"Im so sorry,y/n"

No. No please, don't say it.

"His condition has worsened, the doctors have given him a week."

Silence. I sit drowning in my own thoughts. I finally get to reconnect with my dad ... and build a relationship with him, and i only have a week. Is this punishment for running away? Did i do something wrong? My thoughts were interrupted by Ryoko's voice through the phone.

"Y/n?" She says, "Can you please say something. So i know you're ok?" I can hear the pity in her voice.

"A w-week?" I asked my voice shattering as I sob uncontrollably. I unplug the charger from my phone and from the wall. And grab my coat off the rack again. "Im heading over, can you please wait until i get there, i really dont want him to be alone." I plead, trying to calm down my tears.

"Of course!" She beams down the phone.

"Thank you so much, i really appreciate it." I say, walking out of the door.

***At the hospital:

"Im here to see a (d/f/n)(l/n), could you tell me which room he's in please." I ask the receptionist. She nods before tapping away at the keyboard. I tapped my fingers on the desk, anxiously waiting for her answer. "He's in the ICU, room 204." I thanked her before dashing off to find my dad, Ryoko was standing outside his room. She walked towards me and hugged me once she was close enough, and i hugged her back. "Thank you for waiting, Ryoko." I tell her as i break away from the hug.

"Honestly it's no problem. How are you feeling?" She asks, tilting her head to the side in sympathy.

"I honestly just wanna see my dad, is it ok for me to go in there?" I ask, running my hand through my hair.

"The doctors are still running some tests. So it might take a while." She replied.

"You can leave if you want to, i really don't want to hold you up." I tell her with a fake smile.

"Now why would i do that." She answers with a smile. Comforted by her words, I sat down until the doctors let me in the room.

*** an hour later

I open the door to see my dad, sleeping on the hospital bed, looking even paler than he was before, i hold the door open for Ryoko to come in but she shakes her head, "I wouldnt wanna intrude, its really not my place, plus it is getting kind of late so I'm going to head home." She says, rubbing the back of her neck.

"Oh ok, thank you for waiting with me."i smiled. She turned around and left with a wave. I go to sit beside my dad, and take his hand in mine, like i did the first night i cane home. Tears slid down my cheeks, as i think about all the pain he must be feeling right now. I lean back in my chair, with his hand still in mine and fall asleep, after about an hour A nurse comes in and tell me that visiting hours are over, with a consoling smile on her face. "Can you please tell my dad, i was here? I don't want him to think i didn't come by."I ask.

"Of course." She says smiling again.

*** next day

I grab my coat, and head out the door to go and see my dad. I already let Draken know, what happemed and why i have to take time off already, and he was surprisingly understanding. As i walk outside i notice an unfamiliar car parked outside, i think nothing of it ... maybe someones just visiting a neighbour.

***
I go to my dad's hospital room, and i can hear a woman in there ... crying. Curious, i open the door because, my dad has never had another woman in his life since that pathetic excuse for a mother. My dads asleep and woman with brown hair and eyes to match, was sat beside his bed looked at me tears creeping down her face, her mouth wide open. "Uhm, i really don't wanna come off as rude, but who are you?" I ask with an awkward smile.

"Are you y/n." She asks, her voice seconds away from breaking.

"Yeah, how do you know my name?"

"Because I'm the one who gave it to you." She says, looking right at me tears still streaming down her face. My heart sinks to the floor, thousamd of thoufhts rush my head at once, but all of them were soon washed away by pure anger and hatred. "Get out." I tell her, all emotion leaving my body. She looked up at me with eyes that pleaded me to let her stay but how could I. What kind of mother leaves her child with no explanation as to why at all. I dont want nor need ger back in my life. "I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE!!" I shout at her, after a few moments of waiting. She nods and gets up to leave, before opening the door she hands me a piece of paper with her number on it. "I can explain, if you give me a chance. You can contact me on this number after 8 because I'll be at work."

"I don't care get out." I tell her hastily in a final attempt to make her leave before i have a mental breakdown. Finally she leaves, making sure to close the door behind her ... i wait a few seconds before sliding down to the floor with my back against the door and breaking down. First my father, and now this?! I don't need this shit! I think as tears stream down my face, and i gasp for air between sobs.

"Y/n?" My dad calls weakly. I hurriedly wipe all the tears from my face, even though he probably already caught me crying. "Hey dad, how're ya feeling?" I ask sniffing and smiling.

"Like shit." He chuckles before wincing in pain. "Y/n, i wanted to let you know, don't hate your mother." He looks at me, holding his hands out signaling for me to hold it.

"Dad, you drank yourself to bed every night because she left. You never paid attention to me because you all you could think about was her after she left ... my childhood was miserable because SHE left. I don't understand how I'm not supposed to hate her." I tell him, trying not to raise my voice.

"Y/n, I know that i didnt treat you how a father is supposed to, and for that i am so sorry." He begins

"Dad you alread-"

"Please y/n let me finish ... even after i acted that way towards you i still loved you with whatever piece of my heart i had left at the time, and after im gone." His voice breaks, "I dont want you to be alone. At least hear her out, for me." He says a single tear streaming down his face. I can't say no. Maybe she did have a good reason, i don't know. "Fine." I answer rolling my eyes sarcastically, chuckling slightly. "I love you so much y/n" he says before closing his eyes. The monitor starts flatlining. My heart drops. "Dad?" No reaction. "DAD?!" I call panicking and lightly shaking him. The doctors come rushing in telling me to leave. "NO! " i scream, trying to push the doctors out of the way so i can get to my dad. "THIS ISNT FAIR YOU SAID HE HAD WEEK!" I scream.

"Miss please!! Were gonna need you to step outside so we can help!" They command sounding slightly panicked.

"YOU COULDN'T EVEN TELL HOW MUCH TIME HE HAS LEFT!! LET ME GO I NEED TO SEE HIM!!" I scream again, suddenly a pair a hands wrap around my waist and pull me bk.

"Y/n, calm!" A familiar voice tells me. I turn around to see Ken stood behind me staring at me with his face twisted into a sympathetic expression. At that moment i didnt even want to know why he was here i just needed to bot be alone. "They said he had a week." I whimper, letting my forehead fall into his chest. "They told me he had a week." I whisper again, before i completely break down in his arms. He put one hand behind my back and one behind my head, and pulled me into a hug. "Im sorry." He told me, whilst i cried into his chest.
