It was nine o'clock at night when Riley got into the house because he had to run a couple of errands for Granddad. When he entered the house, he was smacked in the head with a newspaper.

"Damn Granddad! What did I do this time?" he asked his granddad with all sincerity. It was dark in the house with candles lit everywhere. There was a big dinner on the table and a woman in her late 50s sitting in a chair. She looked pretty decent to be at that age. She barely had any wrinkles in her face and she was not really thin or even looked sick.

Mary Bishoff was a 54 year old woman who had natural emerald eyes. She was mixed with black and white. Her hair was a funny color like Jazmine, but it wasn't quite as poufy. She was not very tall but you could tell that she was a fashionista. She was Granddad's date that he was so excited to see.

"Boy, you took so long to get here. Me and Mary-Boo was waiting all night to get some dang orange juice! I'm not gonna be around too much more longer, so you want your ole granddaddy to die without his Vitamin c? What the hell is wrong with you?"

"First off, I only been gone 20 minutes and I have a very good explanation for that. Secondly, Nigga you been sayin that since we was kids. You aint goin nowhere no time soon so stop talking like that. And may I ask who this woman is? Is this the one you met?"

"Yes it is Mr. Nosey. You need to explain to me what happened now."

"I would but you gotta bit-…"

"Say that word about my Mary-Boo and I will beat yo ass with my belt!"

"Ugh! I will tell you when she leaves okay. It's private."

"I suppose. But you didn't even speak to her."

Riley turned to the woman was sipping water properly at their dinner table. He looked at her up and down as she patiently waited for a response. "Hello ma'am. Are you crazy, a killer, or do you have psychological problems?" Granddad stood there with his mouth agape. He couldn't believe that he had really just asked her that.

"You're very funny young man. I will say this though, just because your Granddad has met horrible women in his day, that doesn't mean that every woman is the same. Sure your Granddad has met some psychotic females in his walk of life, but I'm sure he's made the right choice this time. I will excuse you only because of that, but next time don't judge a book based on its table of contents. Read it first, then you can critique."

Riley stood there and his head went from looking at her to looking to the floor. He actually felt bad for almost calling her an ugly word earlier. Deep down, he knew that she was right. He then went into the living room and flickered through the channels on TV.

Betty and Granddad resumed eating their meal. After an hour of Granddad's horrible jokes and Mary's sweet laughter, she told him that she had to go. As much as he wanted her to stay, he told her goodbye and offered to walk her to her car. Granddad hadn't felt that good in a long time and Riley could see that. He was actually happy that his Granddad met a woman like Mary.

"Now what was so important that happened that you couldn't tell me when she was here?" Granddad asked Riley in a serious tone as he closed the door behind him.

"While you was tryna bitch on me, I was at the hospital with Jazmine and Huey."

"At the hospital? For what?"

"Tom got AIDS Granddad."

"What? O no no no! How did this happen? I mean I knew Sarah was a hoe but I didn't even know that she was that big of a hoe."

"I know Granddad. I'm shocked man. He looks so unrecognizable. If you want to go see him tomorrow I'll take you to see him."

"Thanks Riley. I would appreciate it."

At the hospital

It was late at night in the Dubois room. Everyone was asleep- except Jazmine. She had crept out of the room and sat in the rain. It was actually pouring down rain outside and she was standing in it. She hoped that Huey hadn't found her because in her mind, she already looked ugly enough so she didn't want him seeing her any worse than she already looked. She had forgotten to wash off her eyeliner earlier that day, so you could see all the black smeared on her face. She was crying so hard. She hadn't cried like this in a long time.

She had stopped being so sensitive one day when Huey had told her that she cried so much. She got tired of being pushed around by him until one day she stepped up to him and she stopped showing all of her emotions around people. That's why this night she used to her advantage to get all her crying out so she wouldn't have to do it in front of Huey and her father.

Huey was tossing and turning in his sleep as he dreamed about the horrible things. He was dreaming about some terrible things that had happened in his family:

Huey, what's wrong with me I'm bleeding and I can't stop!

Jazmine please stay with me don't do this.

I don't think I can hold on much longer, I think he's coming out!

That's crazy talk, he's not due to another three months from now.

Oww! It hurts so bad I don't think I can…. I can…

O no she's dead and the baby has come out of her. He's so tiny and he's not breathing. What am I gonna do? What the hell is going on! I'm going crazy!

Huey, no matter how many times I've called you a bitch ass nigga I'm sorry man. I love you man, no homo. Yes I still say that even though I'm dying.

Don't say that bro you're gonna be fine.

Na man it's my time to go. I know you see that angel coming for me. Her smile is so pretty. Goodbye Huey.

Riley! Come back man! I'm sorry for arguing with you. Wake up! Wake up!

Shit. Now my bro is dead too. I'm scared Jesus I don't know what to do. Jazmine and Riley are gone!

Huey awakened from his nightmare and saw that Jazmine was not in the spot where she was when they prepared to sleep. He got up and used the bathroom. He then put on some shoes and checked the lobby. She wasn't there. He went back up to the floor they were on. She wasn't there. He then went back to the lobby and looked outside. He thought he saw her, but he went outside just to make sure.

When he got out there, he stayed a short distance away from her before realizing who she was. He heard her loud sobs and cries. He then walked up to her without startling her. She hurriedly wiped her eyes and face and then turned to him.

"Huey, why are you out here?"

"I should be asking you the same thing. Getting the flu in the rain is not a good way to relieve stress. Come inside Jazmine. Please."

"Okay."

He took her by the hand and led her inside. He told her to get dried up from all the rain and then he would talk to her.

When she did this, he got on the phone with Riley to make sure he was okay. Surprisingly to him, Riley was up. He talked to him for a while to make sure he was okay. Riley told him about the whole Granddad situation and Huey apologized for being a jerk earlier at the hospital. As they hung up the phone, Jazmine came out of the bathroom, her face glowing from all of her crying. He never thought she looked more beautiful. Jazmine looked at him with wide watery eyes, ran upon his shoulder and cried.

"It's okay Jazmine, let it out. It's okay." Huey said to her as they cuddled there together. She was lying on top of him in fetal position and he cuffed his arms around her like a newborn baby. She kept sobbing into his shirt and he didn't mind at all.

"Jazmine?"

"Yes Huey?"

Both of them were very sleepy. Huey didn't know why he was letting this come out, but it did. He had no control.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"But I love you more than you think."

Jazmine wanted him to expound on that statement, but both of them fell asleep. She decided she would ask him first thing in the morning.
