We been staying with Mook for the past week but he's been acting real distant. It's weird because that nigga normally always down my back.

"I love you guys" I said kissing Maliki and Adriana's cheek.

"We love you too" They said at the same time.

"I'll be back as soon as I can" I zipped up my sweater then rushed out the house before I was late to work.

I locked the door of the salon and made my way towards my car. It was dark out and I ended up having to work later than I was supposed to.

I felt a presence behind me and turned around but all I felt was a sharp pain going through my stomach. At that moment all I could think about was that my kids would be okay no matter if I make it or not. I was struggling to keep my eyes open and my shirt was soaked with blood , it was hard for me to breath and next thing I know everything was dark.

Maliki

I sat in the waiting room of the hospital with tears falling every now and then, Adriana had her head on my shoulder balling her eyes out. I looked down at her as she started to choke on her spit.

"Calm down Adriana mom is gone be okay" I whispered rubbing her back.

"I can't loose her Maliki"

"She's not going anywhere so don't worry about that"

Before she could say anything else the doctor came out and called us over.

"London was shot twice in the stomach , we were able to get the bullets out but of course that means she lost a lot of blood, she's in a coma right now but we're not for sure when or if she will wake up"

Adriana clung on to me crying , Eli punched the wall and I could of swore I seen a tear fall out of Uncle Mooks eye as he comforted Liana.

I didn't know what to think right now there was so many different things running through my mind but the main thing that kept popping in my head is finding out who shot my mom.

"I can't sleep" Adriana said walking into the back yard were I was sitting on the trampoline.

"Me either" I said continuing to stare off into space.

She climbed on the trampoline and sat next to me. "Uncle Mook left with Anthony , Montana and Derrick" She said about our cousins who are Uncle Mooks kids.

"Liana ain't leave with them" I asked.

"Nope" She shook her head.

I sat quiet thinking of why they would leave at 2 in the morning.

"Do you think moms gonna make it" She asked.

I looked over to her to see her looking down "To be honest with you I don't know but Ma a fighter so I'm sure she gone pull through"

She didn't say anything as she continued to look down. "Cheer up lil ugly" I bumped her with my shoulder.

"Shut up" She smiled.

"Mali" My uncle shook me out of my sleep.

"What" I mumbled with my eyes still closed.
