That One Secret

One, My Secret Is Out

  Two years ago I was diagnosed with stage two brain cancer. Since then I decided to start a YouTube channel to get away from my illness. I live with my mom, dad, and little sister Agnes.

Dad's always at work and Aggie is in school. Mom stays home and takes care of me. I can take care of myself just fine, but she always brings me my medicine because sometimes I forget.

Or when I get really bad headaches, she helps me get through them.

Now two years ago the doctors said I wouldn't live long. I've gone through chemotherapy. It got rid of the cancer for about a year and came back just recently. This time worse.

I've been given, at most, a year to live. Maybe more, I don't know.

I don't like to think about it though. I feel blessed for being able to make it this far. I mean who knows, I might not be able to live to the day I drink. But I'm grateful for the time I've had.

My phone beeped and the screen turned on.

I looked over at it and smiled at the little reminder.

  Record some Cube!!! :):):):)

I smiled and turned on my PC.
As it turned on, I set up my mic and shut my bedroom door. Mom, dad, and Aggie all knew that if my door was shut I needed quiet time.

  I logged into my Minecraft, Westcoast being my username.

West is my last name. Celia Eliza West. Everyone on YouTube called me West or Celia.

I didn't mind either.

I logged into Cube SMP. It was currently season two and I just joined recently.

The loading screen came and went and soon enough I was inside my temporary base.

Almost instantly I was greeted by four people.

Graser10: Hey West!
Grapeapplesauce: Hi West.
Dfield: hey hey hey.
Kiingtong: hello Celia .
Westcoast: Hi guys!

I smiled at their greetings. Tofuugaming was also on but I'm assuming he's afk.

I made my way towards spawn where Will, Kiingtong, was building.

I know him and a few others have been building spawn. His character turned around and he saw me. He started doing a punching motion as if to say hello. I giggled and do the same.

Just as I was about to start recording, Graser typed something in chat.

Graser10: anyone up for TS?

I quickly replied with a sure along with Grape and Will. Mark, Dfield, said he couldn't.

I joined there team speak.

"Hey hey hey." Graser said.

"Hi Grase." I said.

"How is everyone?" Will asked.

Everyone replied with a good, although mine was a lie. I had a terrible migraine today.

"Is anybody up for playing never have I ever?" Graser asked.

"Yeah. I guess I could." Grape said.

"Sure. Why not." Will said in his British accent.

"I'm supposed to be recording Cube, but I'm sure my subs won't mind a collab." I shrugged.

"Alright. I'll send over the ip..." We all got the IP address.

I quickly joined only to be inside of Will's character.
