i started bawling before i even knew for sure it happened… i could tell by my aunt’s crying voice when she asked for my mom on the phone and then my mom’s gasp “he’s dead?” and i was already rolling on the floor crying.

what really pissed me off was all my uncles telling me i had to stop crying and be the man in the house. i wanted to punch them all in their dicks.

only time helps in this type of situation.
