It was a cold rainy day. I was working as a store manager at a toy shop. It was December 15, 2012, the holiday season was in full swing. We had just survived 12/12/12. You know, the day the world was suppose to end according the the Mayan/Aztecs calendar. But, the world didn’t end for…

Yama: Chapter 2
The hospital was its own scene. Uncles, Aunts, Grandma, cousins, siblings, and parents of Yama, my eldest brother…crowded up the waiting room.

I woke up early the next day and headed to work. I worked inside a mall and the holiday hours were long and dreadful. I think I had to be at work at 6am. It was 12/16/12 and it was my coworker’s birthday. I walked in with balloons and a cake for her. She had…

Yama: Chapter 4
12/16/12 continued to be a living nightmare. Not the one with the zombies and monster…it was its own version. It started to engrave in my heart..Yama is dead. Yama is dead. Yama is dead. I would escape to my room and turn on my little heater and sit in front of it. The house was…

Yama: Chapter 9
Black magic isn’t even something I like to talk about because I strongly believe that we attract positivity and negativity. Black magic is something I do not want to feed into or attract but it is a big part of Yama’s story and I must speak his truth. Yama was about twenty years old, he…
