Amina Pov

Nate opened the door for us. I walked in and couldn't bare the sight. She had all these wires coming in and out of her. She looked really sick. I really felt for her. I sat down on the couch because her mom had taken the chair by her bed. I just sat there thinking who could've done this.

Nathan Pov

Whoever caused this, is going to pay. They did this to Mo. I hate to see her look like this. She did nothing to deserve this. I'm gonna make sure she gets justice. I walk out and go up to the front desk. I ask the secretary there where Monique was brought in from. She types in her computer a bit before saying,

"Uh, from this report she was brought in from 820 Anderson Avenue. And it was reported that there is an ongoing investigation there."

"Thanks"

I head back up to Mo's room. I walk inside and tell Mina and Momma H that I'm gonna head out but I'll be back. Momma H looks at me and then nods her head, while going back to looking at her daughter.

"Where you going babe?" Mina walked up to me and asked.

"I'm just going to clear my head."

"Okay, I'm coming with." She said while gathering her things.

"No, stay here. I need to be alone."

"Why can't I come with you?"

"I need you to stay with Momma H. Now stay here. I'll be back, damn."
She really starting to frustrate me. I just want to go visit where Mo was probably shot at. That's an environment that I don't think she's ready for yet.

She looks at me first with wide eyes then her eyes displayed straight anger.
"Go to wherever the hell you gotta go. Don't come back either." She then went to her previous placement on the couch and sat with an angry pout just looking out the window.

I sigh and give her one last look before heading out to this place.

Travis Pov

As we came in the room, my dad went to the side of Tre's hospital bed. I went and sat on the nearby couch. My father stared at Trevaughn before speaking.

"I told you to leave those girls alone. Now look at where ya dumb ass is at. I try to lead you away from this shit. You need to wake your ass up so I can knock ya right back out again for not listening to me." He pauses and sighs. "I need you to wake up, your mother left me alone with you guys, I don't need you leaving me too." He sniffs and quickly wipes away a tear while walking out of the door.

I sat there for a minute just letting everything sink in. I walk up to his bed. "I don't know if you can hear me but you gotta wake up for dad. He needs you, he may be hard on you but that's only because he actually gives a shit about you. I'll see you later."

I was about to do our special handshake we made up when we was kids, when I realized he couldnt do his part. I instantly frown and bit my lip. My vision gets blurry. I blinked quickly to wash the tears away. Men dont cry. Why did it have to be my brother?

A week and a half later........

Trevaughn Pov

I wake up to bright lights and a white room. I hear movement and look to my left. It was a nurse and she was bad as fuck. She was checking my monitor. I don't think she noticed I'm awake.

"How did I get here?"

She jumped before replying "Someone called the ambulance for you. You came in with another patient who is currently here."
