*Aniyah's P.O.V*
I was suddenly waken up from my brief nap because of screaming coming from the other side of the waiting room. Sadly this couple had just lost their little girl in a car accident. It just made me think of my children. I would have been a great mother. I just smiled at the thought of how my future would have been like with children.

I can see me now at football games, soccer games, basketball games, it doesn't matter you name it. Whatever my little one wanted me to do I was going to make it happen like a mother is supposed to do. I can hear the pain in their voice. The sight of it all made me weak, sad, hurt. My heart truly cries out to her.

Honestly all of this hospital crap is draining me. I don't know if it's the fact that I had a miscarriage and lost lots of blood or the fact that very important people in my life are in the same hospital fighting for their life. The same day. Can I get a break for once? I'm just tired.

"Aye let me know if the doctor comes while I'm gone I'm just gone head to the bathroom I'll be back baby." Jaylen said to Cindy as he placed a kiss on her forehead and headed to the bathroom down the hall.

"Niyah?" Cindy called out

"Huh?" I said still staring at the bare cold floor

"I think you should get some fresh air. You don't look too good. I really don't know what's wrong so I don't know how to approach you right now. Wow, who knew what all could happen in just two days. We were just drinking Henny at Jacob's party. Then you went missing that night. We where right on top of it and found you the very next day but it came with consequences. People in this hospital fighting for their lives." She said getting up and sitting in the seat next to me

"Yeah only thing this shows me is life is not a game, but I mean I already knew that though. Cindy I'm going to tell you like I told the rest of them. All of this is happening because of me. Jacob is in this because of me and my mother was just trying to help me. All they ever wanted to do was protect me. Just like the rest of you. You were only trying to protect me but I did this. I've done some things that I don't regret but caused pain upon a whole lot of people. More than y'all could ever imagine. I have people after me because of it but they can have me. Just leave y'all alone. I don't even care if they kill me. Well, they can try."

"Aniyah?? What's are you saying??" Cindy asked me getting up and standing in front of me

"Cindy sit down." I whispered pushing her back down in the seat next to me

"I'm saying that I'm about to go away for a while. I promise to keep in touch if y'all promise to not look for me. I can handle myself but for now I need to just get away I know how I can get when I hurt. I'm not normal Cindy and we knew this back in middle school. My anger, depression and anxiety is different from anybody in this world. I have a mind of my own that I don't know how to control. So I stopped trying to control it. I just let it be."

"Aniyah what's wrong with you I've never heard you talk like this. I think you need to see someone when all of this is over. You've not been acting yourself lately." Cindy said looking sincerely concerned

"What's wrong with me? What do you mean what's wrong with me? So you're gonna' just judge me like everyone else do, huh?" I said getting up yelling at her which caused eyes from all around

"Niyah baby sit down. Please no ones judging you. She's your friend." David said trying to calm me down which didn't calm me down at all it just made it worse in fact.
