Epilogue

Slide to the left for a song.

Remy A. Alsina

"And now we will have the author herself come up and say a few words."

I walked up to the podium with Aubrey on my hip.

"Hello everyone. First and foremost I want to thank each and every one of you guys for coming out. Secondly, I just wanna express that this book took a lot of blood, sweat and tears. The past few years have been a rollercoaster and I'm blessed to have this gift of being a writer to pull these pint up emotions out and onto paper. And I'm especially glad that you love it as much as I do. Thank you."

The room erupted in applause as I took a seat at the table.

I was having my first ever book signing and was bubbling with excitement.

Despite August running late, this day had been perfect.

"Make it out to Mr. Jones, please." My favorite high school teacher smiled down at me and I stood to hug him.

"Oh my God, I'm so happy to see you!"

"I had to come and support one of my most talented students. I'm so proud of you, Remy. I'm glad that you took what I already knew you had in you and did something amazing with it," Mr. Jones almost made me cry, "And who is this pretty girl?"

"This is my daughter, Aubrey."

"I'm so glad you've turned into this mature young lady. I wish you the best, Remy."

"Excuse me, excuse me, best friends and number one supporters coming the fuck through!" I heard Dayvid as soon as he walked in.

Followed by Bahja and Natalia, with her son who was much bigger since I saw him.
