The days I dreaded.
3-10-16 . this was the day my uncles found me a truck. One thing I liked about my uncle was that he was a good negotiator. He tested out my truck . the original price was $1500 but he examined the truck from the inside to the outside. He eventually talked the dealer down to $1000.
3-11-16 my son second birthday. The day i decided I wanted the truck. I didn't have a license so he drove it off the lot to our house.
3-16-16 I swear this was one of the worse days of my life . who ever would've thought.
It all started at work. It was a busy day a McDonald's so im making food and at the drive thru at the same time so I hear a order on the headset.he says " yea let me get a sausage gravy with scrambled eggs." And before he could finish I automatically knew it was my uncle because no one else ordered a sausage gravy then way he did. So at this point I'm in the grill making it the way I knew he wanted it. By the time I was done he was at the window. So I handed him his order he told me aite I'll see you at home.
By the time 2:00 hit i was just getting off work. I headed home got dressed and was ready to roam the streets i had a new whip i wanted to be seen behind that wheel lol. He pulled up behind me just as I was about to back out. I really was afraid to drive so I asked him to trail me to my sister house which was all the way across town. He literally just left from over there. He didn't want to do it because he was tired. He eventually gave in and did it anyways. When we arrived at our destination i got out the truck and thanked him for going out of his way for me. He said "you welcome be careful I will see y'all later" those were the very last words I heard my uncle say. I still remember every last detail of that horrific day. .........................................
