EX.

Its My Fault

I paced the halls as I waited for them to tell us something about Gabby. I haven't told her sister yet. I mean how can I? Her sister is here trying to fight to get out and now this.

This week is like it's cursed. They had to medicate Malik cause he was so hysterical. And I get why he is. It is his mom. And he loss his dad too.

I went and checked on him first before going to break the news to Michelle. I walked in and he was drugged pretty heavy so I don't know if he even knows I'm here.

I walked to the side of the bed and called his name.

"Malik? Can you hear me?"

He opened his eyes and looked at me.

"Look man. I know this is hard. But I need you to calm down for me. I know that's a lot to ask but I don't want something to happen to you too."

"Where's my mom?" Malik asked.

"They working on her."

"I want to see her."

"Well right now you can't get out this bed. She's in surgery."

Before I can get anything out the coach walked in.

"Hey there Daniel."

"Hey man. How you holding up?"

"Man this is all my fault. I should have just forgiven her and moved on."

"This is not your fault. Listen I'll stay here with Malik. Go ahead and go talk to Michelle."

"Man I can't face her. Ok I understand. Well you stay here and I'll go."

"You would do that for me?"

"Yeah man I got you."

"Thank you so much."

"No problem. I'll be back."

I walked out the room and sighed hard. This is about to be the worst thing I got to do. I walked to her room and stood there for a second.

I knocked and waited for her to say come in.

"Come in." I heard her say.

I walked in and she sat up in the bed.

"Daniel what a surprise."

"Hey there. Hey how you feeling?"

"I'm making it. I'm just ready to get out this damn hospital."

"I bet you are."

She smiled and put her head down. I leaned over and lifted her head and said "what I tell you about that?"

She looked me in the eyes and and tears fell.

"What's wrong?"

"Daniel I don't have a boyfriend and I did have a miscarriage. But it's not what you think."

"Michelle you don't have to explain anything to me. I am not your boyfriend and we wasn't talking so that's your personal business."
