[Just like that, that's the second father figure to leave their lives. To be perfectly honest, Herc was a lot better than Richard ever was. Sure, he came with a real bitch of a daughter but he tried, in his own way, to show that he cared. Or at least, that he wanted to make it work with their mom and he respected that the Becket children weren't little kids and were all old enough to remember their real dad (the jackass that he is) and that they weren't looking for a replacement.
And he's gone now too. Jazmine actually takes it harder than Raleigh expected and she and Mom grieve together and Raleigh and Yancy stick together because they don't really know what else to do and... that just leaves Chuck. By herself. Not that she really ever let any of them near her and part of Raleigh wants to ask what the hell they're going to do with her now.
Are they going to keep her like a dog or is she going to go live with her uncle or is she just going to wait it out until she's eighteen and then never speak to them again.
He puts out an effort after the funeral, coming to join her in the living room for a movie that she can't sit still for and that's fine. Raleigh feels like he needs to get out and do something after this depressing day.]
its still beautiful
