Chapter 21
LaMaya
I knew it was an accident…
I was there…
I saw with my own eyes…
He didn’t mean to…
But he did…

I stood outside the door of my son’s room in the hospital. They were supposedly working on him but I knew what the outcome of this situation would be.
I would be the one hurt once again.
Sooner than I thought a doctor came out the room.
“…He didn’t make it…shaken baby syndrome…”
Those were the only words I heard and I just stared into outer space. Dre was sitting next to me and I just knew he was hurting worse than I was because he did it, I just don’t understand.
Dre was playing with Nathaniel and he was shaking him but I didn’t think that he was hurting him because he was laughing at first…
I don’t want to think about that shit.
My son is dead!
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up to see Zoey and Ezra. I looked away and just stared.
“It’s going to be alright.” Zoey said wrapping her arms around me.
We both knew that was a lie. She looked as if she had been crying for days and I still haven’t dropped a tear for some reason.
It’s not that I don’t want to, I guess it just haven’t got through my mind yet. I love him though.
I don’t believe he’s gone just like that!
He can’t be!
