B R A D

 I was on my way to my work at the office when I received a call from the hospital nurse, she said that my Mum is looking for me. I quickly turned around and informed my boss that I'll be late, luckily he gave me permission to do so.

 My heart is beating fast, there's been a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach for a few days now and I still don't know what it means. I drove as fast as I can and ended up at the very back of the parking lot, I grabbed my keys and ran out.

 I was panting when I got inside, the nurse at the desk informed me that Mum's doctor is already on her room. When I got in, I saw him looking at her while she's gently asleep. "I thought she's looking for me?" I asked, looking straight at him. "She was, but then she fell asleep" he replied.

 I just sighed and sat on the couch.

 "Brad, I think we need to talk." the Doctor uttered. I looked at him and knew that the worst news is still on it's way. I got up and followed him to his office. I closed the door behind me and he started talking.

 "I don't think there's any gentler way I can say this, your Mum is already on Stage 4. The therapy isn't working on her"

 My heart dropped .... but to my own surprise, I found myself kind of not taken aback. I guess I have accepted it, I have accepted the fact that I'll lose the most important person in my life. "So when is it?" I asked, voice starting to break.

 "Two months"

 I felt tears starting to gather, I walked out and walked back to my Mum's room. I sighed and sat beside her bed. "I'm really sorry .... I wasn't able to help" I whispered and started crying legit.

  The thing is, I don't have a lot of friends. There's not much of a someone I can hold on to at this moment. All I have is myself. My phone then started ringing, it's Elizabeth.

 "Hey" I said, my voice had changed a lot. I was crying that's why it's breaking t a lot of points. "Oh my God Brad are you alright?" she asked. "I don't know" I replied, starting to break down even more.

 "You're at the hospital?"

 "Yes"

 "I'll go there"

 "Please"

 I quickly got dressed and left my apartment, leaving mine and Brad's mess from last night anbd drove to the hospital. He needs me now and I can tell that he's hurting. 

 "Oh my God" I thought to myself when I saw him crying alone at the corner. I rushed in and helped him get up. He hugged me tightly and we fell to the couch. "Everything's gonna be fine" I whispered into his ears while rubbing his back.

 He sat on my side and is still sobbing.

 "Your Mum is strong enough Brad, she'll get through it"

 "But the Doctor said she only have two months to live"

 "We'll pray for her okay? I'll pray for her every single day if I have to. She'll get through this .. look at me ... you have to be strong" I uttered and started at him. He started wiping his tears and I hugged him once again.

 Seven months ago when my father died, he was the one who's there for me. And now that he's going through an almost similar situation, I'll make sure to stick around by his side.
