---Seth's POV--- 

Me: I- I don’t understand. I see her every day. She seems perfectly fine. She smiles, laughs, eats, and everything else. She’s fine! I need to go see her.

Paul: SETH, you’re killing her inside out. Do you know why she comes downstairs every day even in this condition?

I shook my head no, wondering why she even comes downstairs with her condition. Why does she come downstairs then if she’s not okay? Why?

Leah: TO SEE YOU SMILE. That’s the only thing that’s keeping her alive, Seth. She’s forcing herself to do all of this. She’s forcing herself to smile, be happy, eat, and be okay. If you see that she’s okay and happy, then you’ll be happy and smile. That smile of yours is what makes her go on with her days. That’s all she needs to see every day, to be in this world.

Me: I need to see her, now.

I want you to see someone else. I want you to be happy too. Okay?’ She frowned at me and nodded. I smiled, and she made a half smile. I carried her downstairs to eat something. I told her we were going cliff diving. She nodded, and finished eating
