August POV:
Dis is tha mornin' of Alana's surgery. I'm terrified as fuck. But, I'm not showing it because I'm tryna keep Mariah as calm as possible.
She is a nervous wreck! I woke up...she was pacing back and forth in front of tha bed biting on ha lip. So, I know she hasn't slept. Partially because she looks exhausted.
As we were waitin' fa tha doctor, I look at Mariah wit a questionable look...
Me: "When did you start drinkin' coffee?"
Mariah: "Dis mornin'..."
Me: "Yeahhh. See. Dis ain't gon' work...."
I grab tha cup from ha hand.
Mariah: "Wait. No..."
Me: "Uh-Uh..."
Mariah: "Aug-"
Me: "No..."
Mariah: "I need dat...."
Me: "Like hell you do. You are not about ta be bouncing around off of shit. You don't even like coffee!"
Mariah: "I needed somethin' ta wake me up a lil bit..."
Me: "Did you even get a lil bit of sleep?"
Mariah: "No. None at all..."
Me: "I figured because it was weird seein' you up early pacing around..."
Mariah: "I'm juss a lil stressed out dats all..."
Me: "A lil stressed? Beybe...you're drinkin' coffee. And before we left, you took a long drink from tha bottle of Ciroc..."
Mariah: "It was needed..."
Me: "At seven in tha mornin'?"
Mariah: "Don't judge me..."
Me: "Not judging. Juss talkin'..."
She gives me tha most crucial side eye. Luckily...tha doctor walked in.
Dr: "Good morning..."
Mariah: "Hi...."
I juss give a head nod.
Dr: "Alright. She's about to go back. They're prepping for the surgery as we speak. *sighs* You two have a lot of faith. This is very high risk. But, it's my job to make sure that everything goes perfectly-"
Me: "In which you'll be watching very carefully..."
Dr: "Yes. Absolutely. And I will keep you two updated..."
I look at Mariah and she looks so heartbroken.
Mariah: "Juss take care of my beybe, please..." She said as she rubbed Alana's hand
Dr: "She's in great care..."
She kisses ha hand and they take tha cart out of tha room. Mariah looks at me and I wipe tha tears off ya face.
Mariah: "August. I'm scared..."
I pull ha into a hug and rub ha back.
Me: "She'll be fine. Don't worry..."

*11:30 pm*Mariah POV:
While August is sleep...I've been up in darkness. I can't sleep at all. And I'm exhausted as hell. I'm relieved dat everything went good during ha surgery. It's juss everything dat happens after is what you truly have ta worry about.
As I was juss about ta force myself ta sleep, my phone rings. I grab it off tha table and answer it...
Me: "Hello?"
.......
Me: "How soon?"
.......
Me: "On our way...."
I hang up and turn on tha lamp.
Me: "August. Beybe wake up. We gotta go..."
August: "Go where, babe?"
He looks at me and his whole vibe changed.
Me: "We gotta go-"
August: "Breath, Riah..."
He gets up and does what he has too. After putting on my shoes, we leave....

Dr: "Ummm. I'm sorry to I have to be the one that says this. But, a few hours after her surgery, her health started to decline. She straight lined-"
Me: "No..."
Dr: "We tried to revive her-"
Me: "No!"
Dr: "She didn't make it..."
I lost my entire shits! Aug caught me before I completely hit tha floor. My biggest fear...came true...
