Chapter Twelve: Marcel

When a man finds out he’s going to be a dad, a vortex to another world opens up and swallows him whole. I’m joking, but it does change the scope of things for a man and it changed his core as well. When I found out I was going to be a dad, it was when Sabrina was hunched over the toilet. I had come in after finishing a job for Leo. Usually I try to disappear after every kill but now being committed to Sabrina I had changed things slightly. Now I cleaned up at the warehouse as typical, tried to find some place to show my face at around town, then I’d go home or to her crib.

This is what I did after cleaning up at the warehouse. Once I made it to her crib and used the key she gave me, I looked around for her only to find my future wife on the bathroom floor hugging a toilet. The first thing that came in mind was ‘oh shit,’ I’d never seen her sick on this level before, but it was clear to identify, especially with the dry heaving sounds she was making. So I took it upon myself to go into take care of her mode.

Sweeping her up from the bamboo floor and bringing the small trashcan she kept in the bathroom, I walked her to her room then lay her in bed. Feeling the bed sink with my weight once I sat next to her, I took a cold washcloth to the corner of her mouth to wipe her up-chuck away and watched her stir.

“Hey baby, you get the stomach flu? You don’t look well,” I asked, checking her forehead.

Sabrina laid back with her eyes half-mast, her face contorted at the same time of her lips pressing together as if she were trying to hold back the next wave of vomit working in her stomach. I watched her shake her head, her lush hair forming a halo around her face as she tried to speak. This is when she worked her way towards telling me the truth. We had a rule now, no secrets and she kept with that.

“You’re back,” she said with a groggy voice and light tired huff.

Chuckling I nodded while rubbing her thigh, “Yeah, I am. Was looking for you too and found you on the floor hugging your new man Mr. Toilet. What did you eat that gave you a jacked stomach baby? You don’t have the shit too do you? Not sure I can handle that yet.”

“Shut up, Marcel!” Sabrina gave me a weak smile and weakly slapped my forearm, “I was good all night but, I suddenly became really sick.”

“Ah yeah? Damn, well I know this bomb chicken and dumpling soup recipe that will help you out, just lay back,” I said getting up.

“Baby, I don’t think I can hold that down, it’s not the flu,” she said sitting up.

“You sure? I’ll get you something to drink then,” I added while pulling off my tank and tossing it in her dirty hamper.
