The Bucket List

Chapter 7

The Bucket List Chapter 7: When my mom picked me up the car ride was silence. We arrived at our house, it looked bigger, or maybe that’s just me being stuck in a hospital most of my life. I sprinted up the stairs with all the energy I had left, like we just bought a new home and I wanted to see my new room. I walked inside. The walls were baby pink, and the furniture was white with some hot pink blankets. I love it. I had a huge window that looked out to the city. My room had a balcony. For a moment my though of cancer, chemo, being terminal, everything went away. I had a real bedroom. Not a room with an uncomfortable mattress and machines around me. I fell on my soft bed and closed my eyes. I was taking in everything that happened to me. Good and bad. I grabbed my journal and wrote inside. The 2nd page out of 730 pages ;). I wrote under Little Things title. Date 2/3/13: Today I found out that I was terminal cancer and had 2 years to live. I am bummed but I accepted it. I decided to live my 2 years well and fun. I went to Starbucks for the first time. So I ordered water. I met a sweet boy named Harry, we didn’t treat me differently. I liked it. I like him a lot for the 5 hours with him. But, I can’t love him he will be crush if he finds out I have cancer and had 2 years to live. We will be best friends. I also had my own room, its pink. I am excited. I closed the journal and tucked it under my pillow. I went under the covers and fell asleep.
