I looked at my shirt with me and Laya pictures on it as tears fell out my eyes .
They decided to have separate funerals because Marion needed a bunch of different things done to his body while Laya's was ready to go.
I went to the mall early to get it made and paid extra for them to do it the same day .
Today was her funeral and I'd be lying if I said I was ready to see her in a casket . Laya was like a little sister I never had . I loved her as much as I love T-y .
◤◢◣◥◤◢◣◥◤◢◣◥◤◢◣◥
As I sat with everyone else I looked at her obituary reading it then looking at all the pictures in which they included me in.
As the lady sang and Laya laid in the open casket I couldn't help but to look at her and tears filled my eyes once again , I was trying to be strong for Myona and everyone else but it hurt too bad .
I hugged Myona as we walked up to the casket . Me , her Bouka and everybody else . Myona touched Layas' matching sister necklace that's she wore and placed some flowers on her .
I looked at her touching her hand as tears fell out my eyes . I couldn't even recognize her but deep down inside I knew it was her .
I walked back to the seat sitting next to Myona before the preacher preached .
"There is a period of time where in the bible it describes 'absent from the body and present with the lord' Paul said 'For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body." He started .
Once he finished they let her close family speak then her friends.
Her daddy went up first . "I'm sorry if I get emotional." He started . "I lost two children in one day." He said and the audience gasped . "Marion , my junior and her . Ima save what I wanna save for Marion for his funeral , this about Laya." He nodded. "Everybody know me and Laya had a father daughter bond nobody could break, maybe it was because she was my baby and I knew I wouldn't be having anymore or maybe because my oldest daughter Myona got a boyfriend and left me behind." He chuckled causing everyone else including Myona to laugh too . "Alaya didn't deserve to feel the things she was feeling in her last moments on earth and I'm the reason she felt that way." He spoke and said what he had to say leaving off the podium with tears in his eyes . He kissed her forehead before leaving and Myona went up.
