Nasir's Pov
"Get what done?" I repeated walking up to her as she stared at me with wide eyes.
"M-Mr. King, what are you doing here?" she asked looking around, ignoring her I crowded her space and backed her into the wall as I looked down at her.
"Get. What. Done?" I glared at her "Are you working for Annalise Moore?" at the mention of Annalise's name her eyes widened, and my hand wrapped around her throat before I could even stop myself. "What did she tell you to do?" I asked as she began to claw at my hand.
"S-stop, I-I can't-t b-breathe" she gasped, and I released her, and she slid down the wall coughing. "S-she wanted m-me to give her a lethal injection," she said looking up at me with tears in her eyes and my eyes widened remembering the nurse with the needle.
"You b!tch!!" I went to grab her but was stopped by ma's voice.
"Nasir? What's going on? The cops are here, they want to talk to you about what happened" she approached us looking at the doctor crying on the floor.
"She's working with Ana" I sighed glancing at ma, "she was going to inject Mo with some lethal drug".
"Oh my god" ma gasped covering her mouth.
"P-please, I'm sorry. I could lose my job for this" she cried looking between us. "You should have thought of that," I told her, lifting her off the floor and dragging her back to the room.
Entering the room, I was greeted by the two officers however, my attention was on Cairo who sat by the bed holding Mo's hand. "What is he doing here?"
"Now is not the time Nasir, he's her family too" ma stated, and I scoffed looking at the officers and began telling them what happened at the restaurant.
"She has something she'd like to say" I pushed the doctor forward and she tumbled over her feet before glaring at me.
"I don't have shit to say, so let me out this damn room" she looked at me with a smug look and I smirked.
"So you're going to play dumb?"
"I should be the one telling the cops how you strangled me in the hallway!!" she exclaimed and began sobbing.
"Sir-" the male officer began...
"S-she wanted m-me to give her a lethal injection" I played the recording and her head snapped up. "You still don't have anything to say doc?"
"You son of a b!tch, I should have killed that b!tch when I had the chance earlier. Can't stand her pathetic a-" her ranting was cut short as Ma'ryah attacked her, sending blows to her face and the officers had to pull her off. The commotion caused Monae to jump up as she looked around the room with wide eyes before her eyes settled on the doctor.
"Nika?" she looked at her confused.
Monae's Pov
Flashback
"Nae, what you doing in there so long?"
"I-I'll be out soon" I sighed looking down at the positive pregnancy test in my trembling hand before shoving it at the back of the drawer. Opening the door, I ran straight into Amr's chest. Looking up at him, I stumbled back as he glared at me.
"What were you doing?"
"Nothing, just using the washroom" I answered looking down. I could feel his gaze on me before he turned and began walking out of the bedroom.
