Conclusion…
A couple of weeks later, Cynthia came home to share some very shocking news with her cousin.
"Dontrell! I don't know how to say this, but I've found out that Ronesha is my sister!!!", Cynthia stated with a look of disbelief on her face after finding him in the kitchen. She had gotten in touch with the relative that had gave the news to her parents a few years back.
"What?!!!", he shouted with a look of shock on his face.
"Yeah.", she replied as tears began to fall down her face. "Here's the proof right here." She pushed all of the evidence to him across the kitchen table where he was preparing dinner for them.
The look of disbelief on his face sealed the deal. "Oh isht!", he whispered.
"I guess that would explain why we look so much alike. How am I gonna break this news to her?", Cynthia sighed while wiping at her tears.
"I'll go with you ova to her place so I can be the support that you two will need.", he stated with a nod of his head. "C'mon! Let's go on now!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ronesha was sitting in the den listening to some music while reading a novel she had picked up earlier in the evening. Just as she was about to get more comfortable, her doorbell rang. She knew that it couldn't be Mark because he and the guys were hanging out around town.
"Dontrell...Cynthia? Hey, w'sup! Come on in.", she smiled as she closed the door behind them after they stepped inside.
"Ummmmm...we can't stay long, but I came ova to share some news with you.", Cynthia stated while trying to keep from crying.
"What's wrong?", Ronesha asked as an anxious look came over her face. Dontrell walked in between the both of them and held their hands. Ronesha didn't like the look on his face.
When Cynthia didn't answer right away, Ronesha asked him what was going on.
"It'd be betta if she told you, Nesha.", he almost whispered.
"Well...what?!", she asked as she looked at Cynthia again.
"Nesha, I found out today that we're sisters.", Cynthia replied.
"No!!! That's not true! My momma and the baby she was carryin' died along with my father! Why are you playin' this sick joke on me?!!!" Ronesha snatched her hand away from Dontrell’s and ran down the hall to the bathroom, slamming and locking the door. Dontrell ran down the hall behind her and pounded on the door several times.
"Nesha! I know this is hurtin' you right now, but it's true! Cynthia showed me the proof a lil’ while ago.", he stated.
"There's no proof! Don’t say that!!!", Ronesha cried as she sat on the floor in the corner of the bathroom. She pulled her knees up to her chest and buried her head down in her lap while crying.
"Come out so we can talk about this, rationally.", he pleaded while turning the knob a few times. He waved his hand at Cynthia for her to join him at the door.
"Nesha, I wouldn't lie to you about somethin' like this.", Cynthia stated. She proceeded to take the papers out of her purse with the proof and slid it under the door for Ronesha to look at.
At first she stared at the blue and white papers that were neatly folded up in front of her feet. Hesitantly, Ronesha leaned forward and reached over to pick the papers up with shaky hands. Sure enough, the proof was right there in her face.
"I need to be alone for a while.", she whispered when she opened the door. She quickly walked down the hall and grabbed her jacket.
"Where are you goin'?", Dontrell asked as he and Cynthia closed and locked her door and followed her out to her car. However, she didn't answer them. She sped out of her driveway and up the street.
"I need to call Mark to see if he can help us find out where she's goin'.", Cynthia stated as she and Dontrell climbed in his car to leave. For once Mark answered his phone. Cynthia told him about everything that had happened and he told her that he was going to get in touch with Tamir and Lashonda so they could help all of them in finding where Ronesha was headed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After reaching her parents' gravesites, Ronesha sat in her car for a few minutes while silently crying and listening to 2Pac's "So Many Tears" that was in her CD player. In the meantime, it began to pour down rain, which she didn't even notice as she sat back in her seat while looking out at nothing through her windshield. All she knew was that once again, she had experienced a pain and hurt in her heart so bad that she didn't know how she would go on. When she was tired of listening to her radio, she climbed out of her car and slowly walked over to her parents' graves where she knelt down on her knees in between the two of them. Anger began to take over and she immediately started screaming while looking up at the sky as the downpour of rain pelted her face.
"God, why do these things continuously happen to me?! First you took my parents' away, then my friend, and Aunt Maylene. And then I had to suffer through losin' Mark for a while and now I find out that after all of these years, I have been told one lie after another about my family! I could've had my sister here with me when I was goin' through all these things, but instead I was alone!!! Why would you do somethin' like this to me?!!!" She then sat in between her parents’ tombstones. She rested her back up against the side of her mother’s while her feet rested on the side of her father’s. She proceeded to fold her arms and hold her head downward as she began to weep like there was no tomorrow.
Seconds later, Tamir's SUV followed by Mark's and Dontrell's rides pulled up behind her car that was parked back at the main driveway of the graveyard. "There she is!", Dontrell stated as they all ran over to her. However, Tamir and Lashonda were the first ones to reach her.
Holding her umbrella over Ronesha's head, Lashonda took her hand and slowly pulled her up to her feet before hugging her. "C'mon, it's gonna be okay.", she whispered as she and Tamir helped her walk away.
However, when Ronesha saw Cynthia, she ran over to her and they hugged and held onto each other for dear life while crying. "C'mere for a sec...I have some special people for you to meet.", Ronesha smiled after wiping away her tears. Tamir handed her his umbrella while he and Lashonda shared hers. Ronesha proceeded to take Cynthia by the hand to lead her back over to their parents’ graves.
"Ma, Daddy? This is your baby daughter, Cynthia. Isn't she juss as beautiful as your first-born?" She and Cynthia both began to laugh. "I'm sorry that you guys weren't here to meet her in your physical forms, but I thank you both for bein' her guardian angels. I know you two are the reason why she's in my life now. And tell God that I'm sorry for everything I said to him. I know I wasn't alone because all three of you were with me all the time."
"Look, we can't have our suga meltin' out here in this rain!", Dontrell chuckled as he came walking up behind the two of them. After he hugged them, Ronesha saw Mark standing behind him.
Without saying a word, she ran over to him and they proceeded to hug each other tightly.
"Well, let's go, before we all catch double pneumonia!", Cynthia chuckled as they headed back to their rides.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
