Darkest Times

9

I walked into the hospital and looked around. It was nice here. Not your typical generic white walled hospital. Some of the younger patients got to decorate the place. A little boy was painting. His painting had a pink ribbon.

Cancer.

"Chloe!" Destiny squealed as she hugged me.

"Hey bud!" I said as she sat on her hospital bed.

"Could I have some water?" Nikki asked.

"I'll get-" I began.

"I got it sweetheart." Eric said as he walked out.

I looked at her in shock.

She covered her face.

"Nuu!" she squeaked. "Nu juwdge mwe!"

Oh my God..she was a little too?!

"C'mere bud.." I said.

"Nu.." she whimpered.

"Bwuddy.." I whimpered.

Nikki looked at me and hugged me.

"Adorable!" Destiny giggled.

"Stahp!" I grumbled.

"Hey I'm smol too!" Destiny giggled as she played with her hair.

Goofball.

My phone rang and I picked up.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Hey Eric!" Allan said.

"Hey bro." I replied. "Does Chloe have permission to be at the hospital?"

"Yeah." Allan said. "Is she there?"

"Yup." I replied. "She's acting a bit strange. Kinda like Nikki and Destiny.."

"She probably needs a day off for some girl time!" Allan suggested.

"True." I replied. "We'll try to set that up. Hey bro I gotta go."

"Stay safe!" Allan said.

"You too." I replied.

I looked at my texts..

E = Eric
N = Nikki

N: Daddy where are you?!

E: It's okay baby. Daddy had a phone call.

N: Oopsie..well it tuwns out Chloe ish widdle too!!

E: I figured. Maybe you girls need a playdate.

N: B-but dada..

E: No buts babygirl. Besides. Destiny is getting out today. I'm heading back to the room right now.

N: Yay!!

E: Baby be safe. And no touching yourself!!

I set my phone in my pocket. Daddy was a meanie. I didn't wanna touch myself anyway. I wasn't comfortable with my body anyway..

"Alright you're all set!" the doctor said.

"Thankies!!" Destiny said.

"You're welcome!" he replied. He was a nice doctor.

"Girls we gotta go" daddy said as he got Destiny's new smol bag.

"Home time!" I giggled.

We walked outside and got to ride in Daddy's stylish Crown Vic. Since it was a police vehicle, we all sat in the back behind the little fence thingy.

Suddenly the radio went off.

"All available units shots fired by Madison Square Garden! Repeat, shots fired by Madison Square Garden! All available units, please respond!"

I got scared.

"Hold on little tykes." Daddy said as he drove to the scene with his sirens on.

I tried to not panic but suddenly I began crying.

"Baby it's okay." Daddy said. "Shhhh.."

Tyler, Daddy's buddy on the force, hopped in the car.

"Ty I need you to keep an eye on the girls for me." Daddy said.

"Don't worry." Tyler replied.

Suddenly they stopped and got out, guns raised.

I covered my eyes. I was so scared.

Suddenly I heard gunshots.

Chloe immediately had us take cover.

I looked up to see Tyler falling to the ground.

"Uncle Tyler.." I whimpered.

"NOOO!!!" Daddy yelled.

I cried. I had a feeling he was dead..
