Aiesha's Point Of View:
Tears rolled down my face as I rub my seven month pregnant belly. Today was a day of gloom and sadness.
The reverend begins his sermon but my mind cant concentrate. I look at the mahogany casket with gold trimming.
My mother reaches for my hand and she squeezes it. Our tears stained on our faces. Theo and the kids sit close to me. They are trying not to cry but can't help it.
"He was a pillar of his community as well as a devoted father husband and musical entertainer..." Reverend Henton says as I felt the twins kick in my belly. Pregnant with twins and I couldn't even be happy about it.
My inner thoughts are interrupted when it's time for me to stand up on the podium and speak. My mother asked me days before if I wanted to still do it as due to my condition I shouldn't be stressed. But I had to it was my only way to get clarity and peace.
My beautiful daughters Paris and Avalon held my hand as we walked up to the podium together.
"Thanks to everyone who are in attendance I am sure my father would appreciate this display of love here today..." I say as I gripped the podium and my daughters stood next to me.
"My father was a one of a kind type of man. Always a strong fighter and he had a brillant mind. He would tell me Lil Bit you can do anything you want to. You just need the perseverance, and the confidence to believe in your abilities and dreams..." I say as I reminisce about my father and the many pep talks we had over the years.
Looking out at the crowd at all the faces of my friends and family. I really realized how much I have grown. How much time has passed and I never thought I would of been down this road.
After my eulogy and the other patrons speaking. I watch as they lower my father's casket into the ground and I let a tear fall. I look up at the clear blue sky asking the lord for a prayer and for mercy from this grief.
"Honey are you okay?" The sound of his voice offered some comfort as I turn and bury my face into his chest.
"Butterscotch it's going to be okay. You just got to take it one day at a time..." Tyrone says as he rubs my back and I continue to cry.
"Mama can we go see Daddy today?" My son Bigi says as he touches my fingers and I quickly wipe my tears.
"Yeah sure baby we can go today. I need for you to just find your brother Theo and I will be there as soon as I am done talking to Uncle Tyrone okay?..." I say as he smiles before kissing my belly and running off.
All the children love the incoming twins so much and each are taking a job to want to help me. I know that these kids will be love I just hope they get to meet their father when they are born.
