AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is were the baby gets her name and Happy meets his mom. They never state her name in the show so I decided to name her Rosa just to clear up any confusion. This is way before she is ill, and I forgot that she had a sister lol sorry but for later own in the storyline she would have been irrelevent anyways. I hope no one minds, and I hope you all enjoy :D
Chapter 3: Visiting Grandma
"You sure do look cute." Happy said as he admired her her white dress with multiple pink flowers, hot pink bowed sandals, and a hot pink bow headband. He then grabbed his phone dialing his moms number, "Why look who decided to call?" He heard his mother cheer. "I'm on my way I should be there in an hour." He answered simply and smirked when he heard his daughter's loud cry.
"Happy? What's that in the background...it sounds like a baby?" His mother said, "We'll see you in an hour ma."
"We? Happy who's we..." Happy hung up his phone and tossed it in the seat next to him with a laugh, "Yeah ma's gonna have a damn heart attack.
He was only a few minutes away but decided to pull into a gas station, "Let's fill up this car, huh baby." He said pulling up to a pump and shutting off the truck. Putting his burner in his pocket he walked out and went to the side were his daughter was opening the door to hear her loud squeal. "I hear you girl I ain't leavin' you in this hot ass car." Happy told her as he lifted her up taking her into his arm then grabbing the diaper bag with the other.
Happy walked into the gas station which seemed to be littered with loud teenagers making him grunt as he went into the bathroom, "Shit." Happy growled as he walked into the men's then back out when he didn't see a changing table. "Fuck it." He said then went into the women's bathroom locking the door behind himself. "What am I going to name my girl?" He whispered as he began to change her diaper then put a a pacifier with the Anarchy A on it. He buckled her in with the straps on the changing table then did his business when he was done with her.
"Oh my god that is the woman's bathroom!" A woman gasped when he walked out with his daughter. "I had to change my damn kid." He growled, "You should've let her mother do it."
Little Lowman let out a loud scream and Happy rocked her slightly, "Her mom didn't want her." He growled back and the woman backed away at the venomous sound of his voice, "I gotcha girl. Relax." Happy whispered as he held her against his chest her headband covered head against his neck.
Happy walked around the aisles glaring at any of the kids that looked his way, "Sucks that you're to young for juice." He told his girl then walked to the counter waiting in line.
"50 on 10." Happy said then pulling out fifty dollars from his wallet which was difficult, "First time dad?" The cashier asked in a soft voice, she was a woman about early twenties maybe, short chin length dark brown hair, metal framed glasses with brown eyes hiding behind them, the sun making them look slightly orange. "Yeah." She nodded her head, "Yeah my brother and his girlfriend just had their first kids...set of twins." She laughed and Happy smirked, "Damn.
"She's beautiful how old is she." The woman smiled and gave a little wave making his daughter coo and squirm in his arms, "Hi." She laughed, "She was two weeks premature but she's a month old now." Happy said poking his girl's cheek. "I was two months premie." She scrunched up her face, "But she's a beauty." She smiled then gave another wave, "Oh I'm sorry, uh you said 50 on 10 right. Sorry bout that." She gasped.
Happy;s eyes glanced down to her name tag and he nodded then smirked as his eyes met hers, "No problem baby." He winked before he turned to walk out the door then to his truck were he put his daughter in her car seat. Happy filled up the truck quickly then drove to his mother's house chuckling when he noticed his mom sitting on her porch. "Okay baby girl, let's go see abuelita." He said as he parked.
Happy stepped out of the truck then went to the other door, noticing that his ma kept trying to see what he was doing. "She's probably going to be pissed for a bit but don't worry ma will love ya."
Happy picked up his daughter out of the car seat and grabbed the diaper bag and another, which he filled with clothes that he was going to leave here for when she visits. Carrying his daughter he made his way to his childhood home, his heart swelling with old memories, "H-Happy what...is that?" His mother didn't even know were to start.
"It's a baby mom." He said when he stopped in front of her, "It's my baby ma. This is my daughter." The woman covered her mouth as she felt tears well up in her old eyes, "No." Rosa, Happy's mother, gasped and Happy nodded his head, "Guess I wasn't to careful. Took a DNA test ma...she's mine."
Rosa felt some tears fall down her cheek as she looked at the little baby, her skin a lighter shade of Happy's, short dark hair and brown eyes, "This is my grand daughter...I'm a grandmother."
