Cheryl's P.O.V.
My eyes shot open and I look around. How did I got here in our room. Was it just a dream. Is my Max alive.I shot out of the bed and ran to my daughter's room. It was just a dream.
"Maxene!" I opened her room and the smile on my face faded. She's not here. Maybe she's downstairs.
I rushed downstairs and hear clattering by the kitchen making me grin.
"Baby! Maxene!" I walked in the kitchen to see me mam. What is she doing here.She turns to us and gave us a sad smile making me frown.
"You're up early. Here have some breakfast."
"Where's Maxene? She's not in her room."I find it strange that mam is staring at us like I've gone crazy. I'm just asking where my daughter is.
"Mam, where's my daughter. Did she went out..its too early for her to be out."
"Cheryl-"
"Babe!" I turn and saw Katy with blotchy eyes making me frown. I don't understand what is happening. Where's Maxene.
"Katy, where's Maxene?" She let's out a shaky breath and slowly walk towards me.
"Babe, sit down for a sec." She whispered as she touched my hand but I yanked it away. I'm getting frustrated.
"No! Tell me where Max is."
"Pet, Max is gone."
"What do you mean? Where is she.."
"Chez..." I look at Katy and saw tears daring to come out. What the f*ck is happening.
"Max is dead" I think my heart stopped. No ot can't be, that was just a dream. Max is alive, she can't die.
"When?"
"Last night..She had a car accident." I felt empty and frozen. That wasn't a dream.. It can't be. She can't leave us. She can't die.
"Ba-"
"That's not true. You're talking sh*t Katy." I let out a soft giggle but they seem serious.
"I'm sorry..." Her tears fell alongside with my heart. No, I don't believe her. My daughter's alive and I will find her.
"That's not true, I'm going to find her." I stormed out of the kitchen and ran out of the front door to be met by flashes and questions all fired to me and I was rooted to the ground.
Why are they here?
Cheryl, How do you feel?
What can you say about the accident?
I took in every question and is all pointing out that Max is dead.
I felt hot tears in the back of my eyes as I felt an arm around my waist pulling me back inside and as soon as the door was closed, I broke down falling down the floor sobbing my heart out.
How can she leave us. She promised that she won't. Why isn't she here.
I felt arms around me lifting me up and carrying me upstairs. The house seened quiet and I hated it. I f*cking hate it.
Katy puts us down on the bed and I immediately curled up into a ball crying my heart out. I've lost her again and this time, I won't see her forever.
Katy's P.O.V.
I watch as Cheryl burst in tears, crying out Max's name. I hate what I see, but I can't really blame her. I too is the same state as hers."My daughter's not dead!" She cries over and over again breaking my heart even more. She won't accept it. She refuses to believe it.
Tears also starts to fall from my eyes. Cheryl's sobs just reminds me that Max us totally gone, she's not coming back. She might be somewhere in the skies now, Maybe watching over us. And I'm sure if she's looking down to us right now, she won't be happy about it.
Cheryl's sobs soften which made me look at her as she sat up straight.
"I get it, I'm still asleep. And this is all a dream." She turns at me with tears crawling down her cheeks and grabbed my hand.
"Wake me up" She says as she tries to make me slap her. Cheryl's got it bad.
"Wake us up Katy please." She started to force me to hit her which I refuse as I try to withdraw my hand. Then she started crying again started hitting herself so I grab both of her hands locking it beside her.
"Stop it!" I yelled and that's where she crumbled. She wilt as she fell in my arms sobbing her heart out.
"K-Katy, I-I hate m-my life.." I didn't respond. What would you say to a person who hates their life. Instead, I held her tight in my arms cradling her. I've never seen Cheryl gone mad like this before and its scaring me. It scares me that it might get worse.
------------
We stayed that position for hours until Cheryl fell asleep. She got tired of crying and she needs to rest.
Now, I lie here beside her a small gap between us. She has a small frown on her face as she sleeps not the usual smile I saw everyday when Max is still here with us. She also has tear tracks on her face. Now, I don't know how will I leave her after two weeks.I'd be having the continuation of the tour in two weeks and I don't know if I can leave her. She needs me.
"I hate seeing you like this.." I whispered as I stared at her. Then I picture Max in the same position.And I remembered how I stared at her the night she came home. She looks peaceful. But then it suddenly faded making a lump form in my throat.
Suddenly, my phone rang from the bedside table so I stood up and take it seeing Kimberley calling. So I answered it.
"Hello"
"Hey Kat. I'm just ringing you to tell you that Max has been transfered in a funeral home. Tomorrow is the first day of her wake."I try to controlmy emotions cause hearing tjis just makes it so real.
"Oh.Uhm..Okay"
"H-How's Cheryl?" I let out a deep sigh and glance at my Cheryl as she sleeps peacefully.
"S-She's not accepting it..She keeps insisting that Max is still alive that this is all a dream.."
"I'll pick you up tomorrow, I'll try and talk to her."
"I'm scared Kim, I think she's gone mad."
"Don't worry okay, I'll talk some sense to her tomorrow. Just please understand her babe. She lost Max before and now she completely lost her. It will definitely make her depressed."
"I know, I just..I hate seeing her like this."
"I'm sorry love but we can't do anything about it. Just give her time and she'll soon accept it."
"I hope so.."
---------
I'm here in the front room arguing with myself about calling Jay to postpone the tour. I can't f*cking leave Cheryl here alone. She needs me.I left Cheryl upstairs figuring that she won't be waking up any sooner. Joan left to go to the girls at the funeral homes. So it leaves just me.
After hours of thinking, I finally came to a decision. So I grabbed my phone and dialled Jay's number.
"Hello"
"Jay, its me."
"Oh Katy...How are you?"
"Not fine, Anyway I have a huge favor to ask and its important."
"What is it?" I don't know what will he say or even if he will agree to it but I'm taking my chances.
"Can you please postpone the tour. For atleast a month." There's a long silence in the other line making me sigh.
"Please Jay, My girlfriend needs me and I can't lea-"
"Okay"
"Okay what?"
"I'll postpone the tour. I understand what you're going through" A huge wave of relief washed over me.
"Thanks Jay."
"No problem. Oh by the way, I'm sorry for what happen Kat."
"Thanks for understanding" I said before we said our goodbyes and hung up. Npw, I cantake care of Cheryl and be with her althroughout this.
