ER. I told him that everything was going to be OK. In my own mind, I began to pray for the injured baby and the strength for J to be prepared for whatever the doc tells him. We arrive at the ER within 15 mins of the notifying phone call. His mother commented how fast he got there. I made sure I stayed my distance but remained available if he needed me. His ex wife was there with her new husband. She was not rude with me just glad to see a familar face. She hugged me like I was her only friend. I think it was more of the fact of me asking if she was OK. A drunk driver hit the X wife from behind while she was waiting for the light to change, thier daughter was in the backseat with seatbelt. Thank you God for that
The impact of the hit was so strong that it smashed baby into the passenger seat. Both girls were in the back but the driver had an impact at an angle.
Thank God for small micrales. Baby only had a broken arm and leg. From the description of the wreck and the pictures they all could have died. Everyone rejoiced that she was going to be OK. Baby requested for her daddy and me why me and why not her mother I hestitated for a moment but was egged on by the X, his mother, and J . I went into the room and her face was a little bruised up. The first thing she asked was when can I go home? I told her soon just be still. She looked at us and asked why our eyes watered? J told her that we are just glad to know that you are OK. She showed off her cast and asked if I would sign it I told her yes I would once it dries.
Everyone breathes easy now. X wife and J talk for awhile I converse with his mother and X wife's hubby. The decision was that Baby would go home with J while Babygirl would stay with the X wife. X wife has minor injuries that could be seen but the day after she will know the extent for her injuries. Babygirl was fine nothing was wrong with her but she still got examined. She did not mind the seperation and she wanted to make sure that her mama was OK.
Baby was wheeled out cast and all smiling like she had won a trophy of some kind. The plans had changed and I knew that J's mind was still working on changing his emotional state. I drove to the Wal mart and did my one stop shop. Drugs ..... check
Movies....check
Mickey D's for baby check
By the time I got in the car , Baby ws getting drowsy. J decided to take the wheel while I sat in the back with baby helping her eat. We arrive at his domicle. I continued to help Baby finish eating then dressing for bed. I knew the meds the doc prescribed and the meds recieved at the ER she would be sleep in no time. We sat with her and watched Enchanted until she fell asleep. J called in dinner while I decide what movie to watch. The food was there in 30 mins. We ate and laughed quietly at least we tried to. Every 15 mins we took turns checking on Baby. We finally found a movie that we both wanted to see. I woke up Baby out of her sleep so that she could void. We relaxed on the sofa with cover watching a movie. He held me so close that I could here his heart beat. I tried so hard to fight surrending to sleeping. I was watching the movie or so I thought I was
I woke up to find him still holding me and watching me sleep. I shy away from looking at him. He gets up to check up on Baby and make breakfast. I must say that I will never forget this date. This is Strawberry Lemonade. :)
