Tatianna's parents spent days organizing her funeral. It wasn't going to be anything big and everyone that was invited was according to Tati's demands.

She had written a letter to her parents telling them about the incident that took place years ago because she couldn't even bring herself to tell them in person. On the other hand she told Jessica and Courtney in person but she couldn't bring herself to tell them she planned on taking her life shortly after.

A cloud of darkness hung over their house. Words were barely spoken and food was barely touched but tears and sounds of muffled crying seemed to fill the whole place.

Her parents blamed themselves, her sisters blamed themselves and most of all Aiyanna blamed herself because everything revolved around her.

When Tatianna's parents reached out to Aiya to give a speech at Tati's funeral she was shocked since she never met them and had no clue they knew who she was.

Although they were never around, Tatianna's relationship with her parents was top tier and she told them everything. They knew enough about Aiya to know that, that was something Tati would've wanted.

Aiya took the microphone from Courtney as she mounted the small stage. She looked at all the people wearing pink and couldn't help but smile. That's what Tati wanted.

"I only knew Tatianna for a little over two months or as I liked to call her, Princess. I had no idea she was going through so much because she was always the happiest person to be around. She radiated the best energy and I just wanted to be with her all the time but she also had demons that she was fighting and there is nothing more scary about fighting demons than fighting them alone. Her death taught me something and it's unfortunate that she had to resort to taking her own life for us to realize something was wrong. Always make an effort to heal from your trauma no matter how minor you might think it is. PTSD is not a joke and mental health shouldn't be taken lightly either. This is a plea to each and everyone of you to go home and check on your kids, wives, husbands, friends and even coworkers. More people don't have to die for us to realize that masking trauma isn't hard work. I know she's watching over us so I'm going to end with this; Princess if you're listening" She paused and looked out into the crowd then continued,

"I did love you. Very much."

She walked down the podium away from the crowd and picked up her phone. Her message thread with Tati was the first thing that she pulled up.

AIYA: I still love you and I always will.
