Chapter 80: Words Hurt

Standing in front of the trio of Malachi, Aisha, and Bianca, was a woman that two of them never expected to see again.

Aisha immediately recognized what was happening, and she began trying to put out a fire before it could spread. "Mal, that's not-"

"Mom...?"

She was a woman with beautiful brown skin and a head of dark curly hair with blonde ends. 

Just like Aubrey, she had kind yet mischievous amber eyes and an inviting smile. 

She wore dark black jeans and her favorite shirt that Malachi hated due to the cringey words written on the front. 

'Mom. Boss. Forever.' 

It was a shirt that he never expected to see again.

Because she had been wearing it on the day she died. 

"My little man is all grown up... I can't tell you how happy that makes me. I wish that your father and I had gotten to see you grow with our own eyes."
