Saturday 8:30pm
Me and dime are walking around K.O.P mall. We have a bunch of bags but I know the only reason dime doesn't want to leave the mall is because it reminds her of old times. Me her and Nasir would walk around this mall until it closed. Every time we'd come we would all buy each other something. Around Christmas we would all do secret santa. Things will never be the same without him.
"You're thinking about him again aren't you ?"dime asks
"I can't help it.."I confess
"Come on"she says pulling me and we walk over to a stand
"Excuse me"she says to the man
"How may I help you ? " he asks
"Can you make me and my bestfriends matching dog tags ?"she asks
"Yeah, you want two ?"he asks
"No, three and can you put this picture on them" she says handing him her phone
"Yeah, these will be ready in 20 minutes " he says and we go in bath && body works and buy some lotion, perfume and body wash. By the time we're done shopping our necklaces were done. We called a uber and went back to dimes house. We take out the clothes we're wearing to Nasir's funeral tomorrow morning. Afterwards we get in the shower and throw on some sweat pants and hoodies and go sit on Nasir's steps.
"Thanks for the necklace"I say hugging dime
"You don't have to thank me"she says hugging me back
"I wish he was here. He would be yelling at us for spending so much money in the mall and taking all day."I laugh
"Then he would complain because we could never agree on somewhere to eat. "Dime adds laughing
"I'm getting his name tattooed on me"I blurt out
"You wanna go tomorrow? We can get matching tattoos" she says
"Lets go tonight.. it's only 10, Kelly doesn't close his tattoo shop until midnight"I say
"Okay, call him and tell him we're coming"
"Ard"

Sunday morning
6:30am
I'm laying in bed with Dime and we're just staring at the ceiling. We haven't said a word to each other since we woke up, we woke up a half hour ago but we've just been laying here. We have to get up at 7 but we couldn't sleep. We stayed up and smoked all night, we listened to music and laughed at old times.. things will never be the same.
"I can't believe his funeral is today, I've been telling myself I can do this but I don't think I can."dime confesses
"I know, I feel the same way. It's mind blowing that you can go from seeing somebody everyday to never seeing them again"I add
"I'll never get to see him again"Dime cries and I hug her, I feel tears start to slide down my cheek.
"There's nothing I can tell you to help you get through this because I've been trying to tell myself something to get me through today but there's nothing that can be said.. we just have to get through this together.... All three of us."I say and I grab her hand and she squeezes mine a little.
