*Niall’s P.O.V.

“Hey mom,” I said as I saw her in bed. She looked up, her eyes lighting up as she saw me.

“You’re here,” she whispered.

“Yeah mom, I’m back,” I told her, looking out the window of her bedroom into the view of my hometown…Mullingar, Ireland.

Yesterday, after Alondra stopped by it wasn’t very long before my father called. He had explained that my mom had an accident. The doctor checked up on it and it seemed like it was something bad. I quickly called the school to explain why I wasn’t going to be in school for a couple of days. They took my excuse then I called I called the airport for the next flight to Ireland.

Once here, I got a cab and came straight to my mom’s house. My dad was gone when I got there. Ugh, having parents that are separated sucks. They were married, but then about two or so years ago they got divorced and neither would tell me why. I sighed before entering my mom’s room. She stirred and opened her eyes, looking at ne, she smiled.

“I’m so glad you’re here,” she said. I walked over and sat on the edge of her bed.

“What happened?” I asked her.

“I was outside working on the garden, like I do every Thursday when I suddenly fainted,” she said.

“What did the doctor say?” She looked down and tears formed in her eyes.

“I have cancer,” she said. I felt like everything was crashing down around me.

“Mom I-”

“Don’t say anything, it’s okay, but there’s something I need to tell you,” she said.

“What is it?”

“I want you to know that I love you and I’m so sorry if my separation from your father hurt you,” she said.

“Mom stop, why are you telling me this?”

“The doctor said that because they caught it late, they might not be able to stop it. Right now I just need everyone to be open and truthful.” My gaze fell to the floor and before I could stop myself I said, “Then there’s something I need to tell you.”

“I know you’re not my real mother,” I told her. Her eyes widened in surprise like she wasn’t expecting me to say that, then she sighed.

“You’re father told you?” she asked, or maybe stated, I couldn’t tell.

“No, but after I found out he had no choice but to tell be the truth.”

“How’d you find out?” She asked.

“Harry…my half-brother,” I told her. She lifted her head and sat up.

“You know who you’re real mother is?” she asked.

“Yeah, her name was Anne, but she died two years ago,” I told her. My mom started shaking and I got worried. I asked her if she was okay and all she kept whispering over and over again was “How could they.” I quickly got out my phone and hurried to call our family doctor and my dad.

After the doctor had checked my mom and put her to sleep did my dad come. I opened the door for him and he sat down on the sofa in silence. I sat across from him and sighed.
