Sometimes we gotta forgive. Two wrongs can't make a right, Remember. As much as i despise nelly for her past act against her bestie, i would never wish her death. With the little time she have on earth, she deserve happiness and love. Dieing in the bosom of her loved ones could just be all she needs in life. Lets put away our vindictive cap and try to perceive life from another perspective.
Everything do have a end tho, moreover they say ''keep your friends close and enemies closer''.
That reminds me, you gotta see this movies:
*A walk to remember
&
*the fault in our stars

thank me l8ta cool

chai! Make i run iron before this phcn dudes off am. angry
lol yeaaa........... Thats right. Dunno why people wish her death. Me am wishing her quick recovery. We do not even have light again for my area. Una still dey lucky o.

My step became slow, i saw two women trying to hold Nelly's mom, i saw the guy nelly was betrothed to and i saw nelly's dad sitted in a chair in the reception, two men were patting him on the shoulder. Without been told, i knew nelly was gone, far away from this world, far away from where i could see her again, far away from everybody that loved her. My mind went blank as tears started running down my cheek. I felt dizzy and I leaned on the wall of the reception, something struck my heart and i felt a great pain. I felt like a part of me had left me, i felt like i had lost something very important to me. I allowed the tears roll freely down my cheek as i remembered all about nelly. She came to me like a rushing wind and she left me like a burning fire. She burnt a part of me down and went with the ashes. I wept like a baby as the memories of Nelly flashed through my brain. It was a great loss, i did not want to cry but i ended up weeping.
"Nelly!" i heard someone scream her name, i looked up and it saw Nelly mom. I could see the state of pain she was and i could feel her loss. Less than 48hours ago, she was a happy woman, but the woman that stood infront of me then was a sad mother. Nelly's mom rushed at me and gripped my arm, she looked up at me and said "Nelly, is this you? Is this you my baby? Are you back to me? I knew you will never leave me, the doctor said you were dead but i never believed him. I knew you will come back to me my child. Promise me you will never leave again, i need you to promise me you will never make me cry, promise me Nel, i need you to promise me" she shouted and brooke down in tears again. I was so confuse on what to do. "How will i console this mother that just lost her only fruit? How will her tell her i am not the daughter she lost when she choose to ignore the truth? How will I tell her that Nelly will never come back to her? How will i tell her that she should weep for her child and give her a final respect?" all this thought ran through my mind and i could not stop my tears. If only tears could wake the dead, nelly would have woken up. I knelt on the floor beside Nelly's mom and took her into my arms. I ran my hand over her hair and said "Mom, don't be sad. I am here for you"
My words comforted her a bit and she stopped to weep. The other women around came to her and took her away.
I stood up and went to Nelly's dad. He was stronger than his wife and he was quiet but lost in thought. I offered my condolence and he said "Thank you my daughter" i could feel he was trying to find a daughter in me. I moved closer to him and hugged him before going in search of Jordan.

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
I met Jordan in a corner of the hospital, the place was quiet and i could tell he was trying to avoid the public. I tapped him on he shoulder and he raised his head. His eyes were blood red and for the first time in my life, i saw Jordan cry. I took him into my arms and he wept like a child, calling nelly's name every five minutes in the middle of his tears. I consoled Jordan and told him to be strong, he only noded without uttering a word.
We heard wailing in the hospital and we rushed inside. We met Nelly's mom weeping and screaming her child's name on top of her voice. Nelly's body was been discharged and was been taken to the burial ground for a final burial. I understood how Mrs. Stanley must have felt. She rushed to the front of the ambulance and stood there, stopping the driver from moving the car. All she kept shouting was "My child is not dead, give her to me!". Her reaction made me remember my mom's death and i could compare the pain she was feeling with the pain i felt when my mom died. Mrs. Stanley was practically dragged away from the ambulance and she was taken to her car.
Jordan could not drive,so i did the drive to the burial ground. Nelly's mom was stopped from witnessing the burial of her child and Jordan was also too fragile to see Nelly been lowered to mother earth but i withnessed everything.I felt it was necessary to stand by Mr. Stanley like a daughter,i held his hand throughout the final right.

