I screamed. I screamed again. I screamed a third time. I was frozen in fear all that I could do was scream. I hear footsteps heading towards the door. I heard the doorknob turning.

"Lia! Are you okay? The door is locked!" Junior yelled in.
"Lia unlock the door!" Jake continued to turn the door knob.
"Lia please give us a sign that you are okay in there." Junior's mother had run upstairs as well.
"What's will all the commotion." The doorknob turned as Logan asked.
"Lia screamed and won't open the door!" Junior sounded panicked. Finally I was able to move I ran to the door as fast as I can. I unlocked the door and ran into Junior's arms.
"Lia! What happened are you okay?" Jake looked at me. I ran to Jake and hugged him.
"Chucky." I whispered into Jake's ear.

The rest of the night was normal. I slept downstairs on the couch. I actually fell asleep for once. I woke up to overhear Logan and Bree in the kitchen. I didn't want to interrupt so I just pretended to be asleep.

"Logan I'm sorry!" Bree sounded hurt.
"Why didn't you tell us sooner?" Logan was angry.
"I didn't want you guys to worry!" Bree sounded as if she had been crying.
"Worried? Bree you have cancer! Of course we would be worried! We are your family you are supposed to tell us these types of things." Logan yelled.
"I'm sorry Logan!" Bree burst out into tears.
"You need to tell Junior." Logan calmed down.
"Tell me what?" Junior walked in staring at his parents.
"Oh Junior you should sit down. We need to talk." Bree sat down. My eyes filled with tears. I stayed silent.
"Mom what's going on?" Junior sounded upset.
"Son your mother she." Logan tried to explain but he just burst into tears and he walked out of the house.
"Mom what's up?" Junior was fighting tears. He was worried.
"I'm sick Junior." Bree wiped away her tears.
"Sick?" Junior sounded relieved.
"Yes I'm sick." Bree tapped the table.
"Yeah but it's just a cold or something right? You'll be fine?" Junior tried to fight tears.
"I wish Junior. I have stage 4 cancer." Bree burst into tears yet again.
"You'll be alright though right mom? Right?" The room went silent. I heard crying. I wanted so bad to hug Junior but I knew he would need time.

I waited until Bree left to "wake up." I walked into the kitchen and saw Junior sitting at the table crying. I ran up and hugged him.

"Junior it will all be okay!" I allowed him to cry into my shoulder.
"I take it you heard that?" He tried to wipe his tears away.
"Yeah Junior I'm here for you. You know that right?" I wiped his tears with my hand.
"Yeah I know Lia. Thank you." He smiled through the tears.
"Do you want to stay home today? I can stay with you? We can watch movies and hang out?" I smiled.
"That sounds nice Lia thank you." He turned his head quickly as someone quickly ran outside of the house.

The rest of the day Junior and I shut ourselves away in his room and watched movies. He cried into my shoulder a lot and I allowed him too. Around 5:00 p.m Bree came home.

"Junior I want to ask you something." Bree knocked on the door.
"Only if Lia can hear it too." Junior looked at me.
"That's fine." Bree said as the doorknob turned.
"Okay well be out in a second." He wiped his tears and stoop up, grabbing my hand.
"Okay Junior do you maybe want to come to my session with me?" Bree smiled.
"Sure mom." Junior wiped away a tear.
"Lia you can come too if you'd like. I'm sure Junior would be much more comfortable with you there." She looked at me.
"Thanks Mrs. Wheeler." I smiled.
"Please come Lia!" Junior looked at me.
"I will! Anything for you Junior." I smiled again.

An hour passed and Bree yelled for us to get downstairs so we could leave. Junior and I quickly put our shoes on and we hopped in the car. The car ride to the building was quiet. Junior barely spoke a single word. Bree was too upset to speak. I didn't want to be a bother. Finally after a 30 minute car ride we arrived at the location. Before Bree got out of the car she turned to Junior.
