The Chriasia Story Part II

Funeral

De'Asia POV

I walked into the hospital room before the funeral. The doctor wanted to check up on me. "Hey De'Asia. We wanted to make sure the baby is ok since you were stressed during this time." he said pulling out the gel and the machine. He put the gel on my stomach and started to look around. "Oh well." he mumbled. 

"What happened?" I asked.

"Well it seems as though the baby is fine." he said after a while. "Would you like the to know the baby's sex?"

I looked around the room. "sure why not?"

He was quiet.  "It's a boy." he said. I smiled. At least I know Nevaeh and Chris will be happy.

"Thank you Dr. Huck." I said as I wiped the gel off my stomach.  I put my clothes on and left. I called Chris.

"Hello?"

"Guess what?" I asked.

"Wassup?" he asked I could tell he was smiling. 

"Boy." I said simply. 

"What?" he asked impatiently. 

"Boy." I said smiling.

"Boy... oh we're having a boy.... WE'RE HAVING A BOY!!!" he screamed. I laughed.

"I was waiting for this."

"I know I was too."

"I love you." he said.

"I love you too. I'm pulling up so come out."

"We already outside. Ty looking at me like I'm a crack addict." I laughed again.

"Come on now n!gga."

I pulled up to the house. Sure enough all of them were outside. Kristianna looked at me and smiled. Everybody got in the car and I drove to the church. It was quiet besides Nevaeh singing to the songs on the radio and Princess and Prince crying.

We went inside the church. My Dad's casket was open. He looked like he did that day when I learned he had cancer. I wanted to cry but I wanted to stay strong for all the kids. I walked up to his casket. He had a smile on his face. I smiled. "I will miss you daddy."  (play video in mm) Chris got up on the stage and started singing. 

How do I say goodbye to what we had?
The good times that made us laugh
Outweigh the bad. 

I started to cry. Chris looked at me and kept singing. 

I thought we'd get to see forever
But forever's gone away
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

I don't know where this road
Is going to lead
All I know is where we've been
And what we've been through.

If we get to see tomorrow
I hope it's worth all the wait
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

And I'll take with me the memories
To be my sunshine after the rain
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

And I'll take with me the memories
To be my sunshine after the rain
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

The pastor walked up to Chris. Then hugged him. I was crying so hard a this moment. Chris's voice singing this was so beautifull. With two l's because it was great. He came up to me and hugged me. "Baby everything will be ok." he assured me. The pastor did the euogle and then my mother walked up. She looked at my father's casket and grabbed the microphone. Then started talking. "I used to tell this to my husband all the time. I never thought the last time i told him this it would be the last time." She started singing Like You'll Never See Me Again by Alicia Keys. 

If I had no more time
No more time left to be here
Would you cherish what we had?
Was it everything that you were looking for?
If I couldn't feel your touch
And no longer were you with me
I'd be wishing you were here
To be everything that I'd be looking for
I don't wanna forget the present is a gift
And I don't wanna take for granted the time you may have here with me
'Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed

So every time you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you'll never see me again
Every time you touch me
Touch me like this is the last time
Promise that you'll love me
Love me like you'll never see me again

She started crying. 

Then I walked up to her. She stopped crying. I hugged her. "I wanna sing." I said causing her to smile. I grabbed the microphone. "I don't care how bad I sound, but this is for the whole family. Including you Daddy." I said. I sang  a part of Mariah Carey's Bye Bye.

As a child there were them times
I didn't get it but you kept me alive
I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes on Sunday mornings
And I miss you, but I'm glad we talked through

All them grown full things separation brings
You never let me know it, you never let it show
Because you loved me and obviously
There's so much more left to say
If you were with me today face to face

I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
I wish I could talk to you for awhile
Miss you but i try not to cry
As time goes by

And It's true that you reached a better place
Still I'd give the whole world to see your face
And I'm right here next to you
But it's like you're gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye

Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye, bye bye

Everybody clapped. "I love you Daddy. I will always love you." I said walking away. 

The End...
