No Control | A Jemi Love Story

Episode 96

Dianna woke up the next morning in the guest bedroom Joe and Demi had hearing Gabe screaming, she got off the bed quickly rushing into his bedroom seeing him sat up in his bed his hand clamped around his stuffed giraffe's neck as tears ran down his cheeks. She darted over to the bed picking her Grandson up in her arms.

"Daddy!" He screamed again clearly affected by how he had seen his father the night before. Dianna shushed the boy stroking his soft curls gently.

"Come on Gabriel, you'll make yourself ill." Dianna cooed moving a bunch of curls out of his eyes, Gabe just cried more sobbing into his grandmother.

It took about five minutes for Gabe to calm down completely but he was still a little emotional after seeing his father like he did. Dianna had begun to make breakfast for her Grandson hoping that he would eat something but when the time came he begun to get fussy again, he didn't like not having either of his parents around and missed his mom as it was.

"Come on Gabe you need to eat something." Dianna encouraged.

"I want daddy!" He wined pushing the plate of toast away from him, she sighed. He had always been closer to his father rather than his mother, it was just the bond they had. Dianna rubbed his back gently as he buried his head in his crossed arms.

"Daddy will be okay Gabe, he just needs the doctors help to tell him what's going on so they can make him better." Dianna stated.

"But the angels will take him away from me and mommy!" He exclaimed, Dianna frowned knowing he had probably heard from somewhere about what happens when someone gets too old or gets hurt, he was too young to have to worry about either of his parents dying. Both Joe and Demi were too old to die at the age they were.

"Gabe the angels won't take daddy away unless they really have to, Daddy is strong and he will fight through whatever is wrong. He has you to think about and mommy, it's going to be fine," Dianna stated not wanting to give him too much false hope but enough to make him feel better. Gabe just buried his head his arms more but Dianna looked towards the door when she heard it open. "Demi what are you doing here?" Gabe looked up then at his mother.

"Mommy!" He screamed getting off the chair running over to him, Demi smiled lifting him up in her arms kissing his cheek gently. "Are the angels taking daddy away?"

"Nobody knows yet baby boy but it only has to be really serious for that to happen, don't worry about it baby," Demi kissed his head this time. "Now eat your breakfast, we want you to be a big strong boy and you can't be if your don't eat." Gabe ran back over to the table allowing Dianna to help him up before she wondered over to her daughter.

"What are you doing here?" Dianna questioned giving her daughter a hug.

"I called my manager and told her I was coming home to see how Joe was, have you heard anything yet?" Dianna shook her head gently. "It's been too long, it's something serious isn't it." Demi ran her finger through her hair sighing.

"I'm sure he is fine Demi, just probably caught something and wasn't resting like he should." Dianna encouraged Demi nodding her head but she wasn't convinced. They soon saw Eddie appear in the door way but they couldn't read his expression.

"Demi can I talk to you?" Demi nodded her head gently again allowing her father to take her hand leading her into the living room where they both took a seat.

"Is he okay? Do they know what it is?" Demi asked scared of what his reply would be, she didn't like the idea of her boyfriend suffering.

"Demi Joe has cancer." Eddie announced his voice low as he watched his daughter's expression change until she broke down.
