Will He Ever Be Mine?

Chapter Fifteen

"I still can't believe you're leaving." Faith said while I coughed again. "I swear if you cough one more time, I'm gonna hit you with my purse bitch." Asia said and I laughed.

"Sheesh I can't help it. I've been coughing a lot lately. It always feels like something is in my chest that I can't cough up." I said. I don't know what it is, but it's irking me.

Right now the three of us were at Faith's house just hanging out. Asia said Riley was coming, but this was over two hours ago. This is supposed to be the time we "talk out our differences" in Asia's words. Riley is in her feelings about something. Something just ain't right with her. It's something she isn't telling us, and she's taking her anger out on me because of these situations I keep getting in. I can't help that I'm going through these things. It's not like I asked for these things to happen to me.

"I don't want you leave us Kelsey. I'm afraid that once you leave, everything will go downhill. By the way, did you tell Toni what Nolen did?" Asia asked. "Yep. He beat Nolen up and I watched. I didn't record it because Mi Mi likes to go through my phone. Didn't want her to see her dad getting beat up. I told Nolen that if he tries to hurt me, my brother, or my  family and friends in any way, he will never see Mi Mi again." I said becoming livid at the situation. "He deserved to get his ass beat. He lucky it wasn't your dad. Your dad would have killed him." Faith added, and Asia and I nodded in agreement.

Asia and Faith were talking and I could barely hear them. I heard them calling my name as I held my chest. I ran into the bathroom and threw up everything I ate and drank today plus more. I could hardly breathe. Asia and Faith ran in after me and Faith screamed as she looked in the toilet. Asia and I looked too and saw a whole lot of blood. I started to cough again and more blood came out.

"What's happening!?" I said frantically. I started to cry. I didn't know what was wrong, but I did know coughing and throwing up blood isn't normal nor is it healthy.

"Kelsey you need to go to the hospital. Come on." Asia said trying to pull me up. "No! I'm tired of going to the hospital. I'm fine. A little blood won't hurt." I said knowing she was right.

"Kelsey this is not normal. Obviously there's something wrong and you need to get it checked out." Faith said and I threw up more blood in the toilet. I felt so weak and tired. I sighed and took a deep breath even though it hurt a little. "C'mon Kelsey. This is your health. Like I said obviously there's something wrong. If you won't go to the hospital for us, at least go for Mi Mi. You don't want her to see you like this." Faith added and I sighed again wiping my tears.

"Okay." I said and they helped me up. "I'm texting Riley telling her not to come to my house but to meet us at the hospital. If she gets an attitude, that's a her problem." Asia said as I touched the toilet, and Faith handed me the trashcan just in case. "I swear it's something going on with her, and she's not telling us." I said walking to Faith's car.

*Two Hours Later*

So I'm laying in a hospital bed with this stupid hospital gown on watching tv. Asia, Faith, my mom, my dad, and Mi Mi are sitting in chairs on both sides of the room. I got IV hooked up to me, I have an attitude, my body is weak, the channels they got in this hospital are wack, and I want to go home.

I groaned out loud causing my mom to look at me.

"What's wrong baby? Are you in pain?" She asked walking to my bed. I nodded and she held my hand. "What hurts baby girl?" She asked and I sighed. "My life hurts ma. My heart hurts ma. My head hurts ma. My body hurts ma. I want to go home and curl up in my bed under the covers ma." I said putting my arm over my eyes letting the tears flow. I felt a dip in my bed and arms around me.
