Afreeah

Chapter-5 your the only person i have left

The doctors said that my mom is suffering from stage 3 cancer and she would not survive,she only had four months to live, I cried and cried and cried,Maryam said everything would  be alright,and I said
alright do you know what stage 3 cancer is how could you even think of saying that, I ran outside and said "everyone in my family is dying one bye one first dad then iqrah nos mom what I'm I suppose to do ya Allah please help me" I prayed as much as I could for mom to be safe, went inside and hugged her, maryam went home to bring mom's and our stuff because the doctors said we could stay with her, she brought food,snacks,my cloths,her cloths and mom's cloths, they had to shave mummy's long and silky hair off,I felt like crying but I didn't,I had to be there for mom.
The next morning,
I woke up and saw that mom was crying in pain while crawling on the floor typing to reach something, I immediately stood up and woke Maryam up we both helped mom and I said "mom do you want me to cry" with tears, mom said "afreeah please don't cry I'll be sad please" we all hugged and promised each other we would not cry again, ishah came over to the hospital with her mom after I got ready and we left for school.
In school,
-Marwa: hey wierdo's did you miss me?
-Ishah: can you just stop bullying us you know Afreeah has been through a lot.
-Afreeah: please I don't have time for all this.
-Saeema:Kai afreeah you better stay in your poor place who do you think your talking to. iqrah, oh no wait she's dead.

they all laughed and went, why is everyone so cruel I said I wish I was never born to face all of this I said.

At class I was sitting and listening to music then ishah came and slammed the table and said, "who do you think you are messing with stay awway from my Hussein okay stay in your stupid place and we are not friends anymore Wawia caway" and left.
I sat there looking so confused and began to cry " now my best friend hates me wow"
There is no use of being in this world if everyone is leaving you one by one please Ya Allah help me.

Closing time,
Hey afreeah ya ki ke Maryam said ,while picking me,and I replied " lafiya"
She noticed I looked sad and asked me what happened I told her everything and broke down into tears, then maryam said you know there are plenty kinds of people in this world so you are never prepared for what is going to happen okay, I know but like it was unexpected I mean my best friend since kindergarten I would have never guessed she'd do something like this to me. It's okay Maryam said,let's go home.
