"Jeremy?" I whimper, coming out of the hallway. I hear him call out for me though his voice is weak and hushed "Benji...?" I was only 8 so I didn't understand what was happening when i heard gunshots coming from the living room of my home in Cuba. "Benjiman?" he yells as I walk into the living room. There is a large man standing over my brother. He's holding a gun. I start to cry. "Benji you have to go with him now." he stutters out "it's not safe here for you." I walk over to the man. "What is your name boy?'' he questions. "Benjiman William Price. The man you left dying on the floor is my older brother, Jerimiah Anthony Price." I say, venom leaking from my words. "I am not the one who did this Benjiman. As you may have heard, there were multiple gunshots, they were not all from my gun" he says as I stare in confusion "Jerimiah was apart of my gang. A member from a rival gang did this. I managed to get a few shots in on him" he looked down "before he ran." He puts his hand out for me to take. I kiss my brothers forehead and whisper a goodbye. All I can hear are cars whizzing by as I take his hand. He leads me out to his black camaro. That was the last time I ever saw my brother alive.

"Benji?" I hear Aaron call my name. I look up at him. I know that he can tell that I'm thinking about my brother. He hands me Elijah and says " I don't feel well. Can you watch her while I sleep?" I nod. He walks off looking a little shook up.
