Mimi sat on their tattered couch. She was trying to sort things out but just could not believe her sister was gone. Her sister was the only one who knew who Mimi truly was. Anna knew all her secrets and Mimi knew all of hers, exept for the one that she had AIDS and that she had a kid. How could her own sister keep something so big from her? "Mimi, you haven't said anything in awhile. Are you okay?" Roger plopped down on the couch with her.He looked deeply concerned.
"I just found out my sister died, not only that but I found out that she just died in a heroin overdose. And in addition to that, I found out that I had a niece all in a two day period. How do you think I feel, Roger?" Mimi muttered. Roger was shocked at this response, he was expecting her to start cryiong or something. But after last night at the life café, she had not shed a single tear. Roger was cautious about what he said next. "I know what its like to loose someone important to you, just try to move forward."
" I don't think im ready for that." At that moment Haydrian walked out of her bedroom.
:well at least you didn't loose your mother." Roger and Mimi made room so Haydrian could sit on the couch. Mimi put her hands on her head, letting her long hair cover her face. "I realy don't know how were gonna get through this"
"joanne said shed get us a hearing so we can adopt her babe, things will be just fine." Roger tried all he could to calm her down.
" She did talk about you, Mimi. Mama did talk about you and your Mama and Papi. She wished she could see you again." Mimi could not take it anymore. "Babe, wher are you going?"
"out." Mimi answered coldly as she walke out onto the fire escape.
