"Unfortunately we have some bad news"
Destiny's heart dropped at the nurse's announcement. Tears began to Poole in Destiny's eyes.
"Oh god" Destiny cried.
"He's dead?" Monica asked.
"No but there have experienced some difficulties during his surgery" she explained, "he had gunshots on his left arm and upper chest. The wound on his chest was a few inches away his heart, so he could've died on the scene, luckily he didn't"
"Okay and what about his arm?" Destiny asked.
"The wound in his arm was a through and through which means the bullet isn't—" the nurse was cut off by Kaiser.
"Dessy?" His small voice sounded cause destiny and Monica to look at the boy.
"Yes honey?"
"I am hungry" he spoke, rubbing his eye.
"Can you give me a minute or do you have to go now?"
"Now"
Destiny sighed before tying her hair in a bun, "alright come on"
"I'll take him, you stay" Monica said.
"Are you sure, I can take him"
"No you need to know what's going on—and it's no big deal, that's my grandbaby" Monica grabbed Kaiser's hand.
"Thank you Ms. Monica" Destiny smiled.
She turned back to the nurse, "I'm sorry about that can you continue please?"
"Yes as I was saying, the wound in his arm was a through and through which means the bullet isn't in his arm anymore—however when the bullet hit, it might've cause his arm function some issues but we're trying to recover everything"
"Okay—okay okay, so he's gonna make it right?"
"I cannot speak on that" the nurse said making Destiny sigh.
"Alright, thank you for the update, I really appreciate it" Destiny gave her a small smile but it fell once she nurse began to walk back into the double doors.
She sat down and called her therapist. She looked around the waiting room, something catching her attention. A crying woman, she must've just lost some someone.
"Hello this is banks and green doctors office, how may we help you?"
"Hello can I speak to doctor banks please"
"May I ask who's calling?"
"Destiny Lawrence, I'm one of her patients" she said wiping her eyes.
"Okay sit tight for one second"
"Hello this is doctor banks, how may I help you?"
"Doctors banks, this is Destiny Lawerence—I am calling to tell you that I can't make it to my appointment today, something came up"
"Is everything okay Destiny?"
"Yea um" her voice cracked, "actually no, everything is not okay, my boyfriend is in surgery—he got shot multiple times and I don't know if he's gonna make it so, I can't come today I'm sorry"
"No no no I understand completely, we can reschedule when you're ready"
"Thank you, I'll let you know when I can come in"
"Of course"
Destiny hung up the phone and felt her lip trembling. She bit her lip to stop the motion.
