the graveside service she and Mark walked to their mother's grave and knelt as Emily prayed. When the prayer was over she began to talk to her mother.
“Momma, our friend Juan died and is in heaven with you now. His momma is feeling really sad. I told her I would talk to you about watching over him. He was nice, momma. He helped us before we met Delbert and Jennifer. Could you please watch over him and take care of him for her? I know she would be thankful.”
Emily waited for a few minutes before finishing. ”Momma, I miss you. I wish you were here. You would like our new parents. They are good people. They promised to bring us here any time we want to talk to you. We need to go now. I will tell Juan's momma you will take care of him, for her. I love you. Bye, momma. We'll be back soon.”
As she started to get up Mark pulled her hand. ”Can I talk to momma for a few minutes?”
“I think momma would like to hear from you.”
“Momma, this is Mark. How are you? I love you. And I miss you a lot. I wish you were here. Our new parents are really good to us. I won't ever forget you, momma. I love you. Bye.”
They placed some flowers on her grave and walked to the car. “We don’t need to worry about Juan. Momma is going to watch over him,” said Mark.
Delbert picked him up and placed him on his shoulders. “We weren’t worried son. We knew she would take care of him.”
Emily said, “I’ll be right back.” She walked to Juan’s grave where his mother was still seated, crying. She placed her hand gently on her shoulder. Mrs. Sanchez looked up and Emily said, “My momma is going to take care of Juan in heaven. You don’t need to worry about him anymore because momma will take good care of him for you.”
“Bless you child. Thank your momma for me the next time you talk to her. And thank you so much. Juan was very lucky to have you as a friend,” said Mrs. Sanchez as she hugged Emily, tears flowing down her face. “Please, come visit me sometime. I’d like to talk with you about Juan.”
“I will, I promise.” She hugged Mrs. Sanchez again and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Then she walked back to the car and got in the back seat with Jennifer.
“Are you alright?” asked Jennifer.
“Yes. I’m okay. Let’s go home.”
