It's been 1 month since the banquet and 1 week since Andre got out the hospital. For the most part Andre is walking with a cane, sometimes he needs my assistance in helping him get up sit down to shower.... to pee
I have to take him to physical therapy once a week... only problem doctor has Andre on medication ... medication that makes him moody
"QUEENIE WHERES MY SOCKS" Andre yelled " I don't know Dre where did you last put them" Andre shot me a look " Queenie, if I knew that last place I put them I wouldn't ask you" he spat " Andre you asked for my help I'm trying to help" "QUEENIE I DIDNT ASK FOR YOUR HELP .... you know what I'll look for it myself"
Andre tried to get up off our bed but moved to fast which caused pain " DONT JUST STAND THERE GET ME MY MEDS" I let out a sigh I picked up my medicine log book to keep track of what it's time to take his medicine " Andre you already took your medicine two hrs ago , dr.greg said every 4 hours" "GET ME MY MEDICINE" he yelled I looked down at my book " I'll call dr.greg see what he says"
I pulled out my phone to call him

"Hello" he answered " oh hey dr.greg it's Queenie Andres girlfriend I was calling because " I paused because Andre is staring right at me and for what I need to say I need to be choosy with my words " um he's in pain a lot of pain it's emotional to watch" I said
First there was a silence then "oooooo ok so he's being an ass right" he said I let out a sigh of relief " yes he was looking for his socks and got up too fast" " mmmm when was the last time he took his medicine" I answered " 2 hours ago"
"WHATS TAKING SO LONG" Andre " Dr.Greg please is there something I can do" I asked " well that medication is strong as you can see we can't just give him another dose who knows what that could do" greg explains " so what can we do is there some alternative" " unfortunately no he's gonna have to ride that pain out and you at some point need to put your foot down" was his last words before hanging up

After I put the phone down Andre managed to walk over to me ... I didn't even hear him get up "so.. what did he say" he asked out of breath " he said you need to wait until it's time to take" "THATS BULL SHIT GIVE ME THE PHONE LET ME TALK TO HIM" Andre tried to reach for his phone but moved to fast again and fell to the floor "FUCK" he screamed
I rushed over to him to help "GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME" he pushed me off I fell to the floor almost hitting my head on the coffee table, as I tried to get up Andre looked at me with horror in his eyes realized what's happening, before he could say anything there was a knock on the door
"Queenie Andre it's me Zac" Andre and I looked at each other " I'll answer it you get yourself back in bed" Andre nodded crawled back in bed.I gather myself head to the door and open it
