I was about to leave Luscious's house with Jamal, and Lance in tow when my phone started ringing like crazy. I dug in my purse, and pulled out my phone. I saw that it was from Crower Hospital. "What the hell do they want?" I asked right before answering the phone.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Cookie Lyon?" Somebody said on the other end.
"Yes this is she," I replied.
"We have Luscious Lyon down here at the hospital he's been shot we need to confirm that he can go into immediate surgery, he's loosing a lot of blood as we speak.
"We'll go ahead, Yes go on and start with the surgery me and my family is on our way to the hospital," I replied while hanging up.
"Ma what's wrong?" Jamal asked with a worried look on his face.
"Luscious got shot he's in the hospital," I said. Jamal stood their frozen and I grabbed him.
"Come on baby lets go," I said as I grabbed him and headed to the door.
"Lance are you coming?" I asked.
"Yeah baby let me grab my phone," he replied with a strange look on his face.
"Alright," I replied as I walked Jamal out to the limo. I couldn't help but worry about Luscious. Yes he's done some damaging things to me but I still loved him, and he will always be my children's father.
Lance-
"Camilla we gone have to cancel our plans just bring the documents to the hospital, I'll try and get Cookie to sign them then, yes baby this is a good time, She's emotional and vulnerable right now Luscious just got shot, she'll do anything. I'm sending you the address to the hospital, alright, okay, love you too, no matter what happens I got your back," I replied while hanging up. I grabbed my brief case and headed out to the limo.
Jamal -
Once we made it to the hospital I couldn't bare being their and knowing Luscious was in another room fighting for his life. Yes Luscious had done his share of wrong but by right he was my father.
I grabbed my phone and called Freda. She pulled up outside right on sight. "Wassup Jamal," she smiled.
"Wassup Freda, how you feeling?" I asked as I embraced her in a hug.
"I'm good, I got a studio session but you called and sounded upset so I came to holler at you," She replied.
"Yo thanks I appreciate you for coming to see about me, but man I ain't doing good," I said while shaking my head.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"Luscious got shot that's why I asked you to meet me at the hospital," I replied.
"Damn," she said as if she already knew or if she knew something I didn't.
"Freda, what's up man, why you acting like that?" I asked curious.
"Man it ain't even my place to be saying anything but man, all I can say it you got a shady mother fucker in your family," she replied.
"What you mean?" I asked.
"You know the code Jamal, no snitching, I can't say shit even though I want to tell you what's up, but I can't, just think and keep your eyes open," she replied as she gave me a hug.
