Lauren POV

  I've been laying in my bed all day, thinking and thinking.

  Is Normani going to be okay, and my baby?! Why do I have to chose, I fucking want the both of them. How did this escalate so quickly? I went away for not even ten minutes. This shit doesn't add up.

  Well there's no food in the fridge so I'm about to run to the store. I'd rather be sad than hungry.

  I walk in the bathroom and wash the old, salty tears and mascara off my face. I put my hair in a messy bun and stare at myself.

  "If my girl doesn't make it, I'll  never be myself again."

  I walk through the isles, seeing all of the ingredients that I used to cook for Normani. She said I was the best cook. "Ahh, those steaks got me lucky that night." I chuckled to myself then proceeded to the seasons.

  As I grabbed the garlic powder, I saw a familiar face from the space it left. "No way that's her," I mumble.

  "Oh but it is, my friend."

  "Dinah!" I ran up to her and hugged her.

  "You disappear to God knows where and bitch I found you in the market? Yep, I know it's really you."

  "Very funny," she says then sticks her tongue out. "How've you been?"

  "Good, me and Nya have a rehabilitation center."

  "Damn, that's tough, man. When the fuck did you ever want to have a business?"

  "Please," I scoffed, "when you're a recovering addict but has a 4.3 GPA, you get ideas. Plus, Normani's pregnant.

  "Oh my God nugget that's great! You'd be a perfect mom, Lo'," she shrieks.

  I smile, "so how've you been, Hansen?"

  "It's SSA Hansen now, nugget."

  "Oh shit, you know who many laws we broke? Now you're a damn FBI agent, who would've known?"

  "Guess life doesn't happen as you plan it. So when can I see Normani?"

  I immediately broke into tears. I just didn't want to think about it.

  "Oh my God, what's wrong with Normani?!"

  "Coma," is all I can say, as my voice slightly cracks.

  "Oh my God nugget. Normani is one the best person I know, what did she do to deserve to be in a coma?"

  "I wonder the same thing," I say as I wipe my face. That's when I got a text.

  My face lit up, "Normani's woke, you want to take these groceries home and go see her with me?

  "Let's go."

St Josephine Hospital

Dinah's POV

  Lauren explained to me the whole story, and something doesn't add up. Either the tests are fake or someone purposely put her in a coma. You can't be on 100% and then fall into a coma. Despite of being on vacation, I have to use this badge today.

  I went to the front desk. "How may I help you ma'am?"

  "I need Normani Hamilton's file, plus I'd like to request a tox screen."

  Before she says anything I show her my badge. "Lieutenant Hansen, LAPD." I know this is orange county but you show a badge they'll tell you anything, it's pitiful.

  She then hands me the file, I smirk then walk away.

  Everyone on the file seems to be fake. No blood tests which is weird, they say her blood pressure was high, but Lauren said blood sugar. No matter what it was who can you determine if you never tested her? Somebody's setting her up, and I'm gonna find out who.

Tammy's POV (lady at front desk)

  Shit, I shouldn't have gave her the file, but I was once convicted and I can't afford to lose my job. I have to worn the others.

  I pull out my phone. I dial my boyfriend's

  "Donald, be careful the police are involved. They may be on to us, watch your back."

Hey y'all, if you thought the story was good, it's getting better.The best chapter will explain Dinah's disappearance as well. Bye!
