— Next Morning : Hospital Room F090
•• 5:37 AM

My eyes started to flutter open , I could feel pain everywhere. From my neck down , I could barely find the strength to turn my neck. Looking around I seen myself laying in the hospital bed.

I looked up at the sign seeing it say " ICU ". Tears started to stream down my face. I couldn't tell if anyone was around me cause I could barley move my neck

" Stink your up..." I heard my moms voice from beside me , feeling her touch my hand I immediately squeezed onto hers. My heart began raising , its like I was back sitting in that chair tied up.

" Someone come help her please ! " She shouted as , all the doctors turned their attentions towards me. They all ran over scooting my mom aside but not far enough where I would let go of her hair.

The small nurse gently grabbed the breathing mask placing it over my face. I immediately felt myself starting to repace it self and go back to normal.

" You alright stink...Just breathe." My mom whispered to me as she ran her hands through my hair softly. As I calmed down I could feel my eyes open.

The nurses were checking up on my vitals and my blood pressure. I just sat there in silence , everything that had happened was replaying in my head. Why would Red set me up like that ? How did Jania even get in contact with Malik ?

" She's doing fine..her ribs are fractured and her right ankle is broken and her shot gun wound isn't survey. We got the bullet out. She will heal in due time...we just have to watch out for her for another few days." The nurse spoke up to my mother.

" You hear that Yanna. You're just fine stink." My mom sighed in relief as she sat beside me holding my hand still. I was so damn happy to be alive. I could be dead right now , but these people that I barley knew...They cared about me so much they put they lives at risk to come and save mine.

God was definitely listening once I ask him to spare me my life. I watched as the nurse exited from my room.

" I'ma go get your friends. They haven't left you yet mamas...Jamar really wants to know that your okay." She spoke lowly on the side of my bed where she was sitting. I could hear her voice starting to crack.

It broke my heart knowing that I even had my mom in this situation. If I would have never got caught up with Red...like Kentrell told me to I wouldn't be in this hospital.

She kissed my hand before getting up from the chair and made her way out of the room. I sighed as I rested my hand on my side and laid my head back gently against the pillow.

I had only closed my eyes for a few seconds before hearing people walk into my room. I quickly opened my eyes seeing Kentrell and Jamar standing infront of me.

Jamar was looking me right into my eyes and deep into my soul. I could see all the hurt in his eyes , I could feel the angry in his energy as soon as he stepped into the room. It was actually scary to even look at him.

I shook the thought off and turned my attention towards Kentrell. He did the exact same thing. I couldn't take it , I quickly shut my eyes and sighed.

" I look that bad ?" I lowly asked keeping my eyes shut. I could feel both of them grab one of my hands from the side of the bed they were standing on.

" I thought I was gone lose you out there...that shit wasn't gone sit right wit' me." Jamar spoke up causing me to open my eyes and look over at him slowly.

He was my favorite cousin , and one of my favorite people to be around. Jamar was always looking out for me and he always made a lot of shit possible for me. He didn't treat me like a cousin , he treated me like we were brother and sister.
