Ebony's point of view

I'm sitting in the doctors office. Chloe sitting next to me. My hand hers. I just had a scan. To see what is wrong with me. I feel so tired. Chloe told me what happened at the house. I don't remember.

" miss Jacobs the scans show that you have a growth on your brain" the doctor says. I stare at him.

"But I thought it was migraines" I stutter my voice shaking. Chloe's grip on my hand tightens.

" these aren't migraine. It's most likely a brain tumour and it explains the symptoms you have been experiencing poor vision, headaches nausea" the doctor explains.

" brain tumours can also present and have the same symptoms as migraines" the doctor adds. I stare into space. This must be a mistake.

" this tumour you can cure it right" Chloe asks

" this is a serious type of cancer" the doctor says tears form in my eyes. Am I going to die.

" this is ridiculous. Ebony she is my baby sister. She can't have cancer" Chloe says tightening her grip on my hand.

"I'm so sorry. The position of the tumour means we can't operate" the doctor says a single tear rolls down my face.

" there must be something you can do" Chloe says her voice breaking slightly.

" we're going to start a course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy " the doctor says

"I feel fine now" I say looking up at the doctor he gives me a sad smile.

"I have written down here for you to come in in a couple of days and we will start your chemotherapy" the doctor says passing me a card. I nod.

" let's go" I say to Chloe. She nods. I thank the doctor and we head out to the car.

I sit in the car as does Chloe as she was driving. Chloe wraps her arms around me bringing me into a tight hug. I begin to cry. The sound of my sobs fill the car.

"Am I going to dry" I cry

"Don't you dare say that your going to be okay" Chloe says tears in her eyes.

"I want to go home" I say my voice cracking.

"To brad's?" Chloe asks

"No" I interrupt her

"I want to go back to the flat. I can't tell him. He doesn't need this" I say tears rolling down my eyes.

"Ok" Chloe says not arguing with me. Chloe starts driving home.

We arrive at the flat. I head into the house Chloe coming In behind me.

I walk straight past Ethan and go straight up the stairs to my room I slam the door. As soon as my back hits the door I slide down the tears just fall. I begin to cry. I bring my hand to my mouth to try muffle my cries but it's not really working.

What am I going to do

" ebs" I hear Chloe say knocking on my door.

"Ebony let me in please" Chloe says her voice breaking as she knocks softly on the door again. I stand up and I open the door and fall into her arms as she holds me tight. I feel another pair of arms wrap around us. I look with my teary eyes to see Ethan.

"Your gonna get through this Ebs" Ethan whispers kissing the top of my head.

"Your gonna be okay" Chloe says holding me tight. Ethans grip tightening around us both.
