Jamari's POV

Me and Anthony were walking to the park when I swear I saw Samantha. No, it couldn't be her, she died giving birth to Anthony. I shook off the thought then brought Anthony to the slide. When I turned around I saw her again, now I was sure it was her and i wasn't losing my mind. I picked up Anthony then walked over to "Samantha"

Me: Samantha?

Samantha: Jamari?

And there it was, the woman I thought was dead this whole time was standing right in front of me.

Jamari: I thought you were dead

Samantha: I can explain

Jamari: what happened at the hospital?, the nurse told me you died
