007. BLACK WHEREVER I GO
Seems like bad things always happenin' to good people.
Romans 8:28 says: "And we know that for those who love God, all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose."
Lord, Im tryin' to figure it out, but I can't see the purpose in this
"She was so bossy" Gladys says as she stands up in front of the podium
"Ooh. From the minute she was born, she started running things"
"She was a... she was a doer, she was a go-getter. And she worked her way through school
"And she worked her way through school. What a child"
"She'll stand the test" Gladys sniffles as she looks down
"What happened to Danielle, it was wrong. It was wrong! And it's this world that we live in!" Gladys states
"And the way we live in it. It's the reason why she's not here"
Gladys walks off the podium as Pastor Harris makes his way up to the microphone
"Sister Gladys, we are all gonna lift you up in prayer"
Soraya wraps her arms around Danielle's children, consoling them as they hold sad expressions on their faces
She knew exactly how it felt to lose a parent, she felt so much for them and wouldn't wish this type of pain on anyone
"This is a sister, a daughter, a granddaughter, a niece, a friend, a cousin, that's gone too soon"
'I'd like to invite my sister in Christ, Sister Kelly Price" Pastor Harris walks off the podium as the Grammy Nominee gospel singer says her condolences to Gladys and makes her way to the podium
As the woman begins to sing Soraya feels Danielle's daughter laying her head on the hazel eyed girl's shoulder and notices her son having tears in his eyes
Soraya hated that they were going through something like this, she knew that losing your mom at a young age could heavily affect you
She wanted to tell them that everything was gonna be okay but she deep down she know things would change for the two kids like things changed for her and her sisters
Soraya walks out the kitchen, pushing past everyone while holding two plates filled with food
She places the food in front of the two kids and pulls a chair sitting with them
