At The Hospital

Omniscient

Monique, Mariah, Ahmad, Anya, Amya, Monasia, Andre, and C-Brazy were all sitting in the waiting room waiting for a doctor to come tell them how August and Jaylianna were doing. 

Monique was panicking.  She continued to shake as tears streamed down her face.  She knew in this moment that she needed to get right with August.  She knew in this moment how much she truly was in love with him and how she just can't loose him. 

"Monique, baby I need you to calm down." Monasia said, but Monique wasn't hearing anything anyone had to say.  Her focus was on August and her daughter.

"Nurse, I've been waiting for 30 fucking minutes.  DO YOU HAVE ANY UPDATE ON AUGUST AND JAYLIANNA ALSINA?" Monique yelled at the nurse.

"And who are you? The nurse asked Monique.

"IM HIS WIFE AND THE MOTHER OF JAYLIANNA." Monique yelled at the nurse. 

"They are still in surgery ma'am, but trust me, we are trying to get updates as well." The nurse said. 

Monique walked back to her seat, and buried her face into her hands.  The thought of loosing her first love and her daughter drove Monique into a crazy person.  Mariah rubbed her back as Monique cried and cried. 

"Who the fuck would do this?" Monique said.

"We don't know Monique." Ahmad sighed.

"BRUH WHAT THE FUCKKKKKKKKKK!" Monique yelled as her right leg kept shaking faster and faster. 

Mariah grabbed Monique, and she took her outside to catch some breath.  Monique began to pace back and forth, and just then Jerome, Tatianna, and Akira all walked towards them.  Jerome hugged Monique as Tatianna hugged Mariah. 

"How are they?" Jerome asked Mariah as he hugged her.

"The fucking nurse didn't say.  Her bitch ass wanna have an attitude with people." Monique said angrily.  "I need a fucking blunt!"

"Monique, you can't smoke your problems away baby." Mariah said as she rubbed Monique's back. 

"I'm sorry, I didn't get your name baby." Mariah said to Akira.

"Oh, I'm Akira.  I'm Monique's friend from California.  I just moved down here a few weeks ago.  Monique is like a big sister to me, and I had to come when she told me the news." Akira said.

"It's nice to meet you Akira, I'm Mariah.  I'm Monique's mother." Mariah said.

"Nice to meet you." Akira said, and Mariah smiled. 

"Come on dad, lets go inside and see if they have any update." Tatianna said.  She kneed down onto Monique's level, and she hugged her. 

"They gone get through this sis.  Pray!" Tatianna said. 

Once they left, Akira decided to go inside as well while Mariah and Monique stayed outside.  Mariah sat down beside Monique, and put her arm around her shoulder as Monique just laid her head on her mother's shoulder.

"Monique, I'm sorry.  I love you too damn much to continue to let this foolishness go on between us.  The whole entire I was mad is because the shit you did, I realized I did it too, and til this day, I can't move on from it." Mariah said, and Monique looked up at her mother.

"But-"

"Let me explain.  I could've came to see you.  But I didn't.  I let all the money I was getting get inside my head to the point, I was thinking about myself and not you, and Monique I'm sorry.  I live in regret every single day about it.  I know you said you forgave me, but I haven't forgiven myself and I have to live with that and I have to move on.  Monique, I love you and I'll never do anything to hurt you ever again!  I mean that baby." Mariah said wiping her tears. 

"Maaaa." Monique sobbed.  "I love you too!  Look at me mama, FORGIVE YOURSELF.  I've forgiven you a long time ago, and I've forgiven myself about the mistakes I made.  I still think about what I've done each and every day, and I live with it my own self.  But regardless, we are going to get through this together.  I'm just glad I got my family back." Monique said hugging her mother. 

The two talked for about a hour and half before the doctor came into the room to let everybody know about what's going on. 

"Family of August and Jaylianna Alsina." The doctor said, and Monique and Mariah both walked back inside the hospital. 

"Doc, please tell me something good." Monique begged.

"Good news is that the two are going to be alright.  Your daughter was shot in the leg, and we removed the bullet out of her body.  It was a hard procedure, but we got the job done." The doctor smiled.

"OH THANK GOD!" Mariah said.

"What about August?" Monique asked, and the doctor smile faded away.

"August is paralyzed from the neck down.  Whoever shot August used some type of bullet that had some type of narcotics mixed with heavy drugs inside the bullet.  Meaning, that when he was shot, the drugs somehow made it inside his body.  Now, we did remove the bullet, so that's a good thing, but August is in a coma, and we don't know if he's going to wake up.  If Mr. Alsina does wake up, he won't be able to walk again.  I'm sorry." The doctor said before sighing and walking away slowly. 

"We won't believe that! My God has the last say so.  He will walk!" Monasia preached. 

Monique cried into Andre's chest, while Akira and Tatianna rubbed her back.  Once she picked her head up, she shook her head and then she looked at her mama and hugged her. 

Everybody decided to pray before going home.  Monique, Akira, Ahmad, and Tatianna all decided to stay at the hospital.  Monique didn't want to go home.  She prayed and prayed that when August wakes up, he'll be able to walk again. 

"Monique, August is going to walk again." Akira said. 

"Monique Alsina?" The nurse called Monique, and she got up.

"You can go see him." She said and the nurse gave her the room number. 

When Monique walked to August room, she saw him.  Her eyes got teary and she walked inside his room slowly.  She sat in the chair beside his bed, and looked at him. 

"August......" Monique said shaking her head while crying.  "I know you can't hear me but I need to get this off my chest.  August, I love you and I'm still in love with you.  I can't stop thinking about everything that I've done and caused.  But August, we have to move on from everything because deep down inside, we know we want each other.  Its going to take time, but I'm willing to wait on us.  August, I don't care what you say, I'm going to help you get through this.  I'm going to help you walk again.  I'm going to help you get to where you need to be.  Regardless, I'm going to be here for you."

After Monique said what she said, she looked at August, and she kissed his lips and she told him she loved him, and she went to sleep.
