Angel POV
I woke to an empty bed and a note.
"Angel,

DADDY PUT IN WORK.
Love
August
"Figures" I mumbled to my self
It's like every time I have sex with him he dips out then when I see him at the trap house he acts like everything is fine and it's not.

I put out my clothes on my bed I was gonna wear my t-shirt that I made when I found out my mom died, some jeans , and my silver Tory Burch sandals. I hopped in the shower. When I got out I threw my hair in a messy bun after putting on my clothes. I put on some waterproof eye liner only on my bottom water line. Then I put on some waterproof mascara on my top and bottom lashes. I grabbed my phone and purse and walked the house locking the door behind me.
I got in my car and drove to the Cemetery. I parked my car and got out. I walked to my mothers grave and put the flowers in the little vase thing switching them with the dead ones. I got down on my knees and kissed her tomb stone.

Gone But Never Forgotten

Next thing I know I'm crying after reading the tomb stone.
I still don't know why they put that sick bastards name on her tomb stone.
James Martinez. The bitch that killed my mother.
"Te amo mami" I said out loud as if she could hear me.
Yea my mom was black but she learned Spanish for my dads family.
I'm glad he's in jail he never deserved someone as good as my mom. i heard she had two other girls after I left. I didn't want to leave but I had to he beat me every day and my mother always was there trying to help me. She didn't care how much he threatened to kill her she still stayed by me. So I told her one day that I couldn't stay and be his punching bag anymore and she understood. She took me to buy an apartment somewhere he didn't know of and she always came by to check on me. even when she was pregnant. I held both of my sisters. I even bonded with them. But then he found out and he went ballistic but she never once let him know where I was. Then I found after a couple of years he killed her and went to jail. I just remember crying and crying and crying. But I knew that my mother would be angry with me because I'm crying because she taught me how to be strong and she told me when she's gone not to cry too much. So I sucked it up.
I just hope that I'll get to see my sisters again.

Ari POV
Today's my moms birthday so I pulled up to the grave site and there was this random red headed girl there and she look like she'd been crying. She put flowers in the case thing and she walked away. I didn't have a problem with her being there it's just that I've never seen her here before but she looks really familiar.
I got out my car and walked over to my mothers grave after seeing the girl drive away.
"¿por qué no limpian tu piedra?" I said to her
"Happy Birthday mami I miss you so much and I can't help but think about this same question.
Why did he do this to you?"
"Ugghh" I yelled
I'm so sick of living like this my mother is gone and she's never coming back. She's gone. She's really gone. And there's absolutely nothing I can do to bring her back.

I walked over to the office at the grave site.
When I walked in I saw a lady sitting at the front desk she had brown hair she looked Hispanic and looked like she was in late 30's early 40's.
" Excuse me who can I talk to about getting my mothers stone cleaned." I asked her.
"Down that hallway and to your left there's the managers office." She said
"Thank you"
"No Problem" She replied looking back at her computer screen.
I walked down to the managers office and knocked on the door.
"Come in" she said
I opened the door and walked in. Her office was actually very nice it had elephant everywhere though which kind of freaked me out a bit not that much though.
"Um I've come to speak to you about a cleaning of my mothers stone."
"Yes um cleaning of the stone is $100 but the first time is always free."
Is this the first time it would be getting cleaned? "
"Yes that I'm aware of."
"Ok well I just need you to fill out this form and your loved ones stone should be cleaned by next week. if it's not cleaned by next week Friday then let me know. Here's my number."
She wrote down her number on her business card and handed to me.
"Is that everything?" She asked me
"Um yea thank you"
"You're welcome" she responded
I walked out of the office and headed over to my car. I got in and started my engine not before getting a text from August.
