"You okay sweetheart" I asked adorn as I wiped her tears

"I hate to see her like this mom and it sucks because I can't even be mad at Zo the way I want to be"

"We're all feeling that way.. but regardless of anything else.. we need to be here for your sister's healing and pray together to help all of us get through this"

"I don't understand what happened... Why can't she just come home"

"Yeah mom?" Sade said

"She had a panic attack and her blood pressure was too high.. so they just want to montior her and give her fluids for dehydration..."

"Can stress cause this? Or is it because she was upset?" Mahadi asked

"She was very upset that triggered her attack and yes stress too much of it... So we have to make sure she's in a positive atmosphere.. stress isn't good for her or the baby.. both of..."

"What baby?" Adorn cut me off

"Luna's pregnant?" Mahadi gasped

"Yes.. she.."

"Wow... Just wow!"

"Adorn come back here" I yelled as she stormed out the room.

"She's keeping it mom ??" Sade looked at me with tears in her eyes

"well duh Sade ! Mom wouldn't have told us if she wasn't! This is bullshit... She's really going to have her rapist baby! How can you both allow this !" Mahadi raised her voice

"That's enough from all of you..." Samiz said pissed "The last thing Luna needs is her support system jumping down her throat. It's her decision... As much as it upsets me do you see me in here acting a fool? Put your emotions aside and be here for your sister. You think this is easy for her ? Do you?" He looked at both of them

"No.." they both spoke

"Then cut it the fuck out... Go get adorn and leave your attitudes before you walk back in this room... Now"

"Yes dad..."

"Thank you" I said as they both walked out the room...

"No thank you"

"For what?"

"For being you... You're a great mom.. a great woman... Pfff... I'm sorry, I'm sorry I fucked up.."

"Yeah...." I sighed

"I have to talk to you about something but I know now.. it's probably not the right time"

"There's never a right time... What is it?"

"Two trucks pulled up in front the house before we got here.."

"What? Those girls?"

"Yeah they came to fight...I had to shoot at them for them to leave"

"Shit... Oh my god this is the last thing we need right now"

"I know... But I'm going to talk to the police and get some names, a couple of restraining orders. I'm going to try to get protection for them but it won't last long. Mahadi and Sade start school in 2 weeks..."

"Yeah I know.. I'm not sure if I want them to go... They might have to miss the first week or two especially if they don't have protection. I have to go back to work at the end of this week..."

"I think you should just quit"

"My job? Are you crazy....I just got a promotion"

"The girls need you and I can take care of everything you know that"
