Am I gonna loose her again?

Clinton drops Aaliyah off and asks Madea to look after her as he leaves. Quan who quickly drops off Kyla drives to the orphanage to see Aaliyah. Madea follows Aaliyah up her room and asks her what the problem is.

" Quan is a cheater aunt! He is cheating on me with that assistant of her's called Kyla! I saw it with my own eyes today it's so disgusting!" Aaliyah cries in pain as she tosses her beddings to the floor. Madea senses a presence so she turns around only to find Quan standing there. When Aaliyah hears Madea call out Quan. She gets up in anger and pushes him out but he refuses to leave,

" Just hear me out Aaliyah!" Quan asks for a chance but Aaliyah isn't ready to listen especially when she has seen things for herself, " There's is nothing left for you to explain because I've seen it all with my own eyes Quan so leave now!" She points out to the door but Quan refuses to leave.

The two continue to argue and Madea stands there in a confused state. Soon, Aaliyah starts gasping for breath and falls to the ground. Quan stops talking and turns around to see the state Aaliyah is in so he panics as he gets to the floor, "Aa... Aaliyah? What's wrong? Talk to me please!" He calls to her.

He gets her off the floor and rushes her to his car with Madea following behind him. They reach the hospital and the doctor treats Aaliyah and she is okay but she remains unconscious. He tells Quan and Madea not to stress Aaliyah because it can lead to serious repercussions. In the morning, Savannah and CJ come to see Aaliyah while Quan pays the bills at the reception. Aaliyah wakes up and Savannah hugs her tightly because she's happy to see her friend well and awake. Aaliyah turns to Madea and asks if Quan is around but Madea moves her head left and right to say no.

" It's good that he's not here because each time I see him,I get stressed out and especially when I remember what he did to me last night" Aaliyah explains.

Savannah sees that thinking about Quan is making Aaliyah stress out again,she tells her to calm down because she won't see Quan again. Quan hears the whole conversation and he turns away to leave without saying a word or making a noise. Aaliyah is discharged from the hospital and is taken home where Clinton comes to visit her. When CJ takes Savannah to the office,she asks him what they have to do to get Quan and Aaliyah back together but she refuses,

" We won't do anything CJ,the doctor said not stress her out and am not taking chances. Your friend broke my friends heart and now she is suffering!"

CJ gets upset when Savannah puts the blame on Quan, " Hold on,so you think Quan cheated on Aaliyah? That's ridiculous!"

CJ and Savannah have an argument as they both think there friend is in the right. The argument gets heated to an extent where CJ asks Savvy to choose between him and helping Quan or choose Aaliyah. Savannah finds herself in a dilemma but she will stick to the person who is more of a sister to her, " You must be crazy if you think I'd choose you over my best friend" Savannah walks into the office leaving CJ standing outside regretting ever asking the question. In the morning, Aaliyah goes to work pretending as though everything is normal while Savannah refuses to have breakfast at her house and just goes to the office on an empty stomach. Quan and CJ on the other hand are having trouble with adjusting without their loved ones. Quan asks CJ to call Savannah over the phone so she can tell him how Aaliyah is doing but CJ just goes quiet and gets a long face. CJ tells Quan he had an argument with Savannah over his and Aaliyah's relationship and this makes Quan angry, "Dude! You were in the wrong, how can you ask her to choose me over her best friend? That's just insane"

CJ apologizes and also promises to help Quan prove his innocence. During lunch hour, Savannah goes to Aaliyah's work place to see how she's doing. As she's there, Savannah tells Aaliyah the differences she had with CJ and Aaliyah apologizes. Savannah takes the risk of asking her best friend if she would listen to Quan had he asked for a chance.

" You know...I won't lie but I feel like I should have listened to him or his explanation" Aaliyah regrets.

" Then give him a chance and decide what to do next after that" Savannah suggests.

Aaliyah agrees to do it but she doesn't want to see Quan's face or hear his voice so she tells Savannah a written letter would do. Savannah goes to Quan's office but Kyla won't let her see him and this gets Savannah upset, "Listen here girl... don't try to act like Quan's parents or girlfriend cause you're not! Now you better let me go and see him or I'll knock your teeth out!" Savannah pushes Kyla to the side and makes her way into Quan's office. When Quan sees Savannah,he is overwhelmed so he gives her a friendly hug and asks endless questions about Aaliyah which Savannah answers. She also tells him that Aaliyah is ready to listen to him but only through a letter. Without wasting any more time,Quan writes his explanation and apology on a paper and gives it to Savannah who takes it to Aaliyah and she reads it calmly and slowly,

" Aaliyah am sorry for hurting your feelings. Truth is I was under the influence of alcohol which I didn't take to my own Accord but someone must have added it to my juice. And as for Kyla,she's just all over me but I've got nothing to do with her. I tried to kiss her because I thought it was you but you stopped the scene just in time"

When she reads the letter, Aaliyah takes Savannah with and goes to Quan's office. She finds Kyla and slaps her, " Never you ever look in Quan's direction or try to get close to him ever again because I'll burn your face!" She then hugs Quan and apologizes for misunderstanding him.

Clinton realizes he might loose Aaliyah since she's back with Quan so he gives one more final blow. He pays the hospital delivery man, asking him to deliver expired drugs and prepare a receipt under Quan's name. The following morning, Quan is all happy but he's day gets ruined. He gives thirty people injections not knowing they are expired which makes them start fitting. They are quickly rushed to the other hospital and are treated. This makes his boss mad so he calls Clinton over, "This guy just poisoned our patients! He's a murderer so he's fired!"

Soon the police arrive to take Quan away as the families of the affected lodge complaints. Before he is taken away, Clinton says something that could ruin Aaliyah's relationship with Quan,

" Why would you do this Quan? How will Aaliyah feel? Especially when she pleaded and asked me for a favor, asking me to find you a job and then keep it a secret" He smiles.

This news comes as a shock to Quan especially the fact that Aaliyah lied to him about his suddenly found job. What happens now?
