Book Excerpts
I left on a Thursday after telling my father to “Fuck off!” Saturday my heart was ripped apart when I was told he died.
Wife-”Don’t stay with me for the kids! You can just leave if that’s the reason.”
Me-”Don’t you get it? You and the kids are a gift that cannot be replaced. The fact you birth my boy makes me love you unconditionally. Noone can compare. I will always be there for you even if you’re not with me mami.”
Talking to my son the night before sentencing- “My baby boy pop’s love you so much. You will grow up to be better than me. Papi might have to go away for awhile but I will be back soon. In the meantime you listen to mama. Be the best you can be in school, tee ball, and as a big brother. Can you do that for pops?”
Son starts to cry, “Where you going daddy? You are coming back aren’t you?”
Me kiss him on the forehead, “Papi will be right back.”
