"Why won't you just go? there might be more symptoms! self prescription isn't advised and you know it!" a worried woman said. "Then, why won't you just mind your own business? is that hard to do?" a teenager replied to the worried woman. The woman sits down and looks at that depressed looking teenager and says "You know I'm dying right? can't you just go for me to give me relief before I go? "


'it's not like will be apart for so long I'll be going there too!" she replied. " You've must have gone insane Maria through all those self-prescript pills you took!" the teenager walks away from her mother as the worried mother looks at her child she see's multiple cuts and bruises in the child's arm and neck the mother feels miserable in seeing the child to go through all of it alone the mother couldn't do anything she was also slowly dying day by day since she has stage 4 cancer, She tried persuading her daughter multiple times and it always end in the same sentence in every conversation the mother feels the burden for her child.


'She will never change my mind I'll just rot here when she's gone in that way i can also leave this crappy world" Maria says as she cuts herself one more time and deeper this time this her coping mechanism which is wrong and unhealthy for her state, a tear drops in her eyes as she physically hurt herself to her this is "the healing process".


A depressing room and a depressing child isn't it quite obvious enough to see the problem there was always zero motivation in fixing anything about herself or her room its been like this every single year no improvement but she does want to change but that doesn't sound so easy to her isn't it? Days have passed her mother is still dying but now faster than ever, Some routines have changed Maria cooks and cleans for her mother everyday now "Maria go buy some fresh strawberries in the market I've been craving for it since last night!" the mother shouts Maria runs towards the kitchen and takes the money of her mother's purse and runs towards the door and buys her mother fresh strawberries. Maria was smiling this was a feeling she has never felt before as she runs to the market and buys the strawberries a sudden heavy rainfall occurred.


Maria's worried now the rainfall hasn't stopped yet she made an indecisive decision and just made a run out towards the rain as she runs as fast a she could she opened the door and surprise to her mother has passed away, she calls the ambulance "Time 5:45, Date: May 9" it was mother's day life is always full of surprises huh'? "So that's why she wanted strawberries"


*FLASHBACKS*

"Maria! Maria! Maria!" Maria's mother shouts " WHAT!" Maria replies as she runs down the stairs "Buy me Strawberries" as her mother gives her money she completely runs out to the market to buy a big kilo of it since its mothers day she always chooses the biggest since her mother always deserves the best right? as Maria comes home and gives it to her mother she questioned one thing as soon as she gave it "Mom? Why do you always want strawberries on Mother's Day?" the mother replied "That's a good question Maria, well for the reason of that is a strong liking or desire to someone!" the mother happily eats and feed her child with a piece of strawberries the daughter looks at her mother one last time and kisses her cheek and whispers "I'll be okay stop worrying now?" as she said these words she gave a cold gaze towards the nurse and passes by and murmurs "take care of her or I'll take care of you" the daughter leaves while the nurse froze in the spot and looks at the teenager giving the daughter a nod as they left the daughter smiled while the ambulance leaves the nurse takes a glance on more time over the girl and see's that smile fade away quickly the daughter turns her back "hey? u okay? you seemed dozed off when we picked the cancer patient earlier..." the man says "oh? me? I' fine don't worry about me maybe I'm just hungry you know i haven't eaten breakfast yet.." the nurse laughs it off its been 2hours since they picked up that cancer patient it still makes her curious about the child she encountered there...


Nurse POV:

Its been three days since i saw that child...for some reason I'm interested in helping her but what's with the cold gaze? does she hate me or something? what's wrong with that child? I was calling Chad across the hallway cause I've been trying to get that child my help I don't why but I'll do it anyways, "Yo wassup? Nurse Bella? " chad said "oh I wanna check on the cancer patients kid that we took a few days ago" i said he looked surprised? yet concerned about my question maybe he noticed it too? Chad puts his arms in my shoulder and says " You noticed it too?" I was confused that child said something to him too? I'm getting creeps "What?" I said in a confused tone "I saw what she did to you" chad said I pulled him and took him to the nurse's room since nobody's there we sat down and he looked very worried but somehow interested with this case


Silence was filled in the room he started to look at me and said "She Threatened you right?" I looked at him back as he said these words i explained what happened he was creeped up from the looks in his eyes it's like he has never experience such thing he spoke again and said "I never felt so concerned and interested i my whole entire life Bella, Maybe that child needs help? should she see Doc. Kyle? you know he's the best in treating patients right?" i replied "But, How can we persuade that child?" a moment of silence....we both started thinking a plan for it we we're so invested for some reason it was interesting for us to see this child
