Remission

Chapter 13

Parker P.O.V 

After a week in LA I was finally back in Baylor. I hadn't really talk to Harper that much since our date really. I called her after my meeting with John  and told her what it was about. She really didn't seem worried or interested which was weird. Then I called her again but only talked to her for like 5 seconds. She told me that she had a project for school and didn't have time to talk. So now that I'm back  I'm going to go to her house.

I had Ben and one other of my security guys drive me to her house but when I knocked on the door no one answer. "What now boss?" "Well there is only two other places where she can. Lets go to the coffee shop and if she isn't there then we can go to the second spot."  When we get tot he coffee shop I can see that is busy and there are bunch of young people in there but I really didn't care. I got out the car and walked in. The second I walked in I was like little fish surrounded by a bunch of sharks. "Parker can I have your autograph?, Can I have picture?, Parker will you go out with me?" "Okay every one need to back up."  I hear Ben yell at the crowd.  Him and the other guy start pushing the people so I can have room. "Listen up everyone. I need you all to leave I will be closing the store." Miss. Thompson yelled. With  in a few minutes everyone was out of the building except me and Harper's mom. She went locked the door and pulled the curtain down. "Does it ever get old?" She says to me with a smile on her face has she walks to table to sit down. "You get use to after awhile."  I say follow her and have a seat. 

"What can I do for you Parker?" "I was on wonder if you could tell me where Harper is? I went to our house and she wasn't there. I haven't really talked to in awhile and when I do  she either in a hurry or doesn't seem interested in talking to me."  Miss. Thompson had a sad look on her face. "Oh Parker." "What?" "She is going to kill me for tell you." "For telling me what?" Last week Harper got sick and we thought it was the flu so I took her to the doctor. Well given her history they did a scan of her body and the doctor found that the cancer was back." I literally felt like someone walked in and just shot me in the heart. " Parker she was going to tell you." Miss. Thompson says with a sadness in her voice and some tears falling down her face. "She was scared Parker. She wasn't sure if she could handle telling you." "Where is she now?" "Chemo."
