Today's the day Deshawn comes home FOREVER. They didn't need him anymore.
I've been missing him and I know Jada and Jayden miss him too. So I decided to throw a party for his return. I invited family, friends, and neighbors.
"He's here! He's here!" They shouted.
I watched as military men came from the car carrying a flag. "No! No!" I shouted.
"You can't do this to me. Not right now." I shouted.
The men walked up to the house and handed the flag to Kevin and letters.
I read the letter on top through tears.
" Dear Krystal , We regret to inform you Deshawn was killed in battle at 6:30 on the Morning of April while an enemy force shot him. We're so sorry.
Sincerely, Official Joshua.
United States Military"" Deshawn's GONE!!" I cried.
I ran to my room and locked the door behind me.
Why did you have to go? We finally got everything to make a house a home and now you're gone? Why did you have to leave me?!

Leads us back to where we began. The funeral.
Deshawn's funeral.
"Mrs.Omar is there something you would like to say?" They asked.
I stood up.
"I haven't slept in months. I'm growing bags under my eyes. Nights has grown cold and lonely. The man that I have fell in love with is now gone! This is too soonn. Some things are too good to be true. I don't want anything. Nothing will ever make me happy again. He loved me in a way I didn't think was possible. Now I look at my kids and I see him- " Tears fell.
"This isn't how I planned on things ending. It was suppose to be me and him forever. It was suppose to be me and him. I look to the cloud and I know he's there looking down on me and those gorgeous kids of ours. That's the only reason why I keep going. I wish I could get one more day with you. I wish you were still here. I love you baby. I love you Deshawn Omar. Rest baby. We love you. And no worries I'm holding it down for you." I finished.
I left from the grave site a whole new person. It's all your fault. I will never forget you.
