"So if you don't mind, I'll walk that line
Stuck on the bridge between us
Gray areas and expectations
But I'm not the one if we're honest, yeah
But I wanna sleep next to you
And I wanna come home to you
I wanna hold hands with you
I wanna be close to you" -Talk Me Down

"What? What is it dad?" I asked getting more and more impatient by the minute.

"She... has cancer." I heard dad gulp.

I felt my heart sink at those words.

Cancer is a really bad sickness. I never thought that mum would actually have it.

She is so careful of herself. My eyes started to well up and tears threatening to come out.

I couldnt lose her. No, I cant.

I know that there is a cure for it. But its expensive, very. And even if I am a well-known pshyciatrist.

I am not sure at all if it would be enough for chemo.

If only I could do something, I would.

Maybe I could kill for mum to be cured.

If only....

I let a tear drip down my face but I quickly wiped it away.

I could find a way. There must be.

I know there is.

"Wh-Where is mum now?" I stuttered.

My dad sighed and told me they were still in the hospital.

"I uh, need to go. I'll call you as soon as I can." I said and the line went dead.

"So, your mum has cancer?" I heard Ash say from behind me.

How could she possibly have heard that?

One of her fxcking abilities maybe.

I felt anger and rage bubble inside me, she dosent have the right to have heard that.

"You dont have the right to eavesdrop." I said turning my head to face her.

She just grinned like an idiot and chuckled deeply.

"You do know I can help you right?" She said while fisting her hands.

How? Oh for petes sake she cant.

"Yeah. And how exactly?" I said as I sat down the chair and a tear left my eye without me knowing it.

"Well, I have a lot of money, I stole it. Its hidden with me." She said while looking at me devilishly.

I cant trust her. Shes evil and manipulative. I just- cant.

"As if I'll believe you. Whatever. I need to go." I said as I stood up angrily and walked back to the elevator.
