"Mom, please... I know you do just talk to Dad." Corny was on the phone with his mother the next day just like he promised. Corny's mother really wanted them to visit, but Corny's father wasn't for it.
"Mom just talk to him for me or tell him to call me, alright? Love you too." Corny reiterated and hung up the phone. He let out a heavy sigh and walked towards his and Maybelle's room. He saw his wife lying down arms protecting her stomach, sobbing.
"Baby what's wrong?" Corny ask coming in front of her crouching down to look in her eyes.
"I had a bad dream. I'm okay." She said through tears. He took his hand and cupped her face gently wiping away her tears with his thumb. He looked in her eyes and smiled. She smiled back and he leaned in and gave her a sweet kiss.
"Did you take your meds already?" Corny ask her looking on the night stand for her medicine holder.
"Yes i did." she answered.
"Even your antidepressants?" He ask rasing his brow.
"Yes i did." Maybelle told him, but that was not true. She was still trying to ween herself off of them so she took them out of the holder and put them in the trash.
"Ok.Well we have to do 2 episodes of the show today because the kids have exams tomorrow." Corny said helping her sit up. He crouched down once more and kissed Maybelle's stomach.
"I love you kiddo." Corny whispered. The baby gently kicked and squirmed. Maybelle had never felt it do that before. Her eyes lit up and started to well with tears.
"Corny say it again and put your hands on the baby." She instructed.
"I love you kiddo." Corny said and the baby repeated it's former motions. Maybelle laughed at the sight of Corny's face. He had on a big cheesy grin and his eyes where lit up like the Forth of July.
"Come on baby. We gotta get to the show." Corny said, his smile still plastered on his face.
"Okay. I love you." Maybelle said. She had realized that she hadn't told him that today.
"I love you too." With that they kissed and got ready to head to the show.
