Truly Beautiful

Two: I'm out of sightout I'm out of mind

For the past three days I didn't go down stairs in the morning. I hid in my room doing nothing beside hugging myself. When it struck twelve a.m I head toward the bathroom to be stopped by James.

“Where have you bin?" he asked his words barely being a whisper.

“My room." I said just as quiet.

“So the old out of sight out of mind thing hm? Well here's one for you for you, that doesn't work on people." he said in an ice tone.

“Don't" I said back “please just don't not right now,ok?" I asked him hopefully he will walk away.

“Let me see" he demanded.

Trying to play dumb I asked what he meant.

“You know what I mean let me see your wrist Willow. Now!" he yelled at me. I shook my head and he grabbed my left wrist. I let out a little yelp and the pain. Where they really that deep? “Dammit Willow why, why in the hell would you do this it's not right. My gosh your dad is going to kill you!" he yelled pulling back my sleeve to see the cut a going up and down them.

“Not before I do." I whisper but he must have herd.

“Oh no you did not just say that!" he yell back. I started to shake a tear slipped from my eyes. I herd a bedroom door open and I saw Jace come out. “What's going on?" he asked “The parents are going to flip if you make anymore noise." he looked at me then at James. “What did you do to her?" he asked James seeing that I was crying.

“More like what she did to her self." he said back and looked at my wrist.

Jace looked and touched my arm lightly. “Well then," he said and I didn't like his tone. Jace walked up to my parents bedroom door and started to beat his fist off of the it. “Wake up come see what you daughter did!" I tried to run but James put both arms around me and hugged me. My parents walked out of the room and come over to me Jace held up my wrist “See."

“Again, but why? Ok we're having a talk now." said my dad

“No, no we are not!" I yelled. “This right here is not your business ok so just leave me the hell alone!" and I walked away and slammed my door laid down and cried myself to sleep.

I woke up to someone knocking on my door. I walked over and opens my door standing there was Aron. “Get ready lil sis we're going somewhere." he told me

“Um you might but I'm not I would like to stay put." I said back

“Oh so you don't want to see your sister?" and with that I slammed the door and said hold on. I walked into my bathroom and took a shower and scrunched my hair. I walked into my room taking not thinking taking out a tank top and jean shorts.

I walked down stairs and said I was ready.

The car ride was what seemed shorter than the other night.

My dad asked what room Maria was in and they told us. When we finally got into her room Maria yelped with joy. I ran over to her her and gave her a hug afraid to let her go we sat there for a minute. When I finally let go I never looked away. Maria laughed after a few minutes and looked at me. “Willa I'm not going to disappear I'm fine." She said, Maia called me buy my nick name, they must didn't tell her.

“Mi," my dad said “we need to tell you some thing." my eyes flash to my dad and he looked down. For about a minute none spoke till Maria cleared her through. Aron looked at Maria and sighed heavily. “Mi the doctor told us you have lung cancer" he told her. He would be the one to say it, he's the strongest out of all of us in the family. Marias eyes widen and her mouth open. “I knew this guys they told me" she said, and took my hand. She looked down at are clamped hands and her jaw clenched so tightly I though it might brake. “Everyone leave beside Willow" Maria said through clenched teeth. When everyone was gone she slapped me so hard I rocked on the heels of my feet. She grabbed my left wrist, “What in the hell is this" throwing it up to my face. “Are you fucking stupid or something, what was it this time?" she asked harshly.
