I ran over to his side and immediately I noticed he was shot a couple times, and he had blood coming from his mouth.

"I-i l-love y-you a-all."

"Dad stop trying to talk."

Shamar said and then he closed his eyes.

"Nah nigga keep them eyes open."

Devon said as he held his father's eyes open.

"Someone call an ambulance and someone help me put pressure on the wounds."

Everyone did something and a couple minutes later the ambulance arrived. By this time he was already starting to breathe slow which wasn't a good sign.

As they took and put him in the ambulance, I began hearing Devon say my name.

"What?"

"Ride with him."

I hurriedly made my way into the back of the ambulance, and once settled they flew through traffic. The whole time our eyes stayed locked on each other as I held his hand.

We arrived at the hospital and they took him to the back in a hurry leaving me to go find the bathroom to wash his blood off my hands.

"What has today come to?"

I asked myself looking in the mirror, while washing my hands I noticed the ring.

"Damn it I never said yes."

After I finished washing my hands I went into the waiting room and found everyone so I sat next to Shamar.

I didn't know if it was the right time to answer his question or not for the simple fact, it would be the wrong timing and random.

"Family of Shawn Moore?"

A very old hunched back calcasion lady said standing in the middle of the room, as we all stood up.

"Yes."

"Well I'm sorr-"

Cookie started screaming and Mrs. Daloris just looked out into space.

"Grandma shut up we is not in no damn movie. Let her finish talking then cry."

Devon said while he stood next to Shamar waiting for the doctor to continue.

"I'm sorry we've done all we c-"

Another doctor hurried in and the doctor stopped talking.

"I'm sorry to interrupt but Mr.Moore is still breathing, he just can't move a lot because of the bullet in his heart. If he moves he will die."

"Thank God. I need to see him."

Cookie said while getting out the chair and walking to her.

"Ok well first he had a special request to see Shamar and Devon Moore first."

The lady said unsure of who was who.

"Im Shamar, and that's Devon."

"Don't forget the daddy at the beginning."

Devon said while winking at her, which made the lady cheeks turn red.

"Ok. Follow me."

They walked out the waiting room and I retook my seat next to Mrs. Daloris. About thirty minutes later she spoke.

"Excuse me baby where am I?"

It took everything in me not to tear up, it's so sad how her memory goes in and out.

"We're at the hospital."

"For what?"

"Your husband was shot and now he's here."

"I'm married?"

"Yes ma'am."

"Wow, is h-"

She stopped once she seen Shamar and Devon walk back in, Shamar sat in his chair on the other side of me with red eyes.

"He's officially gone."

Devon said in a saddened tone.

"Who's gone?"

Mrs. Daloris asked looking curious.

"Your husband."

"Who was I married to?"

"Shawn Moore."

"Didn't ring a bell."

Everyone was in tears except me and Mrs. Daloris. I began to feel light-headed again so I went to get a water out of the vending machine. Then I just took a seat in the hallway on a chair and fell into deep thought.

~~~~~~~~~~~

It's been four days since Shamar and Devon's father passed, and everyone has been in their own little world not talking and barely eating.

I tried to keep myself happy and stress as less as possible for the sake of the baby.

Today I have a doctor's appointment to see what I'm having.

"Babe, get ready so we can go to the doctors to see what were having."

I said happily to Shamar as he slouched on the couch drinking a bottle of Hennessy.

"I'm not going, and leave me the fuck alone!"

He yelled and caused me to jump and I started to get emotional.

"B-but Shamar."

"B-but Rain shit the hell up and leave me alone!"

He mimicked me and then shooed his hand for me to get away from him. In return I slapped him across his face and still stood in front of him.

"Move bitch!"

"I'm not a bitch, if anything I'm trying to make sure you don't miss out on a important part of your child's life. But since you wanna be a bitch and treat me disrespectfully fuck you too!"

I walked away from him and went upstairs to get Terrell and Maloni, so they could come with me to the doctors appointment.

After making sure they were ready we walked downstairs and I seen Shamar still sitting in his same position, and didn't even glace our way.

I made my way over to Shamar with the kids behind me. I gave him a couple kisses and they didn't even seemed to faze him.

"Trust me I know how your feeling, but your taking it out on the wrong person and it's not right. I love you and I'll see you later since you don't want to come with us."

I have him another kiss and the kids just looked at him. We made our way out to the car and then I drove off.

"Mom why dad acting like that?"

"He's grieving."

"What's grieving?"

"Grieving is an emotion that people go through when they lose someone very special to them."

"Oh like how we lost our beautiful mother?"

Terrell asked with a smile on his face.

"Yes sir."

I smiled in return. To me there was no reason not to tell him I'm not really his mother, ever since he was a baby I've shower him pictures and told him stories about her. He decided on his own to call me mom so I'm fine with it.

"Mommy?"

Maloni said.

"Yes babe?"

"I'm hungry can we get something to eat?"

"Yes after my doctor's appointment, because we're already late."

"Ok."

Fifteen minutes later we pulled up to my doctor's office and made our way inside to the waiting room where I signed in at the front desk.
