eyes just taking advantage of the quiet time, because it definitely wasn’t going to last long once the kids made it home. She sighed as her mind wandered off to Bianca’s state of being. It was hard for her to wrap her mind around the things that had taken place in just a week’s time, but so little could happen so quickly. As she lay there her phone began to ring.
“There goes my quiet time,” she whispered looking at the caller ID on her cell phone. It was Janay calling so she anxiously answered it. “Hello my beautiful sister.”
“Hey sis,” Janay responded back. “How are you feeling? You sound tired.”
“I am. I just left the gym girl.”
“No wonder. Are you seeing any results yet?” Janay asked knowing that her sister’s self-esteem had dropped over the years about her weight gain.
“I’ve been sticking with it for six weeks now and I can tell that I’m finally losing something.” She grinned. “I’m down to one hundred and ninety three pounds. Mind you, I was two hundred and twenty pounds before I got started.”
“Damn Kerry, that’s good.” Janay was proud of her sister. “Honestly, I couldn’t even tell that you weighed that much. All your weight is solid and lands in your hips and thighs.”
“Yeah but I’d started getting a lil gut too and you know that I’ve never had that,” she stated.
“You’re right,” Janay agreed. “But even with a little gut your stomach is still pretty. Mine looks all swollen like I’m about to burst. I think it’s screaming FEED ME as we speak.” They laughed.
“You’re crazy girl.” She said. “Oh before I forget, I thought it was really sweet of Finn to take time out of his busy schedule to come see Bianca. Mom said that he prayed with her and dad while they stood around Bianca’s bed. I tell you, that truly made Mom feel better.”
“That’s my husband. He definitely has his way with people and Mom and Dad have always loved him for being so considerate.” She spoke then moved on. “How is Mom doing anyway? I called and spoke with her the night before last and she broke down over the phone. I hadn’t called her since because I feel so helpless.”
“I know. It’s been hard on her.” Kerry responded. “We’ve been taking turns sitting with Bianca to try and relieve her some, but she’s so stubborn that she’ll hardly leave her side. Daddy has had to make her go home every day just to wash her butt.”
“You know how your mama is; especially about her two baby girls.” She teased. “Speaking of baby girl, how is Kita doing?”
“You know Kita is the emotional one. She’ll dog the hell outta Bianca but they have a special relationship and she loves her so much. As a matter of fact, she stayed the night with her last night because daddy talked mama into going home and sleeping in her own bed since she hadn’t had a good night’s rest since it happened.”
“I hope she got herself some sleep, because I’m sure she needed it.” Janay said.
“Hell, I doubt it because Kita said that she was back at five this morning. She refuses to stay gone too long.”
“That’s a mama’s love for you.” Janay said as she thought about her unborn. “Let’s face it. She is not gonna leave Bianca’s side until she opens her eyes.”
“You’re right,” Kerry agreed thinking that she’d be the same way about her kids. “Are you still coming home this weekend? We miss you, plus mom and dad need to see you. They need you here with us.”
“I know.” She responded. “I just got the okay that I can travel so you know I can’t wait to hit the road. This pregnancy has had me whooped. I mean really whooped.”
“I’m glad you got the okay and is feeling better,” Kerry responded. “I can’t wait to come pick you up tomorrow. That three hour ride is gonna do me some good to get outta the house. Plus, I think that being surrounded by all
