Like snow in the summer

To be honest I didn't cry when I found out.
My mom, my dad and my older sister Chelsea.
I was surprised, Chelsea always ignored me so I thought she wouldn't care.

I honestly didn't think it was actually happening.
I didn't think I was actually dying. 
It wasn't until I over heard my doctor tell my mom in a hushed voice that chances of my survival were
"as rare as snow in the summer"
Then it really hit me that I was dying.
After that I still didn't fell sadness and despair, I didn't see life flash before my eyes.
I just felt sorry for my self, plain sorry.
Sorry like I could throw myself a whole pity party with pity cakes and pity-party games.

If I could meet myself from another persons view I would say.
"I feel very sorry for you. You've haven't even lived an exciting life"
And maybe even throw my self the Pity Party that I mentioned before.

My mom said that I will be living at Light-house bay with my Aunty until they find me a donor.
Which they likely won't.
So I'm going there to die, at least the last this I'll see is the ocean and some rude couple making out.

I woke up to the sound of my phones alarm.
A song about being overdosed on love or what ever by a foreign boy-band.
I got changed into an ugly pink cashmere sweater with equally ugly baggy track pants.
I didn't have time for a proper breakfast so I grabbed an apple as a make-shift, I didn't have time to brush my teeth either, I guess I didn't learn from all those lessons on the importance of teeth brushing From Barnie.

The taxi guy held my suitcase and I got into the back with just my ugly read backpack full of comics books.
Our house was only about and hour and a half away from Light-house bay so I didn't bring any snacks.

On the way I there I read Naruto comic books, Sasuke is a brat !
Sasuke was really annoying me so I listened to that foreign boy-band again.

My mom already paid the driver so at my destination he just dropped me off and left.
He left me on the streets of a beach town, there were seagulls and stalls of fruit and fish.
"Hey!"
A strange voice said .
I turned around to face a very tall, lanky boy.
He had very dark blue eyes but I could swear he had an Asian background, he was so tall it was intimidating I felt like a midget next year to him.
"You must be the new kid!"
"..."
"Hi my name's Lion"
He was obviously lying, I've never heard the name Lion before, but I decided to let it go because his glasses looked like they were about to fall off and he had awfully long, lanky limbs.
Pathetic excuse, but hey I'm showing an act of kindness.
"Hi I'm Mina"
I replied
"And yes I am the 'new kid'"
I literally said 'new kid' while making air quotation marks.

A group of boys called him and he left without saying good bye.
I don't think I like him very much , he seems annoying like that kid whose permanently happy, the type you see in movies and story books.