"Yeah, you're a grandma." Rosa wiped her eyes and looked up at her son, "How?"
"Well me and this chick..." Happy started and Rosa slapped his arm sharply and glared, "Oh don't be a smart ass." He chuckled and his daughter whined. "I'll tell you inside, she's hungry."
"How could a woman just leave a baby out in the open?" Rosa asked as she patted her granddaughter's back, "Come on baby, burp for abuela (grandmother)." As if she knew she let out a deep burp making Rosa smile. "So you haven't thought of a name?"
"Have a few but I don't really like them." He grunted as he leaned back into the couch. "What about Malinda?" Rosa offered and Happy shook his head. "Or Selena...don't like that either...hmm maybe Kataline"
"I don't know ma." Happy said, "You think you could watch her I haven't had any sleep."
Rosa let out a laugh, "Sure baby." Happy leaned down and kissed both woman on the head, "In thirty minutes there is a prescription that she has to take for her cold. I don't think she'll need it I haven't heard her wheezing or coughing but just I case ya know."
"Alright hun, you go get some sleep I'll wake you up when dinner's done. Love you baby." Rosa called and cradled her new granddaughter, "¿Qué tal un amor canción? (How about a song sweetheart?)"
"Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer's ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds
And drives away his fear
Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for ev'ryone
And there's a cross for me"
Happy watched as his mother sang to his child and that's when it hit him...when everything finally hit him. He was a dad, a single father that would be raising a kid all on his own...but he'd have the help of the club which felt nice to have that extra support. It scared him that he was scared to raise his daughter but I mean who could blame him, it wasn't just him anymore that he would have to worry about. It was him and his little girl, meaning there was another mouth to feed, another body to clothe, another person to protect. A baby was a big deal and he doesn't understand why he didn't see the seriousness of this situation sooner.
What if he was a bad father? What if he was like his father? No. No he'd never be like his father, he would swear to never put his hands on his child the way his father did to him, he swore to never abandon her. When shit got tough he wasn't going to leave her. He had to be stronger than he was, not for him but for her. He wouldn't be alone in his house anymore, he had her and he wouldn't be able to come home at four in the morning with a crow because he had her. Those thoughts were over whelming but he had to man up for her, for his child...the thought made him a little mad that his dad didn't do the same for him. Happy wasn't gonna miss a thing, not her first steps or first words, first date or dance, nah he wasn't going to miss a thing.
It was around 6:30 when Rosa knocked on Happy's door, he bolted upright opening the door quickly, "Is she alright?"
Rosa smiled softly and raised the baby in her arms, "We just came to wake you up for dinner. She woke up from her nap about ten minutes ago." Rosa informed and Happy nodded as he sighed, his hand going to stroke her cheek as she sucked on her bo-bo. Her brown eyes staring at him with the intensity that he usually stares at others with, "Symphony." He whispered so low that he barely heard himself say it.
"What was that baby?" Rosa asked, "Her name, Symphony." Rosa smiled then looked down at her grand-baby, "Well Symphony let's give daddy a minute huh?" He heard his mom hum as they walked down the hall and into the kitchen, leaving him alone to put on a shirt and grab his phone.
"Symphony. I like that name I wonder were he came up with that." He heard his ma say to his daughter as she walked around bouncing his daughter. "Might have to give you some tummy time."
"Yeah I brought a blanket for her." Happy said as moved the coffee table and replace it with a blanket. "Come here baby girl." Happy said as he picked up his princess, "Where did you come up with that name?" Rosa asked as she watched her son bounce his daughter gently, her head cradled underneath his chin. Little hands poked at his chest making him kiss her head softly, "A chick I met today had that name and I thought it was nice. What you don't like it?" He asked as he knelt down placing his daughter on her stomach.
"No I think it's a pretty name for a pretty girl." She smiled, "I'll go get your food hon." She said and Happy sat on the floor with his back against the couch.
"You're liftin' your head really good baby." Happy smiled as he put his hand in front of her, her fingers grabbing his with a coo and squeal. He moved his hand back and she reached her hands out to grab his, lifting her head, "Good job." He said and she let out a sharp squeal as she slapped her hands on the ground.
"You know I need to take pictures later with the both of you." Rosa stated as she walked over with two plates in her hands, "Let's turn you over baby." Happy mumbled and rolled Symphony gently onto her stomach, then took his plate of food. "Thanks ma."
I ended up changing her name sorry, to however liked it before lol
