A Broken Society

Chapter 37

Mackenzie's POV
*Some point in the week*

Right now me, Mom, and Aunt Mary are rechecking over the house for anything me and Kimberly or the inspection people missed before. "It looks all good" Mom says "Are you buying it?" The real estate agent asks "Yes" I say and we did all the things we had to do now all we need is Kimberly's signature.

"Mom and Auntie thank you for helping me and Kimberly throughout this whole process." I say "Your growing up so fast and you wanna become independent so of course we'll help you." Mom says "And Kimberly is a sweet girl, I've known her for three years and she knew what community me and Michelle are from but she still did it. And now they got an unstoppable love so you better watch out." Auntie says and I laughed

"Now that you got the house I brought the couch that you and Kimberly decided on as a birthday gift to both of you." Mom says "Thanks Mom" I say "I'll buy your table so you and Kimberly can worry about your other problems." Auntie says and I hug both of them.

It's been a week she still hasn't woken up and she's in a coma so we don't know when she'll wake up. I hope she wakes up by next week I really miss her and her voice. "Mackenzie when will Kimberly wake up?" Michelle asks "I don't know Michelle but I really miss her." I tell her "Me too" she says kissing Kimberly's head and I kissed her cheek before we left.

"Hey Dad" I say "Hey Mack and Michelle." He says and she waved "She's all yours" he says as he roll the stroller to me. She was sleeping so I said bye to dad and we went home. "She's up now can I hold her?" Michelle asks so I give her Ryan. "Hey Mack I just came from the hospital" Kayla says as she walks in. "We was there earlier" I say

"How do you feel?" She asks "I just really miss her" I say as I take a fussy Ryan from Michelle. I change her then put on Doc McStuffins for her which kept her and Michelle quiet. "She'll wake up soon we just gotta be patient." She says "Yeah I know but how long? Nobody knows when she'll wake up." I say "I know and they found the person who hit her apparently he works at her dad's job." Kayla says

"Kiara told me her parents didn't tell him to do and she said when her dad found out he was glad that he was caught." I say then Kayla pulls me to my room "So they care about their daughters but kill them if they date gay people.....that's messed up." She says and I nod then we go back to the girls and feed them. "She likes vegetables" I say "Don't be a vegetarian" Kayla says

"She's not, your mom said you loved these and now look at you-" "A carnivore?" "No you dummy an omnivore if you only ate meat you would die." I say and she laughs "After this you two are going to take a nap." I tell Michelle and Ryan "Yeah but you might wanna change her." Kayla says

"Nope your turn" I say as I give her Ryan and it was funny watching her. "I hate you so much" she tells me "I love you too" I say and she rolls her eyes before going to wash her hands. I took Ryan's shirt off because she got poop on it and I didn't feel like putting a shirt back on her so she fell asleep with only her diaper on.

"I'm taking a nap too" Kayla says and I opened my arms for her and she came in them. "Don't worry Mack we'll figure something out." She says before we go to sleep.

I woke up to the sound something hitting the floor. "Sorry Mack" Mateo says "Where did you guys go?" I ask "Food shopping and we got your m&m cookies." He says as he gives them to me "Thank you" I say then go check on the girls. Ryan was laying there playing with her feet "Hi Ryan" I say and she gets excited.

"Hi pretty girl, how long have you been up?" I asked her then I started blowing raspberries into her stomach which was making her laugh. Then I put her down for belly time while playing music. "Aw she's dancing" Mom says "When are you going to have a baby?" I asked her "Do you know how old I am?" She asks "Yeah 36 now when?" I asked "Bye Mackenzie" she says and I laughed.

"Come on time for your bottle" I say as I pick Ryan up and give her her bottle. "You want one?" I ask Kayla as I hold up the cookies "Thank you" she says as she takes two. "Don't mind if I do" Mateo says as he take Ryan and go in his room. Michelle came out and laid on me "What have you girls been up to today?" Mom asks "We went to go see Kimberly" Michelle says and mom looks at me and I shake my head.

"How about we go get her some flowers and cards for when she wakes up?" Mom asks and we all nod "And balloons" Michelle says "She got like twenty balloons in her room I don't think we need more." Mateo says now we're at the hospital "Hey Kiara" I say as I hug her.

"Hey guys who's this?" She asks "This is our little sister Ryan" Mateo says "Aw she looks like you Mackenzie." "Told you" I say to mom and she rolls her eyes before putting the flowers in a vase with water and the card on the table. "Your here by yourself?" Kayla asked "Not really one of my cousins left while the other is in the bathroom." She says then Natalie walked in "Hey Mackenzie" "Hey Natalie" I say

"You know each other?" Mateo asks "Yeah I got the pleasure of meeting her and her cousins." She says and we just basics catch up on some stuff but now I'm taking Ryan home. "How was she?" Dad asked "She was amazing she fussed a little but other than that we was good. Ryan you wanna tell Dad how you was dancing while having tummy time?" I asked her and she smiled which made drool come out which I wiped.

"She must be teething" I say "Yeah she was crying earlier and it was bad." Rebecca says "Aw at least it's better now." I say as I kiss Ryan's cheek "Mack your stuff comes in tomorrow I sent it to your mother's house." Dad says and it took me a minute to understand what he was talking about. "Thank you Dad" I say and he hug me "Your going to be 18" "Yeah" "How's Kimberly?" He asks

"She didn't wake up yet but I know she will cause she's strong." "You stay strong too." He says and I nod then hug them bye and go home
