Abandoned Baby
Chapter 100
Now that Bless was 5 months pregnant, she didn't know whether she wanted to go home and face the music of all her family and friends especially Drew since it was still hard for her to face the music. She wondered if they were thinking about her eversince of her disappearance.
"Mommy...Mommy..."Catherine called out to Bless wondering where she was.
Bless went back inside the room after over looking the city scape of her home town from her balcony.
"Hey there beautiful. Did you just wake up?" Bless asked Catherine giving her a kiss on the forehead.
"Uh hu...I was looking for you mommy..."The little girl told her.
"I'm here now sweetie. Mommy promises she's not leaving." Bless promised her baby girl kissing her forehead and held her close.
"Mommy, when we see dada?" Catherine asked her mom that she wanted to see her daddy.
"I...I don't know baby..."Bless was honest with her daughter if they would ever see Drew again.
"I miss dada." Catherine sniffled missing him so much.
"I miss him too baby but mommy is not ready to face daddy yet." Bless understood how her daughter felt that she wanted to see Drew but wasn't sure if she wanted to see him yet. Bless felt selfish for keeping her kids away from Drew but didn't want to get hurt all over again.
"Did dada do something bad mommy?" The little toddler asked her mom who had tears in her eyes.
"I don't understand how to explain it but one day you'll understand okay?" Bless sniffled looking up at her beautiful daughter stroking her hair.
"Okay. I love you mommy. Don't cry." Catherine said as she wiped her mommy's tears away and kissed and hugged her.
"Thank you baby. That makes momma feel better." Bless smiled as they embraced.
"Do you want to eat lunch now that you're up?" The young mom asked her daughter.
"Hungry." The little one pouted hearing her stomach growling.
"Okay. Mommy's gonna order something to eat." Bless told her daughter. Thank goodness Bless remembered to cancel her old credit cards and other stuff and get new cards under her new name that way she wouldn't be traced by anybody that would know her.
A few minutes later Bless called room service and they would bring the food up later once it was done.
"Do you want to watch cartoons sweetie while we wait for the food to arrive?" Bless asked Catherine.
"Okay." Catherine didn't mind as she sat on their bed with her stuffed puppy that was with her as Bless popped in "Little Mermaid" for Catherine to watch and keep her distracted for the mean time.
A few minutes later Bless heard a knock at the door and grabbed a tip before opening the door with the food that was brought up for them.
"Salamat." (Thanks) Bless said as she tipped the person outside the door before grabbing the food cart bringing it in.
Meanwhile in Atlanta, GA...
"Hey Drew. Any news yet?" Stephen (Sheamus) asked his best friend about Bless and the children.
"Not yet Ste. I wished though...I miss them so much." Drew sighed as he ran his fingers through his long chestnut locks thinking of them.
"I know buddy. I miss them too." Stephen sighed missing Bless and Catherine and his heart ached wishing they would come back home to them safe and sound.
"I wish I could turn the clock back and fixed what I did...I regret kissing that girl while drunk. Gosh I'm an idiot..."Drew mumbled softly shaking his head.
"Bud, we all make mistakes one way or another. I'm sure you and Bless will work this all out when she comes back." The Irish man reassured him that things would be okay.
"I hope so Stephen...I just hope so. I think I'm gonna go back to the bus and get some sleep...I'm just really tired." Drew said feeling so exhausted after the show and all he wanted to do is get away and crash.
"Alright bud. If you need to talk, you know I'm here for you right?" The bigger man understood clapping the Scot's shoulder letting him know he would be there as a friend if he needed anything.
"I know. Thanks."Drew appreciated his friends sentiments with a small smile as he started to pack up and head back to the tour bus and try to get some real needed rest.
When he got to the bus, he put his luggages and bags away before going to change his clothes and head to his and Bless' room.
He smiled at the framed pic of them sitting together on the grass at the park together and they looked genuinely happy as a couple.
"Good night love. I miss you...please come back me soon..." Drew said tracing his finger on her face of the picture of her smiling face before he placed it down as he laid in his bed hoping to have his family back together again.
