Aimee was broken at the thought that Fletch had cancer. Her head was a mess and she had no idea what to do about it.

She was scared she was going to lose him. She didn't want to be left without him. She couldn't raise their kids without him.

What made it worse was that her own brother knew and he never told her. She felt betrayed. She felt like she couldn't trust him at all.

She knew that it was hard for her. Especially as Raf was her brother. And he had kept a huge secret from her. She didn't know what to think or do.

She knew how they hadn't told the kids about it. Not wanting them to get worried or upset. But she knew that Evie was close to guessing that something wasn't right.

All she knew was that she was scared she was going to lose Fletch. And she didn't know what to do.

Morning came all too quickly for her. Aimee woke in bed and saw Fletch wasn't there. She grabbed her dressing gown and walked downstairs.

Fletch was sitting on the sofa. Aimee sat down next to him. "I don't understand why you couldn't tell me? I would have been here for you. You could have told me."

Fletch turned to her. He sighed. "Do you really think I wanted to stress you out with this? Aimee... I love you. And I couldn't have put you through this," he told her.

"But we're in a relationship. So we should talk. We should communicate. I just... I feel like my brother knew when it should have been me," Aimee said.

"He's my friend. And I had to tell someone. Don't be mad at him," Fletch told her.

Aimee didn't know what to say. She didn't know what she could say. She just wanted things to be simple.

Aimee went into work. She saw Madison. "Fletch may have cancer. My brother knew and he never told me," she said.

Madison frowned. She looked to her. "Why did he not tell you? What's that all about?" She asked.

"I don't know. He's told me to not blame my brother. But I can't help it. I feel betrayed. I feel like I've been hurt and I can't do this. If he dies, I have to take on the kids. And I can't do it alone," Aimee all but sobbed.

Madison pulled her close as she cried. She felt bad for her best friend knowing she was going through so much.

***
Aimee looked up as Raf walked towards her. He sighed. "Look. Fletch asked me not to tell you. And he's my friend."

"I'm your sister. You broke my trust. Fletch is the love of my life. He may die. I don't even know what type of cancer he has."

Raf pulled his sister into an empty room. He sighed. "Look,This isn't about you or me. It's about Fletch. He's the one who's going through this right now. We have to be there for him."

Aimee rolled her eyes. "I wanted to be there for him. But you both stopped me by keeping this secret," she said as she turned and walked off.

But could Aimee forgive her brother for keeping a secret this huge from her?
