Leilani POV:

Dis is tha most depressin' day of my life. I took it tha hardest cuz we were super close. But I haven't cried yet. It juss threw me off cuz one day I see him and tha next he's gone. I been in LA fa tha whole week instead of school. But I'm glad I got ta see him befoe dis. I'm glad we took tha pictures we took. And I'm glad we spent all tha time dat we could ta'getha. I juss wish it was moe...

Janae POV:

I swea' MeMe about ta pass out. And not one of dem dramatic pass out moments eitha. She doesn't want ta get out tha limo. So me, B, Aug, Kirk, and Mike were trynna calm ha down. Nun has worked. So we decided ta let Aug talk ta ha. He knows what she is feelin'. So we know it's betta dat way. We got out tha limo and went in tha church. Bresha and I sat by Lisa. Dis is hard fa ha too considerin' dey have a child. It's hard fa er'body. But mostly fa those two...

August POV:

MeMe has been cryin' eva since dis mornin'. Tha kids haven't dropped a tear yet. Dey like me in these situations...dey wait until afta and wait a long time. Nae and nem juss got out tha limo. When dey close tha doe, I turn MeMe body so she can look at me. I grab a tissue and dab ha face so ha make-up won't come off

Me: "Beybe I know it's hard. But chu have ta breath. Quees wouldn't want chu cryin' and bein' sad. He would want chu smile cuz you know he...is in a betta place..."

Mariah: "I juss want him hea'..."

Me: "I know. Trust and believe I know. And Imma tell you juss like you tol' me. Quees may not be hea' on earth but he's always in yo heart. And babe he will be hea' in spirit. Juss think about all tha good times dat chu did share. From tha day you met him and every time afta dat. It's gonna take some time afta ta'day but you'll eventually get there"

I pushed ha hair back and she grabbed ha shades...

Me: "I'm hea' fa you..."

She peck my lips and hugged me and I kissed and hugged back

Mariah: "Thank you"

Me: "Yo welcome"

I kissed ha cheek, open tha doe, get out, and we go in. She's gonna cry regardless. Dats a no brainer. But she'll heal down tha road. All I can do is comfort...

Mariah POV:

I started not ta get out tha car. Only cuz I was spazzin' out. Aug got me ta calm down. He has always known how ta calm me down. When we walked in, NeNe and Chris came up ta me. Dat was a smart move. He hugged me and I hugged back. But it was a friend type of hug. NeNe grabbed my hand and we went ta our seat. Tha moe I look at tha casket, tha moe I cry. August wrapped his arms around me and held me wit a tight grip. And neva again will I listen ta dis song. Na dat I'm sittin' right in front of his casket...it's startin' ta really hit me...

Pastor: "Today, family and friends, we are here to celebrate the life of Marquees Antonio Jones..."

August: "Mariah..."

Me: "She wanted it. You want a piece?" I asked holdin' a piece of chicken in his face

August: "*laughs* Nah. I ate already. But thank you"
