"He said he will help me get it. He helped me seal my first serious writing deal. He was a brother and more. A big brother with a big heart. An amazing soul with humor "Today, I wake up to the news that he is gone. Just like that. Three months after his graduation. And two days after his wedding. My mind fails to contain this. Ghettosfinest. Rest well my brother. Rest in eternal peace king."
