The Good The Bad N The Ugly

Chapter 7

Ashley, Lauren, Tracy, and Lydia were all nervous. Their driver pulled up in front of the courtyard. “Okay. Let’s just hope this session be a calm one. I hope no fighting occurs.” Lauren spoke.

“Me too. We will still be friends, no matter what happens today. Promise that.” Lydia spoke sadly.

“Don’t worry. I promise.” Tracy hugged her, and broke away. “Group hug.” They all hugged each other, together.

“Okay. Let’s get out of here.” Ashley opened the door and stepped out. Followed by Lauren, Tracy, and Lydia.

“Ms. Ashley. Do you think Mr. Farron will be put to his misery?” a reporter asked.

“Well we hope so. I’ll see you guys later.” They all walked pass the reporters.

They approached the double doors. Ashley sighed. “Well guys…let’s go.”

“Come on. We’re almost there.” Mandy forced her skinny wrist out of the tight rope.

“Great. I’m out.” She knealed down and untied Mya. “Come on. She’s probably on her way.”

“Where do you think you ladies are going?” A thick guy approached them.

“Well…we were kinda thirsty. So we’re just going to get something to drink.”

“I think not. Sit down.” Mandy frowned, and sat down with Mya. Mya looked at Mandy and winked.

“Watch this.” Mya stood up. “So…” she approached the guys teasingly. “What’s your name? You are very handsome.” He stuck his nose up.

“Terry.”

“Mmm…Terry. What a nice name. So…” she circled him. “…you are very built.” She patted his buttocks. He slightly jumped. “Nice tooch.” She bit the bottom of her lip, and looked at Mandy. She whispered something.

“I don’t know.” She spoke without a sound coming out of her mouth. “Terry.” He looked at her. “Could my friend and I go get a drink of water. We’re sooo thirsty.” She fanned herself. “It’s sooo hot in here.” She unbuttoned her sweater, and yanked it off. He stared at her pink tank top. “Could we? I’m sooo hot, and thirsty.” He  smiled.

“O…Okay. Sure…uh…y…you could go.”

“Thanks, sweetie. We’ll be right back. And don’t go anywhere. I have a surprise for you.”

“O…Okay.” He smiled dreamily.

Taina heard a click. She stared at the doorknob and quickly stood up. She yanked on the knob and it slowly opened. She slowly peaked her head out of the door. There wasn’t a soul there.

She stepped out of the room, and looked around. “Is…anybody here? Marie? Monica? Is anyone here?” she heard a door creak.

She quickly turned around to see a hand holding the door that she was locked in. She gasped. “Who’s…who’s there?” the hand disappeared. She slowly approached the door. It opened more. “Oh shit. I know where this is leading. If I continue to approach that door…someone might jump out. And I’ll just be a next victim. I’m outta here.” She turned on her heel and ran as fast as she could out of the office.

Nick stood by Jessica’s side. “Is mommy sleeping?” Nick smiled and stared at his beautiful 6 year old daughter.

“Yeah. Mommy’s just resting.” He stared at Jessica who was in a deep sleep. He felt her fingers move. “Oh.” He gasped. “Doctor…there’s a sign. Her fingers just moved.”

“Great. Let me check her heart rate.” He quickly checked her heart with the utensil they use (don’t know what it’s called), and looked up at Nick. “It’s beating normally.” Her eyelids winched.

“I think she’s trying to open her eyes.” He knealed beside her bed. “Baby…can you hear me? Jessica wants to say something.” He looked at his daughter. “Say something to your mommy.” She walked up to the bed and stared deeply at her face.

“Mommy…when we get home…I want a BIGGGG chocolate cake. With a lot of icing on it. And some sprinkley things.” Nick chuckled. “Daddy. Why isn’t she saying anything?”

“Don’t worry sweetheart. She hears you.”

“Well…I…missed you mommy. Are we going to get to go to Disney World after you wake up?” Jessica winched her eyelids again. “I guess that’s a yes.”

“Nick.” Nick heard a soft voice.

“Jessica, baby.” His eyes became watery.

“Nick…are you…there?” her eyes continued to winch.

“Yes. I’m here. Jessica’s here too.” She formed a smile on her face. Her eyes finally opened a little.

“Mmm.” She moaned. She opened her eyes a little wider. “Wh…where am I?”

“Well…you fell out at your concert. So they rushed you to the hospital. Baby…I thought I was going to lose you.” She looked at him, and smiled warmly.

“I will…never leave you. I promise.” She stared at Jessica. “Come here, sweetie.” She smiled and ran to her. “You’re daddy and I are going to take you to Disney World after I get out of her. And…I’ll bake you a cake.”

“Yay.” She became excited.

“But I won’t be able to play with you and get on the rides. I’m going to need all the rest I can get. Understand?”

“I understand mommy. I love you.”

“I love you too. I love the both of you. Come here, sexy.” Nick smiled and moved his face closer to Jessica’s. He parted his lips with her, and broke away.

Dierica, and Tiara sat in the waiting waiting patiently for a notice. The doctor walked out of the room, and approached Aaliyah’s mother and aunt.

Dierica stood up. “Is she okay? Is everything going to be okay?” he took his thick reading glasses off.

“Well…it looks like everything’s going to be okay.” They all sighed of relief. “The only thing we’re waiting on is for her to wake up out of the coma. Her brain is trying to respond just a little. Give her a couple of days…and she should be woke by then.”

“Alright. Thanks doctor.” Dierica shook his hand and walked away.
