I walked in and immediately dropped to my knees, my husband was hooked up to so many machines. His body looked lifeless. The beeping noise was so familiar. I walked over to Zeek and he just laid there eyes closed no movements the tears was really falling now.

"Are you always such a creep" his voice startled me. I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face. "Nah daddy only on weekdays" Zeek laughed I knew he remembered when he said that to me. "Come here" I leaned down and kissed his lips and face. "You really scared me" the tears started again. "I'm sorry ma, but I ain't going no where yet, we gotta grow old first" I love this man, everything about this man.

"Ard that's enough" Red hating as had the nerve to say.
"You a hater" I rolled my eyes. I attempted to get up but Zeek kept me in place, placing his hand on my stomach which wasn't even showing. The girls finally ran in and stole the attention. Making sure they didn't put any pressure on him while giving him hugs.

Red walked over followed by Black, and Gang. I haven't seen Gang around much. So it was bittersweet meeting up like this. "Look who the cat drug in" I got up giving him a hug. "I'm on a very important job, my fault for not being around" he was apologetic "seem like I leave and you go get shot" now he seemed angry. Zeek placed his hand back on my stomach, took in a deep breath, but remained silent. After what seemed like forever "I think my egg donor set me up" Zeek looked deep in thought. "Winter what the fuck is a egg donor, dumb ass" Black really seemed confused. Which made us all laugh. "The opposite of a sperm donor, dummy" his duh tone very evidence. Taking a minute "ooooohhhhhhhhh" Black finally caught on and we laughed more.

Zeek started coughing, I jumped up so fast to get him water. I was about to call for the nurse but he stopped me saying he was good. I settled back down and zoned out. It's like I'm torn I want him to kill the bastards that did this. But I also want him home safe with our children and I. I had too many close encounters with death and I'm now sick of it. When do enough become enough? When do the cycle of violence end? Everyday it seems I am reading or watching the news and it's shootings, school shootings, gang shootings, cop shootings and I'm so tired of it. Watched the news and a 11mon baby was shot 3 times, like what is this world coming too.

The more in thought the more my stomach turned. At this moment I truly looked at my children and realized I did not want them in this cycle. But I couldn't shake this want for revenge. Hurt me I can take it, hurt my family I want hell.

"Babe"
"Babe"
"Lanae"

I jumped to Zeek screaming my name, "boy why you yelling" I gave him a stank face. "Fix it, I called u 8 times" his ass know he lying. "Where your mind at?" He was genuinely asking. "Just a lot on my mind baby don't stress it" I realized the whole room attention on me and I hated it also noticing Drea Red wife was now here. "We talking later" his raspy whisper ignited my inner sexy, now I feel horrible my husband laid up shot and I'm thinking about riding and sucking his dick. "Hey Drea" I smiled warmly at her, she walked over embracing me in a tight hug. "Are you ok?" Voice laced with concern. "Damn, I'm the one shot and you ask her if she ok, fuck me? Huh?" Drea ignored Zeek ass turning her attention back to me. "They don't realize" yes she was loud at this point. "WE ARE affected just the same or worst" her voice calming a bit "we suffer too, we stress, worry and hurt. And when they are gone our suffering continues and theirs ended the minute of they last breathe, but our begin at our next to the day we take our last" Drea had me in tears as she cried herself. The guys all had they heads down. Zeek grip on me tightened a bit causing me to lean on his shoulder and cry more.

Everything she said was true. "I'm taking the girls with me. Y'all don't have to worry about them they can join they crazy cousins" she gave me a smile. Turning to her husband she kissed him deeply. Saying bye to us giving all of us hugs. Red walked them out.

I stayed with my husband that night. I couldn't think to even leave his side. Zeek tried to ask me about earlier but I explained another time I needed this quiet time with him. Drea words was still heavy on my mind. I felt the blanket being thrown on me and before I knew it I was out.
