Nicki&thePips

Chapter 55

It was the second time within twenty-four hours, all of the kids were at the hospital.

Princeton was in intensive care and according to the nurses that were going in and out of his room things for him didn't look very good.

An hour later, when it was about three in the morning, a doctor, along with Dr. Green came out with news.

"Ms. Minaj." The male doctor spoke solemnly. "We have some news."

Nicki who was dosing in one of the chairs with a tear streaked face groggily got to her feet. "Lay it on me guys . . . I can take it."

"He's alive . . ." Dr. Green started deciding on giving the best news first. "But . . ." She couldn't say it. She'd been so close to the familily for the past few days. It was hard to see Princeton like this even after everything he did to the others. He really was a sweet kid.

"He needs further surgery that we can't do here." The other doctor said. "He has severe head trauma and has seemed to have lost vision in one eye. He can't seem to move his legs and his face is pretty much deformed. It may take months to get him to a suitable point where he can begin therapy to get him back to near normalcy. We suggest a specialist in germany."

Nicki couldn't believe her ears. Princeton, if he was lucky wouldn't be okay for months. She was going to have to send him away for treatment. His face needed to be reconstructed. She took a deep breath. "Oh . . . thank you guys."

"We shall keep him here for a few more weeks and I will personally call the german specialist. Hopefully, with some strength and support though he should make a full recovery in eight months. He may never look the same though."

"Eight months?" Nicki said as tears started running from her eyes. She nodded bravely. "Okay thanks." She couldn't believe this. She needed to go back on her promotion tour. She was scheduled to start the Pink Print European tour in November right after the album dropped. Where would she put the kids? How would she keep close to Princeton? She felt like she was the worst mother ever.

Another doctor came up to her. "Miss Minaj? Your daughter Jade seems to be fine . . . it seems she passed out because of a lack of oxygen. She possibly had a panic attack. But she's awake now."

Nicki nodded. "Thank you so much." With how worried she was about Princeton she almost forgot that Jade had fainted during everything. "Can I see her?" Nicki asked.

"Sure. She's free to go. I'll just go get her." The doctor left.

Nicki sighed. She turned to look at the other kids. Prodigy and Roc Royal were both shaking and staring at the ground. They looked terrified. Ray Ray was holding Perrie in his lap. He looked sad but didn't seem the slightest bit upset with the girl in his lap. Perrie had her thumb in her mouth and seemed to be fast asleep. Nicki was almost angry at her for being able to fall asleep while everyone else seemed scarred for life. But she remembered Perrie's face after she slapped her . . . It was impossible to stay mad at her.

Leigh-Anne's eyes were glazed over. She looked just as depressed as Ray Ray. What worried Nicki most was the fact that she wasn't looking at Jesy. And well Jesy looked kind of . . . horrible. Jesy was hugging her body as if she was cold. Her teeth were chattering and her gaze was glued to the ground. It was like she was frozen or freezing.

"Here she is." The doctor was back, holding Jade's hand.

Nicki tried to smile at Jade who was still in her neckbrace. "Hi Jadey."

Jade waved shortly with her free hand not really bothering to look at Nicki. Her eyes seemed more intent on the floor. She looked even more depressed than the others.
