A tear rolled down my cheek landing on his shirt"I love you..." I said. He gave me another slight smile before his eyes closed
"Baby" I said shaking him. I closed my eyes holding back my tears trying to be strong at the moment
I wrapped King's arm around the back of my neck as Mark did the same. I guess the nurse saw us because she came rushing out with a stretcher. We gently placed King on the stretcher.
Mark and I followed behind the nurse and the doctor entering the emergency room. The nurse turned around "Ma'am and sir you can't follow us Now please wait in the waiting room" She said before disappearing behind the door with the others

Mark
"It's going to be okay sis" Mark said walking with me to the waiting room. I sighed putting my head in my hands. The love of my life could be dead?
As more of that thought traveled through my head I cried harder in my hands. I looked through the crack of my hands seeing my shirt covered with King's blood
"Baby" I heard a female voice say. I felt Mark getting up "Baby you okay" The familiar voice asked "Yea.... Just pray that my brother pull though" Mark said
Mark started whispering a couple of things to the girl. I looked up seeing Courtney. She moved past Mark walking over to me, she took a seat next to me rubbing my back "You okay?" She asked

Courtney
I nodded my head wiping my watery eyes. "Can you take her to King crib to change her clothes?" Mark asked Courtney
"Yea sure" She said putting her purse back on "Let's go" She said. I got up giving Mark a hug then I followed Courtney to her car
Thirty Minutes Later I stepped out the shower looking at myself in the mirror. My eyes were hella puffy from all the crying I did for these past two days.
All this shit done happened got me fucked up. Finding out that my dad had a double life. A married man with two kids then he's a big time drug dealer running the streets with a minor. Like what the fuck. He had my mother looking dumb. That's when my mother was actually something now she's a piece shit
I put on a pair of sweatpants, hoodie and black Nike's. I put my hair in a pony tail as I walked into the kitchen
"You go to eat" Courtney said to "I'm not hungry" I said looking for my keys. "I didn't know you were the lucky girl" Courtney said leaning against the counter
"How do you know King?" I asked "Mark, King and I been tight since middle school. King's like my brother" She said. I nodded my head picking up my purse
"You ready?" I asked. "Yes I am "She picked up her plate of food following me out the door
I walked back in the emergency room finding out that King is still surgery. I approached Mark and an older couple
Mark got up kissing Courtney cheek "Sage this is King's parents. Madelyn and John" Mark said. I extending my arm to shake their hands. King look just like his father but has his mother complexion
"I'm Sage" I said giving them a brief smile. We exchanged a few more words before I took a seat playing on my phone trying to keep my mind off the negative
Madelyn cleared her throat before she spoke up "So how long you and my son been dating?" I locked my phone putting it away "About three and half months" I said
"I'm just happy my son is finally happy"
I turned the gun in his direction aiming right at his skull "Fuck" I yelled out pushing down on the trigger. I watched the bullet go directly in the middle of his head
I opened my eyes seeing that we were still in the hospital. I sat up seeing that everyone was still here. I picked up my phone seeing that King has officially been in surgery for four hours going on to five. Hopefully everything is okay
"Family of Hezekiah Bazemore" We all got up at the same time walking over to the doctor
"The reason the surgery took so long is that bullet broke up into pieces...."
"So how he is" I asked cutting the doctor off. He sighed looking up from the clipboard "I'm sorry but...."
