RARE GOLD

viii.

☼ TREVOR KENNETH SAL ☼

I walked into the hospital trying to think as positive as possible but its hella hard when the only information you have is your girlfriend has been shot. The negative thoughts clouded my mind as well as the last moments I spent with Rare.

After Tyla told me Rare was shot all I asked was which hospital she was at before hanging up. I threw on some sweats and a t shirt and headed straight for the door. I was in such a rush I forgot to put my contacts on so I had to wear my glasses.

Turning the corner I saw the waiting room only had a few people in it, being King, Tyla, Ban, and Boss. Tyla had tears running down her face as King tried to comfort her and I could see the worry and pain written all over his face, while Ban and Boss both looked pissed off. I sat in the corner across from everyone, Ban and Boss sent me a small head nod and I returned it. King was avoiding looking at me but I know he saw me walk in, and Tyla was too busy crying to speak.

After sitting here for about an hour, I was still on the edge, no doctor or nurse has given us any type of information. I dont even know where she got shot on her body or how it happened. One thing I knew for sure that this wasn't a 'wrong place, wrong time' type of incident. This shit was planned and I was determined to find who ever thought it was such a fucking great idea to try and kill her. I wasn't even in the game anymore, but I still had connects so all I had to do was pull a few strings and this could be handled. I wanna do it myself, watch the muthafucka beg for mercy as I cause them to lose their last breath.

Evil thoughts flooded my mind and I'm sure I had a wicked look on my face, as a doctor walked up to the waiting area catching everyone's attention.

"Family of Rare Egypt." The doctor called into the waiting area, King gently shook Tyla awake as we all walked up to the doctor.

"How is she?" King asked right away as Tyla finally noticed me and came to hug me. I hugged her tightly and kissed the top of her head lightly.

"Im not sure if you all were informed but Ms. Egypt was shot twice in her lower abdomen. At first we couldnt stop the bleeding but once we finally did we were able to get the bullets removed easily. She is out of surgery and doing well, we just plan on keep her for a day or two, to make sure the bleeding doesnt happen again then shes free to go." He smiled as we all blew out a breath of relief, I'm just happy it wasn't anywhere near her heart or brain, true enough I'd rather her not be in the situation at all but it could be worse.

"Can we see her?" King questioned as Tyla came and hugged up under him, the doctor nodded.

"Follow me." We did as told and walked behind him to the elevator where he pressed the number four. The elevator dinged and the doors opened indicating we were on the fourth floor. Following the doctor out, it was King and Tyla right behind him, me, then Ban and boss. After passing up a few doors we came up in front of 420, the doctor walked in first and in the same order we walked into the room, to see Rare peacefully sleeping.

I went and sat in the chair next to her bed as King went and stood by her side on the other side of the bed, while everyone else stood at the foot of her bed.

"She should be waking up in a few, not to rude or anything but most patients don't like being crowded once they do wake." The doctor hinted, but I wasn't going any damn where, my black and asian ass was staying in this damn chair till I see my baby's fucking eyes open.

"We'll just be waiting outside." Tyla said softly to King and I, she sent a small smile and turned to Ban and Boss. "C'mon niggas, I don't need my Lotus Flower Bomb annoyed when she wakes." We laughed as they smacked their lips.
