"I've been going out my rabid ass mind. My baby really been in a coma for two months", Mack's mom says staring down at Mack.
He has all these tubes and ivy's inserted in his body. Due to the bullet traveling, he suffered a lot of internal bleeding and his lung was also punctured. He was in surgery for a couple of days, when we first brought him here. Doctors said it would take some time for him to wake up, but ian think it would be this long. Now it's just me and his mom in the room. His dad went back to grab more clothes, while everybody else is where they at. Everybody makes it their business to come see Mack at least 5x a week.
"It's goin be okay Momma Kay. Mack goin make it."
"How you know that Zyhair? It's my fault my baby is in this mess in the first place."
"Momma Kay, how is it your fault? You ain't have nothing to do with this."
She takes a deep breath and sighs. "I'm gonna tell you a story."
"Alright."
"About 28 years ago, I had an affair."
"You cheated on Pops?", I ask in disbelief.
"Yeah. At the time, we were newlyweds and marriage was not easy. I barely saw Marcus because he was always in the streets. He would stay out all night, come back for a short time, and then disappear. It stayed like this for a couple of months. Don't get me wrong, I loved that man, I still love him, but I wanted him to be home with me. I wanted him to hold me some nights and he wasn't even there. Then I met Kyjuan. We had an instant connection. He made time for me, he loved me, and I always wanted to be around him, but he was a BDN."
"No you didn't."
"I did. I was a young girl who just got married and didn't know any better, but I have to admit that marriage isn't always easy. Besides that, yes Juan was a BDN and as you know Marcus is a GDN. I got away with the affair for a good 6 months; Marcus didn't even know until one night when I was out with Juan at a party. The look on his face when he saw me with Juan hurt me to my core. He looked so disappointed. Him and Juan eventually got into it and of course they started shooting at each other. It was a hot mess, and that's not even the worst part."
"Well come on Momma Kay. I wanna know."
"Boy hush...anyway when Marcus found out, he was so mad. I thought this man was goin hit me, he was so mad. He was breaking stuff, calling me all bitches and hoes, saying he should kill me, etc. etc."
"As he should", I say bluntly.
"But he never put his hands on me. Ever. He was too hurt to do anything. All he wanted to do was kill Juan. Things got so crazy that they start putting money on each other's head and Marcus even gave me divorce papers to sign. I couldn't even take it, so eventually I had to tell Juan that it was over. Mind you he had a whole wife at home, but we didn't care. I told him that we had to call this off because I was still in love with Marcus. Of course he didn't like that, but he understood. We agreed that we would never see each other again and we didn't."
"That's it?"
"Not even close."
"Come on momma Kay. You taking so damn long."
