"Your brother needs to know *cough*"
I started crying. I was at my gma house with my mom and my gma just got done telling me a life changing problem, she has lung cancer.
"Nana why ain't you tell me sooner"
I was balling my eyes out.
"Cause i thought ill be okay but i don't have much longer left baby"

"Girl if you don't stop"
We was at the school and Leila was working on her dance moves for poms and she was pushing me
"Shut up"

I picked up my phone
"Hello?"
"Preston *sniff*"
I looked at the phone and seen Lauren name, I instantly got heated
"Lauren whats wrong? You straight?!"
She signed
"No its, its nana Preston"
I scrunched up my face and sat on the bench
"Wassup? Whats wrong"
"Nana, nana has lung-she has lung cancer"
Everything went in slow motion and my mind stared racing. I was stuck and most importantly not breathing, Leila ran over to me and was talking but i couldn't hear. Everything was gone, i felt nothing and heard nothing. I was empty.
