jade was going to Sikowitazs class when she got a text from her sister Lira.
"Hey, lil'sis umm..I don't know how to tell you this but...mom died, she committed suicide. They found a note saying it was because of father, she said that she loves us and that she left you her locket and me her pearls. I love you lil'sis I'm coming home for the funeral next weekend" jade read the message and walked to class and sat by beck and layed her head on his shoulder, "you ok babe"? asked beck running his fingers through her black locks, "I'll tell you and cat after school we'll meet at your place since I know my dad's home". she whispered

after school: Beck's RV
"what's wrong Jadey"? asked cat "m-my m-mom committed suicide because of dad and her funeral is next weekend", jade said on the verge of tears, beck put his hand around her waist and kissed her cheek, and layed his head on her shoulder "I love you, I'm sorry about your mom," said beck

next weekend at the funeral

jade was sitting in the front row with beck, lira, and cat. "we gather today to say goodbye to the beloved isabella west, a great mother, worker and just an amazing person, in general," said the priest, but Jade wasn't listening, she leaned her head on becks shoulder, and silently cried.

(Hey mom, dead mom
I need a little help here
I'm prob'ly talking to myself here
But dead mom, I gotta ask
Are you really in the ground?)

After the service, everyone went home, lira was staying with jade and there father for another week, before going back to London for university.
once they got in there house jade ran upstairs to her room with lira following behind her to make sure she was ok.
"hey jay, you ok"? Asked lira as she slowly opened jades door, jade was sprawled out on her couch sobbing.

'(Cause I feel you all around me
Are you here, dead mom?
Dead mom
Dead mom
I'm tired of trying to iron out my creases)

Lira went and sat in the floor by the black couch watching her sister cry, she felt bad for her, while she was in London, jade had to put up with there dad who abused them and there mom was the only one who didn't criticize jade for the way she acts, dresses or her dreams and now that person is gone.

(I'm a bunch of broken pieces
It was you who made me whole
Every day dad's staring at me
Like all, "Hurry up, get happy
Move along
Forget about your mom"
'Cause daddy's in denial
Daddy doesn't wanna feel
He wants me to smile
And clap like a performing seal
Ignored it for a while
But daddy's lost his mind for real
You won't believe the mess that we've become)

Jade went to school the next week and acted as if nothing happened, Beck, cat, Robbie, Andre, and Tori was worried about her.

(You're my home
My destination
And I'm your clone
Your strange creation
You held my hand
And life came easy
Now jokes don't land
And no one sees me
Nothing seems to fit
Mamma, is this it?
Are you receiving?)

A couple weeks after the funeral, lira went back to London, and their father became more abusive towards jade.

(I want something to believe in or I'm done
Take me where my soul can run or I'll be in my bedroom
Wake me when I'm twenty one)

Beck received a wired text from jade saying:

to: beck🖤
from: jade✂️
dear beck,
   babe I love you, thank you for always being there for me, take care of cat for me, plz don't let her do something stupid.
                     Goodbye,
                                Love,
                                       Jade
Beck, hopped in his car and raced to his girlfriends house
Beck opened the door and raced to her room only to find her bathroom door open and noise coming from inside, he quietly opened the door and saw her back up against the bathtub knees to her chest crying, with a bottle of pils in hand, he slowly made his way over to her, took the pill bottle out of her hand and hugged her, she sobbed into his plaid shirt he just sat there stroking her hair to calm her down.

(Daddy's moving forward
Daddy didn't lose a mom
Mama won't you send a sign?
I'm running out of hope and time
A plague of mice, a lightning strike
Or drop a nuclear bomb
No more playing daddy's game
I'll go insane if things don't change)

"I-i couldn't do it" is all she said before going back to crying, "I love you babe, cat and lira love you, even Robbie, Andre and tori love you, so don't ever feel like your alone" said beck

(Whatever it takes to make him say your name
Dead mom)
