You probably all hate me now that I killed Jo off . . . but I'm telling you it's all part of how I wanted to end this story!! And no, the story's not over . . . yet . . . we still have a few chapters left to go . . .
Disclaimer: I don't own, I RENT. Except my characters and storyline! Those are mine!!
Funeral
Everyone was there . . . Amber, Ella Lena, Kaila, Rose, Roger, Mimi, Benny, Collins, Maureen, Joanne, Mark and Emma were all there . . . Mourning the loss of Jo. Everyone except Mark, Emma, Rose and Benny cried. Everyone was sad.
"Jo was my best friend," Amber said at the front of the chapel. "She was everyone's friend . . . she made friends easily. I remember when I first met Jo . . . We were shopping at Pier 39 in San Fran and . . . I ran in to her . . . literally. We fell to the ground and I apologized and introduced myself and my friends and she was taken into our little group and home . . . She was always so loving and caring even though she couldn't cook anything besides Ramen . . . You were always there, Baby Girl . . . But it wasn't until you were gone that we needed you the most . . ."
"Then there was this time when we had a sleepover party, girls only . . . and we were playing 'I Never' . . . well, she'd never had a boyfriend so Maureen dared her to tell Mark how she felt about him within a year . . ." Mimi said. Mark's eyes got wide, "Yes Mark, this is true." She giggled, "And Jo accepted the dare . . . she was being gutsy . . . but it wasn't until more than a year later that she told him . . . But at least she told him, huh? Anyway, she used to have these bursts of energy that just made her loveable . . . and . . . we'll never forget that about her . . ." Mimi stepped down and Collins went up.
"God . . . what to say about Jo . . . well, she had spunk . . . she was outgoing, fun, easy to get along with . . . she loved her friends . . . god, did she love her friends . . . But she especially loved Mark . . . he was hers from the beginning . . . sure, Mark had other girlfriends and boyfriends and sure, Jo had bootie calls but those two were made for each other . . . she always wanted to be there for everyone . . . and now she is . . ." Collins smiled sadly and left the front of the chapel.
"The mind churns . . .
The heart yearns . . .
The tears dry . . .
Without you . . .
Life goes on . . .
But I'm gone . . .
'Cause I die . . .
Without you . . ."
Sad, I know. But I had to put this in here . . . you're all going to hate me even more next chapter! I'm not saying anything else . . . PLEASE REVIEW!!!! :D
