My mum entered the room looking grave. She has told me to meet her in the living room, as she had something to discuss with me. I was nervous, as I had never seen her look so serious before. She was normally so laid back and optimistic.

"What is it Mum?" I asked.
"Honey, I'm sorry" She replied. "I have cancer."
All of a sudden everything froze. My chest got tighter, and my world slowed down.
"W..what do you mean?" I nervously said. "What's going to happen to you?"
"Look. I. I don't think I'll survive" my mum explained sadly.
Suddenly I burst into tears and ran out of the room. I couldn't breathe. My mum was the only person I had. I couldn't be left alone with my stepfather. Just thinking of what he would do is bad enough.

Sorry it's so short guys.
