Angels don't all wear ivory feathered wings, just like all heroes do not wear capes. They're latent to the world and maybe even that person. Their presence in the world alone is a blessing, so why inflict someone of a pain that isn't easy to live past? Questioning why all the time is not living correctly, just living is what was planned. Only a few realize that in their lifetime, Stephanie was one of them.
Junior high wasn't any different for Stephanie than the typical teenagers. Boys became nasty, pimples couldn't be popped, bodies developed, and peer pressure was in full mode. It wasn't until high school that Stephanie felt her life was going downhill, and that there was no journey up. She discovered a small lump on the right side of her breast and immediately told her mother. She had caught her breast cancer in an early stage, immediately turning to chemotherapy. Chemotherapy drained Stephanie's soul for awhile, she was beginning to want to give up. The faith her mother invested into her made her push on and continue being strong for herself. Stephanie's journey was far from over, but she got through chemotherapy. Her head left with dark ringlets of curls, a short and styled pixie cut. She often looked in the mirror and became insecure of her appearance with short hair. Though her hair did not define her innocent beauty, she wore wigs just to make herself feel better. Something about the wigs made her teenage life nostalgic, something she never wants to lose apart of.
She often kept her cancer story to herself these days since she has been intermittent for years now. Bringing up a stressful medical past like that was something Stephanie strayed away from. She didn't want to relive her past or think much about it because she is proud to be who she is today. God really made her soul angelic and invested his pure time into Stephanie. Time that he knew she would use to help others and be a spirit in a room drowning of misery. She was always sunshine to anyone she was around, whether or not she was okay or not, that was just her personality.
Andre wasn't sure how to approach the conversation he wished to have with her before he saw Stephanie's real hair. He also did not want his curiosity to affect anything they had. He understood she has her right to her privacy, but he never expected her to hide something like that. Andre sucked on his bottom lip before pivoting his head to look over at Stephanie. Her mouth full of spaghetti, he clenched his jaw before placing his plate into the coffee table and taking a deep breath.
"Steph, yesterday Cari was telling me that she didn't like going with Reb." This was hard for Andre to fathom all over again, his throat smothered with a waft of pressure. Stephanie focused on what Andre was telling her, beginning to be concerned already. She would have thought Cari would tell her before him. "She told me some stuff that I really think you should know, and take action on. I wanted to tell you yesterday but I couldn't even stomach it all in one, I didn't know how to present it to you."
"Well tell me." She whispered, placing her plate onto the coffee table. Her hands fell into his hands in her lap and she preyed on her lips anxiously.
