Hey guys! Warning: this chapter will be very sad. But don't worry it won't be for too long. I apologize if this chapter is a little short. Have a nice day!
Pridelands - 2021
Azra sat her living room, anxiously waiting for Tojo to get home. They lived in Azra's house and had been married for two years. Azra had some exciting news to tell Tojo and she couldn't wait until he got home.
The door opened and Tojo walked into the room. "Hey babe. I'm home." He said and sat down beside Azra. "Tojo, I have some great news." Azra said trying to keep her composure. "What?" Tojo asked. "You're going to be a dad! I'm pregnant!" Azra shouted. Tojo's jaw dropped. "Wow. That's great. I'm going to be a dad…" he said in shock. Azra hugged him and Tojo kissed her cheek.
They spent all evening coming up with possible names for the baby and deciding where the nursery should go. They told their friends and family about it. Eugene was elated. Azra was the happiest of them all because she could finally become a mother and parent the correct way. Unlike Scar and Zira.
Three months later
Azra, Nala, Sarabi, and Sarafina we're all in Azra's living room planning a baby shower that would happen in a few weeks. They knew that the baby would be a girl so Azra and Tojo decided to call it Uri, Azra's middle name.
They were looking at different cakes when Azra started to get cramps. She ignored it for a while but soon it got really bad. Azra excused herself and rushed to the bathroom. She was gone for a while and Sarafina started to get worried so she went to the bathroom and knocked on the door. There was no answer. Sarafina found that the door was unlocked so she opened it.
Azra was on her knees in the floor sobbing profusely. "Honey, what's the matter?" Sarafina asked. "I just lost the baby!" Azra cried. Sarafina gasped. Azra tried to stand up but she was so weak from blood loss and crying so much. Sarafina grabbed her hand and helped her up. They staggered into the living room and Azra collapsed on the couch.
"What's wrong, dear?" Sarabi asked. "I lost her. She's gone." Azra sobbed. Sarabi looked at Sarafina and raised an eyebrow. The baby. Sarafina mouthed. Sarabi understood now. Azra grabbed her phone. "What am I going to tell Tojo?" she said as she dialed his number. "Let me talk to him." Sarafina told her. Azra handed her the phone.
Sarafina went to the back room and told Tojo what happened. Meanwhile Nala and Sarabi tried to comfort Azra. "Azra, I have no experience with miscarriages but your grandmother did. It took years before Uru ever had kids. She remained hopeful and then at 29, she was blessed with twins. Just give it time. You never know what the future holds." Sarabi said wisely.
Azra nodded and wiped her eyes. After a few minutes, Tojo came through the door and into the living room. He sat down beside Azra and hugged her tightly. Nala, Sarafina, and Sarabi knew it was time to leave. Azra and Tojo mourned for days. They made a memorial for Uri beside the tree where they buried Scar.
Azra eventually got over the death of her unborn daughter but she still wished that she could be with her. Azra and Tojo got on with their lives. They lived together peacefully and were still part of the marines and Royal Security. They still did things with the royal family and their friends. They watched Kiara grow from a toddler to kid. Life was going very well. Until…
