Why can't you remember me?

Chapter 31

I didn't have the heart to tell him the truth. I couldn't go through what I went through yesterday. When he had woken up and I told him he had a week to live. I couldn't see those tears and the pain again. How sad and depressed he was. He didn't eat at all or sleep just cried and stared out the window. I tried to comfort him but he pushed me away. I-I just couldn't go through that again. It was better to lie. To tell him he had more time left than.
"About a month." I felt my throat closing up and I looked down at my feet. Yes it was best to lie to him. To keep him happy.
He let out a sigh and sat further back into his pillows. It was quiet in the room except for the hum of the machines and ticking of the clock.
"This blows...." He muttered
I couldn't help but smile a little. "Well at least you have a month."
"To do what?" He snapped at me. "To sit here in this bed? Sounds like a ton of fun. They probably won't even let me outside you know."
"Yeah....." I said lamely
It was quiet in the room Nash glared out the window. His brow furrowed in anger. As he looked out at the world so close to him.
"Um n-"
"Can you just go?" He asked not looking away from the window.
"But Nash can yo-."
"Just leave already."
"Na-"
"JUST GO AWAY!!!" He yelled looking at me, tears in hugs eyes.
I bit my tongue and nodded knowing that I couldn't speak without my voice breaking. Tears rolled off my cheeks as I opened the door walking out and shutting it softly behind me. I walked a few steps away before I leaned my back up against the wall. I let out a shaky breath closing my eyes I slid down wrapping my arms around my knees. I cried softly, not wanting anyone to see. I just couldn't take it. Nash had six days left. And I couldn't do shit about it.
