Leilani's Diary Entry: Tomorrow is Christmas, and I won't be spending it with Odell. He's going to the Christmas Party, while me and Omar decided to eat ice creams, and watch movies, all day. I know that's not how I wanna spend my Christmas, but with everything going on, I just think it's the right decision. Odell and me, still aren't on speaking terms. The crazy thing is, that he would call me, but then hang up once I would answer. Other than that, we kept our distance.

December 25, 2015

Odell

"Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!" Me and Chloe yelled as we both took a shot of tequila. It was her Christmas party, and I wasn't gonna sit around and pout, because I was missing Leilani.

I missed Leilani like hell, but I bet she's in a better place now, being with Omar and all.

To be honest, I don't even think we called our relationship off, we're just taking breaks. Leilani still love me, because I was her first love.

"Wanna take another one?" Chloe whispers in my ear.

"Hell yeah!" I take my shot glass, and poured some tequila in it.

"You know what? Fuck it!" I put the bottle up to my mouth and started chugging the liquor. Everyone around me was chanting, "Chug! Chug! Chug!"

This was more like a club, than a Christmas party. This party was definitely keeping my mind off Leilani.

Maybe, me and her aren't made for each other.

Leilani

Omar and me, sat there, our eyes glued to the TV screen, while eating our vanilla and chocolate ice cream.

I smiled, as we was watching my favorite movie. 'The Last Holiday.'

This is my favorite movie, because when the doctors told Georgia, aka, Queen Latifah that she had 3 weeks to live, she did everything in her will to live her life, and to get the man of her dreams.

That movie inspired me so much. I guess you can say, this is my last Holiday.

Tears filled my eyes as i thought to myself. 'I literally have exactly, one week left to live.'

I put my ice cream on the coffee table, and walked into the kitchen.

"Leilani, you ok?" Omar asked. Seconds later, he came into the kitchen.

"I-I can't do it Omar. I c-can't take this no more." I dropped to my knees and cried.

"Can't do what?" Omar asked dropping to floor with me.

Omar doesn't know, that I have cancer, because I never told him. "Leilani, what do you mean?"

He pulls me in close and wiped my tears away. "Is it about Odell? I swear on god, I'll beat his ass--" I cut him off, shaking my head.

"I-I'm dying," I cry again. "What?" He voice cracks as if he was gonna cry with me.

"I'm dying Omar! I-I have cancer! I'm dying! There's nothing I can do about this!"

I just wish I didn't have cancer. Fuck what I said before, about if I didn't have cancer, I would've never met Odell. Well I wish I never met him.

He's putting me through more hell than my actual disease.

"When d-did you get it?" Omar asked me. I sniffed,"I was diagnosed when I was Eight," I wiped my nose with some tissues, before continuing.

"My life has been hell since I've been diagnosed. I was told, November 31st, that I had 31 days to live, and here I am, with a week left. I told myself that I wanted to life my life. I wanted to do everything that I didn't have a chance to do because I was dying. I met Odell on December 1st, and I fell in love with him. I didn't know what I was thinking for trusting him so early. He told me that he'll never hurt me. Now, he over here breaking hearts like its his job. I'm just done, and I'm just ready to die."

Omar

Hearing Leilani's story made me sad for her. Christmas was a time for people to bring joy. In this case, she just cried.

"I just wanna die, I'm tired of this shit." I wiped her tears. "No, don't say that--"

"And why not!? I feel like there's no need for me to still be living here! My family don't love me, Odell left me, nobody is here for me." I lifted her head up.

"I'm here for you." I looked her straight in her eyes.

"You're just saying that, because you feel bad for me." I shook my head. "If I didn't love you, would you think I would be here? Anyone can say that they love you, but it takes a special person to actually show it."

She sighed.

"Leilani, I was here, when Odell broke your heart. More than once. You might love him, but really think. Do he love you like he say he do?" She shakes his head.

"I have nothing against Odell, but he shouldn't be treating you like this. Do he know you're dying?" I asked her and she nodded her head.

"See, this isn't right. He knows with everything you've been through, and he still treats you any type of way."

She turns her head and looks up at me. "I love you Leilani, and don't ever forget that."

She smiled, as we made eye contact. She leaned in, and so did I.

For the second time, my lips met her's, and this time, it was for more than three seconds.

I slowly pulled off and she giggles,"I love you too."
