A year earlier
As I walk out of the hospital room where my mom was staying. My mascara was running down my face as I cried that my mom had died. She had Leukemia and only had about a year to live, I spent most of my time hiding out with my mom because I knew that I had on one year to be with her. I was 17 when I found out that my mom only had a year to live I was devastated.
As I put my head on the table so know one could see how hard I was crying I soon heard a voice say
"Ell is that you," said the stranger.
I turned to see who it was I wiped away my tears and my running mascara. I soon found out that the person was Noah he was a friend from school that liked me, but I didn't feel the same about him. As I lifted my head I said, "hi Noah, what are you doing here"
"My grandma went to the hospital last night, and I just came here to see if she was all right. My mom and dad are in there right now," said Noah.
As I sat there silently for a will I said "I'm sorry about your grandma I hope she feels better."
"what are you doing here," Noah said "I'm here because my mom is in the hospital because of Leukemia, she just died a little bit ago that's why I'm here she is died N-Noah," as I said with tears rolling down my face. I got up slowly and started to cry hard to the point where I made sounds."Come here," Noah said as he put his arms out. I walked slowly to Noah. He grabbed me by the waist and held me against his chest. As I stated to calm down a little I lifted my head and said, "thank you Noah I mean it."I know you do Ell, I know" said Noah as he put his hands on my face he lend towards me and put his soft lips on mine after a few seconds I pulled away and said, "Noah what are you doing we are just friends I thought we agreed to that." As Noah looked at me all sad he said, "I know Ell I just had to."
"Noah can we just forget about that kiss," as I told him with tears still running down my face.
"I'm sorry Ell," as he said with a tear running down his face. "I know you are Noah, but I have to go and tell my father that mother died. I don't think he heard the news yet," as I told him I leaned in and gave him a slight kiss on the cheek he looked at me and said, "bye Ell I will see you in two weeks." As I slowly got into my car I started to think about the kiss that Noah gave me. He was so gentle when his lips touched mine. I started to think that I wanted him, but as I heard a loud banging noise at my car door window. As I snapped out of my thoughts I saw that it was Noah. I started to roll down my window as I said, "Noah whats wrong" as he had a smile on his face. He stopped and looked at his hand as he said, "You forgot your keys on the table." I told him thanks rolled up the window and was on my way to my dad's work.
I parked my car at my dad's work I walked into this big building and stopped at my dad's assistance and asked her if my dad was in his office. "No i'm sorry sweetie your dad just left the office about ten minutes ago you just missed him," Carrie said she looked at me and smiled. As I said that's okay and smiled saying," Goodbye Carrie see you later."
I left the building and went home to see if he was there. I opened the house door calling out, "FATHER ARE YOU HOME," I screamed. I walked in and saw my dad standing on the kitchen counter "dad what are you doing," as I asked him all confused.
"I'm trying to see if light blue or a light grey would look good on the kitchen walls," as he said still on the counter. I stopped and started to tear up as I looked at my dad and said, "dad mother is died" as I started to cry.
He stopped and got of the counter and came up to me to hug me as he tightly grabbed my head. I heard a sound and stopped hugging my father. As i looked up he started to cry as he said, "why did she have to go? She was happy and health she didn't need to go, God didn't need to take her away." I stopped and stared at my father and went in for a hug, as i fell into his arms I started to cry again saying, "dad it was not your fault mother will be happy now she is with God, and God is with us he loves us, and is doing what is right."