Back in Manila 8:45PM
"Baby, time to take your bath then it's nap time." Bless told her daughter getting her stuff to take a bath.
"Okay momma." Catherine obeyed her mother turning off the tv as she reached for her mom's hand as Bless put the stuff that she needed on top of the counter before stripping Catherine of her clothes putting them in a laundry bag and turning on the water lifting the little girl putting her in the warm water.
"Mommy, when we go back home?" The little girl asked her mommy.
"Mommy doesn't know when yet baby but when we do I promise we'll visit your Uncle PJ and the guys okay?" Bless promised her as she shampooed her daughter's hair.
"What about dada?" Catherine wondered missing her dad so much.
Bless sighed and didn't know how to answer that question of Drew and wanted so much to tell her daughter but still it was so difficult for Bless to break her walls of her heart down.
"I don't know sweetie. When the time is right." Her mother honestly told her when they would see Drew again.
"I miss dada." Catherine sadly sniffled missing Drew and wished he would be with them.
"I know sweetie...we both love you very much but mommy doesn't know if she loves daddy right now..." Bless said as her daughter faced her.
"Mommy, don't cry...I love you." Catherine let her mother know taking her hand to wipe her mommy's tears.
"I love you too baby." Bless bent down to kiss her daughter's hand.
Even though Catherine didn't understand the situation between her parents, she still loved her mom very much and hated to see her cry whatever her daddy did to make mommy cry.
After Bless gave Catherine a bath, she dressed her up in a little Princess night gown and brushed her long locks of hair that was starting to grow out.
"Princess, come here. Mommy will help you brush your teeth." Bless told her daughter after brushing her long curly hair.
"Okay." The little girl understood as she stood up on the little stool with her mom helping her.
"Good girl. One day you'll be able to brush your teeth on your own and be independent just like mommy." Bless said proudly to her daughter.
"What does independent mean mommy?" The small little girl was curious as she watched her mom open the cap to put her gum flavored toothpaste on her Elmo toothbrush.
"It just means you will be soon be able to do things on your own without mommy's help." The young mom told her with a warm smile as she helped brush and rinse her daughter's mouth.
"Spit out the water baby after you rinse." Her mom instructed her as she did so.
"Good girl." The 26 year old mom smiled as she grabbed a small napkin and wiped her daughter's mouth with it before putting her toothbrush and toothpaste away.
"Honey, while mommy showers, why don't you go take your teddy and lay down and watch tv while mommy finishes up in here okay. Don't go anywhere else." Bless instructed her daughter.
"Promise mommy." The little swore as Bless kissed her daughter's cheek before the little girl went in the room to watch tv while her mother took her own bath.
Once Bless finished taking her shower, she changed into a pair of pajamas and cleaned up a little in the bathroom before joining her daughter who was laying down on the bed on her side while watching cartoons.
"Mommy's done." Bless said smiling at her daughter who was contently on the bed with her stuffed dog that Drew gave her as a baby in her arms.
"Mommy, can I have juice before beddy time?" Catherine asked her mommy when she seen her.
"Sure you may baby." Bless didn't mind that Catherine let go of her stuffed puppy before making her way to the mini fridge to get her sippy cup that was filled with grape juice and went back to the bed where her mom was drying and combing her hair.
"Momma, what we do tomorrow?" The sweet little angel asked after taking a sip of her juice.
"Do you want to go to the park or shopping with mommy?" Bless asked her daughter to spend time with her.
"Shopping." The little girl smiled which was her favorite thing to do with her mommy since her mommy liked buying things either for herself or for her when it came to toys or clothes.
"Okay shopping tomorrow it is. If we can try sleeping a little early tonight then we'll see if we can get a head start early in the morning." Her mother suggested wanting to spend time with her daughter and wanted to buy new clothes especially for the baby.
"YEY!"The little girl was excited.
The two girls finally fell asleep about quarter to 9 that way they could get up around 8 and start their mother and daughter day without any worries that they had and enjoy their day.
