Shawn POV

While Layla was sleep her phone begin to ring. I looked at the caller ID and it said Ennis.

I answered the phone

"Hello" I said

"Hello who is this?" He said breathing heavily

"This her um, friend Shawn" I said

"Please bring Layla to the hospital! Liyla just had a asthma attack!" He yelled

"Oh shit! What hospital!?" I said pulling on my pants

"The one by CVS and Quick Trip" he said

"Iight we're on our way" I said

I put her phone down and shook her .

"Layla wake up please! Liyla just had a asthma attack!" I yelled

She popped her head up and jumped out the bed . She quickly got dressed. I just on a jacket since I couldn't find my shirt . We quickly got in my car and I sped off to the hospital.

-

We arrived there five minutes later. We rushed inside the hospital and we meet up I guess with Ennis .

"Ennis where is she!? Where's my baby!?" She yelled

Then the doctor can out.

"Family of Liyla" he said

Layla sprinted towards him.

"Please tell me that she's okay!" She screamed

"I'm sorry ma'am. We tried to bring her back but nothing was working . It seems as if she had a panic attack." He said

"Yes sir, before she  was brought here. She was crying for her mommy and daddy? And she threw a temper tantrum. I tried to get her to calm down, then she start to breath hard. Then few seconds later she begin to weez. I couldn't find her asthma pump in her night bag. I called 911 and y'all brought her here." Ennis said

"I'm sorry ma'am she didn't pull through. I was told while she was in the ambulance truck she completely stop breathing. The medical team tried their best. By the time they arrived here she passed away." He said

Layla stood there shaking her head.

"Thank you sir" she said as her voice crack

"If you would like to see her-"

"No thank you" she said before walking off.

"Thank you man for bring my sis here. Well she's like a sister to me" he said

"Anytime" I said

We exchange number just in case... No gay shit. 

I caught up to Layla. We got inside the car and I drove back to her house.

When we got there she walked inside the house. I heard glass shattering.

I ran inside the house and she was hitting everything with a bat .

"I hate my life ! " she cried

"God just take me! Kill me." She yelled

"Layla baby stop" I said

"Shawn just kill me" she said handing me the bat.

"No baby girl." I said

I grabbed the bat and threw it down. I pulled her into a tight hug

"I don't have my daughter nor mother. Who's gonna die now? You? Ennis?" She cried

"Shhh" I said calming her down.

I picked her up and place he back in my car. I locked up her house and drove to my house.

When I got to my house, I knew my homeboys was here because I see my lights on.  I picked up Layla bridal style and walked into the house.

I closed the door and placed Layla on my couch. I went into the kitchen where they was smoking. I heard little footsteps behind me. I turned around and Layla was in a big t shirt. I'm wondering how the hell she change that fast?

"Can I have a blunt?" She asked the boys .

They gave her the stuff to roll up. She grabbed the stuff and start to roll up. She lit the blunt and sat by a window. I seen tears roll down her face as she smoked. I sat down beside my nigga Trill. I sighed .

"What happened?" He asked

"Man, her daughter just died too" I said

"Real shit?" My nigga TK said

"Yeah man, and she was already calling me daddy . They said she had a panic attack at first because she wanted me and Layla ." I said

I barely even knew the girl and this shit hurts. She wasn't even my biological child. But it felt good being someone's father . Spoiling her and buying her things.

I felt a hot liuqid roll down my face.

"Damn bruhh, you haven't even known the baby girl for a whole month and it's hitting the weak spot on you. " Trill said

Layla crawled on my lap and hugged my waist.

"She was my everything. " she said lowly

"I know. I know ma"

"I wanna die so I can be with my mama and baby girl." She cried

"Layla everything happens for a reason ma. It's gonna be okay" Trill said
