The morning is peaceful, as the blazing sunlight reflects through our windows and the cold AC air is felt against our skin.

7th of August- the day we say our final goodbye's to Mum Grantie.

Neither of us is ready for this but I guess letting go is a must.
Obviously, this affects Kevaun more but he tries hard to put up an act of bravery.

He moves around the room, and releases a sigh.. periodically.
Almost dressed, I sit comfortably on the chair and watch his every move.

His tatted, muscular back tenses as he puts on his tie then takes his blazer from the closet's hanger, after.
Moving slowly towards him, I take it from his hold and carry on the actions of doing it myself.

I hear his calm breathing and under my lashes, I stare up at him with a smile. He doesn't return it but yet still, he places a kiss on my forehead.

Leaving me in the room, he goes to the bathroom and closes the door.. then his low sobs are heard.

Concerned, I contemplate if I should just give him space or if I should comfort him but I later decide to let him be.

I try to block out his cries as I fix my hair but it distracts me everytime and a feel of sympathy washes over me.

Heaving a sigh, I do a 360 of the dress on my body and smile.

To say the least, I look good.

Babe then leaves the bathroom and our eyes immediately make four.
His eyes red, but you can't really identify if he was smoking or crying.

I turn to face him and he looks away from me before going to tye the laces of his white clarks.

"Babe.. how are you feeling?" I question him, genuinely worried and wanting to know what he's feeling inside.

Since we came home from the 'set up' last night, he has barely said anything. He's even smoking harder than usual, and I hate it.

"Like mi waah kill somebody, but I can't do that. Mi gov stills."

Not responding to his answer to my question, I simply nod. He stays quiet for a while until- "Just waah get this over with, you know."

"..and we will. We just have to be strong babe." I tell him and takes his hand in mines.

"I love you, okay?"

He smiles then stands, his tall frame towering over me.
"If you'd get the chance to see my heart, if you look closely, you'll see your name planted on it."

Watching the birds fly away with teary eyes, I lay my head on Kevaun's arm and close my eyes.
