~ Princeton ~

Previously ;

I tiptoed downstairs it was 12 in the morning and I found Abuelita sound asleep in her rocking chair

"Abuelita." I whispered tapping her shoulder

"Nieto , your still awake?" Abuelita asked fluttering her eyes open

"Yes Abuelita what are you still doing up? You need to get in bed."

"Okay Nieto." Abuelita said as she stood up and walked to her bedroom I opened the front door silently and walked out unlocking the door To Abuelita's car

I got inside and drove about 30 minutes to the hospital

I walked in and walked to the front desk

"How can I help you?" The lady at the front desk asked me not breaking her gaze from the computer screen

"What room is Craig Crippen in?"

"Um hold on." She pressed a few keys on her keyboard "he's in 312"

"Thanks." I responded walking to the elevator

I pressed the button and played around on my phone the doors opened and I heard a familiar voice

"Princeton?"

"Hey..." I responded looking at Zonnique

I stepped off the elevator

Zonnique threw her arms around my waist nuzzling her head into my chest

"I was so worried about you are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I said brushing past Zonnique

"Princeton wait!" Zonnique called after me

"What's wrong with you?" Zonnique asked

"Nothing's wrong with me Zonnique." I simply stated as I walked into Prodigy's room

Prodigy was sitting in the room lying in the bed watching something on tv

"Prince!" Prodigy cheesed

"Hey Prodigy , how you feeling?" I asked as I took a seat on the edge of Prodigy's bed

He clicked off the tv before responding

"I'm doing good , how are you?" Prodigy asked

"Why is everybody so damn worried about how I'm feeling? Can't you see I'm fine." I snapped

"Woah Princeton Calm down."

"Don't fucking tell me to calm down I'm tired of everybody poking their nose in my business!"

"Princeton all I did was ask you how you were feel-"

"And all I did was tell you to mind your fucking business." I yelled

Just then Bahja walked in the room

"Oh hey Princeton!" Bahja smiled

"Shut the fuck up." I said brushing past her and leaving out Prodigy's room

I began walking towards the elevator

"Baby wait!" Zonnique said gripping onto my arm I turned around looking at Zonnique

"I love you.." Zonnique said

I looked at Zonnique and pulled my arm out of her grasp , I made my way towards the elevator and waited for the doors to open the doors slid open graciously and I stepped inside I turned around to look a Zonnique she was standing there with her hands crossed behind her back tears swelling in her eyes she stared at me and I stared back until the elevator doors slid closed and It descended down to the first floor.
