It strikes Noon, birds chirping from afar, leaves crunching as mother and I walk down the street from an errand she had to take.
I've asked what it was but with one sentence she said "A new beginning".
My mother was always mysterious before, every time I ask something she always plays it out like a riddle or makes me work hard to figure out what she truly meant.
Her name is Jadia Witson, she was a beautiful woman indeed, her dark skin shimmered brightly when the sun touches her skin, her long frizzy hair was dark as night but yet flowed greatly in the softest wind, tall as the white clouds that hover above us and yet a very caring but mysterious mother.
She always overworks herself, working hard every day to provide for the needs of her child. I sometimes wondered as to why she does the thing she does, but it was always the same response I get, "Because I love and cherish you".
Walking down the street we came across the crossroad walk, hurridly I clicked on the silver button that notified the machines to allow us to walk across.
As we waited I began to notice that there weren't any cars in sight, looking left and right, soon I started to walk away from mama onto the street.
Without realizing there was a car speeding from afar, I couldn't hear the screams from my mother behind me.
But suddenly ,
The eyes that gave me a light of vision turned dark.
....
The noise my ears draw in to hear suddenly heard of nothing.
....
And the warmth my jacket gave me became useless as my body started to feel cold.
