The nurse walks in and approach the bed. She watches me sit there and cry. "Can I have a seat next to you?" She puts her hand on my shoulder. "I don't care..." I say looking up at her. She's so beautiful. She brown skin, hazel eyes, 5'1, has a fit body, long dreads in a bun, and she's wearing a very fitted scrub uniform.
"What's wrong? Whats going on sweetie?" She sit and grab my hand. "I just don't want to live no more." I cry. "Sweetheart what ever it is I'm sure it'll get better. Please don't say it cause I would have to report it." She stands up. "I don't care what happened to me. I just want to die. Everything is ruined." I continued to cry. "Uhm... I'm sorry but i have to report this." She leaves, she seems ayonned she couldn't help me. The door shut and Chain runs threw the door. "Bro, we got to go. We'll come see you tge hospital, but its cops everywhere. I love you man. They gone get you tge help you need ok? Remember I'm always gone be here. Love you, man." Chain runs out the door. I was waiting for Andrea to come threw the door. Tears ran down my face. I hear the door crack open. I'm hoping its Andrea. "Hey...uhm..." Its Andrea creeping slowly in the room. She keeps looking back. She walks to the bedside. I sit up slowly. "Damn, all we been threw you gone leave? I love you." I say. "Chain thinks its best if we go in hiding. Her girlfriend coming too. I wish you could come." Andrea hugs me tight. "They sending me away." I cry. "I know... Promise me you will never forget about me." Andrea looks back. "I want to come." I start standing. "Chain said it'll just slow us down. I want you to come to baby. Can you just hold me one more time....please?" Andrea starts crying when I give her a long tight hug. "Its time to leave." Chain comes back in. "Just one more minute please." Andrea cries harder and holds me tighter. "I'm not trying to get locked up. I need to get back to my girl. Come on." Chain snaps.
"Can't you she grieving! You a bitch! You gone let them send me away!?" I yell. I stand up and buck Chain. Chain pulls her gun out. "I ain't even trying to do it. I love too man but i can't go back for real man. You know i can't. I need her to come just in case that dumb bitch say something stupid." Chain snap. "Fuck you Chain!" Andrea yells. Chain starts pulling on Andrea. "Look baby, I love you, but i need you to go. I will never forget about you. I promise my love. Please just listen. I love you." I grab her face and look into her eyes. Chain pulls her away. I fall to the floor an cry. The nurse comes back in. "Girl, what you doing out of bed? I don't know what I'm going to do with you. Do you have any family? Or friends that can be there for you? You're going to a rehabilitation center." I shake my head, "no." "If you need me. Here's my number sweetheart ok?" She put her number in my hospital bag. I shake my head, "yes." "So, what happened to you?" She asked. "You don't talk?" I just stare quietly. "Well I'm just suppose stay here with you until you go to building A. But if your not going to try then I'll just leave." She walked slowly to the door. "Try what?" I say. "Oh, so you do have a voice. Mmm... Can I have a seat?" She smiles. "Theres a empty chair..." I a snap. "Mmm, I see your a smart ass." She snaps. "Excuse me...?" I'm in bit of a shock. "Wanna try this again? Uhm, Mina?" She snaps. "What do you want from me?" I snap. "The truth? I have this girl come in near death with no family or friends...People run in and out but their not related to you in no way. I find everything you say a load of bull....So, like I said would you like to try this again?" She snaps. I sit up. I grunt, she helps me sit up. "What are you doing?" I sit back. " Well lets do this again. Like you say. I was shot by my own best friend basically sister. All that i have left is all that went out that door. I have no one. No at all. Nowhere to go. But of course you'll never understand." I start to cry. "You can have me, but thats only if you want. Mina your a beautiful girl and smart. I will be here for you. I know what it feel like i spent a whole two months a park bench." The nurse started to stand up. "Wait nurse , where you going?" I was hoping i didn't offend her. "You can call me K, but I think I should leave." She looked worried. "Did I do something wrong? I'm sorry..." I say. "No, that's just a touchy subject-" K was interrupted by one of her nurse friends. "Whoa, what cha doing?" The other nurse said. "I'm just talking to one of favorite patients. What?" K snap. "Yeah, is that right? Hi, K patient..." The nurse snap. "Her name is Mina...Jezze why you have to be such a bitch, Erica." K snap. "I thought you said she just a patient not your fuck buddy. Remember your beautiful girl friend at home." She smiled back at me and left the room. "Look, I don't have a girlfriend. My ex lives with me, but we have everything separate. " K tries to explain herself. "no, need to explain I'm not your fuck buddy." I smile. She leaves the room.
