Chapter 7
Kate POV
I've never quite belived in miracles until now.
Lily woke up from her brain surgery very alive and responsive which didn't make sense considering she had every odd againist her. She was a little confused at first why she was in the hospital and she also had a hard time remembering the events that took place before and during the car accident.
Although she was awake, Lily was still in a lot of pain and she could barely move an inch without crying. It took several days for her to earn some bit of stregnth and once things slowly came to her she felt better or at least somewhat better. I started to visit her everyday since we're on Winter break down and I enjoyed gossping and telling her all the things that has happen while she was asleep. It was almost like having old times back and I loved each moment of it. I miss my sister.
"What was it like?" I ask.
"Being unconcious?" Lily chuckled. "I don't know. I guess it was like taking a big nap."
"Some nap."
We look at each other and burst into laughter.
"Alright ladies." Mom interupted. "It's time to get some rest."
"But mom." Lily whine.
I frown. "She been resting for a while now."
"Yes, but your still in recovery and we can't bring you home until you are one hundred percent better."
I sighed and stood up from my seat next to Lily bed. I gave her a hug and a quick peck on the cheek.
"You will come back to tomorow, right?" She look almost worried.
I smiled. "You bet."
She gave a small grin and then I left the room.
Lily POV
I'm dying..
I can slowly feel my body shutting down. It hurts to breathe and my chest aches. Even if I had a chance to live, I'm not sure if I would want to continue on like this any longer. I am truly suffering.
I didn't tell my family though.
How could I? How could I explain the pain that I am feeling without breaking their hearts in a million pieces? I know they wouldn't want me to suffer, but I also know that they are so happy to see me awake. I just don't have the guts quite yet to tell them. So for now, I will fake a smile through all the pain and enjoy every last minute I might have with my family.
"Did you enjoy your time with your sister today?" Mom ask as she tuck me in for the night.
I nodded my head. "It was great. I wish she could of stayed longer."
"Me too baby."
She kissed the top of my head and lowered the lights just enough to dim the room slightly. I scooted over and she got into bed with me. I laid my head on her shoulder and we were quiet for some time unil she broke the silence.
"What would you like for Christmas?"
I snickered. "Out of all things mother."
"I'm serious." I could feel her smile. "What would you like?"
I took some time to think. "A charm bracelet."
"What about your birthday?"
"Mom let's not think ahead."
"Your birthday right after Christmas." Mom chuckled.
I sighed. "The beach."
"The beach?" She repeated. "I'll talk to dad about it."
