Chp. 19
Tsai couldn't stop crying under her oversized Chanel glasses. She held her baby tight, so zoned out looking at her mothers picture by the all pink with gold trimming casket that held her mothers body. Tsai almost barely heard the pastor call her name to speak.
Giving a sleeping Tahj to Q she walked up to the mic.
" I'm going to come up here and say my mother was a good person and she was caring all that" Tsai started everyone stared at her wide eyed and pulled her glasses off.
" My mother was the best mother anyone could have, she was the greatest person you could ever meet she was easy to talk to and funny as hell especially that time at Tahir's graduation party when we was all twerking to baby got back" she and everyone else laughed.
" My mom was a trip and she had no filter at the mouth either. I remember one day she came with Tahir, Bianca, Karen, and I to the mall we was in foot locker one of the boys there had his jaw wired. Mommy gone ask what's wrong with your face? Oh my God we was so embarrassed we left her in the store. I was like mommy! You can't be asking people what's wrong with they face like you crazy, she said well he should stay his ass home if he ain't want to be asked about it" Tsai shook her head smiling to herself trying to hold back tears.
" Mommy was a beast at fashion too if anyone went to high school with me and Karen knew we didn't wear anything else but her clothing until junior year. My mother was soo strong she didn't even look like she had cancer that didn't stop her if anything it put her more out there she wanted to do more before she left this earth. My mommy would always said I want to leave this earth doing something good so God can't say I did nothing while I was her-" she broke down and her dad rushed up to her hugging her. Before she let him pull her away she had to say one more thing.
" She taught me to be the smart business woman and mother I am today without her I would be nothing I love you mommy" she let her dad take we back to her seat.
It was Karen's turn to go up she nervously looked at the crowd.
" Ms. Tina was the only mother figure I known my own my mother hated me she felt like I stopped her from having a life. When I had my first time of the month Ms. Tina taught me about pads and all that. When I got pregnant and my birth mother kicked me out her and Mr. Lopez took me in with no hesitation I consider them both my parents. When it came to boys LAWD!" She giggled.
" She would grill the butt out of guys had them so scared talking about cooking them in her oven when they was ten times bigger than her. Just like Tsai she taught me how to be the mother and business woman I am today she made me the woman I today. I thank her for that" Karen walked back down o her seat as the service continued.

" Ugh!! What the fuck! My man is dead and I can't even fit this damn dress with my fat ass!" Tsai screamed at her reflection in the mirror.
" You okay Angel?" Quincy ran in her room.
" No I don't wanna go to another funeral Quincy I can't do this again. I can't hold it together, I feel fat and I can't even fit my dress. On top of all that I gotta fucking SING! No I'm not going!" She started to pull down her dress. It took all the power in Q's body not to look down at her breast and stomach.
" No you gotta go ma, calm down okay let me help you" Quincy help Tsai put back on her black laced long sleeve backless Dior dress and buttoned up the back for her. He left one button in the middle open because she was right it was a little close fitting on her.
Tae sat next to Pac, Tsai and his nephew in the front row of the church.
The whole hood was there, haters, enemies, hoes, friends, and admires. After the funeral the trip had to meet with Dante's lawyer about his will that none of them knew about.
A lot of people talked good about Dante some Tae knew his twin didn't know them. Pac had went up and made everyone cry. A lot of people were shocked to see Tae they didn't know Dante had a twin but that's how he wanted it.
" Do you wanna hold him?" Tsai asked Tae holding a fully awake baby Tahj.
" I- uh-" Tae tried to find an excuse to why he didn't wanna hold his nephew when in all honesty he was scared to.
" Saying uh means your lying" she reminds him.
" Hold him bond with him he's your nephew the only little person with you and your twins DNA" she put him in Tae's arms showing him how to hold his tiny nephew.
The baby gave Tae a gummy grin, he probably thinks I'm his dad Tae thought but couldn't help not to smile back at the baby. He sat stone still so he couldn't drop or hurt him in anyway.
" We have a song from Tsai, Tsai please when your ready" the pastor said.
" Wait what?" Tae tore his gaze from lil Tahj and looked up to see Tsai with a mic in her hand. Pac gave him a death glare he just rolled his eyes.
" This song reminded me of Dante so if I get emotional just excuse me I'm advance" Tsai musters up a smile that was obviously forced.
I fought for you
The hardest, it made me the strongest
So tell me your secrets
I just can't stand to see you leavingBut heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
Heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
So go on, go homeWe laughed at the darkness
So scared that we lost it
We stood on the ceilings
You showed me love was all you neededBut heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
Heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
So go on, go homeTsai started to cry once she calmed down she stopped the music and started to sing acapella.
But heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
Heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
So go on, go homeSo go on, go home
Padre Nuestro
Que estás en el cielo
Santificado sea tu Nombre
Venga tu reino
Hagase tu voluntad
En la tierra como en el cielo
AmenEveryone clapped surprised because they never heard Tsai sing.
" What did you say at the end?" Tae asked her when she sat back down and took Tahj.
" I said our Heavenly Father prayer" she answered and kissed him.
Tae nodded and took a look at his brothers casket it was red and black. They decided to keep it close for the sanity of Tsai.
