CHAPTER 27

Bringing baby home

Marco

I pull into the parking lot of the hospital and take a deep breath in. I look in the rearview mirror and the handle of the baby carrier catches my eye.

I have a baby seat in the back of my car. And I am going to leave this place in a little less than an hour with a baby in it.

Holy fuck.

I glance to the passenger seat where Lexi is sitting, wringing her hands in her lap, eyes focused on the hospital entrance.

“I guess today we’re bringing baby home, huh?” I chuckle, trying to break off the ice a little.

“Is this real?” Lexi whispers, then turns her eyes on me. “And I didn’t even think of this until now, but what about a funeral for Sarah, Jason and Yaya? The hospital emailed me to ask what funeral home they should release the bodies to?”

She’s posing the statement as a question and her eyes fill with water. Another huge thing we have to deal with, like she doesn’t have enough going on right now.

“And if my business doesn’t take off,” Lexi continues, “How am I going to support not just myself, but Julia as well?”

There is a hint of hysteria in her voice now, and I rush to reassure her.

“Lexi, you’ll be fine. I am more than capable of taking care of you and Julia both.”

“And what if something happens to you too? Then what?” One lonely tear runs down her cheek, her eyes glowing for the rest of the unshed tears.

“Alexi, I promise you that you will be okay. You will not want for anything. Stop thinking of the worst.”

“I am throwing bad things into the universe,” she gasps and grabs me by the hand. “Look what happen to all three of them after I told you in Florida that I was scared because everything was going too well?”

“That’s got nothing to do with anything, Alexi, and you need to believe that. What happened to your family was an accident. Accidents happen,” I add with another squeeze of her hand.

She doesn’t look convinced but decides to drop it for now.

“We need to go get Julia. They have to show me how to change a diaper.” She chuckles through her tears and wipes at her face. “I’ve never changed a diaper before.”

“You and me both,” I laugh. “I need to pay attention to that too since I’ll be around now, right?”

“God, Marco, how are you still around? What have I done to deserve you in my life?”

I lift my chin at her and grin. “You must have spit into your shirt right.”

“Ha, ass,” she pushes at my shoulder, then presses the door of the car open, and I do the same.

I grab her hand with mine and we walk together toward the large sliding doors. She catches her reflection in the glass and gasps.

“Oh my God, look at my hair! You messed it all up earlier! Why didn’t you say anything?”

“You look beautiful and thoroughly fucked. By me. That’s all I need to know, and that’s all whoever looks at you needs to know.
