Out of time

Coma

My parents were in their room. Crying. They were no longer drunk. They had tried a million times to apologize but evreyrime they tried to get close to me I backed away. But everything inside told me not to tell anyone. I loved my parents I knew if I told anyone they would be taken away from me.

We're driving to the hospital right now. No one has said a word. We're going to see my brother and get more tests. I also am getting started on more chemotherapy.

"Hi. What can I do for you guys today?" The secretory asked. "Hi we're here for mellissas therapy. And to see chase." My dad stated
"Ok so Mellissa first then chase." She half asked half commanded. "Actully we were wondering if we could just leave Amanda with the nurses and go to chase..." my mom said
"Oh ok. Well You can leave Mellissa here and chase will be in room 207 on floor 2."

"Ok thank you!" My parents said in unision as they started to walk off. I sighed and sat down. About 10 minuets later Nurse Elise showed up.
"Hi! Will you follow me to you chemo?"
"Yup I'm ready"

We walked down a couple hallways with twist and turns. Until we got to a familiar room. It was the one I was diagnosed in.

I sat down on the bed as she hooked up the IV to me. It hurt a little bit but Elise was comforting me. She made me feel warm. I wished she was my mother. As the IV continued I started tuning in to the story she was telling me. "So anyways I'm gonna be going into foster care soon. I'm very excited eccepically since I found out my husband has been having an affair with another woman.. I am not sure who yet but I'm currently in the process of divorce..."
"Oh I'm sorry" I stated
"It's nothing you did dear." She plainly stated
She scanned me. "Those bruises are new... how'd you get them?" She asked
"Oh I uh I fell down the stairs" the machine buzzed. Elise pulled the IV out an told me to wait while she got some doctors in the room. They started taking me to multiple Rooms for different test. This took about an Hour.

Those doctor sighed as he looked over the tears
"Can you get her parents?" He asked Elise. She looked over the sheet and her face went red them sad. I was scared I don't know what was happening. Elise walked out and returned a few minuets later with my concerned parents. The doctor had them sit down.
"Well" he started. Elise started to cry and then left the room.
"I'm sorry to say but Mellissa has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. It is starting to move to the skeletal system." He announced
I couldnt beilive it. My parents started getting ready eyed as I just sat in shock. "I'm really sorry. We will need to take immediate operations. If we don't that just gives her less time." He said
"Less time?? How much longer does my baby have?" My mother croaked.
"At most.......... 10 months" I curled up into a ball. 10 MONTHS???. My parents both hugged me. "Because of the operataions the next 10 months this will be ur bedroom" I started to cry even more. "I'm really sorry for what happened" the doctor ended.

Chases POV
I can hear everything. I just can't move. Can't talk. I cannot do anything. I'm in a coma. "I'm very sorry" my dad continued. My mom said her sorry to. Then I heard a familiar voice. Mel.
"You will never beilive the day that I've had" she cried. I so badly wanted to jump up and hug her. I tried my best to but I couldn't. "So apparently it's stage 4 cancer now. I've already had about 5 operatations in 3 months. It's been three months already. You've been in this coma for three months." She cried even harder. "They're gonna pull the plug! Since you've shown no sighns. But I know your still in there you have to be. I only have 8 month left 😭"

I felt so bad. I loved her so much and now she might be gone. I couldnt help it. I was about to die and she was about to die. Then I felt it. A tear! My tear! Yes this was it they are not gonna pull it.

Mellisa pov
As I explained I saw it! A single tear! He was saved. "DOCTOR!!!" I screamed a bunch of doctors came in to see he was crying. They immediately started to work on him. I was so happy

2 months later

I sat on my bed coloring a picture while Elise stuck an IV in my arm. A couple of my opersations had failed. I was almost due. I had been living here for a little but I still went to some days of school. Those were the worst. Amanda bullied me. Not a shocker though.

Elise took the IV out of my arm. All of a sudden. I felt dizzy, woozy. I wobbled before everything went black.

Chases POV
I awoke. I didn't know how. I just woke up. It took my eyes a second to adjust. I looked around I was in a hospital. There were flowers and balloons all around. Some said happy birthday. I missed my birthday but even worse I missed Mellissas birthday. I layed around but gen I heard yelling. Someone was being rushed to another room while doctors screamed WERE LOSIN HER!! It didn't take me long to realize it was Mellisa. I wasn't gonna lose her.

not today
