I woke up to my phone buzzing at 3 in the morning. It was an unknown number so I got scared, but still answered.
"Hello?"
"Is this Ms. Jade Johnson?" some lady said
"This is she. May I ask who is calling and for what reason?"
"Hi, I'm the receptionist from Dekalb Medical and i'm sorry to tell you this but your friend Micaela was in a serious car accident and is in critical condition."
I was so scared and shocked I didn't say or move. I just sat there.
"Hello?"
"Umm.. yes. I'll be there as soon as possible." I said hanging up
I cried running to Ryan's room. I knew she was gonna take this better than I was so she would have to drive.
"Ryan. Ryan. Wake up!" I said crying
She rubbed her eyes and said, "What is it?"
"We have to go to the hospital because Micaela got into a serious car accident and the lady said she was in critical condition and God know--"
"Woah slow down Jade. Come on, get ready and let's go"
I nodded my head and ran to my room to get a jacket. I slipped my uggs on and I was ready to go. Ryan was already downstairs leaving to get ready to drive. She started the car while I was locking the door.
"Hurry up!" she yelled
I ran to the car and right when I closed the door Ryan drove off.
"Now, slowly explain what happen." she said
"Some lady called from Dekalb Medical and said Micaela got into a car accident. She said she's in critical condition but she didn't mention anything about the baby." I said, letting a few tears fall down
"It's ok. Stop crying, she's a fighter so don't give up." Ryan said
I nodded my head. I realized how much she can make me mad but at the end of the day, that's like fam. Never give up on them. I looked up and realized we were at the hospital.
"Damn Ryan. How fast did you drive?" I asked
She chuckled, "Obviously not fast enough for the police to give me a ticket."
We parked the car and ran inside the hospital. I saw some lady with all white on sitting at the reception desk.
"Hi. We're looking for Micaela Hawkins. She was in a car accident." I said
(AN: s/o to Micaela for the last name)"Oh yes. Room 324." she said
"Thank you." I said running down the hall with Ryan to the elevator
We got to the elevator and I wanted to throw up. I don't like hospitals at all. Only thing I smell is death, tbh. We got to the third floor and I started running.
319..
320..
321..
322..
323..
324..
When we got to the room, Ryan held my hand. I could tell she was scared as fuck because she was tryna control her tears.
"Don't worry, remember what you told me." I said
I knocked on the door and didn't wait for a respond. I just went right in and saw her hooked up to all these machines. I cried silently but really hard. We walked in and saw a doctor.
"Good morning ladies. I'm Doctor Parker. I'm assuming you too ladies are really good friends of Ms. Hawkins?" she said
"Yes ma'am. How is she?" I said
Dr. Parker looked at the ground and said, "I have good and bad news."
"Bad news first." Ryan said
"Well.. Ms. Hawkins was pregnant and unfortunately, the baby didn't make it." she said.
Ryan cried hard into my shoulder and cried into hers.
"The good news is that she is ok and will be released at 10 am. If she is traveling, I would suggest you make sure she has her inhaler and her medication."
I nodded my head and said, "Thank you."
She nodded her head and walked out. I texted August and told him everything that happen. He text back saying he was coming.
"You think she knows about the baby?" Ryan asked
I shrugged my shoulders, "I don't know. Let's just pray she won't take it as bad as we both think she will."
She nodded her head and fell asleep on my shoulder. I was trying to sleep, but I couldn't. If she woke up, would she remember us? Would she already know about the baby?
I heard a knock at the door, and said, "Come in."
"Hey bae." August said, with Tre, Colin, and surprisingly Rashad with him.
"Hey. Tre come here and let Ryan sleep on you." I whispered
He nodded his head and took my spot. I walked over to August and hugged him. I cried into his shoulder and he hugged me tightly.
"She's going to get through this. Don't worry ma. All of us will be here for all of you." he said in my ear
"I love you." I said in his shirt
"I love you too. Now sit down and get some sleep." he said
I nodded and sat on the other side of Ryan. August sat next to me as my pillow and he gave me his jacket to use as his blanket. I fell asleep hoping I would wake up to a better day.
