to speak to you, I’m sure it will be soon. As you can see, we’ve had a lot going on this evening. The night is still young.”
    To ask for patience, at this time, wasn’t understandable. Forty-five minutes or ten minutes, somebody could’ve come out to say something. For now, our hands were tied so all we could do was wait.
    â€œI’m real worried about my mother,” Jacoby said as I sat next to him. “I’ve never seen her like this. The look in her eyes is cold, and for her to walk out like that was crazy.”
    â€œI know, but she’s been through a lot these past several months. Give her time, okay?”
    â€œI will. I know how she’s feeling, but I feel so bad for Cedric. After seeing him like that, I just can’t get the thoughts out of my head. I hope he’ll be okay.”
    â€œMe too.”
    Jacoby updated me on what had transpired at Cedric’s house. And after he informed me of Cedric’s affair with his receptionist, I was numb. No wonder Kayla was so bitter. She definitely had a lot on her plate, and I really wanted to be there for her. I wasn’t sure if she was going to head back to my apartment, or if she was going back to the house she once lived in with Cedric. I asked Jacoby to call her, but that was when my cell phone rang. It was Evelyn. I could barely say hello before she started yelling into the phone.
    â€œYou’d better get some control over your stupid-ass best friend. Please tell her that if she put her hands on me again, I’m going to press charges and have her arrested.”
    I rolled my eyes. Some people loved drama and Evelyn was one of those people. “What are you talking about, Evelyn? When did she put her hands on you?”
    â€œShe just came over here, claiming that she wanted to talk about the baby. Since Cedric is dead, I figured she would offer me some kind of money to help me take care of our child. I don’t know what I’m going to do now, but whatever I decide, please tell her to stop hating because this baby doesn’t have anything to do with it.”
    I wanted to call Evelyn all kinds of names for being so foolish, but I didn’t want to waste my time with her. “Can I make a suggestion to you? Do yourself a favor and go see a shrink. If you thought Kayla had any interest in helping you with that baby, you’re crazy as hell. I don’t know what you’re going to do, but please don’t count on any funds from her.”
    â€œYeah, whatever. I figured you would take her side, like you always do. Meanwhile, I’m the one over here suffering.”
    â€œGirl, bye. I don’t know what you consider suffering, but trust me when I say you don’t know the meaning.”
    â€œHow could you say that? I’m pregnant, and now that Cedric is dead, there is no way for me to take care of this baby all by myself. I don’t want to have an abortion, but what else am I supposed to do? Kayla’s life isn’t the only one affected. Just so you know, so is mine.”
    Thank God the doctor came out and called for us. Otherwise, I was about to let Evelyn have it.
    â€œI gotta go. I’m at the hospital with Keith and he needs me.”
    â€œI see who your priority is, so go do you. Tell Keith I said hello, and if his brother, Bryson, is there, tell him I said hello too.”
    I lied and said I would then ended the call. Jacoby and I rushed up to the doctor who squeezed his eyes and rubbed them before speaking to us.
    â€œFor now, he’s in serious condition, but stable. He lost a lot of blood, and all we can do is wait. He’s a fighter, so I’m hopeful that he’ll make it.”
    I sighed from relief and so did Jacoby. “Ca . . . can I see my father?” he asked. “Just for a little while. I want to see him. Let him know I’m here.”
    The doctor opened the door for us to come inside. We followed him to a space that was
