A Thugs Daughter

Chapter 9

Brianna POV

I just woke up and I'm in a hospital room. I was a little confused at first but then everything started coming back to me. The video and everything. Me being hit in the mouth and my tooth going into my lip. I tried to open my mouth to say something but it hurt.

My dad saw that I was awake and he came to my side.

Dad: Hey baby girl. How you feeling?

I held my thumb out and upside down.

I feel like shit.

He called the nurse.

She came in and came over to me.

Nurse: Hi Brianna. I know you can't talk right now so just nod your head or give me a thumbs up or down, okay?

I gave her a thumbs up.

Nurse: How bad is your pain? Thumbs up if it's really bad, middle if its moderate, and thumbs down if it doesn't really hurt.

I gave her a thumbs up because my mouth hurts.

Nurse: Okay. We'll get you some pain meds to get it under control.

She turned to walk out to go get the meds and it was just me and my dad in the room.

I tapped him and pointed to the notepad and pin that was sitting on the table across the room.

He handed it to me.

I wrote: Dad I'm sorry.

I showed it to him.

Dad: I know you are and it's okay baby girl.

I grabbed the notebook and wrote another note.

Note: Dad I hope you still love me after that video. I know I disappointed you.

He read it and pulled me into a hug.

Dad: Nothing will ever make me stop loving you baby girl. You're my princess. Yes I am a little disappointed and we will be having a conversation once you're all better but don't ever think that I stopped loving you simply because you made a mistake.

I wrote down: I love you dad.

Dad: I love you baby girl.

The nurse came in and gave me some meds through an IV. I slowly but surely started to feel the pain go away.

The doctors said I will be able to go home today, I just have to finish my IV first. I won't be able to talk for a few days or eat any solid food but I will be fine after a week or so.

They also didn't have to pull my full tooth out. They just had to cut a portion of it off. It still hurts tho. They have to give me my prescription in liquid form to make it easier for me.

Once my IV was done, they brought in my paperwork and then my dad took me home.

All my siblings and my uncles were there waiting for us.

Dakarai was the first one to run up and hug me.

I hugged him back and then looked at his hand which had a cast on it.

I looked up at him and pointed to it.

Dakarai: It's nothing. I just got a small fracture from punching him.

I hugged him again. I wish I could talk. I'm so sorry. I didn't want my brother out here fighting. And I know my dad is really mad and someone is going to probably end up hurt.
