Love, Life, and Jennifer
Impossible!

"He is the most dangerous hacker, and also the most sought after in the country..." Aunty sighed, and rubbed her face with both hands.

"Bobbed the State bank, and..." Aunt sniffling

My tears are flowing freely now... The sentence after sentence that came out of Aunt Margaret's mouth, was like a sword that was now pouring down on my heart!

I smothered my mouth, still can't believe it...

"Cooperate with the Black Mamba..." Aunt Margaret's cry broke, as she spoke the word Black Mamba.

Black Mamba's... Yeah!

Who does not know the Black Mamba!

They are a very feared mob in this country!

The group that almost all of its members were black men or women, and were famous for being very violent!

Ooohh God! How could Clarence possibly be involved with them!

Auntie immediately wiped her tears.

"Come on, we're going to the hospital now." Auntie.

************************

"Did his parents know about this?" I said to aunt.

"Yes, they are still being interrogated by the police." Aunty answered without looking at me.

"And aunt herself..."

Aunt smiling miris...

"They've interrogated me, before Clarence's parents."

"Then, what happens next?"

My aunt smiled, then looked at me.

"There's nothing to suspect, from an old widow like me." The answer.

"Bi, how did the police finally find Clarence?"

Aunty took a deep breath, before continuing her words.

"The police said, some time ago Clarence did some recklessness..."

"Who-you mean?"

"He made many suspicious transactions that were easily tracked by the police..."

"Suspicious transactions?"

"Yeah... Renting cars, apartments, etc., using the identity of the Black Mamba victims."

Instantly I was jerked!

I'm sure it was me!

Yeah! I am so sure!

Clarence lent me his identity several times!

Yaaa tuhaan!!!

Indirectly, I am the cause of all this!

My tears flowed freely...

Imagine, how much sacrifice for me, so great!

But...

"My sister, Shane was devastated to see her son have to be like this..."

I immediately hugged Aunt Margaret...

After arriving in front of the hospital, I was really surprised by the sightings of some police officers who were standing guard there.

They even stood guard all the way to Clarence's treatment room.

"Wait here, just a minute." Said aunt Margaret.

Aunty immediately walked towards a policeman standing guard right in front of the treatment room.

If I noticed, auntie seemed to be trying hard to convince the cop, until the end...

"Elle... Come here..." Aunt Margaret told me.

I'll approach her soon.

"Yes, bi?" I said.

"Look, only one man can come in, and this cop, he'll be with you." Said aunt Margaret.

"Well, you..." My speech.

Before I entered the room, a policeman was seen instructing the other police to take his place standing guard at the door of the room.

They asked a policewoman to check on me and search my luggage.

Once they felt that no one was worrying, they finally allowed me to go inside.

And as soon as I entered the room...

My knees were squeezed instantly, seeing the appearance of my little friend, who was currently fighting for her life...

With shaky steps, I approached Clarence who was lying weak, with a face filled with tools that functioned to support his life...

I immediately sat down next to Clarence's stool, and clasped his hand, which had an infusion tube.

There were two policemen watching us.

One, right next to me, and the other, standing right across from me.

"Clare... How's it going? Why is it like this?" I said, holding back the crying.

"Clare... Quickly recover... I miss you so much..."

"Clare... I loved you..."

Movement was seen in his fingers.

"Sir, did you see that?! Fingers moving!" I said to the two policemen.

The two policemen then approached, to be sure.

"Miss, are you sure? There's nothing here!" Annoyed by one of them.

"I swear, his finger was moving!"

"Miss, comeon!"

I'm really out of words, seeing the attitude of these two cops.

I sat down again, and clasped Clarence's hand!

"Clarence! Please please! Do something so they can believe I'm not joking!" I said a little forcefully.

"Miss, you can disturb the patient's peace!"

"Clare, please... The clare... You know, I love you so much as my best friend, anytime!"

'Tiiiiittttttttttttttttttttttt......'

What'sthis?! What the hell is going on?!

Why is it like this?!

One of the policemen swiftly went outside from this room.

"What's going on?! What's the matter?" I said stand up from my seat.

The police looked panicked, until finally a doctor, along with 5 nurses entered this room, and immediately checked Clarence's condition.

I saw something like this a few years ago!

The doctor attaches the pacemaker many times, the nurse stares expectantly at the monitor, and...

NO!!!

That's not gonna happen to Clarence!

Clarence was too young to leave this world!

Clarence is impossible...

The doctor's face, as well as the nurses, looked pale...

The doctor looked at his watch, and told the time of death to the nurse, and the two policemen who were there...

Clarence... My pal... The only man who loves me unconditionally.... A man who feels happy, even if he just sees me breathing...

The man who risked his life for me...

A man who is always ready to help me at any time..

The man who is currently... He has truly left me forever...

Clarence... Why should it be like this?

Why do I have to do it this way?!

Clarence... I really hate you...

I hated you so much, when you suddenly disappeared while we were on vacation!

I hate you so much, when even to the end of your life, I haven't paid back every good you've done to me...

**************************

Clarence Marshall Douglas...

After a long process, he was buried two days later...

Still, still with a strict escort from the police!

Even his death, became a news headline in this country...

Her parents, Clarence, Margaret's aunt, and other cousins, including Matthew, were also present during the funeral procession.

Broken down?

Sure was!

Let alone his family, even I was so devastated to know the many facts that Clarence could easily keep all this time!

This is the answer to every question I've had...

The question is, how can Clarence have that kind of money?

Why do you always ask to be contacted only by public telephone?

And another question, which, thanks to this incident, I was finally able to figure out.

According to the aunt's story, if Clarence had not attempted to escape, the police would not have shot him at that time.

Because the police still want to pry a lot of information, which they can confirm, Clarence is the key!

But destiny says something else...

Clarence seemed to want to keep everything to himself, even to the afterlife...

Clarence...

As bad as you are in the eyes of others... You're still my sweet little brother...

I love you so much, with all my heart...

Goodbye, Clarence...
