Alexandria's p.o.v
I sighed as soon as I got outside the door and looked down hoping for the tiniest bit of luck to come
my way. "M'am are you alright?" I laughed at this. Alright? Alright was an understatement. "Alright.
Am
I alright? I'm out of a home. Living in a car with no heat or ac for me and my daughter. I have no
money to buy us food." I choked out as I lifted my shirt to show my bones. "And to top everything off
my husband doesn't remember us. So am I alright? No I'm not alright!" She gulped and looked at me
as if she was trying to process everything I was saying. "Here." I looked down to her hands to see her
handing me a wad of money. "I-I, I can't take that." She shook her head and pushed it into my pocket.
"Please go get you and your little girl something to eat and then come back to me when you two are
done." I furrowed my eyebrows trying to figure out if this was a joke or if she was actually being
genuine but I couldn't read her. "I um thank you...Thank you so much." She nodded in response and
walked off. "You ready to get something to eat baby?" I looked down to see a very weak Nadia
nodding
fast and with that we ran off to the cafeteria to feed our grumbling tummies.

"Um here you go here's the rest of the cash we didn't need it all." Me and Nadia fed our self's one pop
tart each. I know It's not a lot but I felt guilty enough taking the ladies money as it is. "No, keep it
please. It's the least I can do for you and your family." I shook my head and pushed the money
towards
her palm. "Please take it please." She shook her head and began to speak again. "Actually Joey is
asking for you both in his room." I gulped and opened my eyes real wide. Could this be the luck I was
hoping for? I grabbed up Nadia in my arms and flew to Joey's room only to find him fighting with the
nurse. "Please what the fuck is wrong with me!" I cringed at his hostility. "J-Joey? Is this a bad time?"
He turned his eyes to me and Nadia and softened up real quick. "Um no nurse could you give us a
minute?" She nodded scarcely and waddled out of his room. "She was just telling me I have to wait a
few more weeks until I can leave but I can't not provide for you guys." A tear streamed down my face
at his kind thoughts. "Joey I have a few things to tell you." He nodded and motioned for me and
Nadia
to come closer. "Joey listen. Me and Nadia we lost our house... And we have no money and no where
to live other then my car which has no gas. I didn't want to stress you..." The look on his face was cold
and mysterious as if I had just pissed him off even worse. "How could you sit around and wait for an
asshole like me?" I shook my head the tears now streaming down my face and held his hand tight in
mine. "Joey because I love you. And you saved me." he turned away and snatched his hand from
mine. "Alex you took Nadia and left me for years!" He began as he spat. "All I wanted was a baby with
you! A life! And you took that from me!" I sobbed and held Nadia close to my chest as I tried my best
to cover her tiny ears from all of his outbursts. "J-J-Joey you remember?" He turned to look at me the
fire was raging in his eyes. "Of course I fucking remember. I remembered as soon as I woke up! I
wanted it to all be a fucking dream! So I played dumb! You're a fucking bitch Alexandria! I wish I never
fucking met you!" I shook my head as I knew this wasn't him but I had to get out of there but before I
could leave he began crashing. "M'am we need you to leave." the nurse calmly said as her and her
team came rushing in with their crash carts to save him. "Okay." Was all I could choke out as I took
Nadia in my arms and ran far far away from that horrible hospital.
