Raquel Pov
" My alarm clock on my night stand went off at 5:30am, ugggh' I hate waking up early, I hit the stupid clock to get it to shut up and turned closing my eyes "
" Raquel get up right now you gotta' be at school by 7 and I gotta' be at work by 8, don't make me come over there " Rolonda said.
She standing in Raquel's door way in a fluffy robe joggers and a T shirt with fluffy socks on as a replace for slippers
They don't wake RJ up but still cook for him, he drives himself back and forth to his high school and wakes himself up, he's particularly 2 years away from going to college becoming a grown man
Raquel groaned forcing herself out the bed and emidatelly walked out to the bathroom
Raquel routine in the morning is that she uses the bathroom and showers then dresses herself and has her book bag already packed
-
" I walked downstairs ready with my book bag, my mom was sitting out my plate and I emidatelly sat at the table and started eating cinnamon oatmeal with slides apple wedges on top and apple juice on the side "
" While I ate my mom did my hair quickly, I let her put it in half up when she was done she walked away upstairs usually to get ready to work at the fancy resturant called Bianca's "
" I never see RJ in the morning, he gets up on his own time but he's still a A B student "
" We left out at 6:50am"

" After dropping my daughter off I drove back home "
-
" It was 7:13 am I stood up calling Reggie pissed off, he's been gone so much lately, he hasn't tried calling or texting me and I hate text, I stopped at the news "
" I don't know where you at but when you get home your fucking dead Reggie Matthews, I'm gonna' kill you " Rolonda said sending him the message.
She finally brought her attention to the news picking up her apple juice taking a sip
" Reggie Matthews was in a car crash and rushed to southern Regional hospital 2 hours ago but he's been dead since late last night "
" My eyes widen, I dropped my glass of apple juice and and it shattered hitting the floor "
" I just froze, did I just hear what I thought I heard, my husband had been in a car crash "
" RJ came downstairs and I heard him making himself the brakefast I made earlier "
" Mom you ok, why you standing there like that " RJ said.
" Your dad he's been in a car crash " Rolonda said.
" Seriously mom what's wrong, don't play like that " RJ said.
Rolonda rewinded the flat screen and her son was just as shocked as we was
" We gotta' get to the hospital find out if he's ok " Rolonda said.
" What about Raquel " RJ said.
" What about her, I'mma' pick her up like I do everyday plus she's too young to understand all this " Rolonda said.
" Ok fine " RJ said.
