MAY(POV)

"Family of Ms.Gamble," the doctor said as he came out the door.

"Yes I'm here,"I said as I got up out the chair.

"I'm sorry but Ms.Gamble didn't make it. She lost too much blood and there was nothing we can do. We couldn't do a blood transfer because of the amount of blood she lost the next person could end up dying as well,"he said.

Everything went black right at that exact moment.

I jumped up out my sleep to realize it was a dream. Toosii rushed over towards me asking me am I okay with a Arby's bag in his hand.

"I'm okay. I just had a bad dream that Hannah died,"I said as I started crying again.

"She won't die. Hannah is a strong girl she got this,"Toosii said. "Now here I got you some too eat I didn't know what you liked from there so I got a buffalo crispy chicken sandwich meal with curly fries since you like hot food. Eat this and calm down Hannah got this."

"Okay thank you,"I said I grabbed the food and started to open it up. I was really starving since my appetite was back. I watched as Toosii ate his food and scrolled down his phone. I really appreciated him for all that he does for me he is like the one of the best friends that I would ask for when I was a kid.

I charged up Hannah phone too see that she was in touch with her but she didn't tell me. I didn't want to be nosey and see what they were talking about but I was kinda hesitant on whether I should call her and tell her about Hannah. I said fuck it and called anyways.

"Hello,"she said into the phone.

"Hey this May,"I said into the phone.

"Oh hey May I haven't heard from you in a long time,"she said.

I almost said well duh you didn't think to call your child so how could you hear from me but that wasn't my place.

"Yeah I know it's been a while I'm actually calling about Hannah she is in the hospital. I found her laying in bed in a lot of blood. I rushed her to the hospital and they don't know if she will make it or not."

"Oh my gosh I am on my way. Please just keep me updated until I make it there. Thanks for calling me."

"No problem,"I said as I hung up the phone.

I finished eating my food as I sat there I waited on Hannah's mom to come. My mind was everywhere I couldn't stop thinking about my baby and Hannah but I refused to let this bring me down again. I will have my baby and Hannah will be okay. I feel as if this is God's way of testing but now I'm built for it the devil will no longer win.

Toosii was scrolling down his phone and I was just looking at my surroundings until I seen Hannah's mom walk through the door with a little girl that looked like Hannah.

"Hey May honey,"she said as she walked over to give me a hug.

"Hey,"I said as I hugged her back.

"They haven't said anything yet? I want to know what happened to her now,"she said getting upset.

"No they haven't came out yet. I want too know to but there's nothing we can do but just wait," I said.

"Who's this little cutie pie?" I asked referring to the little girl.

"Oh uh this Emily,"Hannah's mom said.

"No that's not my name my name is Hannah,"the little girl said.

"Wow. Nice too meet you Hannah. You're a cutie pie,"I said not trying to make things more awkward.

"Thank you. Is my sister going to be okay? I asked my daddy can I see my sister one day and he said I don't have one but mom says I do and dad said that I am the only Hannah he loves,"she said.
