As freen waited in the waiting room she had so many thought going through her head... she was scared to know what becky was thinking, she didn’t know why the nurse and doctor looked so scared, despite their calm voices.
freen wiped her sweaty palms on her jeans as she tried to stay distracted with the magazines in the waiting room.

Meanwhile, becky was in a room she had never seen before, her feelings were numb, she did know what she has to feel or does but what she did know ... she wasn't comfortable in the horrid hospital gown that was given to her.

Okay Ms, Armstrong ” the nurse started speaking but becky interrupted her
“call me becky.”
The nurse slightly smiled
“okay becky, what we need you to do is stay lying down on this table, we are going to put you inside of that machine there that looks like a doughnut.”
All becky could do is nod, she was speechless.


“You have to stay motionless for me so that way we can accurately get the correct results.”
Again, becky just nodded, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, what was coming wouldn't be good and she knew that.

After what felt like forever, becky was given her regular clothes back and she was sent back into the room she was previously in.

becky mumbled
“can my girlfriend come back here now?”

“Yes, I’ll go get ger”
the nurse responded as she shut the door to go get freen.


The second freen walked through the door becky was coughing and couldn’t breathe.
f

reen looked scared as she held becky hand and said:
“Baby, what happene, are you okay?”

she was looking at Becky with wide, teary eyes, trying to be strong enough because Becky was the weak one between them this time. She was the one who needed a shoulder to cry on, someone who can take care of her and Freen was ready to be that person because Becky was always there for her in her moments of weakness.
Yes, Becky is cold, mysterious and not good at using words to express her feelings, but she has always been warm embrace for freen, Becky was able to make freen feel safe.

becky started coughing again, this time covering her mouth.
freen wiped her tears as she looked down at becky hand
“becky... wh.. why are you bleeding?”

becky looked down
“ I just coughed that out.”

freen and becky both looked down at becky hand, it had small splotches of blood on it, enough to be noticeable, not that, that mattered.

"You ...you obviously ...shouldn’t be coughing up blood becky.
Freen said that with a horrified look in her eyes, her tears were falling uncontrollably.

Now the two of them locked eyes and freen is crying while Becky is calm, closing her fist on the blood in her hand and embracing her girlfriend with her other arm to calm her down... it was painful to see her girlfriend crying because of her... at the end, Becky took a deep breath and allowed some single tears to fall.
they both were sitting on the exam table crying when the doctor comes in with a solemn look on her face.

“Well rebecca, I think it’s safe to assume that you’re aware of what’s going on here. Unfortunately after looking at your CT scan, I have some very unfortunate news.”

freen bit back tears as he grabbed becky non-bloodied hand and squeezed it.
becky closed her eyes and braced herself for the bad news.

“After looking at your CT scan, we have become aware of the presence of what appears to be lung cancer cells. In order to be sure of the stage and the state that you’re in we are going to have to perform a biopsy and send some tissue samples to the lab.”

becky closed her eyes trying to calm herself and accept what her doctor said, she couldn’t speak.

“I know this is a lot to take in at the moment”
the doctor spoke as she could tell becky was at a loss for words.

All becky could manage to say was “When?”

The nurse finally spoke up
“When can we do the biopsy?”

becky nodded nervously, as she felt out of control of her body at the moment.

“We can do it today if you’re up to it; we sedate you and make a small incision between your ribs.”

freen looked over at becky and said while holding her hand:
“We have to do this today, are you up to it?! ... we've wasted enough time already”

“I completely agree, the sooner the better however” Dr. Selena said that while lookin at becky who was still closed her eyes.

“I’ll do it now”
becky squeaked out as freen leaned over and kissed her on the cheek.

“that's great, you two can wait in here while we get the room ready”
the nurse spoke softly as she walked out of the room and the doctor followed shortly after her giving the two girls a concerning smile.

“I don’t want you to die”
freen sobbed as becky held her against her chest.

“I won’t”
becky hummed back in the liveliest tone she could pull at the time.

“please fight becky”
freen breathily spoke out as she grabbed becky shirt in the fists of her hands and sobbed.
