Brandon's p.o.v

Ode to Dawn, my deceased niece. I never knew she existed until a recent trip to Walmart. Brenda, Maisie, and I encountered a single white mother shopping with her biracial

fraternal twins. The situation affected Brenda so much that she ran out of the store crying. I followed closely behind her into the parking lot. Maisie finished our grocery

shopping. "Why are you crying?" concern, I begged my sister outside. "Kennedy had a twin sister named Dawn. Dawn died at birth. A damaged deformed skull cut her life short"

Brenda recounted through heavy intense sobs. I comforted Brenda until she found the strength to stand on her own two feet again.
