I started to cry at what the email said.

From: Seaford Police Department

It is to our understanding that you are the girlfriend of Brandon Southerland. We think you should know about what happened to Brandon while he was leaving the flower shop. while he crossed his vehicle on a green light, a Pick up truck ran the red light and hit Brandon on the driver's side and slammed him into a near by pole. The truck then drove away, not taking responsibility. When the ambulance finally got to him, he was still conscious but close to death and there was no way to help him out. His last words were "Tell Jack to take care of Moana... And tell Moana that I love her and to move on." After those words, his eyes fluttered closed and he was pronounced dead on September 25th, 2011 at 8:22am. We also found a bouquet of red tulips in his hand with your name on it that said "Love is for Eternity". I am so sorry for your loss.

Sincerely,

Seaford Police Department

I slammed my computer shut and started crying really hard and loud in my seat.

"NO!" I started to scream at the top of my lungs. "BRANDON!" I woke everybody up and they looked at me like I was crazy. "WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE BRANDON?!" I screamed, as Jack rushed by my side held me in his arms. I dug my face into his chest and started crying as hard as possible.

"What's wrong Moana?" Jack whispered in my ear.

"What happened to Brandon?" Milton asked. I pointed at my laptop and Kim opened it and read the message out loud. I started to cry even harder as she read it out loud. When she finished everyone huddled around me in a group hug and tried to make me feel better. after 2 hours everyone went home, except Jack. He was still by my side, hugging me, stroking my hair, and rocking me back and forth. After another half hour I stopped crying because there were no more tears left to shed. He pulled back to look at me, smiled and said that everything will be okay. The way he Looked at me and spoke made me smile as well. I hugged him tight and fell back asleep in his arms. I wish it wasn't Brandon...
