"I fought for you the hardest
It made me the strongest
So tell me your secrets
I just can stand to see you leaving
But heaven couldn't wait for you
But heaven couldn't wait for you
We laughed at the darkness
so scared that we lost it we stood on the ceilings
You showed me love was all you needed
But heaven couldn't wait for you." Beyonce~Heaven

We all rushed up to the short woman hoping for good news.

"How is she doc?" Amod said lifting his eyebrows.

"Well she suffered a major blow to the head assuming she was hit or she fell from a pretty large height and this caused the back of the brain to swell so we had to induce a coma so there would be no problem with the way her brain functions and allowing it to properly and hopefully heal. Though this could be helpful it's always a chance that while in the coma she can become brain dead and possibly slip away. Her shoulder dislocated also due to most likely a large fall but that is a minor issue. One of her ribs were broken due to a blow. Right now she's stable but only time could tell."

"W-what can we do? I-is it money what is it...you gotta help her." I said taking out a band of money placing it in her hands.

"Sir I promise that We'll do all we can."

"Can we see her?" She nodded

"Yes but one at a time?"

"You can go first man." Cole said patting my back.

I nodded and I could see Erica rolling her eyes but I can literally give no fucks about how she was feeling. This was about my sister and my Nene.

I followed the doctor to Journey's room and she smiled before walking away. I took a deep breath before walking into the room.

Now that there was less things going on I could really examine her face. Her once flawless skin looked tired and aged. Her cheek had a dark purple bruise that stopped below her jaw. Her right eye was swollen and black and purple outlined it. Her lips looked cut and scratched. Besides all of that she looked peaceful as she slept. I but my lip trying not to cry. My heart hurt for her. She was such a good girl and she's been through so much since she been here. Since we were little I had protected her and I failed her the times it counted the most. I grabbed her hand and kissed it.

"Journey I love you so much. I always did and I always will. I'm so sorry that I let this happen to you baby I'm so sorry." I got a little choked up but I continued.

"I don't deserve the beauty and perfection that is you but you got my heart ma. I need you to pull through man you gotta I need you so much I'm sorry that I've hurt you and and I know that in a way this is my fault but I love you too much for you to leave me like this." I kissed her forehead and gently moved her hair out of her face.

I hated seeing her like this but I was gonna get revenge. It wasn't just the That one man. It was more and I was out for blood.

"I love you Journey." Was all I said before I walked out.

Journey

I heard him. I could hear everything he was saying and as much as I wanted to squeeze his hand and say that I loved him too I couldn't. I couldn't move I couldn't speak and I couldn't smell anything. I was in a dark room but I could hear him. What was happening? I was fine. I got out that house. I could hear Javon's voice so that means they saved me so why was he crying? Why is he saying not to leave him? I would never leave him. I could hear the hurt in his voice and as much as I wanted to hug him and tell him that I was fine I couldn't. He's hurt me so much but I killed me to hear him like this. I heard him say he loved me and then there was silence.

I love you too Javon.

I walked into the waiting room and all eyes were on me. I knew that we were all going through this shit but I felt uncomfortable. I could see Cole wiping his face and Marcus looking down but why were they acting like this now? Blake looked at me with so much sympathy it was scary.

"This shit too much man. I see yall later. J I'm so sorry man." He said looking at me with so much sorrow yet I couldn't understand why.

Everyone was extremely sad about Journey but things seemed to go from bad to worst since I went into her room.

"Wassup yall?" I said looking at all of their faces yet they looked down when our eyes met.

"She's gone" Cole said looking at me.

"I just came from her room she good." I chuckled dryly I was confused.

"Nah man...Liyah she gone."

"No she's not" I said with my voice shaking.

"Javon man-"

"She not fucking gone man!" I yelled getting the attention from the other people in the waiting room.

He just stared at me with sympathy.

"My sister man... My little sister." I pulled at my hair feeling anger building up.

Cole ran up to me wrapping his arm around me pulling me into a hug.

"I'm so sorry bruh."

"This shit ain't fair man. My little sister man. She was all I had left." I said as I cried into his shoulder.

Usually I wouldn't be up for the comforting shit but Cole was my brother and I was at my weakest state.

"Man you a fighter man you got this Aaliyah gone but you gotta be strong for us and Journey it's all in gods plan so leave it in his hands there's nothing more we could do but leave it to him."

If it's not one thing it's the next.
