I titled my head and eyed her curiously.

“Wait, what do you mean?”

My momma stepped closer and took my hand in hers. Solomon came over and grabbed Pebbles from my other arm.

“One thing you’ll learn soon enough is that a mother’s job doesn’t end when her children become adults. You are mine to care for forever and if one of my children is not whole, then I’m not whole. You will never stop being my baby and I will never stop taking care of you.”

My lips trembled as I wiped the tears from my eyes. We had a talk a few months ago and I was able to apologize for my behavior, but I still felt disconnected from her. She checked on me often, but I guess I was missing her presence more than I thought I did.

“Wait. Does that mean you’re staying for a while?” I glance between her and Solomon.

“Yes. I’ll be here until after my grandson is born to make sure you have support. My soon to be son-in-law has fixed up the mother-in-law suite for me and I’ll be here for as long as you need me. I love you forever and always, Honesty. It doesn’t matter where I am.”

Once again, I burst into tears as she hugged me tightly.

I needed my momma more than I cared to admit and I was so grateful to have her here with me.

Solomon came over and kissed the top of my head and my heart swelled with love and appreciation. He really was the most amazing man and I couldn’t wait to spend the rest of my life with him.

My momma got right to work and whipped up a meal fit for a king. I ate until my belly was stuffed and uncomfortable. Solomon helped me take a shower and washed me up from head to toe. Once he helped me into my pajamas, I crawled into the bed to watch a movie. Since he had to step out for a few hours, my momma came and cuddled with me and rubbed my scalp until I fell asleep. For the first time in a long time, I slept peacefully.

My bladder signaled for me to get up as my son kicked me so hard I thought I was going to pee on myself. When I sat up, the room was completely dark with only the light from the alarm clock glowing. Solomon snored lightly beside me as I got up from the bed. After I relieved myself and washed my hands, I headed back into the room. I was surprised when the time on the alarm read a quarter past five. I hadn’t gotten that much sleep in months and I already felt refreshed.

I climbed back into bed with Solomon and leaned down to kiss him. I hadn’t intended to wake him up, but his eyes shot open as he stared at me. He leaned over to the night stand and cut on the lamp before refocusing his attention back on me.

“You okay, baby?” His hand caressed my protruding belly as he rubbed circles around it.

“Yeah, I’m great actually. I would have still been asleep if your son wasn’t such a hater.”

As soon as I finished my statement, my little man kicked me in the rib.

“See. Your son is an asshole.” I giggled.

Solomon leaned down and pressed his lips against my belly while I sat up Indian style.

“Pryde, tell your momma to stop playing with you. It’s not your fault her pissy ass decided to drink all that water and juice. Tell her, its tight in there and you need some space.”

Baby Pryde loved the sound of daddy’s voice, so he always showed his ass whenever Solomon talked to him.

“And you had the nerve to say that I was going to be the one to take his side. You’re already starting and he’s not even here yet.” I playfully rolled my eyes.

“Aye, he can’t advocate for himself, so I gotta be his voice. Ain’t that right, man?”

Solomon kissed my belly than sat up and pulled me into his lap while he leaned against the headboard.

“How are you feeling?”

“Much better. I don’t know if this was some kind of one night fluke, but I needed that rest. Thank you again for bringing my momma here. It may sound crazy, but I feel calmer with her being here.”

“I had to call in reinforcements. I couldn’t stand to see you suffering and I couldn’t fix it. I want you to know that you have support and you don’t have to go through anything alone. Even if I’m not the one who can help you, I’ll break my neck to find someone who can.” He smirked as I cupped his face.

“You’re more than enough, but I appreciate you for going the extra mile. You always say that you’ll do anything to make me smile and every day you prove that those aren’t just words. I’m the luckiest girl in the world to have someone like you in my corner. You never cease to amaze me.” I leaned forward and kissed him. It started out as a simple peck, but quickly turned into a full on make out session until he finally pulled away.

“You gotta chill with all of that. You’re still on bed rest and I don’t want to start anything I can’t finish.” Solomon insisted.

“We need to get a second opinion because this is crazy. How am I supposed to survive without dick for the rest of my pregnancy?”

Solo thought the shit was funny, but I was going crazy. He still ate my pussy on the regular, but I desperately needed to be penetrated.
