"Josh's Christopher wife Storm in hospital after someone tries to throw a brick at her while she is home"
"Pray for Storm Christopher as she is now in the hospital for someone throwing a brick into her home last night"
Josh's POV
My heart beats out of my chest as I sit down in the waiting room with my head down. The second I got the notification that the house alarm went off, I knew something was wrong. I didn't know exactly what but I just knew that I had to get home. I then got the notification that the emergency light was on, which meant that something happened. I dropped the kids off to my parents and rushed home. When I got home, I seen the neighbors surround my house and police and ambulance in my house. They carried Storm out on a stretcher and put her in the truck. One of the nurses held a crying Chelsey that was screaming for me and Storm.
Now here I am, as well as all of our friends, sitting in the waiting room waiting to hear the news on Storm. When I tried to check the security cameras to see what happened, it seems that the cameras turned off right before the event happened. I don't know who did this but when I find out, that person will wish they were never born.
"I can't believe this happened. I was just with her" Shareef says.
"You were?" Heaven asked him. He was?
"Yea, I went over to talk to her about everything that's been going on. If I just stayed a little longer then all of this wouldn't have happened" He says sighing.
"Don't blame yourself Shareef. You didn't know any of this was going to happen" I said sighing. I was angry. So angry. Storm is one of the most amazing and kindest people I know and doesn't deserve the stuff she goes through. It's like she can't get a break because people just keep throwing more problems at her. Including us...
While I was in training this morning, I was thinking hard about everything that's been going on. I feel like we put to much on Storm and it's not ok. Especially me. What I've done to Storm in the past doesn't equal to the things she's done to me. And it doesn't help that everyone including myself make things harder for her when she's already going through so much. I'm sorry Storm...I'm so sorry...

"Is mama gonna be ok?" Chelsey said as she laid in my arms.
"Yes princess" I said. But honestly I didn't know. Is Storm going to be ok? I hope she's not hurt.
"Family for Storm Christopher?" We all heard. We stand up and a nurse walks over to us.
"Hello everyone. So, I have some good news and some bad news" She says.
"Let's hear the good news first" I said to her.
"Ok. Good news is that Storm is up and she's doing fine" She says smiling. Oh thank god.
"What's the bad news?" Caleb asks.
"So I did some test and asked her many questions. And I can say that Storm is going through depression. It might not seem like it because many people do go through it differently. Has anything tragic happened to her over the years?" She's asked.
"Yea, she lost someone very close to her" I said.
"She can be suffering the pain of losing someone close to her. And also maybe having other problems or dealing with other things. The reason why she fell unconscious was because she had a minor heart attack. Mild heart attacks occur when an artery supplying your heart with blood and oxygen becomes blocked. She couldn't breathe because the pressure in her heart built up and pushed fluid into the lungs. And it was quicker then usual because she was in fear" She says. My heart sunk into my stomach as I thought about Storm. Oh no...
"So she has a weak heart?" Shareef asked.
"Yes but it's minor. As long as she stays healthy and happy she would be fine. Depression is also something that can be cured on it's own. And with Storm, I know she can recover from it and get back to her regular self soon. Just by asking her questions, I can tell she's a strong young lady" She says smiling. She is...
"Can we see her now?" Jalen asks.
"Of course, come with me" She says and we all followed her to Storm's room. When she opens the door, Storm is on the bed drinking water and looking out the window.
"Mama!" Chelsey yelled. Storm turns and smiles at Chelsey. I carry her over and sit her beside Storm.
"You ok mama?" Chelsey says.
"Yes baby. I'm ok" She says and hugs Chelsey. She then looks at us and her smile drops. She still might be mad at them.
"Storm..." Star says as her and the girls walk up to her.

"We wanted to say that we were sorry" She says.
"Are you saying that because you mean it or because of the condition I'm in right now?" Storm asks her.
"Because we mean it. Especially me. I was rude and should've approached you in a better way. Storm you know all we ever wanted was for you to get better and be happy. I was just so mad that you were doing these things to yourself because you weren't happy. I felt like I needed to help you, but me helping you only made things worse" She says sighing.
"I understand that you wanted to help Star. All of you did. But this isn't something you can help. I felt like y'all were rushing me to get over things and just move on. It's easier said then done" She says.
"We realized that and we're sorry" Luzzy says. Storm stares at them before looking down.
"I forgive you guys. But give me some time" She says and they all nodded.
"We're sorry too" Jalen says.
"Yea me too. I guess I should learn when to shut up. That's gonna take some time though" Dior says which makes her giggle. Only Dior.
"Even though you guys didn't do much, I forgive you guys too" She says. She then looked at me.
"How are you feeling?" I asked her.
"I'm ok now" She says. I wrap my arms around her and hug her tightly. I'm so glad she isn't hurt.
"I'm so glad you're ok" I said to her. I then pull away and sit beside her on the bed.
"What happened?" Sharife asks her.
"After Shareef left and I put Chelsey down, I went downstairs to clean up. My back was facing the window so I didn't see the person or car. They threw the brick and drove off. The brick had a note and a bullet attached to it" She says.
"What did the note say?" I asked her.
"The person told me to go die and that I was a murder" She says sighing. People are sick.
"Even in your own home, people won't leave you the fuck alone" I said frustrated.
"All we can do is leave it in the hands of the police to figure out. I'm ok and Chelsey is ok and that's all that matters" She says and smiles down at Chelsey.
"You're right" Caleb says.
"So, I'm guessing the doctor told you guys huh?" She says.
"You have a weak heart" Shareef says and she nods.
"Yea, I had a minor heart attack. It's kinda shocking to me" She says and chuckles to herself. I sat their observing her actions and her words.
"You're lucky it was only minor Storm" Luzzy says. Storm makes a face and shrugs.
"You could say that" She says.
"Guys, can you give us a minute" I said to them and they nodded. They walked out the room and I look at Storm.
"You could say that? Really?" I said to her and she rolls her eyes. It scared me to death how she didn't care if something happened to her. And after my talk with her she still had those kind of thoughts.
"Don't start Josh. Please" She says and I shake my head.
"I'm not starting anything Storm. I'm like freaking out for you right now and you're taking this so lightly" I said to her. I was so confused on why she seemed almost ok.
Storm's POV
I was scared. No...I was terrified. I was scared about my family's safety and for my life. That brick was meant to be hit me, it had to been. I can't believe this has gone as far as to someone coming to my house to do such a thing. I had to do something but the thing is, I didn't know how what to do. And it's not that I'm trying to be ok about it, it's just I don't want Chelsey to see me so upset. I promised myself I'd be strong for my kids. I can't let them see me at such a low point.
And what scared me the most is to find out I have a weak heart. After all of the shit I've been through, it resulted into my heart getting weak. I was upset, I was so sad to hear this because I'm even young. I haven't even reached 30. My heart can't take the shit I have to handle everyday, eventually it's gonna give out. I wonder when....
"I've been through worse" Was all I could say to Josh. To me, out of everything I been through, this isn't the worse thing to happen. And honestly it sucks that I only had a minor heart attack.
"I wish the real thing happened"
