It's funny because when you're a teenager, the last people you ever want to kick it with are your parents. Now that I'm older, that's all who I want to be around, my parents, uncles and aunties or even my friend's parents. Luckily, I was with my mom at the time when I started getting texts, snaps and notifications that Chadwick Boseman transcended. I always try to front on my mom, like no matter what's going on, everything's always super-dooper cool but while she was talking to me about her plans while I was visiting her, she saw I was devastated and deflated. She asked what was wrong and I couldn't even cap to her. I told her what happened and she immediately asked me if Chadwick knew the Lord? And before I could even say anything, we both felt the answer & I immediately felt better than how I emotionally felt before. She told me 'Ndo' while she gave me a hug and told me how much better I should feel to know that he knows the Lord. But yeah, parents are dope as fuck nowadays.
