Chapter 28

JORDEN POV

"J-Jorden....it's too early! He shouldn't be coming right now!!" Kehlani yells frantically

"It's okay Lani. It's okay"
"I'm scared... how's Megan? The girls? W-What the fuck is happening!?!" She shouts frantically

The EMTs try to calm her down telling her to relax but she can't. With her pressure going up and her water already broken; they put an oxygen mask on her and start to wheel her out.

I look around at the chaos, trying to figure out where did it all go wrong. We were just happy! Taking pictures and now we're here Kehlani in early labor, Daze being arrested and Megan. Oh God! Megan; Megan was shot.

It's too much. I got the girls crying cause both of their moms are in pain and I can't do anything about it. I have to leave it all in the doctor's hands. I give both Nomi and Raelyn a hug and a kiss telling them it's going to be okay before they leave with my parents.

I get into my car as my brother drives us to the hospital. I just can't today.

"They gonna be alright J" he says
"I hope so man. I hope so...." I hope so I mumble desperately

Sitting here for about 3 hours waiting on any news about my girls. They say it's just a flesh wound for Megan so why they taking forever... They tried to stall Lani's labor but they couldn't; so it quickly became an emergency c section. Even though I was in the room with her the monitor started to go off crazy and I was quickly kicked out.

So I'm here wondering are they okay. Is the baby okay...I just don't know.

With Ruth next to me rubbing my back as Mama Holly went to get us some snacks in her words; but I know she's just yelling at the nurses trying to get some updates.

"You got two fighters Jorden. They're gonna be okay...knowing Megan she's gonna fight as hard as she can"

"I believe that Ruth. But oh my gosh this is so much! It's so much...like damn can we catch a fucking break!!" I semi shout loosing it

I cover my eyes as I feel tears start to form in my eyes, my phone goes off looking it's Kalyn.

"Any word? Your mom and I finally got the girls to sleep..."
"I don't know...I-I can't say. They kicked me out the operating room with Kehlani cause her p-pressure was going too high and it was just moving all too fast. That was three hours ago and still nothing. Kalyn....I'm scared. I'm scared, that it's all slipping from me. It's all leaving, and I don't want to be alone" I say with a scattered mind as I cry

Ruth hugs me embracing me into a tight hug as I cry.  I don't know how to feel, it's just all falling apart.

"It's all falling apart"
"Hey Jorden, you don't just have your parents, you have Holly and me. You have us all! You're not alone son. You're not alone" Ruth says giving me another hug making me cry

"Family of Megan Thorpe?"
"YES!!" Ruth and I shout standing up

I quickly wiped my eyes looking at the doctor that introduced herself to us.
"Surgery was a success. It wasn't major, the bullet did not pierce anything. It grazed her arm and left some bleeding but we controlled the bleeding. She did need five stitches, but she's good and waiting for you to see her. The only thing that took us some time was calming her down. Even under anesthesia she was fighting mumbling Kehlani..."

"Oh thank God! Thank you for this"
"Yes thank you. But do you know any news on Kehlani. Kehlani Parrish?"

"I'm sorry I don't. I was just over the care of Megan... would you like to see her?"
