Part 26

Maya:

I got dressed after I showered. I did my makeup, but not to much because I don't really like wearing makeup.

I haven't heard from my mom in a while so I decided to call, just make sure she's still doing okay.

I picked up my phone and it rings.

"Hey momm-" I wanted to say but got cut off. "Maya. Maya it's me Brian." I heard my brothers voice.

This can't be good.

"Brian. How's mom?" I asked, afraid of his answers. "I'm so sorry Maya. Mom died this morning." He said and it felt like someone punched me in the stomach.

A piece of my was ripped right out of me and I fell down to the ground.

"No." I said softly and I heard Brian sniffing on the other end of the line. "I'm sorry sis." He said and I stared crying.

"It's okay. Guess it was just a matter of time." I cried into the phone. "I was with mom the past few days and she told me that if she doesn't get to call you before... this... she wants me to tell you that she's extremely proud of you and she believes in you." He said and his voice cracked at the end.

"Thank you Brian." I cried full on and hung up. I rested my back against the bed and I cried. My phone dinged and it was Aaliyah texting me. 'Where are you?' She asked and I wiped my tears away.

'Be right there' I replied back and stood up. I fixed my makeup up and took a deep breath before walking down to the lobby.

I took the stairs just to calm down. I walked in the room and everyone was seeted around a table, first one to make eye contact with me was Shawn.

He had a smile on his face but it faded as soon as he saw me. He jumped up from his chair and ran towards me.

That made me smile, knowing how much he cares.

He cupped my cheeks and he looked extremely concerned.

"Maya what's going on?" He asked and I looked down. I just pulled him into a hug and he held me tight. "I'll tell you after breakfast." I said with a few sobs.

He nodded and took my hand, leading me to the table. Nobody asked questions and I appreciated it. I tried to keep it together even though it was really hard.

Every niw and then a tear will roll down my cheek and I'd quietly sob.

But with every tear, Shawn took my hand under the table and gave my hand a reassuring squeeze. I'm thankful for him.

We ordered our breakfast and ate.

The whole time Shawn would look at me and give me reassuring smiles. I love his guy, he is so nice to me and he cares.

He's my superman.
