Broken

Chapter 33: Hard

{Joy}

I've been thinking bout ya
Are you thinking bout me?
I know I went crazy
But you were wrong
I apologize, I'll let it go tonight
Forgive me and I'll forgive you

Hard to Do
K. Michelle

I slowly open my eyes and they are meet with a bright light, it hurts. I close them and try again. As I open them I look around and see I'm in a hospital bed.  I look out the window and I see the night sky but I can tell the morning is soon approaching.

"Hey Doll" I look over at the door and I see Carmen walk in dressed in a nurses outfit.  "How you feel" she walks up to me.

"Ok" I try to lean up but I feel a sharp pain in my side.

"Hey you can't be doing all of that moving. You were shot on your side" she says.

"Where is everyone" I ask her but she looks very bothered about something else. She grabs my hand and looks at me.

"Joy, did you know you were pregnant" she says.

"Carmen, what no" I look at her crazy there is not possible way I was pregnant, I mean there is but no, just no.

"Joy, you were and you lost your baby, you were about 4 weeks" she says. That means it happen the second time we had sex. My heart is in my back. I would have had a baby with King?

"Do they know, King and them" I ask him.

"The crew know but King is not here. Want them to come in" She says. I lay back and turn my head, I feel a tear run down my face, but I don't wipe it away. I'm to tired and drained to do that. Why is he not here.

"I guess" I lowly tell her. Then she walks out the room. I lift up the covers and look down and see have a bandage over the side of my stomach. I travel my fingers up and down my stomach.

{King}

"Yo Alex what the fuck happened back there" I ask her following her to her car parked on the side of the warehouse.

"The job is done King, ok. Now if you want to talk about us we can do that" she turns around and walk up on me.

"Alex, my girl is at the hospital and can wake up any minute now, tell me so I can go" I tell her because my patience are running thin.

"Fine, you're no fun. I killed Dean and left. There you go" she smiles and gets in her car.

"How did Joy end up shot in that room" I ask her leaning on her car.

"I don't fucking know, damn. When I left Dean was shot dead maybe one of his workers" she says.

"The building was clear, it was only him and three guys" I tell her, because Killa and and Ron went to go get Joy and I went with Alex to go kill Dean. I had to split away from Alex to go kill a guy and collect the camera tape. I went to go find Alex in Dean office but there was no Alex it was just Joy laying on the ground bleeding out.

"Stay around here, ight" I tell her and she drives off, if she had anything to do with Joy her ass is dead.

I finally run to my car and head to the hospital. I go into the hospital and walk up to the front desk.

"Where is Joy Grant room" I ask the lady at the desk but she didn't look up, she only looked at the computer.

"And you are" she asked.

"Family" I tell her.

"They already left" she finally looks up.

"Look, that's my girl where she at" I ask her about to just go back there.

"King" I hear some say, I look up and see Carmen. "It's ok, Tammy. Come on" she says and I follow her.

"How she doing" I ask her.

"She doing good, but y'all have to talk" she turns around and tell me.

"About what" I ask as we stand in front of a half open door. She pulls me to the side.

"King, she was pregnant" she says and opens the door for me to walk in. Damn, I don't even know how to feel. This is most definitely not the time for kids, but with Joy. I never thought about it.

I walk in a see her laying on the bed, awake.

"You finally came" she gave me a weak smile.

"Of course baby girl" I walk over to her and sit in front of her.

She turns and look at me then looks away, "when were you going to tell me" I ask her

"I didn't know" she says wiping her tears away. I lean back and wipe my face with my hand, this is all to much right now.

"Where were you" she looks at me.

"Joy not right now" I say not in the mood to explain.

"Damn, I can't even get a explanation" she chuckles and roll her eyes.

"Explanation for what"

"Why you weren't here when I woke up, why you were not even here for about 2 hours" she yells, man I not in the mood to argue.

"Joy I was handling shit damn" I tell her, putting my hand behind my head.

"Yea, ight. I was by your side 24/7 when you were at the hospital but fuck me right, I was hurt when I woke up and you where not here" she says and I look at her crazy is she for real right now.

"You fucking playing right, don't even act thing that" I tell her, because she must be playing.

"King, just go" she says and turns away from me.

"Yo wish is my command" I get up and leave and slam the door behind me. I don't got time for this.
