My Brother's Bestfriend

Chapter 7

Jade POV

When I pulled up to the hospital my heart started beating faster. Instead of getting out of the car I just sat there staring into space. I couldn't believe it like why would anyone want to hurt my brother? As I sat there expecting the worst I decided that I should pray before I walked into that hospital.

I bowed my head and closed my eyes and began praying. When I was done I unbuckled my seat belt and got out the car wiping the stray tears that ran down my cheeks.

As I walked into the hospital my heart started beating even faster, to say I was scared was an understatement. My faith is what's keeping me from just having a break down right now. Once I got to the front desk the lady greeted me.

"Hi how may I help you", she said sounding enthusiastic.

"Hi", I said on the verge of tears with my voice shaking. "I'm here to see Lorenzo Hernandez".

"His middle name please.", she said really politely.

"Isaiah"

"Lorenzo Isaiah Hernandez is in room 418", she said pointing in the direction of the room.

"Thank you", I said and sped walked down the hallway.

As I entered the room I seen my Mom and Milian sitting in the chairs around his bed.

"Hey guys", I said slowly walking into the room.

They turned around and made small smiles.

"How is he", I asked going over and getting a chair pulling it closer to his bed and sitting down.

"He's good the doctor gave him some pain pills and he just went straight to sleep", my mom said assuring me nothin was wrong.

"That's good but what happened, how did he get shot", I asked about to cry again.

"I don't know exactly what happened but he came to my house already bloody" Milian said a little above a whisper. "So of course when I saw how bloody he was I immediately started examining his body. He had 3 bullet wounds and I immediately brought him here", she said with tears just freely falling down her face.

As she finished talking I looked at Lorenzo who was peacefully sleeping. He had bandages on his arm, bruises on his face, and an IV in the other arm, I feel really bad for him.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when the doctor walked in. I knew this wasn't the right time for this but damn that doctor is fine. (Doctor in Multimedia)

He looked at his clipboard and began speaking.

"Hello Mrs. Hernandez", the doctor said shaking my mom's hand.

"Hi, is he gonna be ok doc", she said, with her voice filled with hope.

"Yes ma'am he is fine, we were able to remove the bullets and stop the bleeding", he said giving a small smile.

"Oh thank god!", my mom said looking up at the ceiling starting to cry tears of joy.

"But...", the doctor started. This nigga should have told us the bad news first.

"He lost a lot of blood, in fact he lost too much blood. Hopefully you wouldn't mind donating some blood to him", he said to my mom.

"Aw shit", my mom said panicking.

I knew why my mom starting panicking, this woman is terrified of needles. I don't blame her for being scared if them cause god knows I hate them too but my mom is worse.

"Ok I'll do it for him", my mom said finally giving in.

"No mom I got it", I said assuring her she didn't have to do it.
