7 Little Crows (Part 7 Of 8) 'Family'



The seventh is a story of Family.
After hearing part of the argument Henry ran to Omar's room to try to protect him.
Just as he got to the bedroom door he heard a gunshot.
Once he was in the room Henry called the police, 'Please you have to hurry my lover's ex showed up.
There has been a gunshot and I don't know what's going on. Please hurry.'
'Sir we will be right there please stay on the line till help arrives, '
as soon as the operator said that they heard another gunshot.
Through all this Omar had been crying on the bed asking where Ronnie was.
Henry tried his best to comfort his son.
A few months had passed by and Ronnie was still in a coma.
Mike's bullet had missed the heart by three inches.
One day while they were visiting Ronnie, Omar decided to read him a bedtime story.
In the middle of the story Ronnie started to stir and move around.
Henry called in the nurse.
As he woke up he noticed that Omar and Henry were there waiting for him.
He forced himself to talk, 'Baby, I'm so sorry I didn't know any of this was going to happen.
You know I would never put you or Omar through any of this.'
Ronnie started crying because he felt like it was his fault.
Henry went to his side.
'Sweetie, please stop crying neither of us blame you.
It's going to be ok, he won't hurt you anymore.
Once we get everything situated me and Omar will get you home and will all work out.'
A few years down the road Henry and Ronnie got married.
