My sister's boyfriend (thug love)

Chapter 6

"fought for you the hardest, it made me the strongest. So tell me your secrets,
I just can't stand to see you leaving
But heaven couldn't wait for you"
- Beyoncé

Brittney's POV

"Baby wake up, it's 8 now get ready you have a hour and a half." My aunt bernice said shaking me. I sat up and wiped the loose tears out of my eyes.
It's been exactly a week since my parents death and today was the funeral. I haven't been to week every since that one day so I just know for a fact I'm fired. I don't give a fuck though, that job is my least concern right now. I got up and went across the hall to the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror and felt disgusted, my eyes were swoll and I had tear stains on my cheeks. I started my shower and let it heat up while I sat on the counter.

I took a long hour shower then hopped out. I dried of put on my panties and bra then headed to my room to put on my dress. Unlike normal funerals we didn't wear black, we wore my parents favorite which were lavender for my mom and blue for my dad. All the females wore lavender while the male wore blue. I took my dress out the plastic unzipped the back and slid it on, It was a lavender skater dress. I put on some cream 4 inch heels and went back into the restroom to do my hair and make up. I Un rapped my hair and let it fall down my back since it was already flat ironed. I decided on no make up today. Fuck it.

After everyone was ready we loaded up In cars and headed to the church. A while later the church filled up with our entire family, some people from the news channels, co workers of my parents and friends. Then the funeral begun.

****

"They didn't want us to be crying and moping over them!" I nodded my head and wiped the falling tears. After about two hours the funeral was almost over but I was about to make the closing speech. I got out of my seat and walked over to the stand bypassing my aunt on the way.

"Be strong baby girl." My aunt nicki said patting my back.

I nodded and stood in front of the stand

*clears throat*
"Well this is very hard on me and I might break down here and there but I just want to start off saying im going to really miss my parents alot. They were my whole heart man, we have so many memories so many and it's heart breaking they had to die in a tragic way. We never argued much it was a healthy family relationship and every Friday we'd have family night. *lightly laughs* they did everything they could all the way up to my graduation day then i was on my own." I said causing people to laugh.

"I'm really going to miss them but I love them so much. They might have left their physical bodies but their souls will live forever and they will always be alive in our hearts. I remember when I was about 5 all the way up till I was 18 my mom and dad would come in my room at night and sing to me and when I finally learned the words around 6 I'd sing along too and today I'm gonna sing the same song to you." I took a deep breath and begun singing.

"Sometimes these walls seem to cave in on me
When I look in your eyes, I feel alive
Some days we say words that don't mean a thing
But when you holding me tight, I feel alive

Make it last forever
Come one baby won't you hold on to me, hold on to me
You and I together
Come one baby won't you hold on to me, hold on to me

Each day I feel so blessed to be looking at you
Cause when you open your eyes, I feel alive
My heart beats so damn quick when you say my name
When I'm holding you tight, I'm so alive
Now let's live it up

Make it last forever
Come one baby won't you hold on to me, hold on to me
You and I together
Come one baby won't you hold on to me, hold on to me
