A Parent Should Never Have To Bury Their Child

TYRONE.

"I'm sorry Mr Royal....Nobody survived." The doctor said to me. I couldn't hide the heartache, I just cried. I dropped to my knees and cried. I couldn't believe it. I failed them all.
Jayden, Mica, MJ, Tanayah and her kids, Rochelle and her kids, Princess and her daughter, Robin and Hope. Coco and my wife. All gone.

As I cried I saw Terrence enter the hospital room, before I could do anything he shot the rest of my family and then me.

I jumped out of my sleep sweating. I kept on having the same nightmare over and over. Every time I woke up; I was angry and wanted to kill Terrence with my bare hands. I looked to the side of my bed and it was empty. Of course it was empty, it had been like that for the last six weeks.

I decided to get up and go for a jog; it took my mind off of things and it was a good way for me to keep fit. After my jog, I showered and got dressed then I just sat on the bed in my suit. I couldn't believe what I had to do today. The last six weeks have been so hard. I had to be strong for the family but my determination was weakening.

Communication was poor, no one was talking. Christmas was approaching and nobody seemed bothered. Everyone stayed in their house and grieved. I have seen everyone twice. The day of the fire, and the day we planned the funeral arrangements.

West knocked the door.

"You ready?" He asked me.

"No. But I gots to be." I said to him.

When we got to the church we were the first ones there. I didn't want to travel with the coffins. It made it seem all too real. I wanted it to be a bad dream, like the one I had been repeatedly having.

They say a parent should never have to bury their child. Well today, I had to say goodbye to not one, not two, but three of my children and one of my grandchildren...
