Continuing..

Hearing that shit made my whole world come crashing down.

"Noooo.!!" I burst out crying dropping my phone running downstairs.

Bubbah was the first person I saw and started to panic.

"Sis why you crying, what's wrong."

"Pops had a heart attack and he didn't make it."

Grabbing my keys we ran to the cars and hauled ass to Grandma Shy house.

Pulling up I noticed my mom's car and another car I knew too well.

Before walking in the house I threw on some ray-bans, I hate when people see me cry. Everyone was sitting on the back patio. I didn't walk in right away because I tried to contain my emotions.

Seeing everyone making there way to the kitchen I turned on my heels and went to Grandma Shy and Pops room and just laid on the bed still not believing that he was gone.

Hearing movement behind me I knew it was Grandma Shy by the smell of her perfume.

Closing my eyes the tears started to slowly fall again. "I miss him." I whispered hugging his pillow tightly.

"I know sweetie I miss him too." Going over to her dresser she pulled out a box.

"This was his birthday gift to you, he made it himself."

Opening the box there was a silver necklace with the word "Bella" on it. Pops was always handy with his hands, he made any and everything. Seeing this necklace made me burst out into tears.

{Later That Day}

Waking up I realized I was still laying on Pops side of the bed. Going to the bathroom my face was stained with tears. Washing that shit off I made my way downstairs.

Holding my head I felt a headache coming on as I looked up at everyone staring at me.

"The fuck.." I mumbled walking into the kitchen to find something to eat.

"Aw my honey bunches of oats."

Turning around my face went right into my mama chest, shit felt weird.

"Mama I'm okay."

"Okay, Are you sure, you hungry, I can cook you something I know how weird you are about your food."

Which was true I absolutely​ hated when my food touched, I don't let anyone fix me anything to eat because they would pile everything on top of each other on one plate. Shit looks disgusting and I ain't eating that shit either.

Looking back at the food on the stove I shook my head at it.

Removing her arms from around me I shook my head no. "That's okay Ma imma just go grab something."

"Okay sweetie." She said sadly as I walked away. I just didn't feel like being bothered by anyone especially if they keep asking me if I'm okay.

I grabbed my keys heading for the door.

"You not gone speak." My two faced Auntie Fay questioned.

I shot her a death glare continuing out the door. Unlocking my car door I heard the screen door close behind me.

"Uh excuse me, we know you're upset but you not just gonna up and shut us out."

Looking back Amore' and Cartier walked up to me.

I blankly stared at them. "I don't wanna be bothered."

"And..neither do we but we're gonna not wanna be bothered together."
