"i'll see you later, grace!" luke shouted as i walked down the path to the gate at the end of his front yard.
"see you tommorow!" i shouted back, giving him a quick wave.
"wait!" he yelled running towards me, "have you got a phone?" i looked at him confused then nodded my head "give me it." i pulled my phone out of my back pocket and handed it to him, he quickly typed something into it then handed it back to me, "now you have my number, text me later yeah?" i nodded again and bit my lip before making my way into my house as quick as i could.
"grace? is that you?" my mum called from the kitchen. she walked into the hall wearing an apron, which was covered in flour. "where have you been?"
"i was just round a friends house, m'sorry." i shrugged, trying to walk past her and across to my room. my bedroom was downstairs so that i didn't have to go as far and get out of breath as quickly.
"it's fine, which friend? you never go to anyone's house." she asked, stopping me from walking.
"he's new, he actually lives next door." i stated, still trying to get past her.
"oh, wait! i know, it begins with a h. oh yeah hemmings!" i nodded my head in agreement, he actually never told me his name but the teacher said it in class. my mum finally let me past but i was then stopped by my dad.
"hi sunshine, how was your day?" my father asked, removing the glasses which he previously had perched on his nose.
"good i guess, how was work?" he groaned at me then ruffled my hair.
"same old, same old." he chuckled, finally leaving me.
"wait, dad, is mason home?" i yelled to him as he had already sat down on the sofa in the living room.
"not yet, he said he'd take an extra shift!" i sighed and opened the door to my room. i placed my oxygen tank right next to my bed then instantly flopped down onto it. i ran a hand through my hair, yet again. suddenly my phone buzzed in my pocket and i yanked it out reading the message.

a smile grew on my face and i clutched my phone to my chest. "grace, dinner!" my mum shouted, knocking on my bedroom door.
"m'not hungry!" i shouted back. getting off of my bed and grabbing my pyjamas out of my wardrobe.
"please grace! just eat a little, it's only spaghetti." she pleaded with me.
"can i just have some toast?" i asked, dropping the clothes onto my bed.
"okay, but you have to have two slices, not one!"
"mum!" i groaned, grabbing my oxygen tank and stomping to my door then throwing it open.
"it's either two slices of toast or the spaghetti." she stated giving me her don't-even-try-anything-else look.
"fine!" i moaned, dragging myself into the kitched and placing two slices of bread in the toaster. when i was finished i quickly brushed my teeth and went back into my room and changed into my pyjamas. i grabbed my hair brush off of my desk and ran it through my hair a few times. i groaned and threw it on my bed.
i stared into the mirror and pushed my hair out of my face, it's too short! but it has to be that way because when i start the chemo again it will all just fall out. i then turned to the side and sucked in my tummy, you're too fat, you shouldn't eat as much as you do. but i have to because my mum has been obssessed with my health ever since i was eleven and the cancer struck for the first time.
i was pulled away from my mirror as i recieved another text.
