Still on Ermias...

Nipsey slouched in the chair, with his mouth wide open, still by Euphoria's hospital bed. He stayed by her side the  entire night.

His head uncomfortably leaned back. Nipsey's hat had fallen off and woke from choking off his saliva.

Euphoria watched him look confused of his surroundings. Until his eyes found hers, they cracked up laughing.

He cleared his throat, and leaned forward

He cleared his throat, and leaned forward. "You up..?" He asked surprised, but in questioning way.

"Yup, I haven't been up.. not too long." She croaked, rolling her eyes shut.
E still looked like she was in pain, but she manages to keep puttin' a smile on her face.

I looked back at Gram and Creed. They were knocked out. It looked like Creed was startin' to stir and get a lil cranky.

Nipsey turns back to Euphoria and pointed back. "Lil man bout to wake up."

"Wake Gram." E pushed a button on the remote, that connected to the bed to lift her up.

I shook Gram a lil and that's when Creed went to hollerin'. He wasn't so much used to me. Men in general.
He's used to bein' around women, that he never really had a Male figure in his life. His dead beat dad, aint really allowed to stay that long. I heard Creed's scared of him, anyway.

"Shh.. I know Its feedin' time."
Gram looked up at me, and pointed to his bag. "Sweetie, could you get his mini cooler and grab a bottle outta there."

I did exactly what she told me and handed a bottle to her. I saw the bottle warmer and plugged it in the wall.

"Thank you so much, So helpful." Gram smiled, sweetly.

"A real man.." Euphoria joked, but I knew she was serious.

I looked back at her. "Damn right.
I'm always gon' be helpful."

"Ermias, what I tell ya bout that cussin' ! And we're thankful that your here. Your dad, grandma and mother did a good job. If only you'll keep that foul mouth to yourself."

Gram caressed my hand and suddenly stopped, seein' E cough, gaspin' for air. She went cold in fear.

I wasted no time and ran out the room lookin' for a nurse or a doctor. "Emergency up in room 212!!"

A good amount of nurses ran in.
I heard Gram and Creed cryin'.
I rushed back in to get them.

"Gram, I'm takin' y'all to granny's.
I don't want you have another nervous breakdown."

Gram looked back at room 212 and put her hand over her mouth, a tear fell from her eye.

All she wanted was Euphoria, to know if she'll be aight.

"Its aight." I put my hand on her back and reassured, makin' sure she's secured in her seatbelt. I locked Creed down his Carseat. "She'll be strong, she a fighter."
