Liam's pov
She's coughing, terribly...I don't know what I can do without her. I'm getting scared at this point, I promised myself I wasn't gonna cry, but here I am, with tears rolling down my cheeks. I've taken over 28 pages of my poetry notebook writing poems about grandma and how I don't want her to leave me, but I know she will, sooner or later. The memories I've had with her are just so beautiful, I won't ever be able to forget them.
I hold her hand gently "It's ok grandma...I'm here." I whisper, with more tears rolling down my face. After she calms down and drifts off, I decide to stand up and walk towards the window, I finally have time to admire the beautiful gardens this hospital has. Wait a minute...there's a girl there, and she's...looking up at me.
Emily's pov
Oh jeez. It's a boy. He's the one that was crying. He's making eye contact with me, help. I rapidly look down at the floor and sit back down. As if nothing had happened, I gather my stuff together quickly and start walking back to the building.
I approach the front desk and Julie's there, so I let my curiosity take advantage of me. "Hey, Juls...?" I ask. "Yeah?" She replies, not looking up from the papers she was writing on. "Um, who's that old lady on the 8th floor? I was at the gardens and heard her cough all the way, she sounded pretty bad." I ask once again, this time she finally looks up.
"She's Mrs. Jones, she has a severe heart condition that has been undiagnosed. But she has very limited time." She replies with a tone of sadness in her words. "How much exactly?" I question. She desperately sighs. I could tell she was probably annoyed by me asking so many questions at this point, I'm probably a huge distraction. "Like 2 days..." Wow. I was NOT ready for that, I was ready for a week or two. But 2 days? Damn, I see why the boy was crying so much now.
"One last question, I promise Julie. Is she here with anyone else?" She sighs once again. "No, but she gets visits from her grandson every day, Liam. He probably loves her a lot." I nod my head and start walking back to my room. "That's all I wanted to know, thanks!" She stares weirdly at me and goes back to working on her papers.
A/N: This is a rlly short chapter, but i'm trying to update as much as i possibly can <3
