1 week later

"GOODMORNING beautiful girl"! I exclaimed with excitement.  I was baking myself some Pancakes. "Hey I miss you". I smiled as I set up the phone so that she could see me. "I miss you toooo. It's okay though only three more weeks".

"How was last night's show"? I asked as I placed the spatula under the vegan pancake lifting it slightly to see if it was cooked from the bottom. I saw pancake goop leaking so I let it cook longer. "It was amazing, everyone was great. I am getting tired".

"Heyyy Y/n, hurry up cause Billie is getting bored of me already". I saw Zoe in the background of the online video call. "As if". Billie shook her head at Zoe's accusations. "I could never get bored of youuu". I liked how free she seemed with Zoe. "Plus you're pretty great Zoe". finally flipped the pancake. "Y/n". I turned around seeing Sandy with Arlo's leash in his hand.

"You never opened your gift". She stated handing me the neatly wrapped present. "Girl where has that been"? I turned around but not after I placed the pancake on a plate. "It was under your bed, woouldn't want it getting it robbed again". I furrowed my eyebrows. "What"?

She just handed me the present. I tore that shit up and as soon as I saw the Apple logo my face lit with happiness. "NO FUCKING WAY, SANDY WHAT THE SHIT"! I yelled jumping around until I jumped into her arms, and well obviously she couldn't hold me up. We both fell into the ground she yelled for me to get off. "Thank you, thank you". I hugged her and eventually let her up.

"You see this shit Eilish"? I showed her the newest laptop from apple. "Girl I knew about it". She flipped her short blonde hair which looked silly since there was so little hair left. "Thank you so much". I smiled at Sandy who just brushed me off. "I'm taking the pups on a walk". I waved goodbye as she walked out of the house with both leashes in hand.

"We're gonna go shoot a little interview later today".

"You excited"? I asked as I loaded my pancakes with syrup. "Not really but I have to". Zoe hugged her from behind. "It'll be okay hopefully it's short".

"Anyway, what are you up to today". Seeing her smile through the camera ignited those same feelings of happiness and butterflies in my body. "Just a couple people today. I see Marco today so I'm happy about that".

"Oh I also figured out a melody". I shurrged puring my lips, I felt proud. As I said I've never been creative but I just had to for her. "Oh yeah"? I nodded softly placing a bite of pancake in my mouth. I closed my eye sat the taste. It was damn good. "Show me it".

I swallowed the bite and wiped my mouth. It was a very slow melody, maybe too slow. But I like it. "I like it"! she jumped with joy. "Yeah you have to". I love making her roll her eyes.

The conversation continued for at least another hour but eventually she had to go stretch which she wanted me to stay on the call for but I knew it would only distract her. I also was running late for my people so I ran to their houses. I missed them, some more than others.

"Marco"! I yelled with joy. "Polo"! the same rough voice I remembered. "How are you feeling"? I asked as I walked towards the room where I heard him. "Not too good. My ankle is hurting again". I nodded to let him know I was listening.

In short he wasn't able to walk for very long distances. I felt like shit because maybe I could have prevented this. "Take that look off your face. It's not your fault". He scolded me, I mean he pointed his finger at me and everything. "I know but I could have helped you with some physical therapy and you would still be walking". I sat on is bed. "You're here now. Plus I'm getting older, this is normal. I've put it off for so long". he rubbed his hands on his thighs. "I'm getting older mija". I knew he hated the thought of death. I did too.
