 I woke up at 5 am..my skin was itching so badly..I whined..I felt the left side of my face..I froze in place.. something soft was on top of my face..I jumped out of bed and ran to the mirror.." what the actual fuck.." There was a flower on the side of my face..I touched it..I also noticed my eye was red..really red..It hurts..I touched my skin around the flower..I instantly regretted that..That hurts so bad.." auw..Now how am I going to cover this up?.."I went to my desk and looked through the drawers..I found some bandage..I looked in the mirror and started bandaging the left side of my head.."wow..I look like a killer from a crappy horror movie.." I went to the bathroom making sure no one saw me..I started doing my hair..letting it fall in front of my face to cover the bandage..

After I was ready I grabbed my bag and started to leave..but I felt something tug my shirt ..I stopped and turned around to stare back at my little sister.." do you need something liz?.." She looked at me with puppy eyes.."Can I have the pretty blue flower that you are holding?"I looked at her confused.." I'm not holding anything-" I looked at my hand.." ah shit!" I ran to the toilet.." so is that a no?" she looked down , upset..

I pulled my sleeve up.." fuck..not my arm too..I guess it's time to get the bandages again..I hope I won't look like a mummy at the end of the week.."I got some bandages wrapped them around the flower and started running out of my house.." mikey! where did you put the pretty flower!!" I heard liz yell after me..I rolled my eyes and went to school..

...

People stared at me as I entered the school grounds..I hated it.. Simon grabbed my arm and pulled me to the bathroom..he looked at me.." what the fuck happened?"he sounded concerned.. " uh- it's difficult to explain.." He glared at me.." just tell me ..I already know.." I sighed.." It got worse.." He gulped.." worse? In what way? " I pulled my sleeve up and showed him the flowers.." they're growing on my skin..And it hurts really bad.." Simon stared at my arm..He held my arm looking at the flowers closely.." those are mark his favorite kind of flowers..Maybe there's a medicine that can help with the pain?" I laughed slightly.." no..we're not telling anyone else.."Simon let go of my arm and glared ta me.." so you're planning on not telling anyone? and what if you die? I think your friends and family would like to know what's going on.."I scoffed at that.." let's not argue right now..This will be our secret.." He sighed.. 

We ignored it for the day..Or more like I forced Simon to ignore it..School was hell , people kept staring at me and whispering about me..I absolutely hated it...But at least nobody expect Simon knows what is going on..And if I'm lucky father will be at work the whole day..then I could hide from him..Cause he would know something is going on with me..

Me and Simon decided to get some snacks and go to the park..I totally forgot about my sibling..The sun was setting as I realized that nobody picked my siblings up from school.." fuck!" Before Simon could say anything I started running home.." I'll call you when I'm home!" I yelled at him before leaving to go to my house..I was exhausted and felt really sick as I arrived at my house...everything was blurry..I was panting..I shouldn't have ran..I saw fathers car in the driveway..it gave me some relief but also made me scared..I'm in so much trouble..I felt to sick to go to the backdoor so I opened the front door..Father stood in front of me..I could tell..I heard some voices probably his..but it was all blurry..I felt myself get really lightheaded..Before I could do anything I passed out..

I was at work doing my stuff when I got a call from my kids school..Turns out mike didn't bring his siblings home..I was pissed by it..I had to stop work early to get my two youngest children home..I made them dinner even though I sucked at it..I made myself some tea and sat down in the kitchen..My children were already asleep..But my eldest was nowhere to be found..I tapped my feet against the floor..Please just be safe..I swear to god if something happened to him..

I waited for hours..until I heard the front door open..This was the first thing to worry..Mike always enters through the backdoor..I stood up and ran to the front door.. " mike! where the fuck were you?!..mike?" Something was wrong with my son..I could sense it..He looked pale..really pale..and he didn't respond..he was looking out of focus..before I could say anything he fainted..I catch him  before he hit the ground..I was so confused and worried..I brought him to my room..I put his stuff away..I got a wet towel and lay it on his forehead..I hoped he just had a fever..I noticed the bandages..." when did this happen?..did he get into a fight..maybe that's why he passed out..did he have blood loss? Oh dear what do I do?.." I'm not good in these situations..I first changed him into his pj's..I got some pills and stuff..but he wouldn't be able to take them..I sat next to him..I started unwrapping the bandage.." flowers?..." I touched the flowers..they were stuck on to his skin..I took a notice of his face..He looked so tired or even sick.. what is going on with my son?..It's good that it is weekend..I'm going to take good care of him..first of all I'm going to question him..then I'll take him to the doctor..I feel like this is not just a fever..I went and got some coffee..I sat down on the bed but stayed awake..I had to watch over my son..

I didn't sleep the whole night..around 4 am Evan walked into my room..he had a nightmare ..Like usual..I told him he could cuddle to mike..he seemed really happy about it..but I couldn't help but notice his reaction to his sick brother..he looked terrified.." hey Evan..do you know anything on what's going on with your brother.."  he looked nervous..he shook his head..but I know my children..and Evan is a bad liar.." Evan dear this is really important..do you know anything I don't.." He looked away upset..but he gave in and nodded.." I-I don't know if it was a dream or not...but..I saw mikey.. he was coughing really badly... there were flowers coming out of his mouth..he was choking on them..And there was b-blood everywhere.." he started crying..I was taken back..blood?..flowers.." these kind of flowers?.." I lifted mike his hair and pointed to the flowers on his face..Evan stared in horror and nodded..I sighed.." how about you sleep now and I'll talk to him about it tomorrow?" He nodded.." but idk if he's going to talk to you.." he said .. " believe me he will.." He got under the blanket and cuddled to mike his almost lifeless looking body..It sent shivers down my back.. I need to help him..fix him if needed.. I watched my two sons sleep..I checked mike his pulse every twenty minutes to make sure he stays alive..I sat in my room..only one thought on my mind..

What is wrong with my son?
