A Child Called “Adelina”
We all have at least one person in our life the we love. We all have that one person that means the world to us. In all lives, there is death. You never know when death is coming, it could be any second, any minute, any day, any month, or any year. It’s never known when someone will die. It’s a tragedy when someone you love does, especially when you witness it. It is the most painful thing to experience. It’s one thing to hear the news but to be around when it happens. It’s like you’re heart just shatters into billions and billions of pieces.
The day of November 25, 2013, in the night, I had to witness something horrific that scared me for life. Something that …show more content…
Most of them had the munchies so they all went quickly to the food, it was like they haven’t eaten in days! The people I was surrounded by was basically my other family. We all considered each other family. The discussed how this is their early Thanksgiving, although it wasn’t really a actual Thanksgiving meal. Most of the people I was with weren’t really close with their family, some didn’t even have a family. It was just them, they considered friends as family. We all began to eat, and have a conversation in the living room, the table was filled with the food so we weren’t able to eat there, plus it only had six chairs. There was much more than six people there. As we sat there, I enjoyed the moment, thinking this, this, is my …show more content…
Most of us stayed because it wasn’t really that late. My mom called me that evening telling me to make sure I’m home by 12, since I was with my brothers she gave me more time to be out. Although I was only 12 at the time I was treated as if I was an adult by my second family, I think that’s what I liked most about my second family. My brother Alex told me to get extra plates of food. We always got extra food so when we got home if we were hungry we would eat that food instead of having to cook. I started getting the plates and putting food on them for us, the I heard my brothers discussing “someone ‘finessed’ them”. I giggled because I thought to myself “ these dummies got played”. They was furious though, they hated if someone played with there money. Not knowing who it was my brother Booboo left, saying “ I don’t trust y’all right now.” It was nothing new though, he always got mad like that when it came to money, but all would be forgiven the next day. He never held a grudge. Ad came in the kitchen telling me to hurry up because he’s tired and wants to leave. I argued saying “ don’t rush me”. He just laughed and walked out. I started talking to one of the girlfriends, Christina. She was telling me about how she wants to have another kid with Drew. Then she kept going on and on about how much she loves him. I wasn’t really interested and didn’t really care so I changed the subject asking how what’s her family going to do
