    Aloha, Im Nelly J. I like to write in the little free time I have. I wrote this story about 2 years ago but decided to edit it and post it here, on wattpad about 5 or 6 months ago. I really hope you enjoy, Ive worked really hard on this and hope you like it.

 Tears ran down my cheek as I watch my dad lay helplessly on the hospital bed. “Please don’t leave us,” I sobbed. I knew he couldn’t hear me, but I wanted him to know that.

       As I wiped my tears with the Kleenex’s on his bed side table, my mom came through the door with my little twin brothers, Marc and Mason. They are only 7 yet they know and understand everything that’s going on with the situation were in. My mom looked stressed,(She works as a D.A) like she had a hard case at work, But I knew why.

    “Elle can watch the boys for a second” My Mom asked

 “Sure” I said walking over to grab the boy’s hands. Mom walked in the room then turned around and closed the door. We walked to the nearest vending machine in silence.

“Do you guys want anything to eat” I say while digging in my pocket to pull out my 6 dollars in quarters. We’ve been here so many times that I’m use to keeping change. They both shook their heads “no”.

“Okay, Well it’s almost time for school” I say glancing at my digital watch I got for my 14 birthday. I grabbed the boys’ hands and moved them toward my dad’s room. I knocked rapidly on the door. My mom opened the door her eyes wet and red, her cheeks puffy.

      She walked past us in silence. As we all made our way to the exit of the hospital mom spoke.

“The doctors says his cancer is getting worse”
