The Aftermath

40🥀

August 1996:
Justine

'Where am I?' I asked out of confusion

'You are at the hospital honey' my mum  said calmly

'Hospital.....why?' I leaned forward but back again when I felt a slight strain coming from my neck

'You were in a car crash Justine.....wait you don't remember.......' my mum ask looking at me worried

'Remember What?' I asked even more confused raising my voice a bit as I winced at the pain after

'Oh.....I forgot to tell you' the doctor chuckled a bit 'Justine is suffering from a trauma where she can't remember what happened to her during the accident, reasons why she is confused to why she is here' the doctor explained

Must've been a very bad accident then....

'Will this damage her memory permanently?'

'Well these are very minor issues, her Brain will be healthy again but for her body, it will take time to heal, especially her leg as it suffered badly'

I didn't even know that I injured my leg until I felt a hard cast around it. I groaned in pain and frustration as I wasn't gonna be able to go anywhere for a long long time. Who was going to take car of me?.......How am I going to get my work done?.......but to be honest, that's the least of my worries. I need to think about my health, I know this is all of Suge's fault and I can't stick around Death Row anymore, I don't care if my contract ain't done, I can't anymore. I don't know who told my ass to go and sign with the devil after what he did. This is part two of the of his assault but instead he tried to get his goons to do it for him.

I rested my head back on the bed, making myself comfortable on the pillows but was interrupted when I heard talking, they weren't from anyone I know, they sounded like people that worked with the government or some shit.

I opened my eyes and saw that it was lawyers. Damn they had a note book and everything. I closed my eyes again but as soon as they said they wanted to speak to me, I knew all hell was gonna break loose. I should've known that they were gonna come here anyways, I still remember what went down on while I was driving carelessly, knocking down equipment nearly knocking people over and using my gun in the not so safe way possible. Anything else after, I don't know what went down at that point.

'May we speak to Miss Justine Indiana Skyers?' The women asked politely

Damn you have to use my whole government name?.....

'Damn can it wait?' I groaned

'Miss Skyers this is very important, you have been charged with careless driving, using the gun irresponsible and damage of equipment on the pavement' the women spoke

'You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney during interrogation; if you cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed to you.' The other one spoke

I'm Justine, what I look like, I of course I can afford my own attorney.....

'Well y'all gonna have to wait because imma be unstable for a bit' I said

'Well you gonna have to make it work Miss Skyers, we'll see you in court next week Thursday in the morning, 11am sharp' the the lady said giving me attitude as she handed me the paper with the information

Damn if I wasn't in this mess, that bitch would think twice about talking to me like that......she look familiar though, she look like one of DeVante's or Tupac's Groupies......

I just dashed the papers to one side as my mother got them and looked at them in disbelief.

Damn, just get a chance to see the world again and I can't even enjoy without being in more deep shit......

I rested my eyes once more as I made my head comfortable on the pillows, silence at last......uh oh, spoke to soon.......

'JUSTINE!' Everyone shouted as they came busting into the room as I groaned in frustration

'Girl What'd up with you, you ain't happy to see us?' Jennifer asked as she got out a great big card as Mary had a stuffed teddy in her hand

'Sorry guys I'm just frustrated' I groaned

'Why?' Sira asked

'The lawyers just came in and I gotta be in court in a week.....my stupid dumbass got pressed with three charges'

'What you do?' Faith asked

'I would tell you but damn I'm really tired, my moms got the paper though so she can show you' I said yawning

'Girl yo' ads was knocked out for 5 days and you tired?' Mary looked at me dumb

'Damn, I was asleep for that long?' I deeped

'Yep.....how you feeling though?' Cliff asked

'I'm doing fine, but damn I ain't gonna be able to do - wait, Where's Pac?' I asked toss big my head slowly

'He On set working with gang related, he said he'll drop by later' Mary told me

'Oh.....' I trailed of

'Why, what's up?' Sira asked

'Oh.....nothing.....'

It was something, he told me somethings the other night, and even though it was hard for me to move, I could hear him talk and he meant every single word of it.

'Okay......then' I broke the silence 'when do I get to come out' I changed the subject

'The Doctor said that you'll need to more days in here and you'll be signed to go off'

Oh great!

'Who's gon' look after my as - I mean me?' I changed my answer

'Girl, we all gon' look after you' Faith stated

'Nah, don't do that, don't sacrifice your time for me'

'All the things you've done for us Justine, we have to repay you' Cliff said making me smile

At least I get a warm welcome home from the people I love, but have to be in that big courtroom in a week.....times like this, I wish I was dead!
