Over the three weeks that follow a lot of his family flew in from overseas to show their support for him and his wife who was still in a coma and his son who was getting stronger by the day. He would have loved to stay by his wife's side every minute of every day but he couldn't abandon his job and all the other people that were depending on him.
Both his grandmas would stay with her during the day while he works and as his shift changed, during the nights, of course rotating places with his mom, aunts, and cousins so they could also be there for his son. He had a loving and very supportive family and he loves them dearly.
She was also visited by his pastor and church family and even though Mrs. Watson was Kayla's mom, she was also allowed to visit from time to time which gives him a chance to spend some time with Tyrone. The more time he spend with the child, the more he was convinced that he looks like the man that was in his apartment with Kayla that night, the one who said he was paying rent for his apartment.
Now Jessica, Jason, and his brothers made it their duty to keep a close eye on him, making sure he eats, exercised, and got enough sleep so he didn't wear himself out, which he would easily do without even realizing it because he was so worried about his wife and son.

Just like he had done on the nights that he wasn't working he spends some time with his parents and Faith. Which was what he had been doing for the past half an hour, he had then said goodbye to them, hugged his daughter as tight as he could, and now he was alone beside his sleeping wife.
"Come on kitten, I need you to open your beautiful brown eyes for me. Hey, our son is getting stronger; he was born at seven months and two weeks and he's three weeks old today. He will have to stay here for a few more weeks until he develops more but overall he's going to be fine and the doctor said that if he continues on the path that he's on right now, he will be able to go home soon. We need you kitten, Faith misses you so much." He said softly as he massages her fingers.
"Hey remember our song?" He then began singing (Because you loved me by Celine Dion). "Kitten you were my strength when I was weak, you were my voice when I couldn't speak, you were my eyes when I couldn't see you saw the best there was in me, lifted me up when I couldn't reach, you gave me faith coz you believed, I'm everything I am because you loved me kitten and you told me you were everything you are because I loved you, so please open your eyes for me kitten please."
"Kitten you're the one that massages and kissed every inch of me while I tell you about my day or night. The one that sends chills through my entire body with your touch. The only one that has ever completely opened herself to me, complete trust is what you've shown me and I promise I'll never make you regret doing that, I love you kitten." He said placing his head next to her and crying himself to sleep.
