Today was his graduation and I was sad and excited.

Are you guys ready?

Yes I said  it was just me, my mom, Sebastian and our  grand parents.

My father claimed he had something to do but I really didn't care he wasn't worthy of my caring anyway.

They had people outside of our house so we had to hire someone to get us around. I had been to some of the protest that they had been having and it started to get very crazy and rowdy. 

So the police will show up and cause their technical drama. I had to stay away because my mom said I was somewhat a target and I'm so much connected to this investigation so I couldn't do much so I wouldn't be harmed. 

I had on a shirt with my brothers graduation picture on the front with all of our pictures on the back with some white ripped up jeans and my black and white retros. 

I grabbed my speaker and walked out the house.

Graduation they had people coming up to us speaking asking for hugs and much more when we finally made it to our seat I could see his seat it had a picture of him with cards flowers teddy bears and more seating  around it.

I got up out of my seat  going to the stage my brother was a valedictorian  and he was supposed to soak I knew him more than anyway and in anyway to make my brother feel alive I would do it.

As we stand here today to congratulate the class of twenty fourteen some or most of you or maybe all of you may feel as this is bitter sweet because one of your  very own class mates recently passed due to police brutality so he cannot celebrate this joyous moment. It's not bitter sweet because he can celebrate this day he will celebrate this moment with us through us because now he lives through us so class of twenty fourteen turn up it's all day.
As he would say congratulations fellow students.

Everyone was on their feet giving me an applause I got down walking back to my seat. You are so strong because I couldn't do it my mother whispered in my ear. 

Two hours later it had finally came Samual. R. Wright  the entire building began to scream out of excitement as we got down to receive his award for him. In honor of him can we get a moment of silence everyone did as told.

Thank you. 

It's hard to see so many leave so tragically especially a young black man who had so much going for themselves.

He was determined he was one of my brightest students a little bad and rowdy at times but was one of my best students as a black principal as a black male society and not all Caucasian people think highly of us they see us locked in jail and or Dead because of the streets.
But that wasn't the case they tried to define him by his color so they read him wrong judging him and ended up taking his life we want and we need justice this young man comes from a very good family and this does not sit well with me because I have a son so say it with me

NO JUSTICE NO PEACE NO RACIST ASS PILICE WE WANT ANSWERS AND WE WILL GET THEM!

My mother hugged the principal and we walked off the stage leaving once the graduation ceremony was over.

Just as if Sam was here we were headed to a restaurant we decided on out back yard one of his favorites, we were immediately seated and served.

Mid way through dinner my father decided to show up he say down next to my mother they shared a kiss I rolled my eyes.

So I wanted to talk to you guys about something my mother smiled, I nodded for her to continue. How do you feel about us moving getting a new start a new house.

I felt like she was trying to play with me I looked around the table seeing majority just as confused and mad as me. It will be better if  can't stay here no more.

OMG CAN YOU STOP TRYING TO MAKE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU WE ARE ALL GOJNG THROUGH THE SAME THING AS YOU I FEEL LIKE YOU ARE ALREADY TRYIMG TO FORGET ABOUT THEM YOU REALLY DIDN'T WANT TO GO SAMMYS  GRADUATION Y OU DIDN'T WANT TO SPEAK THAT WAS FINE BIT NOW YOU ARE TRYING TO MOVE.

Adira wait I am not trying to forget about my son I had  both of them and loved them  just as much as you did but I feel that it would be better for us especially because I am having another baby.

WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME NOW YOU ARE BRINGING ANOTHER BABY INTO THIS WORLD WHEN HE IS NOT EVEN A GOOD FATHER TO THE  FOUR HE HAD .

Adira okay we won't move but can we at least clear out their room I don't want to see it be around it it will tear me then what I already tearing up inside.

My brothers  haven't  even been gone for a month and y'all are ready to throw them  away for what so y'all can try and act as if he doesn't exist no you can't.
Now you wait a minute I'm you father and you will not disrespect your mother like that he was my son and I am also hurting about this.

SHUT THE FUCK UP PLEASE because all you want to do is run and beat on my daughter now Samantha you are my child and those are  my grandsons you will not move nor clear out neither  room.

All Adira is saying is that that's her last thing she has left of her brothers  and she wants to keep it. She did watch not one but two of her brothers die in her arms and or the same day.

she had never ever raised her voice nor has she ever disrespected you or anyone else but you are being selfish to her and her baby brother and it's not fair to her so fix it.

Now Adira I need you not to curse again in any ones  presence again I understand you are hurting but don't disrespect or yell at your parents do you understand me I nodded wipe your face and stop crying because sam nor Shawn wouldn't want you cursing yelling nor crying I nodded.

And you if you ever in you life touch tell or look at my daughter and grand daughter wrong I will not hesitate to kill you this time  before the only thing that saved you was my granddaughter remember that.

He put money on the table getting up out of his seat he kissed me on the forehead I love you baby girl.

I love you too grandpa.

Samantha If you in any kind of way need me call me and just know if you need space time I will take them for you she nodded.

We all left once we made it home I went to my brothers room going into his draw  getting his spare key out I locked his room door before going into my own. I laid down once I had taken my shower as Sidney came in laying down next to me. Is Sam and Shawn  okay up there me don't want nobody to hurt them.

Sidney has this dyslexia  but we are always working and helping him and he's getting better. Yes he's perfect . When Is they coming home?
They are  not coming home. One day when  his other father God wants us to come visit them  so that's when he will go but one at a time because it's a very special place.

Can me and you go together?

I don't know.
He cuddled next to me going to sleep on my arm.

I have to be the big sister and follow in my big brothers footsteps. After all we are the only two left.
