I knew she’d protect us from whatever was happening, so I went straight for facts. If I gathered enough facts I could figure it out on my own. “Some friends of his from work.” “Uncle Jack?” I asked. Jack wasn’t an uncle but we called him that. He was my dad’s foreman in the roofing business. “No, honey. From the Army. His old work.” It was September 11, 2001, and the call he’d made was to his commanding officer in the Reserve. I’d figure that out later. And I’d learn that he’d done ROTC through college, then served with the Fifth Special Forces Group in Desert Storm. I’d learn that his shoulder injury had come from shrapnel embedded in his rotator cuff. I’d learn, just from watching him, from listening to him talk to his buddies, about Ranger School. Jump school. The Ranger Battalions. The Scroll. The Creed. That Rangers lead the way. But I didn’t know any of that then. I knew my dad as a roofer. A fisherman. A lover of Pearl Jam and Giants baseball. He was the guy who launched me over the waves on the beach, and who bench-pressed Anna because it made her giggle in a way that nothing else did. He was my mom’s best friend, with some additional elements like kissing that seemed pretty gross because, you know, I was six. But I learned something new about him that morning. I learned that when bad things happened, my dad stepped forward first. I learned he was a hero. A real one. And that I wanted to be like him”",

                        "text": "I'm your husband, she's my blessing (PT.75 of 100) If I'm not what you want then all you have to do is tell me, I told you how I felt but is there something you want to tell me? I looked in Mathews eyes and said I want you in my world, but honestly the truth is I am not your average girl. I'm really not eighteen and I have ran away from home, my mom and dad divorced and I just hate them in my bones. I'm sorry for the lies but I don't want you to be hurt, you're really loving me but I don't think that this will work. So drop me off right here and I will call Caramel, and thank you for the flowers and I love the way they smell. I grabbed the door handle and proceeded out the car, then Mathew said Monique i really love you in my heart. I really don't care if you are younger than I am, I need you in my life and as a part of who I am. And then I looked at Mathew deeply thinking to myself, JUST PLEASE LET ME LEAVE BUT MY HEART BEGAN TO MELT!! Then Mathew came around and said Monique it can work, as long as we're not sexual then we can make it work. See age is just a number and I'm sure you are mature, I want what's in your heart and my intentions are so pure. I turned around from Mathew and I tried to wallk way, he grabbed me by my arm and said Monique you gotta stay. I snatched my hand and ran while all the tissue in my bra, had started falling out but I don't think nobody saw. My skirt was blowing hard because the wind was picking up, my panties were uncomfortable and I couldn't keep it tucked. I felt it hanging down and that's reality in my face, as long as I'm a boy then love will never come my way. I swear I hate my life and don't nobody understand, that I was born this way and I don't want to be a man!! 9:14Am. Mathew gets a phone call. And this is what happened. . Well dad she was coming but I do no know what happened, I wanted you to meet her but she had a weird reaction. But I am on my way because that bar b que is calling, tell mama that I miss her and im praying about my calling. 9 :19Am. Caramel Nights leaves her father's church parking lot in a hurry. 9:21Am. Mia the assistant spots Monique walking down a dead end street. 9:22Am. Mathew attempts to call Monique one more time in hopes she will change her mind and come with him. 9:25Am. Mia and Caramel Nights speak on the phone about the situation. And this is what Mia is saying. . Listen Caramel she is messing up our business, she's dealing with a client and its not about business. She's at a dead end and I'm bout to break her off, she probably is a snitch trying to sell us all out. Then Caramel said look let me handle her myself, I'm ten minutes away and I will deal with her myself. Then Mia said ok but pulled a gun out of her purse, she clearly hates Monique and wants to wipe her off the earth. See Mia has a plan to take over everything, and Caramel is blind due to Mia's loyalty. So Mia hung the phone up and stepped of her Denali, she has a gucci bag and prada all over her body. She looks like a model but she's really bad news, she's walking down the street whispering Monique where are you? Then Mia heard a noise by a dumpster on the street, she saw a shadow moving and then noticed Monique's feet. So Mia rose the gun and then Monique said please don't, but Mia began to laugh and said you think that I don't know. That you're a damn man and you deserve to die for this, I hate gay people and Caramel is on the list. Then Mia reached down and ripped the clothes off monique's back, she put the gun up to her and said me killing you is a fact. Monique just closed her eyes and felt the barrel on her chest, then Mia pulled the trigger and Tara's son was. . . - I'm your husband, she's my blessing. *If Monique is dead then how will it affect Tara? *Did Mia really say she hates gay people?? *In your opinion is it ok to live life as a woman if you were born a man? *If Valencia wasn't sedated do you think she would have had this vision early enough to save monique? *What does Mia mean by Caramel is on the list? *Isn't Mathew a really nice person? *Wouldn't it be nice if Mathew showed up to save Monique? *Who's ready for PT.76 I'm your husband, she's my blessing (PT.76 coming soon) Original poetic story by author KidHolliday Marigny Please share this story!!",
