My Baby Is Comig

"I don't think that's how it is done,"Eduardo said.

"How is it done then," Carissa asked

"That one passes through that while the other passes through this one," Eduardo demonstrated.

Chuckling, she said "How did you know how they do it? Only hood boys are good at this," Carissa said.

"Well yeah, I have been a hood boy before that is why I have to say I am better at it than you," he said with a smirk.

She laughed out loud thinking he was exaggerating. Noticing she didn't believe a word he said, he took the thread and needle from her and began knitting. Carissa watched how he was knitting so fast that her jaw fell down open. She couldn't believe it. He had actually really lived in a hood before. Which meant he wasn't raised with a silver spoon in his mouth.

"How do you know how to knit so fast? Even I am not good like that," she said, impressed while he continued what he was doing.

He was about to tell her that he had been a street boy before but stopped and looked at her. Could he trust this girl with his story? How does he know she won't turn out to become a gold digger? No, it will be better to keep it till he learns to trust her.

"I spent some holidays in the hood back in the old days. So, I learnt how to knit from my neighbour, she was very kind to show me," He lied.

"Oh.. I thought...you know...you weren't raised with a silver spoon," she said.

Eduardo just shook his head No as he doesn't want to go deeper into this particular conversation. He is not ready to tell her of his story, but wants to hear hers so badly. How is he going to come out about it without raising any suspicion from her?

"Uhm...isn't it getting late," she said.

Eduardo looked at his watch and noticed it was indeed late. He had stayed there for over six hours now, and wanted to take more. But he didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable, so stopped what he was knitting and stood up.

"Yes, I should be leaving"... he said.

"Ok. Let me walk out," she said and escorted him out of her house. She had discerned that he felt uncomfortable when talking about himself, so she didn't persuade him to say more.

Outside, She escorted him to his car and saw the displeasing look on his face "Did I ask you anything wrong?" she asked.

"No, don't worry. You did no such thing," He replied.

She looked at him for some moments then sighed. If he doesn't want to open up to her then she will just keep it this way.

"See you,".. he said.

"Soon or later?" she asked.

"Maybe soon," he answered.

"Okay, safe journey,"

"Thanks"... he said and got into his car. He drove off from there thinking deeply about how he changed his behaviour suddenly in front of her. "Dammit," he hit the horn shouting without any care in the world.

"I will surely need to fix this next time,"

*******

Drake got out of his car and looked at the mansion. He had to admit, he was indeed scared to even take a step, but he swallowed that fear and made his way towards the gigantic Montenegro mansion. He rang the bell and waited for whoever was going to allow him in.

Abruptly, the door opened and there stood butler Jeffrey with a smile on his face. But as soon as his eyes caught Drake, the smile died down and got replaced by a frown. Drake stared at him waiting for an invite in but that took not less than two minutes.

"Drake, what are you doing here?" butler Jeffrey asked, frowning.

"I came to speak with Alonso"... he said.

"The name is Mr. Montenegro. He is not your age mate for you to call him that," Butler Jeffrey blurted out.

"Okay, I'm sorry. I'm here to see him. Can you please let me in?" Drake asked.

Slowly, butler Jeffrey moved out of the way to allow Drake in. Drake nodded and walked past him. Just as he walked into the lavish hall, Alonso emerged from upstairs with Jessica trailing behind him.

Drake suddenly forgot what he came there for and focused on the woman of his dreams, the love of his life and the mother of his soon to be born child. She looked so exquisite with that big belly that Drake couldn't stop drooling over her.

"What are you doing here?" Alonso growled, breaking his thoughts

.

Drake gave himself time to catch-up before replying "I came to see you."

"I don't allow bastards into my house. Get out,"Alonso yelled.

"I don't mind you calling me a bastard. You can even call me a hypocrite, but I won't mind because I know that I'm not. And Jessica…". he said turning to her " I just hope the time you find out that I didn't cheat on you, it will not be too late"... he said, getting sad.

Jessica clutched to her father's arms behind him getting sombre herself but tried to hide the tears forming in her eyes. Alonso rather got that action wrongly and thought Drake was giving a warning to his daughter.

"Shut up. What do you know? She will not come back to you and never in her life will,"Alonso shouted at him.

Drake ignored him and continued saying whatever he wanted to say to her *I know deep down you believe I will never do that to you. And believe me, I never will. I swear to you, she drugged me, she abused me and I expected you to see that blood was dripping from my nose, but you got blinded with anger and stormed out without caring if I lived or died.

"You didn't even give me a chance to explain myself, since all the thoughts that were filling your mind were negative. Even if you would not allow me to explain, I beg of you, come to my house and check the CCTV cameras, then you would know what I am talking about"... he said.

Jessica let go of her father's arm and walked down to Drake. Alonso held her but let go when she turned and looked at him with a pleading look. She walked down the stairs calculating her steps till she stood in front of Drake.

Right now, she wanted to hug him, feel him and cry in his hands. But felt something pulling her backwards. And she noticed that thing was like a sharp pain in her belly. Her facial expression started changing from sad to extreme pain.

Drake watched Jessica as the look on her face changed. He thought she became angry at him again but noticed the look was not that of anger, but pain. He became worried as to what was happening to her, but got the answer when she held her belly.

He quickly held her as she winced in pain and gave a loud sound, one filled with pain, sadness and grief. Alonso's eyes widened and he quickly rushed to his daughter's side to check up what was happening to her. He saw tears in Drake's eyes as he knelt down beside them.

"My baby is coming".he said….
