"Yes" she muttered while glaring at my father.

"Indie, mi wah give yuh a talk tuh" Dad said joining us on the bed.

I shift over for him to have more space while looking between him and my mother confuse.

Clearly they are worked up about something and I am eager to know what it is and what they have to talk to me about.

"What is it?" I asked turning to my father.

"We want yuh fi move back ya fi a while" he stare at his wife dead in the eye before shifting his eyes to mine.

"What? Why? Uncle Nelly said I can stay as long as I want up there" I stare between then quizzically.

"Indiana we know that but sometimes it's good to listen. We need you back in the house or yuh guh back to new york" Mommy spoke sternly.

Shi think mi a still child weh shinxan order fi do dhis and dhat? Kmt

"I can't do that mommy" I protested as I jump on my feet. "I can't leave Sanjay and I will not have my baby without him being present" I argued.

"Sweatheart, yuh know mi always mek yuh have yuh ways nuh true?" Dad spoke and I slowly nod. "Good, di ooman Sanjay a link wid, mi nuh wah yuh nuh weh near har suh listen to weh wi a seh and move back ya fi a while" he said seriously

"Daddy mi nuh fraid a har enu" I laughed dryly. "Daddy wah really a gwaan?" I asked because this is really strange

"Tell har" Mommy said staring at Dad and he let out a loud sigh.

"Siddung back" He told me and I obliged.

🎶Tears are words only God understand they say my brother things will get better.. I am still here in the place you've left, never to return, heaven is on reserve.. I wanna rest in peace, rest in peace, goodbye fly high RIP, rest in peace...🎶

Tears continuously stream down my face as I skip through the tiktok video that Stacy created with Jamar's video's and pictures. It feels so surreal to know that he is no longer among the living but is on the cold ice preparing to be burry under the earth this coming Saturday.

🎶Yo, Zum
I've dreamed about my own death
Which makes me appreciate life more
I've also had dreams about my own life
Which makes me appreciate death more
Gone away, yeah
Gone away, yeah, yeah, yeah🎶

It's had been two weeks since he have passed and I can't bring myself to be honest with our daughter on to the reasons for her father's absent from her life.

She have been questioning it and I have been avoiding it but how long can I do that for. It's like he have been showing up to her because for almost every night from then until now, she been crying for her father and saying he is looking sad and won't talk to her.
