I hadn't woke up with a massive headache, as I had done the other thirteen nights. I tried to move but I couldn't because of extra weight. I looked around and finally realized that Joey was wrapped around me. I smiled softly and tapped him.
" Jo " I said lightly. He groaned and turned.
" 10 more minutes " He mumbled.
" I'm want to go to the bathroom . " I whined. He turned over and set me free. I jogged to the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror. I had bags due to my lack of sleep which, was expected. Although I may have looked like a mess I felt much better.
I was still heartbroken, as anyone would be once they lost their parent. But as days passed, I've thought about the positives. My mother was in a better place now. I can imagine her above me like the person she use to be. Skin radiant as ever, hair full and curly.
Although she was physically gone, she was spiritually with me more than she's ever been.
I know her and daddy are both happily watching over me. So, what more can I ask for?
I stepped out my clothes and hopped into the shower. I let the hot water wash away all of my sorrows. I was ready to move on. It was time to move on.
I'd finally let go, and I felt amazing.
I put on a sweatshirt and some sweatpants. I walked into the kitchen to see my Aunt cooking breakfast.
She had been great to me since my mother's death and I appreciated it. She's a strong women and I'm happy she is the one riding this wave with me.
" Hey Baby " Aunt Cathy said.
" Hey Auntie " I smiled. She looked up at me with glee.
" Someone's in a good mood? " She said.
" Yes I'm feeling great. What ya fixin? " I asked.
" Bacon and potatoes. " She said.
" Tuff. That's what's up. " I said while sneaking a piece of bacon. I walked back to my room to see Joey spitting some lyrics.

I smiled and placed my hands on my hip. He looked up at me a grinned.
" Hey lil mama. You are glowing right now. " He said.
" Just feeling good that's all pro. " I said. I walked over to him and he pulled me into his lap.
Joey has been another necessity when dealing with what happened. He has not left my side throughout these weeks. We go to school, come back home, lay in the bed. That's it. Sometimes he would rap sweet lyrics to help me go to sleep , or just to calm me in general. I'm forever grateful for him.
