Charlotte woke up on the small couch next to Lisa's bed. She's been there for hours, since late at night and it was now 5:13am. She placed her phone away than walked up to Lisa. Lisa had bruises on her cheek and scratches with a bandage wrapped around her her. A bandaid on her neck. Her belly looked a lil big but it shows that she just gave birth.

"Best friend, wake up please. Trey needs you, your new born baby needs you. C'mon sweetheart, I've been laying on that small ass couch waiting for you to wake up. Come back to me please." Charlotte sniffed wiping her tears. She took deep breaths calming herself. Just than the door opened and Marcus came in, Wheeling Trey inside. Trey looked fucked up, he never slept inch. All he can think about was the accident and his little girl dying behind his seat.

"Hey Trey." Charlotte greeted softly. Trey just nod than wheeled to his fiance. He looked her wanting to cry.

"C-can y'all give us a minute?" Trey asked.

"S-sup." Charlotte said taking Marcus's hand than walked out. Once they did, Trey balled out, holding Lisa's hand on his cheek.

"I'm sorry baby. I'm so sorry. You told me to slowly down, I should...I should have listened. I should have listened to you Lisa. Now she's gone!" He cried even more than he did with Marcus. "I-i-i c-c-can't do t-t-this al-alone Lisa. Pl-please! Please" he looked at his love. "Please baby, pull through! I lost my grandma like this! I can't- I can't-i can't lose you like this. You promised we would grow old together! Please Lisa! I can't burry our dau-daughter alone! Please!"

Please.

Marcus and Charlotte walked to the McDonald that was down the street. Silent as they walked. You can only hear cars passing and their footsteps. Marcus looked at her, she had tears stains on her cheek and her lips were dry. He placed his arm around her shoulder. Charlotte looked at him than smiled a bit. They went in McDonald than got food for everyone, including Angela, Flash, lil henry, TJ and Trey.

As they walked out, Charlotte took Marcus hand and placed a kiss on it. Marcus smirked a bit.

"What was that for?" He asked her.

"I just wanted to say thank you. I've been a pain and I'm so grateful to have you." They stopped walking, staring at each other. "Marcus, I don't normally say this cause you the one that always brings it's up but I truly do love you. And I'm foolish for not letting us be together. I guess you can say that this situation that Lisa and Trey are in made me realize that....life was short and I want to spend it with you. I want you only Marcus. You mean everything to me besides the baby. Both off y'all are my everything. I wanted you to know that." She said smiling at him. Marcus smiled back than leaned in and kissed her.

Angela coughed out, Flash rubbed her back. She was not getting worse but it scares her and flash when she coughs out and loses her breath. Angela pushed flash hand to her thigh as she laid back on the hospital bed.

"I hate being here." She spoke looking at him. Flash laughed a bit staring at his Queen.

"You beating this shit though. You look much better than before." He said encouraging her. The truth was that, Angela was loosing weight, she started loosing her hair so she always wore a huge hat to hide her baldness even though Flash still loved her.

"Do I... Do I still look Beautiful to you Flash?" Angela asked shyly looking down at her nails. Flash smiled shaking his head.

"No" Angela's head shot up looking at him feeling hurt but his answer. "You look sexy" she ended smiling, blushing. "Like a goddess. My mamacita. Mamacita where you are ain't? I've been tryna reach ya." Flash sang Tyga 'Mamacita.' Making Angela blush even more.

"Stop. My cheeks hurt" she whined.

"Okay, buh' foe'real you look amazin' sweetheart. Your hair is gonna come back." He said.

"You think so? For now, if I come out this dump. I'm thinking about a wig that looks kinda like my hair. Remember I have black, curly long hair so if you don't mind. Can you pick the right one?" She asked.

"Wait, you meh ta' go out dea an' look fa' that wig?" He asked. Angela nodded rubbing her head. She didn't put on her hat this time. When Marcus saw her without her hair, he cried with her.

"Yeah." She said.

"Alright buh' than I'm gonna buy a nice ass thong, ya' have ta' model fa' meh. Wit' ya wig." He said making Angela laugh. Just than Marcus and Charlotte walked in with food.

"Hey! Hey!" Charlotte greeted smiling.

"Sis!" Angela screamed. Charlotte paused for a sec looking at Angela. It's been months since they saw each other and in face time Angela had on a hat always. Charlotte knew that it was cause her hair was out but seeing her face to face without the hat, it pained her but she forced a smile than wobbled to Angela and hugged her.

"Wow! Look at you looking all better." Charlotte said being honest even though she had no hair.

"Thanks. My man here got me." Angela said cheesing. Marcus throw  her burger at her causing flash to laugh as he shoved two chips in his mouth. Angela glared at both of them.

"I'm gonna go give Trey and TJ. I'll be back." Marcus said glaring back t Angela.

"Y'all play too much."
