* Sage James
* 21 years old
The only reason why I didn't beat Hezekiah no good ass because all these damn machines I'm connected to
Soon as I get out of here, it's on and poppin. I'm done with him. I swear, I can't do this anymore. He uses my past to get back at me. Like okay. I know what I did. Am I proud of it? Of course not
I held back my tears. Sage Claire James will never shed a tear over a no good nigga.
"Sage how you doing" Dr. Matters asked me. I gave him a fake smile "I'm doing good" He checked my pulse "That's great"
He flipped through his papers on his clipboard "Well it's definitely a blessing that you are alive right now, all that Vicodin in your system plus you bust your head open" He said . I nodded my head
"Unfortunately you miscarried" Dr.Matters said. "I-i didn't even know I was expecting"
"It was very early sometimes it take a while for pregnancy symptoms to show up" Dr.Matters added "How far along was I?" I asked
He looked down at his clipboard scanning through the paper "Three weeks" I nodded my head looking down at my hands.
Dr. Matters stayed for another five minutes checking me out, making sure my healing process was on the right track.
I don't know what I would do with a baby. Hezekiah and I are not on good terms, we honestly need therapy. But then again I wished my baby would have lived
"Fuck" I yelled out as tears ran down my face. Fuck my life. I have no reason to live anymore. No one loves me. No one gives a shit about me. Why do I need to still be here on earth. I'm done. Fuck everything
Three days later
I am finally out of the hospital. Most depressing three days ever. My memory is back to normal. I just have to comeback in a couple of days to remove my stitches then I'm leaving. Back to Chi-raq
I called Hezekiah but his phone keep going straight to voicemail so I called Courtney to come pick me up from the hospital
The nurse wheeled me from my room to in front of the hospital. Courtney got out the car walking over to me. I thanked the nurse as Courtney helped me out the wheel chair into the car
"How you feeling?" Court asked driving away from the hospital "Better" Of course Court knows what's going on between King and I and of course she wants to put a bullet in him
"You heard from Hezekiah?" I asked Court, nervously playing with my hands. She sighed putting both hands on the wheel "We haven't heard from him in three days and Madelyn flew out a couple of days ago and she's worried"
"W-what" I asked "The last time anybody saw him was at the club" Court said. "We have to find him" I demanded
"Like I tell Madelyn don't worry. He's probably laying low taking time for himself"
I tried letting what Court said calm my nerves but that wasn't working. This wasn't making sense.
"Alright I'll come and get you in a few" Court said getting off the elevator. "Okay" I covered my mouth as I yawn slipped out. I patiently waited for the elevator doors open to my floor
I reached in my pocket pulling out my key card, entering the room. I tossed my items on the table as I walked in
I made my way to the bathroom cutting the shower on. As the water warmed up, I stripped out my clothes looking at my naked figure in the mirror
My bruises are slowly healing from where King grabbed me. I slightly turned around, moving my hair around so I could see my stitches.
"Stay strong" I told myself. I cut the speaker on before I stepped into the shower
Help me baby
Hate the way I'm feelin', pain killers in the cup
Pray to God I wanna end it, seems I don't believe in much
Nobody did nothin' for me when I’m on my knuckles
Quick to tell a nigga fuck 'em, I come up from nothin'
Bad dreams, heart cold, sick of lookin' out
Best niggas slow to major and they lookin' frowned
Goin' shoppin', buyin' belts, even help them out
You was not real nigga, you dependin' if your loyalty is bought
I stepped out the shower wrapping the towel around my wet body. I walked out to the room, digging through my suitcase looking for something comfortable to sleep in

I woke up seeing it was 4:56 Damn that nap was needed. I pulled the covers off and stretched.
I opened the door letting Court in. She told me about Mark as I got ready putting something simple on but still looking cute
"Hey Mrs. Bazemore" I said hugging King's mother tightly. She hugged me back "I missed you" I pulled back and smiled "How are you feeling?" She asked
"Hundred times better" I said walking into the elevator with them.
I sipped on my ice-t, enjoying dinner with Madelyn and Court. "This is from the young man at the bar" The waitress said placing a drink in front of me
I looked up seeing Jason smiling at me. I smiled and mouth thank you to him. Court raised her eyebrow at me but I ignored it
"You okay?" Court asked me. Sweat filled my face and I became weak "I think I ate something that didn't agree with me" I said
"Let's get you back to the hotel" Madelyn said helping me out the booth. I rest my head on Court shoulders as the Uber drove us back
Madelyn opened my door as Court held me up. She placed me on the bed, taking off my shoes. I turned over on my stomach closing my eyes
"Call me if you need anything" I nodded my head.
I felt my body being picked up being placed over someone shoulders. I couldn't do anything I was too weak. I tried opening my eyes but I couldn't
A slight pain hit in my neck. Minutes later I was out....
