*Imani's POV*

Shareef only had to stay in the hospital for a few more days after surgery then he went to go back to his parents house cause he needed help still. He had a hard time getting around cause the surgery. I followed Shaunie upstairs as she helped him get up to his room. He laid in his bed with a few grunts and groans. "You okay?" I asked.
"Just sore," he nodded, smiling at me.
"I'm going to go make lunch I'll bring you guys plates when it's done," Shaunie smiled and left, shutting the door behind her. I sat down on the bed next to Shareef and kissed his cheek a few times. "What am I going to do when you have a game?" he asked.
"What you mean?" I laughed a little.
"How am I going to come?" he asked.
"You will be betterish by then," I smiled, nodding, "I promise."
"I hope so, I wanna see you," he shrugged a little bit. I nodded and put my head on his shoulder. "Don't worry baby," I told him, "It'll be okay I promise." He nodded and put his arm around me and kissed my forehead. "I'll trust you," he smiled.
"Good," I pecked a few kisses against his lips and then his mom knocked and came in with food. We both sat up a little bit and got our plates. We thanked her and then ate while watching a movie on Netflix.

"Your first game back are you excited!?" Naomi asked.
"Very," I nodded, smiling, "My dad and brothers are here, so is Shareef."
"Aweee," Lila giggled, "How cuteee."
"How is he doing?" Meadow asked.
"Good," I nodded, "He's mad he cant really do much though cause the stitches and all that but other than that good."
"Girls lets go!!!" Coach called. We all jogged out to he court and then our names were called out. When I came out I saw my dad and my brothers, front row. I looked for Shareef and didn't see him on that side. I looked to the other side and found him, and his dad, and his mom.... Oh boy, please don't see each other...

The game went on and it was going really good. I was doing great. I had about 28 points by half time. Once the game ended we ended up winning by 14 points. People came down to celebrate and I hugged my dad and my brothers. Then it went to shit... "What the hell are you doing here?!" my dad scoffed, looking past me. I turned around and saw Shareef and his parents walking up. I saw Shaunie whisper something up to Shaq and they went to walk away but my dad, being my dad, continued to taunt. "Why you showing up at my daughters games?!"
"Dad leave it alone," I turned around and looked at him, "He's here with Reefy."
"I don't care, we made a deal!" my dad didn't even look at me. I sighed and shook my head, looking over at Shaq who turned around. There was now reporters crowding around the scene. "You know what!?" Shaq started.
"What!?" my dad taunted. I tried to stop them but neither of them really cared to listen to me. "I came here to support my sons girlfriend and if you cant be a responsible adult then shit that's on you son!! I'm grown," Shaq rolled his eyes. My dad went to go toward him but my brothers held him back. Shaunie took Shaq away. "I'm sorry," I told Shareef as my dad drug me away and out to the hallway... Here we go...
