Armani laid in her hospital bed just staring at the blank, white wall. She had been here for hours and had refused to speak to anyone. When the gang had filed in, questioning and worrying she had found it to be too much and kicked them all out. They had looked at her with shock and sadness but deep down they all understood why she wanted to be alone. She had suffered something traumatic over something that wasn't her business. Insomnia had crippled her and she had not been able to sleep since the incident.
Outside her hospital room, everyone sat with worry plastered all over their faces. "This is all your fault, she was fine before you came into her life", Amirah yelled towards LK. "No one would have touched a hair on her head before you, I know this was a targeted attack all because of you", she tried to lunge at him before JB grabbed her. "Ay chill out man", he whispered to her. She returned to her seat on his lap with a scowl on her face muttering and cursing under her breath.
LK just sat with a blank expression on his face, he knew deep down that it was his fault. He should have dropped her home he thought to himself. He hadn't been able to sleep since he got the call from JB last night. He had felt his heart shatter seeing her laid up in bed with the bruises and bandages all over her body.
The cold look she had shot at him when she kicked them out the room was all he needed to confirm that he was the reason she was laid up in a hospital bed.
LK's POV
Just as we were getting back on track, this happens. This shit was starting to get on my nerves. I know this was the revenge for Charmz, we were now stuck in this cycle. They touched my girl though. My beautiful girlfriend.
There's no way we were letting this slide. Going to have to deal with them, every single one of them until there is no one left. This was a battle that wasn't going to end well. Guys were gonna have to die and it certainly wasn't gonna be anyone on my side.
I never thought they would come for Marni though. She's innocent in all of this, I didn't even know if she was gonna still be with me after all this. I cheat then the day she forgives me she ends up in hospital. I wouldn't blame her if she wanted to get rid of me especially since all her girls hate me now. Me and Amirah had become close and it was burning me that she hated me now but it is my own fault.
I needed to see Armani. I needed to let her know that I was sorry this happened to her and I desperately needed her to forgive me.
Armani's POV
I didn't mean to shout at all of them but I desperately need my space. I'm tired and I'm in pain, just couldn't be bothered with human interaction. I saw the hurt in LK's eyes but I can't deal. Not when he's the reason I'm here. Is this a sign that we shouldn't be together? I couldn't even think properly, my head was banging. I had tried to sleep since I'd been brought here but anytime I closed my eyes I just saw the man's figure in front of me. Was I going to be traumatised forever?
My thoughts were interrupted by a soft knock on my hospital door. I didn't really wanna see anyone to be honest. "It's Mirah", I heard and sighed in relief. Even though I didn't wanna see anyone, I didn't really mind my sister. "Come in", I managed to croak out. I stared at her as she walked into the room. She had a gloomy, miserable expression on her face, bags under her red eyes, she had been crying. She came to stand my bed and tears began flowing from her eyes. Amirah never cries, she didn't like to show that she was soft so for her to be crying now. I felt a tear leave my eye.
"I'm so sorry I wasn't there Marns, I shoulda heard something", she cried out as she hugged me. "It's okay", I told her. I knew she would blame herself and I knew the next person she was going to blame was LK. "It's bad enough he cheats but now he's the reason you're in this bed, I swear to God Armani if not for Jeremiah I woulda broken his head", she ranted and I laughed at her overprotectiveness. "I forgave him so you can too Amirah", I tried to reason with her only to be met with a death stare from her.
I decided not to press the issue, they would make up in their own time. Right now everything just needed to die down, I also needed my space but first I needed to talk to him. "Tell him to come in please and give us a minute", I asked her as she looked at me warily. "Please Amirah", I pleaded and she turned to leave the room.
LK's POV
"She wants to see you", Amirah said to me with a glare. She proceeded to kiss her teeth as I got up. She was petty but whatever.
I was slyly shook to go inside, didn't know if I was gonna get screamed at or what. I entered her room and the sight of her, I felt my heart shatter. She looked so fragile, tired and broken. She gave me a half smile and gestures for me to come closer.
"I'm sorry I'm so sorry I should have dropped you home", I began to ramble until she told me to shutup. "I know you're sorry already, you don't need to keep saying it", she said with slight attitude. You'd think her being in a hospital bed would mean her attitude would be nonexistent but no here she is being rude. I was happy she was back to her old self though.
"I'm going to need to take a step back from this relationship, I'll be real everything is just too much and I can't deal" That hurt my feelings but I couldn't blame her because she was literally here just because she was my girlfriend. I care about her too much to let her go though but I would let her do her thing.
" I understand, you can hit me up whenever you're ready", I said to her. She nodded and closed her eyes, I took that as my sign for me to leave. I turned back to her one more time, "I love you" I reassured her. "I love you too", she shouted back to me. My heart cooled down, she still loves me so we will be good. I'll make sure of it. By the time she's ready, everything with these guys will be done. They're not gonna know what hit them by the time I'm done.
