"baby move you're in my way "I say as I laugh pushing him out of the way. Everything that day seemed to turn out too well until I got a phone call."Chris the phone is going to hang up "he had me in a huge bear hug.'let it ring it cant be that important". He says leaving kisses down my neck.

  "ok,ok come here "I grab his face with both of my hands and give a kiss. I grab his hand leading him upstairs before I can reach for the bedroom door handle my phone starts to ring again.

 "ok baby im answering it this time". I quickly run downstairs to grab my phone. "Hello"

    "Aaliyah thank god you answered ...its Mariah...she...she's not doing too well ,they found her on the side of the road. She had severe cuts on her thighs and arms. I don't know if she's going to make it...I need you to come to the hospital on 43rd street. With that she hung up and the tears slowly flowed down my face.

   "who wa...Aaliyah why are you crying ,who was that ".I couldn't speak ,I don't even think I moved from that position until I felt Chris pull me into a hug. 'we have to go to the hospital right now". With that I grabbed my keys and rushed out the door ,being followed by a very confused Chris.

   once we got in the car I sped off im pretty sure I ran four red lights on the way,but I didn't care I needed to see my sister.After about what seemed like forever we had finally made it to the place, the car barely stopped before I hoped out.

  "excuse me do..."BEEP all the doctors began to rush to a room. I saw my mom stand up,thats when my heart stopped .I ran to the room all the doctors were running to. Everything seemed to go in slow mo ,I was looking through the window as they were pushing on my sisters chest. I tried to rush through the door. "you cant go in there"...'that's my sister in there let me through'. I kept pushing and pushing til Chris picked me up and I kept playing in my head "no pulse sir".

  'mariahhhhh"I was kicking in Chris arms .he slowly put me down putting his arms around me as I cry into his chest. After about thirty minutes the doctor comes walking out."um...the Martinez's" I didn't want to hear the bad news but I listened anyways.

   "im sorry but Mariah didn't make it ,she died from serious blood lost ,but we have some info saying that she was raped". I cry into Chris shirt. "by the looks of it the cuts happened yesterday. We have contacted the police to see if they can figure out who did this to her". Everything seemed to go quiet as I felt a little breeze fly pass me with a smell of cinnamon.''Mariah"i say in a whisper. Chris looks down at me.

   'you ok baby 'I slowly knod my head he wipes my tears off my face. I turn to my mom giving her a big hug.me and my mom haven't really talked since my dad died and she found someone else, but she needed this hug and I did too. 'why us mom, why did this happen to her. This is all my fault". Earlier yesterday I was on the phone with Mariah, she was going on and on about this party she wanted me to go to with her.

    *flashback*"liyah come on ,come with me it will be funnnn'she says most likely doing a little dance ."no Mariah i have to get enough sleep for this job interview "I say going through my closet finding something to wear.

   'please sissy please, we wont even stay out that long". I roll my eyes ."no girl maybe next time". I hear her groan I laugh.

   "ok fine Ill just go by myself, but sis i will call you back I have to get ready ok i love you "...."i love you too have fun be safe mwah". That was last time i talked to her.

  The couples days after I don't believe I left my room. Chris would take care of me bringing me food and drinks even though i really wasn't eating as much. A piece of me was gone and it was my fault. This morning i was looking through our baby book when i felt the same breeze from the hospital ."Mariah i know you're here please show yourself I want to see you 'i quickly looked around the room for any sign that she was here.'Aaliyah".it was a whisper close to my ear .she kept repeating it till i hear it near my mirror. I slowly walk over to it placing my hand on it.I began to feel the mirror getting colder. "Aaliyah". I look up ,I began to cry when i see her standing in the mirror putting her hand in front of  mine.

     "Mariah im so sorry" I look down to the floor.'liyah this isn't your fault at all. Her voice was so distant and low that i could barely hear her.

   "who did this to you "with that she disappeared and the mirror temp returned to its normal state. "Mariah...Mariah no come back'.i began pounding on the wall. that's when i woke up.

  "baby shhh its ok im here...im here".Chris  was very comforting as she starts to rub my head leaving a kiss every now and then on my forehead.
