Your favorite characters are up. I made a mistake though: Precious is meant to be 23 and Nehemiah is meant to be 29 but I lowered it down to 26, his ass is too old. Unedited-

The clock ticking and the machines beeping were the only sound you could hear in the room. As much as I hated hospitals, I had to be here, for my... I don't even know what to call her right now.
Turning my face, I stared at her still body. I mean, what did I do wrong?
I understand I was locked down for six years and put you through a lot of shit but that doesn't give you a reason to get pregnant by the man you've been cheating on me with. As much as I wanna kill his ass, I ain't getting myself back in jail.
"Is she up yet?" Aaliyah asked peeking through the door.
"Nah." I replied dryly. "The doctors said she'll be up any time soon though."
It's been exactly two weeks since the incident happened and it's been hell for all of us. I got niggas all night looking for the person who caused it and no one had the answers. What hurt me the most was that I had to tell the kids she went out for a trip in Paris, there was no way I'm telling my six year olds their mother is here fighting for her life.
"Man, she gon' make it don't worry. The doctors said she's been replying to her medicine which is good."
"It ain't all that. There's a fifty percent chance she'll have to learn how to walk again, you know how long that shit take? And I know for sure she ain't gonna like that big ass cut on her cheek, she a model remember that 'Liyah."
"You're overthinking too much, I'm sure some cream can make that cut go." She smirked taking a seat next to me.
"Nigga this ain't the time for jokes." I chuckled. "Anyway, why the hell you here so early."
"It's been what like a month after Kyrie and Quality started school and the school is blowing up the house phone askin' me to pick Kyrie up. I'm glad you here man now you can put his small black ass in place."
I chuckled once again. I'm glad that I can finally hold my children without being watched by the police. Now all I gotta do is make up the six years that's been missing. "Leave my boy alone, he just like me when I was in school. Do Precious beat him?"
"Sometimes, when she don't I do it for her. That nigga thinks just cause he got shot he the man now."
"We gotta get a lot of shit back in place now."
"Honestly? Precious already in here fighting for her life, Kyrie's ass nearly got killed, Jasmine got raped and you still wanna go back?"
"Hell yeah! That's what put food in yo' table six years ago now it's Precious's fame. Double that we gone be good forever."
"Precious's fame! If you slip and land yo' ass back in jail Precious's name gon' be dirty."
"That's the thing. I ain't gon' slip. I got a lot of unfinished business to handle and finding who did this to Precious is on top of the list."
"I'm sure the police are on it. News got around quick as hell and everyone worried."
"Police are prolly' gon' stop searching the case a week later. She black remember that they don't care if she famous or not."
"You overthinking, chill."
"I'm not overthinking I'm thinking in advance, chill."
She let out a deep breath knowing she's just been defeated. Times like this, all you can do is think in advance so nothing can happen to your family.As much as I'm starting to hate Precious she's still part of my family.

"Man you sure you wanna do this?" Khalil asked for the third time as I drove the black SUV.
"Stop fuckin' askin' me the same question! Yes I want to do this, that's why I brought yo' ass here with me today."
"You just got out now you wanna go back in? Just let me handle it a'g-"
"Hell no. I won't stop until I know my family is safe and all them niggas are dead."
"Shorty-I'll sort him, Loco's niggas-I'll sort them. Gold, I'll sort everyone out just leave it to me man. You nearly lost yo' brotha' six years ago have you even been in contact with him?"
"Nah I got shit-"
"Nigga, your girl at a damn hospital bed fighting for her life and you wanna be here shooting up a nigga's yard like he still remember yo' ass?"
"Man, just cause' it's been years since I saw his ass doesn't mean I forgot."
"Man stop tryna find excuses, there's a good time for everything. Go home to your kids, at least you have someone to go to."
Precious
"Now lift your right leg up." The doctor instructed as he took notes on his clip board. I slowly lifted my casted leg up ignoring the pain. A smile creeped up my face at my success as he took down more notes.
"You are doing very well, Mrs Johnson-"
"It's Miss Tarre."
"I'm sorry. You are doing very well so you'll be out of here before you know it! Take two painkillers a day and only take the prescribed medicine after you've had your dinner. I'll advice you to call a nurse up here to take you to the therapy room so you can relax and massage your legs because right now your legs, we can use the term 'sleeping'." I nodded at his instructions as he flipped his notes. "Oh! One more thing I was about to forget. We ran an ultrasound scan and didn't hear a heart beat but sometimes the tests can go wrong so we'll have to run more tests but I'm going to be one hundred percent honest with you, theres a ninety percent chance you lost it because only a few pregnant woman survive the pregnancy but that's only for minor car crashes."
Should I be happy or sad?
"What about this cut?"
"We'll give you some cream to apply, it should be gone within a week."
"Thank you sir."
"It's fine, press that button over there for a nurse. Relax and exercise your legs."With that he left. Just as I my head hit the pillow I heard the door open again.
Sighing I turned my face to see his bulky figure. "You finally up, huh?"
By his facial expression I could tell he was extremely exhausted. He pulled a chair and took a seat next to my bed and stared right at me. I hated that, knowing about three to five minute we will be getting into an argument.
"Yep, I was tired of just being in my thoughts." I replied lightly laughing.
"So when were you gonna tell me?" He asked slouching on his chair.
"Tell you what?" I asked turning my body so now my back was towards him.
"Turn the fuck around Precious now ain't the time for games!" He snapped. Sighing once again, I slowly turn around facing him once again. "See this is the problem with us, this is why we ain't getting married either! You so closed! How do you expect us to work out if you can't even be real with me?!"
"Can you stop shouting at me; I'm not a goddamned child!"
"Well you sure do act like one!"
"Just leave if all your gonna do is snap at me. Now is not the time." I sniffled. "How do you expect me to tell you I'm pregnant if I only found out the day before the accident. See that's the problem with you! Do you expect me to tell you I'm pregnant when I'm still takin' that shit and on top of that I might not even have this baby!"
"It's not the first time though, you always keep shit away. How would you feel if you found out I was doin' shit behind yo' back with Liana by the media or your cellmates. Knowing you, you probably wouldn't have told me the shit with you and that nigga if I didn't find out."
"Like I said before, I have my needs. I can't wait around fo-"
"Then why would you say you gon' hold me down when you really ain't gon' do shit but fuck any man you see!"
"You're coming at me like I'm a hoe!"
"To me you are. Didn't you learn a lesson when Drey was doin' all that shit to you?"
I gasped. Out of anything to say he had to bring back that point.
"Gold get the fuck out of here." I replied closing my eyes so tears wouldn't try and escape my eyes but somehow did.
"No, I wanna talk fir-"
"You just hurt my feelings and you expect me to talk! This is why good things like Alaysia get taken away from you!"
He clenched up his jaw whilst he balled up his fists. "What did you just say?"
"See now you know how it feels! It's your fault why all this shit happened. It's your fault why I'm in this shit it's all your fucking fault!" I screamed sobbing. I had no control over what I was saying, I was just letting my mind take over everything.
Standing up he went towards the door. "Precious, just remember if it wasn't for me, yo' ass would've been on your knees sucking his dick right about now." With that he walked out slamming the door behind him.
Fuck this love shit.
