Boop!

9.

Papa and I drive to the hospital, so I can visit Darby. We always have updates, and this one was a HUGE one.

"I need Darby!" I say to Nurse Cora.

"Sure, she's in room 356 now."

"Thanks Cora!"

"You're welcome!"

"DARBY!!" I tell as my papa and I rush into her room.

"What sweetheart?" Darby says sleepily.

"Update!"

"But, isn't our weekly update is on Tuesday?"

"Yeah, but this is important!"

"Okay, shoot."

"My mamma kicked me out."

"WHAT?!"

"I came out to her, and she just fell apart. She told me to pack my stuff and leave. She said I wasn't her daughter anymore. She said I was stupid. Oh, and she also told me how she never wanted to see my 'stupid gay' face ever again!" I say in just a couple of breaths. I start to cry, and Darby pulls me in close.

"I'm so sorry!"

"Me too!!!" I weep.

"You can crash with me, I'm going home on Thursday!" She remembers that her hospital stay is over.

"Really? Thank you Darby!" I say. I turn to Papa and he nods.

"Hey, I'm Steven, Ryann's dad." He introduces himself.

"Hi, I'm Darcie, but I hate that name, so you can call me Darby." Darby says. I smile as Papa and Darby shake hands.

"Where is you mom?" She asks me.

"Why?"

"I want to kill her."

"Haha! Very funny. But I don't want you to get arrested for murder!" I'm not joking. I literally would be fine with it, except for the fact that if Darby got caught, she'd go to jail. But, I kinda want to kill my mamma. Sorry, Sharen, not mamma.
