"Ma'am step aside !" Two nurses rushed off the ambulance truck with a stretcher
They picked Natino up and put him onto the bed and rolled him towards the truck
I wiped my eyes and quickly went to his car grabbing my purse and other things along with Natino's valuables since the window was broke
I closed and locked his car doors before I ran getting on the truck. It made me cry seeing him like this
"Is he gonna be okay ?" I cried asked the lady nurse as she put an oxygen mask over his face
"We have a pulse ma'am but we don't know if he will survive. It depends if the bullet may have hit a major artery." She was telling me making me cry more
"Im sorry." I cried grabbing his hand and putting my head down on his other shoulder as he laid there lifeless.
I should've called for help but I didn't now he may die because of me. I felt so fucking awful inside. This shit was all my fault.
We got to a hospital in less than five minutes and they rolled him out taking him to surgery immediately
I wasn't leaving this fucking hospital until they told me he was okay.
Everyone was blowing me up but I only answered for my parents who wanted to know where I was because they had heard what happened on the news
"You okay ?!" My dad yelled hugging me tight making me cry again
"What happened ?!" My mom looked at me with tears in her eyes and I looked down seeing all the blood on my face hands and legs
"I don't know ! T-they were shooting at the car show and Natino was hit ! I should've called an ambulance but I didn't cause I didn't wanna leave him !" I sobbed and my dad hugged me again
"Don't cry man, it ain yo fault." My dad rubbed my back
"Im not leaving until I know he okay brah !" I cried wiping my eyes as I was shaking
"Calm down baby, he gone be okay." My mom assured me but I wanted a doctor to say that
"Mom I let him bleed, this shit all my fault !" I cried wanting to punch something
"Diamond Jamil you did the best you could ! Now that boy will be fine, I promise you !" My mom said trying to calm me down but I didn't wanna hear it at all
"Breathe Diamond, everythang gone be alright man." My dad said and I sat down starting to cry again
It took another five minutes for them to actually calm me down cause that weed I smoked had me going crazy as fuck.
They were trying to convince me to go home and shower then come back but I didn't want to leave him at all.
I called his mother and told her what happened and she showed up thirty minutes later with his brother Sauce who had Swift and Kash with him
"Is he straight ?" Sauce asked me out of breath with tears in his eyes
"I don't know, the doctor didn't come yet." I sniffled putting my head down. I felt so bad. I should've done something bro.
I stayed for another thirty minutes until my parents finally convinced me to go home and shower
"Call me if you hear anything." I looked at his mama Kendra
"Okay baby, thank you for stayin with my son." She says making tears pool my eyes and I nodded before finally leaving with my mom who took me to my place
People was blowing me up and the media was going crazy but I wasn't even caring.
"You okay baby ?" My mom knocked at the door as I was getting undressed for the shower
"Yes !" I shouted back before looking in the mirror seeing Natino blood all over me. It replayed in my head again and it brought tears to my eyes
I checked my phone again to see if his mom had texted me or maybe I missed a call but it was still nothing
I got in the shower and bathed trying to clear my thoughts and calm myself but I kept hearing them gunshots going off in my head
I eventually put my head down and started praying for God to bring Natino out of this alive.
When I got put the shower I brushed my teeth and washed my face
I went in my bedroom and got dressed in a white cropped tank from Shein and my pink stacked sweatpants from Gsuwoo.
I put on my black Nike hoodie and my black Ugg sandals before I brushed my hair back into another decent ponytail. Good thing I had a hair appointment tomorrow cause I was over doing my own hair
"You ready ma ?" I asked putting my purse on my shoulder walking up and her and my dad looked at me
"Im finna go mama, Imma check on you in the mornin, aight ?" My dad kissed my head "Luh you."
"I love you too." I mumbled before he exited
"You need to eat something." My mom said and I shook my head
"You worried about this damn boy more than yourself !" She frowned as I stared at her blankly
"Here put somethin on yo damn stomach." She gave me the carton of strawberries out of my refrigerator
I shook my head just taking it cause I wasn't in my right mind to argue with her ass
I ended up driving myself back cause I wasn't finna put up with my mama ranting just because she didn't like Natino at all
She blamed him for me having to go through an abortion at a young age but it was both of our fault
I was almost to the hospital when Kendra called me and I quickly answered the phone turning down the radio
"Is he okay ?"
"Yea we just seen the doctor. They said the bullet was lodged in his collarbone and they got it out and he gone be okay. He just got out of surgery and we can see him."
"Okay." I cried turning my steering wheel to the left
"He okay baby, we're waitin for you."
"Okay." I sniffled before I hung up the phone putting it back on my lap
"Thank you God."
