A Hood Love Story

Chapter: 73

L'a pov

I been sitting here for the past 3 hours while my baby been in surgery. They not even telling nothing about her man. This shit making me sick and my head hurt. Like ion know what's going on with her, I just need to know she's ok. That's all man, if God takes her off this planet from me, ion know how imma live my life. Ion wanna lose her man, she's literally the only thing that stops me from doing dumb shit and keeps me sane. If it wasn't for her, I'd probably be in jail rn. How I let this shit happen man? We was just good last week and now I might lose her. I sighed and shook my head. This shits killing me man. It's our anniversary and this how we spending it. It's really gonna fuck with me if I lose her today or at all because of this shit. On everything I love, imma find out who did this to her.

"She's gonna be fine baby. I know she is, I just got a good feeling."

My mama said coming and wrapping her arm around me.

"How did I let this happen man?"

"It's not your fault baby."

"I should have just left her home man! She wanted to stay home but I wanted her to be with me, I should have just let her."

"L'a it's not your fault."

"I put her in a dangerous situation and now I might lose her."

Ion act like it but I love that girl so much , sometimes to the point ion even know what to do with myself. I'm supposed protect her from shit like this and now look at the situation I got her in.

"Just pray Leonard, God will come through. He always does."

"Not if I haven't been treating her right. He probably gonna take her away from me."

"That's not how God works. He always gives second chances."

I as I felt my eyes get glossy. Just the thought of my life without her was making me go crazy. I whipped my eyes making sure I wasn't about to have tears falling down my face.

"It's ok to cry baby, it just means you actually have emotions towards her and that you really love her."

I shook my head.

"I'm fine."

Ion never cry over anyone or anything. The fact that there are tears forming in my eyes is crazy.

"I was supposed to protect that girl from everything, make sure she was safe around me at all times and I can't even do that. I can't even make her feel safe around me cause she's not."

"If you were there when that was happening, I know you would have done anything to make sure she was gonna be ok. Don't blame yourself Leonard, you weren't there, you didn't know this was gonna happen."

This why she not allowed to go anywhere. I'm not leaving her by herself again, ion care what's happening.

"Ion even know how this happened. Like who would wanna do this to her man?"

"Things happen Leonard, there isn't always a explanation for why something happens."

Mak, S Dot, Tay and JB all walked in the door at the same time. I looked up and shook my head.
