Thru It All

Chapter 22

CAIRO

Here I was back in this damn hospital, stressed the fuck out on what would be the outcome this time around. I don't know what Chanel was thinking not to pick her head up before just walking out infront of a whole car. The ambulance came quicker than ever thankfully but the way she was laying there almost made me stop breathing. She looked dead and she dropped too quick for me to catch her. The car that hit her sped off but I'd find it before the police did and make sure they wouldn't even be able to close they eyes at night, shit they'd probably keep they eyes shut forever after I got done.

Its funny that she was next to me when we were waiting for Shano and now I was the only one who could wait for her. It was nobody else to call this time. Where ever Shano went after he left earth I was hoping he'd find her and send her ass back and as stubborn as she'd probably be I was hoping she would listen to him.

As fucked up as it may sound I wasn't worried about the baby, shit it wasn't even developed yet and we could always try again if she wanted to. My phone vibrated and I slid it out looking at the message across the screen.

Unknown: Is Chanel okay? I saw what happened

I decided not to answer this time around, it was nobody else concern but mine right now. The doctor came out looking directly at me, he already knew who I was. I got up meeting him half way, he looked worried but not the same expression he'd had for Shano.

"I have good news and bad news" he said flipping the papers on his keyboard.

"Okay then get on with it" I said already annoyed, this nigga was taking too long to get to the point.

" Good news is she'll be okay, a few scratches and she'll be sore for a little while as expected after bein hit but...the fetus was unable to be saved...We had to induce labor to get it out of her, I'm sor-"

"Aye just take me to her bruh I really don't wanna hear all that other shit" He looked surprised but I didn't care, all that mattered was she was alive and would be okay, a little traumatized but she'd be alright which meant we'd be alright.

He led me through the doors and down to her room, she had a few bandages on her arms and one on her head along with the IV. They had her propped up and the best part was that she was awake. I pulled up a chair a bit closer to her bed grabbing her hand but she snatched away.

"Please do not touch me right now" She mumbled not even turning to look at me. What the fuck.

CHANEL

I was in pain everywhere. I couldn't remember much about what happened until the doctor explained everything. I lost the baby, it felt like a lost a piece of me and the worst part was I put all the blame on myself. Not Cairo, and not even the person that hit me, it was all my fault and I knew it'd be hard to accept that. Even though I hadn't even known what I was having yet I still felt that bond and now it had been snatched away in just a few seconds of careless thinking.

I think the part that made me even more angry and letting myself get to the point where I could be so careless in protecting my body. Being so bothered by what Cairo had said that I allowed mhself to get off track and fuck everything up. Now he was here next to me and didn't have an ounce of pain to deal with, he probably didn't even care that we just lost our child. I hadn't even gotten a chance to start looking for much baby stuff and now I wouldn't look for a long time.

Everything happens for a reason, maybe it was Karma for something I'd done I wasn't sure and my head hurt too much to process anything other than more pain. I turned my head slowly shielding myself from Cairo staring at me, I didn't give a fuck about what he was thinking, I don't even know why he showed up.

"So this what we doing now huh" He said with bitterness covering every single word.

"Cairo I'm done with you" I whispered barely able to believe myself. He didn't say anything at first, all that was heard was the tv playing through the remote.

"You know what fuck it, I'm done trying with you I put my life on the line daily for you, protect you, feed you, give you everything you want and need and you still act like this, ain't no changing that shit I don't need you" he got up slanging the chair against the wall making me jump.

" I don't need YOU either! I didn't ask for any of this shit!" I yelled back straining my voice. He didn't even look back as he walked out slamming the door behind him. My heart was beating out of my chest and my breath was short and rapid, I didn't want to cry over him but my body begged to differ and soon the tears came nonstop. I sank back into my pillow letting them fall and closing my eyes, out of all the scratches and bruises I had, the ones on my heart hurt the most.
