Nia

" Nia I truly thank you for coming I know that she is glad that you are here"

" it's no problem I just hate this happen to her"

Today Asia parents laid her to rest, it was outside with a little rain putting us all in a sad mood.

I still couldn't believe she was gone.

" I understand sweetheart but we will get justice of who done this to her"

Mrs. Smith is a very strong woman to be able to hold her composure during a time like this.

" And I hope you do"

" thank you sweetie you have a bless day"

After leaving the service I headed over to Starbucks to get some green tea.

I wasn't feeling too well I assume it was the weather.

******************
" how was the funeral girl" Marley asked.

She wasn't able to make it since Noel wasn't feeling good either.

" it was nice a lot of people showed up" I said.

" well that's good, I just wish I was there for you girl"

" it's okay Marley I'm good for now"

" I know we all have our days"

" but aside from sad news tell me about you and Rock" she said raising her eyebrow.

A smile graced my face thinking of him. He has truly an all around amazing guy.

" well it was a rooftop dinner"

" ooooo sounds fancy but I'm not gone lie to you"

" what ?"

" I actually helped him plan this, he reached out to me about it"

" reallyyy" I said shocked

" yea he wanted it to be a suprise, but I'm assuming everything went well"

" yes it was .... just everything about it was amazing"

" girl you are glowingggg"

" I'm just happy you know"

Rock is beyond wonderful. I know this may sound crazy but if he were to ask me to marry him I would absolutely say yes.

" well hope he keeps it up"

" I hope so too ... I really do"

Rock

" well look at my baby"

" wassup grams" I said hugging as she kissed my cheek.

" apparently you Najiel is there something you need to tell me"

She gave me look like she knew I was up to something.

" uhhh no" I said honestly.

" it's just funny how I had a dream about some fish" she said smiling.

" r-really" I said taken back.

" mhm, I'm guessing you and Ms. Nia are together now"

" yea we are" I said nodding my head.

" oh my, you better be treating her right Najiel"

" I am, to be honest she the best thing that has ever happen to me"
