Steven doesn't know I have cancer, he thinks I'm totally normal. I don't want to tell him nor will I, because it didn't work last time. When Steven was over late one night and it came, I stopped breathing. He didn't know what was happening, so he called 911. When I was in the hospital, the day after, Steven and my mom came to visit. My mom went to the cafeteria (to get beer) and Steven stayed with me. Then he asked that one question "What happened". "Listen Steven, I have lung cancer and only 5 years to live. That is the main reason my dad left us. Once a few months I usually stop breathing for some reason and I guess that was the time", I said sadly. "I have a question for you, well technically a mission. Can you come with me to visit my dad one last time", I said exclaimed.
Steven said the best news EVER " I actually dig cancer chics. Why do you want to visit the person who left you and you don't even know where he lives." That's when I told him about what the letter said and how I want to talk to him. "I was thinking we leave in a few months if you want to come with me." Steven finally agreed and I was happy the whole day.
