3 Days Left............. #Wattys2015

Chapter 2 (The Talk)

Daniel's P.O.V.

I'm so nervous about the thing my mom has to tell me about. I just can't wait till I hear it.

Then I was dropped off at my house.

I walked in and my mom was just laying on the couch, doing nothing, she had a cigarette in her mouth. She got up and took the cig from her mouth and said,

"Sit down son, we need to talk."

I sat down and she started to explain the whole thing.

"Well you see something special is coming up this Thursday."

'She's talking about my birthday' I thought

"It's my 10 year divorce anniversary." she continued

'It's was her divorce anniversary!?! She forgot my birthday.' I thought

"But that's not it...."

'Here it comes.'

"You see before I gave birth to you I had Lung cancer and after you were born I was treated."

I paused for a moment.

"So your saying that I have untreated Lung cancer!?!" I asked

"Yes you have it, but I got word that you only have 3 days left till you pass away and there's nothing we can do about it."

My heart skipped a beat, I can't believe it, my life is going to be over in 3 short days. I'm going to leave everyone I know and love.

"And your father is going to court to try to get custody of you in Wednesday." my mom said.

"Oh great, my evil father is going to try again to take me." I said

Then I ran to my room, slammed the door and realized that in 3 days will be my birthday.
