Camille's Pov
I dropped to my knees and cried. He's gone. My bestfriend. He's really gone. I ran to his bunk and I ran into his mother.
I sobbed into her shirt.
"Oh Camille baby what's wrong?" I just couldn't speak. I just can't. "Calm down. What's going on?""Nasir." His name fell from my lips and I sobbed even harder knowing that I'll never hear his voice Or laughter again.
"Yes. Is he okay?" I stopped breathing and shook my head. Her eyes became glossy.
"Was he shot?" She slowly started walking to the house. I nodded my head and she ran to the house. But not before we heard another shot. Our cries became louder as we ran inside and saw Sir James, dead next to Nasir with a gun in his hands. Nasir's mother ran to her son and cried. Master got on his knees and cried over his now dead son.
I layed my head on Nasir's chest and I just sobbed. He was a little brother to me. He made me smile on my bad days.
"Momma." I heard Paul and I ran over to him and she asked "what happened?" I told him and he cried in my shirt and I did the same. The workers behind me cried as well.We all loved Nasir. We all saw the love between them and we thought he was a fool. But he was just in love and so was Sir James. They just couldn't live without one another.
"Why didn't I listen to him Lord why?!" I heard his mother crying. "He told me and I didn't listen!"
Master's sobs were low but I could hear his pain. "Go to your room and get ready for dinner." He nod and runs to his room. I run back over to Nasir and I tried to comfort his mother.
"Camille. He told me he loved James and I thought- I told him James didn't love him. Those were my last words to him. I should've known better. I'm his mother. They really did love each other and I was blind." She put her against his and cried.
Penny came back inside the house but this time with Nasir's father and the man screamed and dropped to his knees by his still body. I walked over to the workers and we watched the LOTH walk in the living area and Drop to her knees at the sight of her dead son.
"He will truly be missed. This Family will truly be punished." Penny gritted through her teeth with a face full of tears. I later found out after I left, James started screaming and crying till he finally snatched the gun and shot him self in the head.
I know these lovers are in a better place and they are keeping each other happy because they didn't see each other for the color of their skin. They saw in each other what we couldn't see in them.
