Keegan was so bored of the hospital now, he wanted to leave and go home and get right into the thick of things as he normally would. He paced his room, and as he did he heard the door open and looked up to see Nash walking in. He stared at him, and Nash returned the stare.
"What the fuck do you want?.." Keegan said, his lip curled.

"To talk... to just set things straight...

"Ion wanna talk to you...

"Keegan.." he sighed. "You know I'm gonna save yo ass like I always do.. you know despite everything I am always here...and I don't want you to die.." he mumbled.

Keegan arced his ear with his hand. "You what.. I didn't hear that last bit?.."

"You heard me."

"Unc.. You actually sound like you care...

"Maybe I do... a lil..." he said pinching his fingers together.

"Okay.. so why fuck with C.. why do that to me?."

"I can't change the past okay.. all I know is, she is addictive... and I needed her... but I'm over it.. she will always be special to me.. but that's where it stays...

"Before I could get up in her." He said quietly. "See, we never fucked...
Keegan's chin wobbled and Nash could see how hurt, deeply hurt that he was.

"I lost her... you don't know how that feels... my hurt over you two made me almost kill her... cos I couldn't take it..."

"But you also know that you had a part to play in her running to me in the first place right?.."

Keegan nodded. "I know I have fucked up with her numerous times... but she is my whole world.. I just wish I knew how to treat her.." he looked at his uncle. "How do I treat her right?."

"She doesn't need to be kept in place, she is right there with you... you don't need other women... not when you have her and you know that too... but every time you hit her, degrade her, speak like it's okay for you to have all the women you want... you are taking away a piece of that love she has for you every time... there is only so much any human being can take before they completely break... And you know you have broken her so many times.." Nash told him. "She's a simple life kinda girl... she wants a man who loves her, kids, she needs family... And she has so much love to give you just have to ease up... Relax into it. Take it day by day and then day by day will become month by month and year by year... because you're meant to be together... this shit between you is crazy and it has gone on for too long... But truly Keegan, you are the only one who can change the narrative here no one else can do it, but you.."
