Samir's POV

"Samir, the hospital called and said that you can see your father." Kori's father said as he stood by the door. I was sitting in Kori's desk chair and stopped spinning in it.

"They said I could see him?" I asked and he nodded in response.

"I think I'll go and see him." I said slowly as I stood up. Kori looked over at me wide-eyed a little. I nodded again before she stood up.

We walked downstairs and out to his car.

We sat in the backseat next to each other while her dad started driving.

I was anxious because I didn't know what was bout to happen. I wanted to talk to him but at the same time I didn't.

I wanted to know why he did what he did

But I also didn't wanna know why I wasn't enough of a reason for him to want to stay.

"I'm gonna pull over and pick up something's from the store." Her Dad said, dragging me out of my thoughts. I nodded before he left the car.

Then everything came right back.

I don't know what to say. I don't know what to do.

I wanna know why it had to get to this point.

Why I am never enough of a reason for him to at least try and do better...and stay.

Maybe drop me off at school one day. Make some food with me. Ask me if I need help with homework.
Sometimes it feels like we're strangers just coexisting.

Right then Kori put her hand in mine. She didn't look at me when she did, she just kept looking straight and listening to the music.

So in God I trust, I lust for a 850-deluxe
And until I touch a million-plus, ain't much to discuss
Diamonds and double-digits, Gianni Versace down with lizards
It's realism, so I visualize it to live it

(A/N- y'all should listen to AZ. He's an old school ish rapper. I love him. Dis song is gimme your's by him. I hope y'all like the music I use in dese chapters🌐💕)

I didn't know if she realized how anxious I was. Or if she did it just because she wanted to. Whatever reason it was, I didn't really care because it felt nice holding her hand.

I tried to relax and not work myself up about this.

"Kori you wanna come with me?" I said once they told me that I could go and see him.

"You sure you want me to come?" She asked and I nodded.

We got up and started walking through the hall to his room.

I looked down seeing her hand wasnt in her hoodie. I tried to reach for her hand but she flinched and pulled it away.

Fuck fuck fuck

"Sorry," she mumbled before reaching for my hand again. "I got startled."

I chuckled a little before we got to the room. I walked in and saw my dad laying in the hospital bed with all these different machines around him.

This is the worst I've ever seen him.

When he finally registered that it was me he smile slightly.
