I leaned in to kiss her but Keyshawn ran up to us and said something in my ear that made me furious.
"Chris just called me and said Big J got loose and they think he on his way here."
"Baby what's wrong" Sydney asked standing up
"Nothing we got-" before I could finish my sentence, I heard gun shots, screams, and then I saw Sydney hit the floor. She was bleeding from her stomach.
"Come on baby, stay with me. Everything will be ok ." I said but then her eyes closed.
I picked her up bridal style, ran through the back door, put her in the back and run to the driver side. As I started the car, Audrey ran to the passenger side and got in.
"Nigga what? Hurry and get my girl to the hospital" she yelled
I sped to the hospital running lights and stop signs. Once I pulled up to the hospital, I picked up Sydney and brought her inside.
"Help, my sister was shot" Audrey yelled .
Doctors and nurses came running towards us. I laid her on the bed and watched them take her away.
While we were sitting, Audrey was crying in my arms. Keyshawn walked in a few minutes later with blood all over his shirt. Nurses were trying to help him, but he kept saying he ok and asking for Sydney.
"Where she at bruh?" Keyshawn asked while pulling Audrey into his lap.
"She in the back." I answered with my head in my hands.
Ain't this some shit. I get the girl of my dreams and the same night I do, she get shot because of what Keyshawn and I do for a living. And it's her birthday.
It's my fault she even in here.
Almost 6 hours later and nobody has come out to tell us what's going on.
"Family of Sydney" A tall black man came out. He didn't look like he was old enough to be a doctor. He looked about 24, too young to be a damn doctor.
"Here" Keyshawn said standing up, with Audrey and I behind him.
"Ok well Sydney is lucky. She is a true fighter. She was shot In her stomach. Nun of her major organs were punctured and we stopped the bleeding and removed the bullet. We are going to keep her here for about week to make sure she is ok. You can go see her. Room 308." and with that the doctor left.
Audrey went in first, and when she did she screamed loud as fuck. Keyshawn and I bust in the door expecting something to be wrong but all we saw was Audrey hugging the life out of poor Sydney.
"Oh god Syd, I'm so happy you're ok" Audrey said.
"Hi to you too" Sydney said smiling. She winced in pain, making Audrey release her.
"Hey baby girl how you feeling?" Keyshawn asked.
"I feel fine except this pain. But I just want to go home"
"Well you have to stay here for a week. They want to make sure you're ok"I said
"Well can y'all stay with me till I get out?" she asked.
"Yea I'll stay" I said
"I can't. I have to go handle business and get whoever did this shit" Keyshawn said walking towards the door.
"Oh sorry baby, I gotta go too" I said kissing Sydney on her forehead.
"Naw brodie stay here with your girl" Keyshawn said leaving.
"I gotta go too Syd, but I'll be back later" Audrey said leaving.
"Well it looks like it's just us. Come get in bed with me. " Sydney said smiling at me. I got in bed with her and cuddled up with her. "Babe can you do me a favor?" she said.
"Wassup?"
"I got a letter from Jordan, and I haven't read it yet. Can you go to my house and get it for me?"
"Yea I'll be back" I got up and walked out the hospital. While I was walking to my car, I see that nigga Trey.
"Aye, wassup" Trey asked.
I didn't know what he was going to do, so I had my hand on my gun just in case anything happened.
"You want to ignore me? I don't think that's a good idea. You don't want anything to happen to your girl now would you?" he said following me to my car.
Soon as I got in my car I called Sydney and told her to call a nurse in her room and make sure she don't leave.
I then called Keyshawn.
"Wassup" he answered
" I been thinking. Ain't it weird how Monica and Keisha showed up to the club. But left to easy when Sydney asked them. Then the shooting happened.?"
"Yea I was thinking the same"
"And I just saw that nigga Trey. I was ignoring him and he said you don't want nothing to happen to Sydney do you? So he in on whatever going on too"
"Fuck... And nobody can find Monica or Keisha either. Alright I'm on my way to the hospital."
I got the letter from Sydney house and made my way back to my baby.
Sydney
I was laying in the hospital bed while the nurse check my vitals for the 3rd time. I was doing everything I could so she wouldn't leave, but I really want her to leave. Just then, Keyshawn walked in.
"Where Damian?" he asked while kissing my forehead.
"He went to the house to get the letter from Jordan. I didn't read it yet"
Damian walked in, sat on the bed next to me and handed me the letter.
"Syd, read it out loud" Keyshawn said.
Dear Sydney,
I haven't see you in so long and I miss you. I bet you look very beautiful. I actually been having people watch you just to make sure you're safe. I want you to know we will be meeting again soon. I know you miss me just as much as I miss you. We can have fun like we used to. But now that you're birthday is coming up, you'll be legal. We can finally get married like we wanted and start a family and be happy together. I love you and can't wait to make you my wife.
I still remember our first time. Well our almost first time; the way u screamed my name made me feel so good. Well I'll see you soon baby. I love you.
Your future husband,
Jordan...
I can't believe he actually thinks I liked what he did to me. I couldn't help but cry. Not out of fear but anger. I felt Damian pull me into a hug while rubbing on my back.
"Damian let me talk to you outside for a second. Syd, baby girl you're safe. Trust me, I'll never let anything happen to you." Keyshawn said.
And with that, Keyshawn and Damian left my room to think about everything. If they're trying to keep me safe, why the hell they keep leaving me alone ?
My thoughts roamed over to how I was shot on my birthday after someone named Big J escaped my brothers trap in Kali.
Jordan saying he will see me soon.
"Babe, Keyshawn and I are going downstairs to make some calls. We'll be back in about 10 minutes. Call me if you need anything" Damian said kissing my lips and going back outside.
He was gone before I could even say anything.
As I was getting comfortable and about to go to sleep, my room door opened.
In walked the women who chose a man over her own daughter.
My mom...
