Umm so my name is Belle and well I am abused at home. I come to school with bruises and get bullies. Life SUCKS!!! Expect for Grandpa he helps me through my life and without him... Well we could just say I wouldn't be here. No place to go when dad pulls out his whip or Robert (my stepbrother) slaps me. My grandpa is about 70-ish and in good health... Okay health... Life threatening health? No die tomorrow health. My grandpa is very sick, he has leukemia. He was diagnosed with cancer 2 months ago and he has been in the hospital ever since. I visit him every day and sing our song, a song I sing when my grandpa is sick.

"Life is tough, don't give up. Don't leave me please. I need you to keep me strong, help me survive. Grandpa you're my toymaker and I your misfit toy. Stay just one more day."
My grandpa smiles and I start to cry.
"I don't like to see your tears my angel."
"And I don't like to see you sick Grandpa."
"Angel I will survive this just like I survived my other hospital trips."
"But grandpa this is cancer the biggest bully of them all, I just don't want death to..."
"DONT TALK LIKE THAT... Angel I will survive, as long as you believe"
I avoided tears as I knew he wouldn't survive. He could tell I was holding back tears. I reach in to hug him. Then I realize if he sees my cuts...
"WHAT ARE THESE I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU NO CUTTING!!"
"Grandpa it's not what you think..."
"You promised Belle... you promised me."
"I..." I cry, stuttering. "Grandpa don't leave me. You have to promise and I will promise not to cut no matter what happens."
Then a nurse comes in before he can promise. "Honey it's time to go."
I weep walking out of the room Grandpa is crying as well. He knows he might not make it either.