Dust they say will always be dust.Nelly was lowered six feets below the ground and just like a bad dream, she was gone and never to come back.I hid my face in my face towel and wept for my belove friend.Tho we had our differences she was one in a million.Again i was happy i forgave her and i spent alittle time with her before she finally died.
After the burial i could not witness all the weeping again, so i took Jordan home and went home as well.
Immediately i got home, i went into Mi mom's arm and said "She is dead, my look alike is no more" she took me into her arms and allowed me to cry. I cried for a long time and when i had no strength to cry no more i went into my room. Dad and mom also went to offer their condolences to the stanleys.
I called Khole and brooke the news to her.
IT WAS A BAD DAY

**********************
It was a week after Nelly's death but it still felt like yesterday. I had resumed work but i was not active. Daily from work, i would go to the stanleys to console nelly's mom. My presence always console her. She would ask me to sit on her lap and tell me things about nelly, sometimes she would cry and sometimes she would laugh, it all depend on her mood. I made myself available to the stanleys the more since that was the least i could do for them.
After the stanley's residence, i would go and check on Jordan occasionally but whenever i leave the stanleys lately i would place a call through to Jordan. I tried to be strong, though i was weak inside. I wanted to be there for everybody.

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
Work was becoming more hectic. The overhead bridge my crew and i presented report on months ago was completed and the president was invited to commission the bridge. My crew and I were to cover the event for our television station in two days time. I had alot at hand, my work needed me, the stanleys needed me and Jordan needed me the most.
I was bussy checking the materials we would be needing for the event when the my phone started to ring. The caller I.D was "Maami" that was what i saved Jordan's mom number with. I hurriedly excused myself and accepted the call. I answered the call and said "Hello". "My dear, where are you? I do not know what is wrong with Jordan, he has been drinking and playing sorrowful music indoor since day break. He is taking nelly's death too hard on himself and i have tried to talk to him but he would'nt listen. The thing is There is somewhere i have to be now, i do not know who else to call apart from you. Please my daughter,come over and look after him" Jordan's mom said. I was scared of what Jordan might do to himself. I told his mom i would be there in ten minutes and i rushed back to the office. I took permission from Mr.larry who was my department head and i rushed to Jordan's house.

**********************
I met Jordan's mom fully dressed in the living room. She was happy to see me,she hugged me and told me how sad Jordan had been ever since nelly died, she pleaded with me to take care of her child and i promised her to do my best. Jordan's mom left and i head to his room.

WHY ARE YOU LEAVING SO SOON?
IS THERE SOMEWHERE ELSE
BETTER FOR YOU?

WHAT IS LOVE, IF YOU ARE NOT HERE WITH ME?
WHAT IS LOVE, IF IT'S NOT
GUARANTEED?
WHAT IS LOVE, IF IT'S JUST
UPS AND LEAVES?

REALLY SURE?
WHAT IS LOVE?

That was the song Jordan was playing loudly in his room.The lyrics of the song hit me and a tear rolled down my cheek as i remembered my lost as well.I cleaned my eyes and composed myself. "I have to be strong, to console Jordan" i said to myself.
I opened the door and entered into his room.Jordan was sitted on the floor, backing the door and he had a bottle of alcoholic drink in his hand.I could not help but feel pity for Jordan, he must have been very close with Nelly for the past six years and now, she is gone.
I tried to take the bottle from Jordan's hand from behind but he tightened his grip on the bottle and he said "Mom go away, i will be fine".I shook my head and said "Its me".Jordan turned back and looked at me, he released the bottle and stoodup. He laid on his bed and faced the wall.I paused the music player and i went to Jordan in bed.I touched him and said "Why are you doing this to yourself? You ought to be strong for her, you are breaking my heart this way. Please pull yourself together Jordan! Be strong for me! For nelly and even for the parent she left behind".
He faced the ceiling, cleared his throat and said "TELL MYSELF I WOULD'NT CRY
WHEN YOU ARE GONE
BUT I KNOW ITS EASIER SAID
THAN DONE.
LOOKED AT ME, LOOK AT ME
CHOKED UP NOW
TRY TO TELL YOU BUT IT
WON'T COME OUT.
WHAT IS LOVE IF YOU ARE
NOT HERE WITH ME?
WHAT IS LOVE IF IT'S NOT GUARANTEED?
WHAT IS LOVE IF IT'S JUST
UPS AND LEAVES?
WHAT IS LOVR IF YOU'RE NOT
HERE NO MORE?
WHAT IS LOVE IF YOU ARE
NOT REALLY SURE?
WHAT IS LOVE?
WHAT IS LOVE??"

Jordan sang again and cried.I was confused on what to do.I buried my face in my palms and cried. Jordan sat properly on bed and shouted "She was closer to me than anything! She was like a sister! A blood sister.Why are you all complaining because I am mourning my lost?Can't i just mourn her for a year? I would'nt mind mourning her for the rest of my life because she was there for me through thick and thin! I promised to make her happy but i could not fulfil my promise.I did nothing for her but she did everything for me. Everything!"
i closed my eyes and cried, i was l loosing him to nelly, even in death.
