It felt like we lost everything

A few days later mom's MRI reports came. We were all prepared for the reports to show that mom is suffering from stage zero or one. The worst scenario we imagined was her to be on the second stage. But the reports showed something else, last stage. Stage 4 it was.

I saw my world fading away right in front of me. I sat there in silence. My eyes fixed to the dark spot in the corner of the room, tears continuously rolling down my face. I wasn't able to control them. I wasn't able to stop for a single second. Every moment I spent with mom flashed before my eyes. Every single time I disobeyed her made her cry. Every moment when she held me in her arms, whenever I'd be mad she'll be making my favorite food for me. Every single moment I spent with her kept flashing before my eyes all night. I wished to re live all the moments, regretted all the bad things I did to her or when I decided to talk back or just ignore her. I wanted to go back in time and re live all those moments again and mend all my mistakes. All of us have hurt her so much.

There were times when I and mommy only would be at home and we would watch TV, eat our favorite foods and go shopping were one of my favorite memories. Whenever I took a break from crying those moments flashed before my eyes making me cry again. I was a crying like a little baby who just wants to be in the arms of her mother and nothing else. I want to run to her put my head on her lap and cry, just cry.

Meanwhile Aeesha walked in so I dug my head into the pillow so she won't see me crying. The more I tried to control myself the more I cried.

- Hey! Stop crying. Everything will be okay. Stop worrying. We'll get her treated and we'll pray for her and she'll be fine. - Aeesha

But nothing helped me calming down. That night was so painful Abra, so painful; my soul was wrenched, my body was torn into pieces abra.
