Married To A Thug

Chapter 49

I woke up getting my kids dressed and then myself. I placed Jayden on a long sleeve with his red and white vest and black pants. I'll put his shoes on later. I heard  horn then looked out the window ! I really didn't wanna go but I know grandma would want me here.

"Come On Y'all" I said. They all came down and I grabbed the book bag with snacks and walked out. We got in my car and pulled off with Dominique car in front of mines. Today , were going to church at mom, Candice and jackie church that we use to go to when we was teens. Haven't been here since Jarod's funeral.

We walked in and sat down on the 5th row. This church was getting packer by the second After a few minutes jermaine, Jamal and kilo them walked in and sat down between us and a man got the mic.

"Look, there grandma mommy" jania said pointing at mom

"Shh, baby I know ! I see her" I said as mom smiled ! The instruments started playing as the choir started singing ' God's on Your Side by Mississippi Mass Choir '

A lady was talking making the whole church laugh.

"I'm sorry y'all, let's Umm ahaha let's get back to the program ! We gone let little ms. Uhh sh- sheki-- baby I'm not gonna even try to pronounce this name" she said making everybody laugh again.

"I bet the reverend like I'm not even gon let Mrs. Angela M/C no more" she said making everybody laugh again. My chest was hurting from laughing. The little girl went up there and song shocking everybody. She had people catching the holy ghost !

"Last Night, I heard about the uhh news about Mama passing last night and I just wanna let the family know that my heart is with you guys during your time of bereavement." A pastor said as I rocked jayden to sleep.

"I wanna share this with you right now. I use to what they say or call disobey my parents when I was a little boy. They'll go to sleep at night but I use to get up and go downstairs and watch TV , I knew when I went downstairs I'll fall to sleep in front of TV but I woke up I was back upstairs. I went downstairs but I woke up upstairs. Reverend Jackson I knew something wasn't right cause I knew i went to sleep downstairs but I always woke up upstairs. I asked my mother and she told me well you know son when you downstairs you fall the sleep and your father would come downstairs while you sleep and take you upstairs where you really supposed to belong, upstairs ! And that's all I came to tell you tania is that last night on March 26, Grandma didn't leave this place she just went to sleep downstairs but woke up upstairs and I don't know how y'all feel about but one of these glad mornings on one of these old days we all gone go to sleep down here and wake up upstairs in our new home" he said as I stood up waving my free hand.

"YEEEEESSSSSSSS" I said as the instruments played loud.

"Give your neighbor a high five and tell em one of these ole days , I gotta home ! It's not downstairs but its UP" he said as that boy had them drums and cymbals going off.

"Yessssss" I said still standing while rocking jayden.

"yes god, yes god, yes god woooooo" a lady across from my row was saying. He had mostly half the church clapping and standing up ! He finished up his sermon and after a few minutes we was leaving. We got to mom house and ate Sunday dinner !
