Riff was at the hospital to visit Tony if he was awake yet or not. If not then he planned to stay there if he wakes up today sometime. He let the others know where he would be at if they needed him. Ice and Diesel volunteered to accompany him but he said that he would be fine but they insisted and who was Riff to tell them no when they get insistent like that? Ice and Diesel left with Riff. He wouldn't have brought Action or A-Rab because they didn't show any feeling of concern for Tony and that angered Riff to no end. He thought it would be too much for Baby John to handle emotionally. Yes he knows that he might be able to handle it but didn't risk it. He didn't want to risk being wrong about that and he only had Ice and Diesel going with him.
He approached the desk and said,"I'm here to visit Tony Wyzek." The receptionist looked confused and Riff sighed,knowing that wasn't the name he should've said and he rephrases,"I'm here to see Anton Wyzek." The receptionist nodded and handed Riff a visitor pass and he asked,"Where would his room be at?" She responded with the room number for Tony. Riff went to that room and wondered what he would see of his best friend at the moment. He was certain that Tony was gone. Riff was anxious to see if he'd wake up or not. He braced himself and opened the door and took a shaky deep breath as he went inside. Laying in the bed was a motionless Tony. He was still unconscious. Riff walked to the bed and gently brushed his hand against Tony's motionless hand. Tony looked lifeless even though he wasn't. He was absolutely pale and everything like that. It scared Riff to see Tony this way.
He wouldn't ever admit it but it scared him badly. It scared Riff so badly to see this usually not pale Tony pale as if he was a ghost. The white sheets covering him didn't help that feeling. The white sheets worsened the feeling. They made him look ghostly. But Riff knew that it was his brother from another mother, his best friend,not a ghost. Ice and Diesel approached suddenly. Riff asked,"Do you think he's going to wake up?" Diesel said,"Probably." Ice said,"There's no way of knowing that at the moment Riff." Riff looked absolutely upset and Diesel said,"Riff, he's not dead. Just unconscious. We might know the outcome within time."
Ice grabbed Riff's hands and looked at him,"I know you're worried and scared right now for the sake of your best friend. But we don't know Tony's fate right now." Riff was shaking and soon a full on nervous breakdown began. Diesel and Ice looked at him and Diesel wrapped his arms around Riff. Riff's arms were flailing around crazy. Ice grabbed his arms and said,"Riff,take a deep breath." Diesel rubbed his back,"Deep breaths buddy boy." Riff's breakdown got worse and soon Diesel sat on the floor and held Riff to his chest (Riff's back to his chest) and Ice knelt in front of him,"Riff. We know you're worried and everything but we need you to take deep breaths. In and out. In through your nose,out through your mouth." Riff took a deep breath and soon calmed down and lay in Diesel's arms peacefully. They moved Riff to a nearby chair.
