R.I.P Brittany Veal
Cathy just called me to tell me all my AK sisters had a meeting at Ace's house. My big sister, Britany Veal, was shot last night, July 22 2005, in the head at 108th and Crenshaw. She was with some guy that no one of my sisters knew, they were cleaning out the trash in his car, and some car drove by and shot her in the head, and him in the shoulder. Britany was one of the smartest and most beautiful sisters I had. She was the Dean while I was pledging. She was the first person to hug me after I admited to myself and the world that JT was dead. She is the big sister I had the most in common with. And now she's dead. She graduated in June, and died in July. She's the second person I've loved that died because of a gun. And I don't know what else to say or do with myself. I should probably stop here because the more I type the more I cry and the more it sinks in on me that she's gone, but she was such a beautiful person, I could write about it for hours, days even. I think I'll stop here though.
