"Lily has cancer." And I felt a tear slip down my cheek.

I can't believe my little sister who I love so much has cancer.

"Wh-what happened?" I studded out.

"She fainted yesterday and she wouldn't wake up so we brought her to the hospital and they took some blood and ran some tests and found out that she has stage 3 Osteosarcoma cancer."

She has fucking bone cancer!

Dammit this isn't fair!

Why did this happen to my little sister?!

"How long will she be in the hospital?" I ask quietly.

"For about a week" the doctor says.

"Can I see her?" I ask hopefully.

"Yes"

When I walk into the room I feel tears threaten to come outof my eyes and I try to hold it back but it's hard when I see her just sleeping their. And I turn around so I don't look at her and Hunter is right behind me so run in to him and he just hugs me as I cry.

I would normally find this weird but I can't even think about anything right now. All I do think is that my little sister has cancer.

So I just hug Hunter and sob.

~*~*~
After I cried on Hunter I sat beside of Lily's bed and I sang to her quietly.

Lily would always want me to sing her so she would calm down, or make her go to sleep, and for entertainment. In other words she loves it when I sing to her.

Right now I'm singing a song from her favorite movie. Frozen. I swear that girl is obsessed with that movie.

Her blankets are of that movie. She has the dress up clothes for the girls in the movie. Hell, her pajamas are of frozen.

I only know the songs by heart because lily would always have me sing the songs. And I've seen the movie so many times I probably know it word by word.

Anyways I'm singing do you want to build a snowman.

Towards the end of the song Lily opens her eyes.

"Emma?" She whispers so low that I can barley hear her.

"Yeah?" I say leaning closer to her.

"Thank you for singing to me"

I smile and say "no problem"

She smiles slightly back at me and falls back to sleep.

I lean back in my chair and I close my eyes to get some rest.

~*~*~*~
I wake up to my mom lightly shaking me awake.

"Honey, wake up" she says.

I open my eyes and ask "why are you waking me up?"

"Because I think you should go to school."

What I just found out my sister has cancer! Fucking cancer!

"Why?" I ask trying not to sound angry and confused.

"I think you should be around your friends right now. Right after school I'll pick you up and bring you back to the hospital. Hunter went back to the house when you fell asleep to get you some clothes."

Maybe my moms right. Maybe I need my friends right now.

I nod and get up.

"The clothes are in that Walmart bag" my mom tells me.
