We talked over the phone and he mentioned to me he wanted to shave his hair off, I told him "do not go bald pls" so he said ok. I went to visit him he jumped out from the back of a car trying to scare me playing around and I noticed he was bald😞 we had an argument and stopped talking for a few days and one day on my way home from school my neighbor walks up to me and says "hey who is that guy that walks you home?" I said my boyfriend why? He then tells me "he got shot on florence ave" I told him "are you fu#!$ng with me?" He said "you dont believe me? Call him when you get home" and thats exactly what I did, but his mom picked up and said no daniel isnt here daniel is dead. I broke down and couldn't catch my breath😢 I just wish he was still here and wish he had never went bald.😭 WORD OF ADVICE "TELL YOUR LOVED ONES YOU LOVE THEM OFTEN" "GETTING MAD OVER THE SMALLEST SH!T ISNT WORTH IT"
