No in freaking way guys. 10, 000 READS??? THIS IS CRAZY! OMG OMG OMG. Eh. I don't like it when people say that.

So then i decided to do an upload that i did not expect doing! Lol.

So one new exciting thing.

1) Yes, i am making a sequel to this book, (you will understand more when the book is done.)

                                           2 weeks later                             Ellie's POV

I watched as they chopped off my mother's thick, and heavy curls from her head. Her hair was scooped into a ponytail, long and tidy reaching all the way down her tailbone.

Seeing a pair of scissors, my mom started crying.

I held her hand tight. "It's okay. It'll all grow back. Everything is going to be alright." I said, swallowing a rough bump in my throat, and trying to fight back tears and puffy eyes.

She smiled slighty, still showing no emotion.

They sticked a needle in her arm too, and then hooking it up to an IV machine, and turning on the beeping monitor producing scary sounds.

I hated hearing that monitor. I felt like it would make a straight line, and a long beeping noise, and then see my mother dead.

I shuddered, and watched them continue their chemotherapy.

"This is the best cancer center possible. You'll be fine when you're done! Everybody that came here for treatment, left as survivors!" The cheery nurse exclaimed, dancing her way over to the instrument table.

"Its a hospital. Not a dancing center." I said in a hoarse voice, then realizing what i said, clamped my mouth with my hands and shut my eyes. I got so snarky after finding out the news.

"Sorry." I added.

The nurse smiled. "It's okay honey. I could only imagine what you're going through."

"Excuse me." I said getting up, not wanting to watch another shot enter my mother's skin and listen to the monitor. I could feel the tears swell up.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Honey, were you okay?" Mom asked, looking worried.

"Yeah." I forced a smile. "Just needed to get a drink of water"

NoShe nodded, and let the nurse take the stethescope off her beating chest.

"Your heartbeat is a wee irregular. But you just got injected with fresh fluids that will calm down everything. We'll take another test in a bit, and Doctor Raymond should be here soon." She said, picking her clipboard from the desk and leaving.

"Thanks." My mother mumbled, losing her peppy voice to stupid cancer.

~~~~~~~~~~

Niall walked in, cradling Eli in his arms.

"How are you honey?" He asked, sitting by her side, and let Eli hug his weak mother.

She smiled fakely. "Better." 

The door squeaked, and we all craned our necks to see Doctor Raymond strut in, and set down his clipboard on the table, face us and smile.

"Why are you smiling? My mom has cancer. Control your happiness." I blurted out again, then clamped my hand over my mouth.

Niall gave me a stern look, along with mom's  NOT AGAIN look.

"Sorry." I uttered, burying my head in Eli's bushy blond hair.

He smiled. "It's okay, Ellie."

"But i am very glad that i have all of you together. I need to tell you all some important news, that may need to include the whole family."

I braced myself, shaking, and wanting to scream, run away, and cry under my pillow.

"So as you all know, Juliet has Gastric cancer, or stomach cancer. The cancer is getting more severe, and spreading tumors around the whole stomach. If so, they could spread to parts essential for survival. So, we decided that we would have Juliet undergo a major surgery next week to reduce some severities, and hardern the chemotherapy and add more medicine."

We were all speechless. I was sure my mom was going to die now.

I wish cancer would get cancer and die.
