2 weeks later...
Looking at myself in the mirror, I fixed my tie trying to decide if I was satisfied with my look.
"You look handsome." Rose said dusting me off.
"I know your mom would say the same thing." She said leaning in for a kiss.
Being at my moms funeral and seeing her for the last time was definitely the hardest thing I've gone through. Everyone was here.
My grandmother, grandfather, aunts, uncles, cousins, and my moms friends. Everybody was here to say their final goodbye to her.
-
"Today we are all gathered around for the mourning of Christina Thorn." The priest started.
I sat in the front row seat between Rose and Aaliyah. Looking down, I wasn't strong enough to face my mother for the last time.
My eyes filled with tears as I heard the priest speak.
I couldn't accept the fact my mother was inside of the brown, wooden casket covered with flowers and candles in front of me.
I let the tears flow and I cried.
Aaliyah's arms wrapped around me.
"It's okay Anthony. You can't keep blaming yourself forever. You know mom wouldn't let you do that. She'd tell you to stop and forgive yourself."
She was right.
I wiped the thug tears away and faced reality.
Rose had tears forming in her eyes as she held Ava.
I got up and placed her favorite flowers on the casket.
"I love you mom. Always." I Whispered.

Rose's POV
1 year later...
Aaliyah and I decided to move out of that house. It held bittersweet memories ,but since Christina's passing we knew it was best for us to leave.
Aaliyah moved in with her boyfriend, Anthony and I found a house together to raise our family in. It wasn't big or luxurious, but it was something and we made the most out of it.
Ava was a little headache all the time with her walking around and getting into things. She looked and acted like me for the most part. Her black loose curly hair was down to her shoulders and she had teeth coming in.
-
"Bae, I wanna give you something." Anthony said walking into our room holding a little gift bag.
"It better not be one of your stupid pranks Anthony." I signed rolling my eyes.
"Babe relax."
In the box there were two separate jewelry boxes.
The first box looked long and promising.
"Oh my god. Anthony!" I said in awe.
It was the missing piece to my grandmothers necklace.
"I knew you'd appreciate it." He added.
"Where did you find it?" I asked examining it.
"Don't worry about that." He smiled.
"Open the second box."
The second box was a ring box and i knew exactly what would be inside.
A beautiful gold and diamond wedding ring in the shape of a Rose.
"I want you to be mine for the rest of my life." He said.
"Of course. It's beautiful I love it. Thank you." I Said overjoyed hugging him and kissing his lips.

Y'all gonna need to know a lil Spanish for this next part & if you don't too bad.
One random day...
I was out grocery shopping with Ava picking up the normal necessities we needed.
"Excuse me ma'am where's the hair section?" I Asked an employee who was stocking shelves.
"Uhh isle 7." He replied.
"Thank you."
Making towards isle 7, a lady who wasn't paying attention bumped her cart into mine. She seemed as she in a hurry to find something.
"Oh Dios mío." The lady spoke in Spanish in shock as to what she'd done.
"I'm sorry." She said speaking English.
She had tan skin and dark, brown, straight hair that was waist length that had streaks of grey . Her eyes were dark brown as well and her facial features were very sharp and serious looking. Her body was my height and she had wide hips. She wasn't fat, but she wasn't skinny. She was an older woman, pudgy and you could tell she had kids.
"You're fine." I chuckled. Then I kept walking.
"Rosa??" The lady called out.
Thinking to myself, nobody except my mother called me by my real name.
I turned around.
"Madré?" I Said In Spanish.
