If I Was Your Woman: A BBW Camden Love Story

by Mz. Toni

  “Excuse me sir you have to move!” an EMT worker said. I heard him talking but I couldn't let her go, I just couldn't. She was the love of my life and I let her die. Finally managing to take her from me, she was put on a stretcher. With me holding her hand on one side, I watched as Carlos held her other. Both of our faces covered in tears, both of us feeling guilty and both of us not knowing who the bullets were meant for.

  “You're gonna be ok baby girl, you have to be,” Carlos said squeezing her hand.

  “I love you daddy and I forgive you,” she whispered causing Carlos to let out a gut wrenching scream.
