Scrap POV
"Man you finally up I thought I lost yo ass" I laughed looking at Dess on the hospital bed
"Is Kairi ok?"she asked shaking
"Everyone's fine but damn gangsta I ain't never thought you would be getting shot" I chuckled trying to lighten the mood
"How long have I been in the hospital ?"she asked
" don't worry about that you good now - Scrap how long" She cut me off
"Did East come visit me?"she asked with a sad look
"Listen man even though he care about you, you hurt Dess... now you know you my dawg I'm always on yo side but just give East some space " I told her
"So he didn't come" she sighs with a disappointment look
"You going home today though " I told her
"Okay" she said
"Yo Dess at least act happy in front of Kairi she don't wanna see you all depressed " I told her
"Scrap I fucked up big time oh my Gosh" She started crying
"Listen...listen...listen.. we all make mistakes, if anything you were helping that Hakeem nigga because you seen East killed enough people, it's life you gon make mistakes and some of them will lead to people not fucking with you, but no matter what you do Dess, in my eyes you my dawg and I'm forever on yo side" I said to her
"East will hate me more now "She cried again
"Worry about that later man, come on get ready to go see your daughter " I pat her back

"Just come back in a few weeks so we can check the wound after that bye have a great day" The nurse said
"Thank you"I said getting inside Scrap car
"You want something to eat or go straight home? "He asked
"Scrap I know you're trying to make me laugh but now's not the time I'm tired just drive" I said and pushed the seat back
He turned the radio off and the whole ride home was quiet as hell
