"I don't want them to die, man. I know I've been fucking up but I want to make it better." He broke down crying. I stood there wondering what I should do next, shit I was trying to keep myself together at this point. I sighed wrapping my arms around him.

"You gotta be strong for them. It's gone be alright. Kody was in that car bro. We gotta be strong for them." I walked over to the desk and just my luck, Miss Beverly typing at the computer. "Miss Beverly."

"Hello, David. Nice to see you again."

"I need information on Paisley Jones, Kody Brewster, and Rosalina." I didn't know Rose last name.

"Paisley and Kody are right across the hall. I'm afraid Rosalina is in intensive care at the moment."

I didn't say anything else but go to the little room she pointed to pulling back the curtains. I seen Kody laying in the small bed laughing with a cast on his arm.

"Daddy!" He jumped up quickly. "Look at my arm."

"No, lay back down." I gently pushed him back down. I kissed his forehead thanking God he was alright. Paisley was in the chair beside him. She looked perfectly fine to me. "Paisley, are you okay? What happened?"

"I'm fine. Just having small cramps." She frowned rubbing her stomach. She didn't get to finish because Mike busted in.

"Paisley! I'm sorry man. Are you okay?" He rushed her with questions getting on his knees hugging her stomach. I was shocked that he was Paisley baby father. This shit is blowing my mind. Then him begging on his knees? He never has done no shit like that before. He a hoe and been one all his life.

"I'm fine." She removed his arms.

"I wanna be in y'all lives. I'm sorry for not being there for you. I was just scared."

"My bestfriend is fighting for her life. I don't have time for this now." She looked off the side covering her face crying. "Everything was fine. Kody and Paisley were in the back playing a game on her phone. I was driving to drop him off when a car came out of nowhere smashing into the passenger side. From what the paramedics told me, Rose shielded Kody the best way she could, taking everything. They don't know if she's going to make it."

I sat there stunned because I couldn't believe anything that was coming out of her mouth.

"Fuck man." I put my head into my hands.

"Knock, knock." A cheerful nurse said opening the curtains. "I'm Nurse Monica, I just wanted to go over Kodys medication. Are you dad?"

"Yes."

"I'm writing him off medicine for pain. He will have to take it three times a day. He also will have to wear the cast for three weeks or longer, depending on how quickly it heals. He took a pretty bad hit, it's a miracle a broken arm is all he got. Now all you have to do is go to the pharmacy and give them that." She ripped off the paper giving it to me. "I'll go get his discharge papers."
