NICKI'S P.O.V

We all sit quietly in the church as the readings begin. Everyone in the congregation is dressed in black including me and Drake and Jeri and of course Trey, Jazzy's Father. I turn my eyes away from the person reading and look at the photos of Jazz beside the closed coffin. There are baby pictures, a picture of when she started kindergarten and the day she started 1st grade. I look past those photos and too the family ones. The one where we went to Disneyland when Jazzy loved princess jasmine to bits or the time the whole family went to the beach in Turks and Caicos

" Nic your turn" Drake whispers in my ear

I make sure I have my script then go up too the altar. I cant believe loads of people showed up. Even Birdman showed up and I know I havent been to the studio in ages caused of Jazzy. I fix the mike and speak

I speak slowly making sure I pronounce each word right. I make sure not to make my voice sound all cracky from the tears that are about to fall

 I carry Jeri on my hip as we take the long and sad walk down to where Jazzy is being buried. Drake takes my hand in his and squeezes it tight making me feel just a bit better. I dont plan on crying cause I know that if one single tear falls from my eyes it will send buckets from Jeri's. She hasnt spoken much since then and doesnt eat much either. I know how hard it is too loose one of the closest people in your lives and when they leave you have no one

As friends and family place items on Jazzy's coffin while I place a picture of me and her smiling and hugging each other before Jeri was born. I dont know what happened after that, we were never as close like that as much as I wanted us to be. After I place the bracelet she made for in 1st grade. It was a friendship bracelet that she promised me too keep forever. It was pink my favorite color. 

I step back and turn around putting my face in my hands. I have never experienced a sadder time in my life

Drake comes over and hugs me from the back. I turn and cry into his chest. Im so happy that I have him here by my side

" Nicki please dont cry" His whispers in my ear rubbing my back " Shes in a better place right now I promise you"

" Drake I just want her back, I just want to apologize" I cry

" You did and you were there for her" He says

" She died and I wasnt there to say any last words to her"

" That doesnt matter just as long as she is happy and so are you cause I talked to her and she loves you to the moon and back and has no bad feeling for you" He says

" How do you know"

He hands me a letter with Jazzy's writing on it

-Mommy-

I love you so much I dont really know what to say. You are the best mommy ever and always will be. Even though you didnt believe inside I know you really did. I just want to say that Drake is best for you and he loves you very much. Also make sure you carry on rapping cause thats what I love about you. You might think I havent forgiven you but I have cause I love you to the moon and back and to the moon again! you can give Jeri another sister to keep her happy as always. Make sure Jeri gets all my clothes and stuff cause I know she will take good care of them. Stay happy even though you miss me. Dont spend time crying over me cause theres no way Im gonna come back. I love you I love you I love you so much and it makes me cry thinking about how Im leaving you. But I will always be watching over you

-Jazzmyn-

I fold the note and put it in my purse and all of a sudden I feel so happy. I pick Jeri up and carry her on my hip while we all walk back. Drake puts his hand over my shoulder and I cuddle up to him. I know the future has much for me Drake and Jeri and for definite Jazzy will be looking over us
