~~~~~~~~~~~chapter 4~~~~~~~~~~~

[Meela] You're wife threw champagne and about three slices of chocolate, red velvet, and tangerine coconut cake at me.

I thought for a second. Then I remembered her.

You're the wedding planner! You look so different without the glasses and ponytail.

[Meela] living for God can do great things for you. Now, you are hear because you need to know that what the cops said was a case of "Mistaken identity" wasn't a mistake at all.

Wait, what do you mean it wasn't a mistake? The people that did this to me were targeting me?

[Meela] well yes and no.

Then what was it?

[Meela] well they do know who you are but you weren't the target.

If they know who I am, and I wasn't the target. Who was?

We walked over to an open window and she pointed down. I looked out the window.

I don't see anyone.

[Meela] Wait.

I waited a minute. Then I heard heals clicking down the side walk. A few seconds later I jumped away from the window because I couldn't believe what I saw.

Khana?! They were after my wife?!?!

She just nodded her head slowly.

[Meela] The people that jumped you were expecting her to be at the park with Lizzie. They were going to lure Lizzie away from Khana and jump her. They didn't want to hurt the kid. When they saw you with Lizzie, they decided to change the plan.

Why? Why would someone be targeting Khana?

[Meela] That my friend is something I can't tell you. All I can say is to watch her. Don't let her go to her meeting alone.

After that she slowly faded away. The room went dark.

Suddenly my body went stiff and I began to hear the loud beeping sound of hospital monitors. Then a bright light shined in my face. I slowly opened my eyes and looked around.

I looked at the chair near the hospital bed and to my surprise Khana had returned to my side. She was asleep with a little drool on her cheek.

*In a raspy voice * Ana?

She didn't move, I picked up my pillow and threw it at her ( well,tried to through it ). She looked up and rubbed her eyes.

Ana?

I said getting her attention. Her head snapped up to look at me. Next thing I know my face is being attacked with kisses.

Oh my goodness you're awake.

I felt something wet fall on my face. Was she crying? I moved her face and looked at the water falls coming from her eyes.

Darlin' what chu crying fa, Hmm?

I thought I lost you.

She said with her head down. I held her chin up with a finger.

Look at me Ana. I'm right here.

I held my hand up showing my wedding band. You see this right here? That says I ain't goin no where anytime soon. I'm right here boo. The only way I will leave this earth is with you by my side. Do I make myself clear?

She just looked at her hand and nodded her head.

Khana Zora Simmons. She looked up at me. I'm In love with you babygirl. Nothing's going to change that . Ya heard me?

She giggled. Yes goof. I'm In love with you too. Let me go get you some water and find the doctor.

This woman is going to be the death of me. Crying and ready to shank me one minute, the next she's giggling up a frickin storm.

A few minutes later, Khana came back with a cup and the doctor.

Hello Mr. Simmons . How are you feeling? Any pain, nausea?

[Takes a sip] No sir, I feel a little stiff but otherwise I'm fine.

Well stiffness is to be expected for a man waking up from a six month coma. Let me get your vitals and we will let you go home.

Right after the doctor left, Khana's phone rang. She looked at it and smiled.

What are you over there smiling at girl?

You have a special phone call.

She handed me the phone. I pressed the button to answer it and my little girl was staring back at me.

Daddy! You wake now?

Hi princess, I'm up now.

She started eating a tangerine popsicle. Dang, she looks just like her mama. She just talks like me. We started making faces in the camera.

Khana put my clothes on the end of the bed and helped me get dressed.
