Chapter Thirteen

Shepard

It’s been a hard couple months. Hellish, even. My father died. Heart attack. Didn’t even see it coming. I’d taken my family over to my parents’ place for Sunday lunch. Mom had cooked and wanted Lynette and I to go over with the kids. That included Willow, Jett, Tank, and Hammer. She’s got a soft spot for the two of them, especially since they don’t have any other family.

Max and VJ were in the garden with Mom, Lynette, and Willow. The rest of us were inside drinking beer and talking about football. Something we never really did much of before. Apollo kept rubbing the top of his right arm, looking at me the whole time. I knew something was wrong the second he told me to take care of my mother, to make sure she was safe, and not to stand in her way if she ever found love again.

I narrowed my eyes at him, for a second there, I thought he was trying to tell me that my mother had been cheating on him. It didn’t make any sense to me because he’s always been the love of her life. Even when he left her for someone else, she never stopped loving him, and never did she stop hoping he’d come back to her. When he reached for me, my hand in his as he tugged me towards him where he sat on his large couch, I knew, fuck, I just knew! I sat down beside him, and he grabbed me. He hugged me so damn hard and told me how proud of me he was, how much he loved me, that I was his pride and joy. Then he died right there in my arms. I couldn’t stop shaking him and begging him to wake up.

Wasn’t ’til Jett grabbed my shoulder and squeezed that I realized it was too late.

My mom came running in, screaming his name. ‘Lenny!’ She screamed as she dropped to her knees beside him, pulling him away from me and into her arms. ‘Lenny, don't leave me! Please,’ She kissed his head over and over again while rocking him back and forth. ‘I love you so much. Oh, Lenny!’

I'll never fuckin’ forget that awful moment for as long as I live. I’ll always remember how both Lynette and Willow leaned down and kissed his head, sobbing their eyes out and telling him they loved him. I’ll never forget how Jett did this same before leaving the room, a sobbing Max in his arms.

But do you know what will stay in my mind and never, ever leave it?

They say things like this, the pain of losing a loved one fades from your mind with time. You’ll never forget, but it’ll get easier.

However, the thing that won’t is the way VJ reacted to Apollo’s death.

I noticed him out of the corner of my eye. I thought he’d gone with Jett. Maybe he had and snuck back into the room, I don’t know. Dad was laid out on the couch while we waited for the authorities to come to take his body away.
