I slept overnight in the hospital to make sure Brandon was going to be okay and I talk to the policemen about my mother being missing but all they said was I have to wait until it's been 24 hours before they can go into investigation but nothing is really making sense to me like who would want my mother? This time I couldn't even get mad because my mother didn't run away this time someone snatched her "ma'am you can go in the room now" the doctors said. "I walk in the room to see Brandon laying in the bed he started to smile at me as bad as I wanted to smile back I just couldn't my mother was still on my mind and I really need to find her but I still got a little side track by   those beautiful dimples of his just brought a little joy to my heart. "Hey Brit Brit" he said smiling.
"Hey how you feeling?" I said with a little grin. "I'm in a little pain but I feel so much better seeing you" he said smiling. "that's good" I said grinning then taking the grin off my face. "Brit baby what's wrong you don't look okay you look so worried?" he said trying to sit up a little.
"I mean how could nothing be worried my mother's missing and this time it wasn't cause she ran away some one took her from me like I don't know where to start" I said beginning to stress  all over again. "Look baby I know your worried I know your concern and you have all rights to be but we can't do much I told you what I saw I'm sorry baby I swear I tried to fight but I was kick and punched and when I tried to  protect your mother I was shot , the man that looked like you said something to me after shooting me" he said:.
"what did he say?" I said getting nervous. "He said tell her I came to get  what's mine he look like he could be your father Brit is he alive?" he said looking at me curiously.  Damn all I could do is just look at Brandon how could I be so stupid once again it never hit me til now when my father said those words to me before leaving me at the age of 17 "Brittany when I find your mother I'm going to kill her" I never knew why he wanted to kill her but all these thoughts running through my head makes me wonder now why did my mother leave every time I brought her to my house? why did she always take money from me? And if it is my father behind all this how did he know where I was living now? Did my mother set me up to be killed? I thought to myself. "Baby you okay talk to me?" he said. "Yes I'm okay " I said.  "what you thinking about ?" he said. "Brandon I think my father might behind this and my mother's  helping him" I said. "wait before you cut to conclusion how would you know, your not for sure just yet baby I could of just saw a man  that had little features like you but he might not even be related to you" he said rubbing my back. "Brit when we get home we're not gonna think so hard on it okay?" he said. "How could we live there there's blood on the rugs and couches?" I said "I'll have them be removed and more be put down c'mon you gotta calm down a little bit Brit you stressing way to hard everything's gonna be okay"  he said pulling close to him to slay with him on the hospital bed. Maybe he's right maybe I'm blowing this up out of proportion maybe it wasn't even my dad shit if anything he might of died I wouldn't know but either way you wanna put it someone still took my mother and I still gotta find her but for right now I'm going to calm down just like Brandon ask " I guess I gotta wait 24 hour's huh? I ask feeling some type of way. "No we're gonna do it my way" he said closing his eyes rubbing his hands through my hair. "Your way, what's your way?" I said feeling curious. "Brit Brit baby what did I say?" he said. "Calm down" I said. what's his way? I hope it doesn't have to do with killing cause I'm now down with that I mean I love my mother but I refuse to put my life at risk "relax I say to myself as fall asleep In Brandon's arm.
