You can ride in the back if you don’t have anyone to take you,” the paramedic informed as they exited the house.
“ I’ll drive myself up there,” Kendra insisted.
Kendra called her sister as soon as they left. Marcos answered the phone. He could hear Kendra’s sniffles.
“ What’s wrong, baby girl?” he asked.
Kendra gave him a rundown of what had just happened.
“ Okay, baby girl, we will meet you up there.” Marcos disconnected the call.

Fifteen minutes later, all three of them were standing in the ER, waiting for the doctors to come out and talk to them. Kendra and Nia were hugging each other. Trent walked in right when the doctor and the priest arrived. Kendra sucked her teeth at Trent.
“ Are you the family of Bernice LaSalle?” the doctor asked.
The girls nodded their heads.
“ Can you please tell us what’s going on?” Nia asked, still holding on to Kendra and rocking back and forth.
“ It looks like your mother hasn’t been taking her medication. When she collapsed, she slipped into a diabetic coma,” the doctor announced. “Shortly after she slipped into a coma, she suffered a stroke, and I’m sorry to inform you that your mother didn’t make it.”
Kendra cried hysterically and screamed, “No! Not my momma! Why?”
The priest immediately started praying over them. Nia had a bewildered look upon her face. She couldn’t believe that her mother was gone. She sought to be the stronger one for her sister. The only thing Kendra remembered was being admitted to the hospital for having an asthma attack. When she came to, Trent was right by her side.
“ I thought I told you that I’m good on you for now. Why the fuck am I lying in this hospital bed?” Kendra hissed.
Trent’s eyes were still red. He answered, ”Because, ma, you had a bad asthma attack. Let me go get the doctor and tell him you’re awake.”
Trent went to the nurses’ station to let them know that she had woken up and to ask if they could page Kendra’s doctor. Then, Trent stepped back into the room.
“ The doctor will be here in a minute, ma. You need anything?” he asked.
“ I need for you to leave me the hell alone. Thank you,” Kendra answered rudely.
Just then, the doctor entered the room.
“ All right, Miss LaSalle. We are releasing you. Just make sure you stop at the nurses’ station on your way out to pick up your prescription. Here are your discharge papers. Okay. You’re set.” The doctor handed the papers to Kendra. She smiled and thanked him and then, she went to the restroom, washed up, ran her fingers through her hair and rinsed her mouth. Kendra grabbed her things and stopped at the nurses’ station. Then, she made a beeline out the door. Kendra drove back to the house she grew up in, reminiscing about the good times she had spent with her mother. Their life hadn’t been grand, but she still appreciated every moment she had spent with her mom— the good times and the bad times. Nina and Marcos were already at the house when Kendra pulled up, followed by Trent. The house had an eerie presence that made Kendra feel uneasy, and, immediately, her stomach felt queasy. She ran to the restroom and vomited. Trent rushed to her aide.
“ Baby, you aight?” Trent asked.
Instead of pushing him away, Kendra collapsed in his arms.

Kendra slowly but surely started to put her life back on track. It had been two weeks since her mother’s funeral and her break up with Trent. She had fallen behind in her schooling, so she decided to take a year off. She was going through too much turmoil, so she needed some time to refocus. She still hadn’t moved back in with Trent, but he came by her mom’s house every day. Trent wasn’t pressing the issue. He wanted to leave the decision up to her. In the meantime, he took full advantage of being a bachelor. Trent even had Nicole spend the night at his
