Chapter 11
Can't count on you most of all when I really need it... Keri Hilson, "Promise In The Dark"
Warren turned his head away from Honaray as she walked out of the door closing it slowly behind her. Her words sat heavy on his heart and on his conscious. He closed his eyes and allowed the sounds of her last words dance in his thoughts as he tried to finally get the sleep he needed.

Honaray walked back up the hallway to one of the two elevators that was available. Malone didn’t cross her mind, once she thought about going back to her mother’s house for the night. She pressed the bright red button for her elevator of choice as she waited for it open. It was after 11pm, and the hospital had a crisp chill in the air that made her dislike the environment. Malone was on his way to her; little did she know and was on the elevator back to her.
Once the doors of the elevator came open and he saw Honaray’s worried face, he smiled at her even though her attention was focused more on the screen of her iPhone.
“What’s up my lil’ Michelin girl?” He joked as she walked into the elevator, still paying him no attention.
She rolled her eyes at his funny comment as she found the number to the cab service she was looking for on Google. She placed her phone on one of her ears underneath her wand curls, and waited for an answer from the cab service.
Malone looked at her confused as he heard her request for a cab in front of the hospital they were both leaving. Once Honaray took her phone away from her ear.
She asked, “So, how is your girl friend Talisha doing? You was so worried about her that you left my side like it wasn’t nothing to you.”
Malone ran his hand on top of his low cut tapered fade as he moved his head from left to right before he said, “How did I know you was going to bring up that shit? I’m sorry ‘Ray. I was trippin’ off of some shit, and don’t worry about catching that cab either. I’m bringing you home. Al’right?”
Honaray wanted to laugh at the weak game Malone used to try to get her where he wanted her. If he thought he was going to luck up in getting pussy tonight; he clearly had her mistaking for Talisha. She pouted her lips and thought to herself, Malone is such a fuckin’ joke.
She flipped her wand curls as the elevator came to the first floor and said,
”Malone, I’m leaving in the bright red cab that is probably already outside waiting for me. I am not going to entertain you and your need to drown in some pregnant pussy. I’m not for it tonight love, sorry.”
Malone watched Honaray walk with a sassy bounce that she gain to her walk since she became pregnant. He really wanted to make clear to her, what happened when he left her alone in the waiting room for Talisha. But making a scene in the hospital was the last way he wanted to end the night especially between him and Honaray.

Talisha looked into Raymond’s dark brown eyes and smiled as they walked back together to Casey’s room. She was thankful for him and his daughter Farea’ for being with her this moment in time. Once they walked into the room Mama Jingles stood up and placed one of her index fingers in Talisha’s face. Mama Jingles was shaken from Malone’s presence and felt as if Talisha had set her up for a confrontation that she was not ready for. Mama Jingles’s pushed slightly Talisha against the door that she just came through. She did not wanted to hear any smart bullshit comments from Talisha, and wanted to set the tone for her once again to not fuck with her.
