Picture of Kennedy at the top

Kennedy

I just don't understand. How? Why? It doesn't run in my family. Not that I know of. Why me? I would take being pregnant than having cancer. The doctor left leaving me to mourn. Elijah then came in.

"What did-what's wrong baby?" He asked coming to hug me.

"Where Li?" I sniffed.

"She's sitting in the waiting room. What's wrong baby is everything good?" He asked.

I shook my head.

"Talk to me ma. Tell me what's wrong."

"I h-have cancer." I said just above a whisper.

"You what?" He said frowning and looking confused.

"I have breast cancer."

His face soften and he looked at in awe.

"Baby...damn...I'm so sorry Kennedy." He said holding me tightly. I cried into his chest. I couldn't take it.

"Baby don't..don't do that." He said grabbing my face. "Don't. You and me both know that your a fighter. Don't even began to think that you will lose this battle because you haven't lost one yet and your not going to start now. I'm putting on my armor and I'm fighting with you. We......we got this. Me and you! We are going to be win this. You hear me?" He said holding my face and looking into my eyes.

I nodded my head. He kissed my lips over and over.

I can't lose. I won't.

Elijah

As we drove home. I couldn't stop looking over at Kennedy. My baby has cancer man. Fucking cancer. In that moment my eyes started to sting. I gripped the stirring wheel trying to keep the tears from falling. On top of all this. I need to find out what the fuck has gotten into him for him to put his hands on Li.

Princeton

I kept sending mama to voice mail because I didn't want to hear anything she had to say. She been lying to me my whole life. I wonder who my real father is. Might wanna find him one day.

I pulled up at Cali's hotel. I didn't wanna go anywhere else so I decided to come here. I texted her before getting out.

(1:15 a.m)-Cali😉💋: You woke?

It's kind of late and she didn't respond so I figure she would be sleep. I grabbed my gym bag and hopped out. I locked my truck while walking away.

I got on the elevator pushing the number floor she was on. After I got there I head to her door stopping right in front of it. I was still frustrated and pissed and I know it showed on my face. I thought about just using my card and walking in but she might be woke so I knocked. She didn't answer. I pulled out my key card and was about to put it in the slot until I heard the locks. I put my hand down as she opened the door.

"Hey..what are you doing back here?" She said. She was dressed in a big jersey shirt with only that on and long tube socks. With her hair down falling over her shoulders and down her back.

"Um.." I started as I rubbed my hand on the back of my neck. "I was just wondering if I could crash here for the night. I'm not trying to be at home right now."

"Why? Is everything ok?" She asked letting me in. I stepped inside stopping at the door as she closed it.

"Na but I don't really wanna talk about it."
