Kelly:
I'm lying here in bed. I'm way worse then I was yesterday. Earlier, I tried to get out of bed; but I got way too dizzy. I called Jonah up here earlier and he had gotten me something to eat, Incase maybe I was hungry because I didn't eat before I went to bed. That didn't work.
"Dad" I yell and I hear him walk into my room.
"Can you bring Svea in here?" I ask him and he nods.
Minutes later, I see her walk in and she sits on my bed.
"Your dad said you needed me?" I smile and hold her small, delicate hand.
"So, I wanted to tell you that when you get old make sure that you find the right someone. No matter the color of their skin, gender, or anything. Make sure they treat you with the same respect and they love you, the way you love them. I can't wait to see you walk down an aisle to marry your soulmate. And you know what?" I say and sighs.
"What?"
"I'll be there to see you walk down the aisle. Even if it's not in person." She has tears glossed along her eyes and she hugs me
"I love you Kelly"
I kiss her head and sniffle
"I love you too Svea. Do you mind getting Reese for me?" She nods and wipes away her tears.
I lay back down and sigh. Reese walks in and all jumpy then sees me laying down in pain. And she acts all calm.
"What's up?" She smiles and it instantly brings one to mine.
"I wanted to talk to you about some stuff, is that okay?" I grab onto her hand and she nods. I bring her closer to me, as I sit up.
"So, when zach goes out on tours and stuff and you have me here?" She nods.
"One day, I won't be here but I will be here" she looks at me and I laugh
"I will be here" I point to her heart and she smiles
"Anytime, you are upset or need a hug, remember when we would play around. Remember my big hugs and think that's my sister. I love you so much Reese and I can't wait to see you grow into a mature woman and surprise everyone with the knowledge that is hiding is that brain of yours" she smiles and hugs me
"I love you too Kelly"
We hug for a little while longer and I pull away.
"Can you promise me one more thing?" I say holding one finger up and she nods.
"Can you look out for Zach and make sure he's okay, when I have to leave?" She nods and gets up.
"Can you get Isla?"
This will probably be hard because she looks up to me a lot, obviously not more than Ava and Sydnie but you got the idea.
"Kelllly" she runs in and hugs me
"Hi Isla!"
She smiles and sits down
"So isla I wanted to talk to you about something important to me okay?" She nods and I grab onto her hands
"So, you know how I have these battle scars?"
She nods.
"Well, one day I'm not going to be around a lot anymore and I just wanted to say when you go through some bad stuff, please don't ever hesitate to go to anyone in this big old family. You can go to Tyrone too. But when I leave, to go to heaven. Please be there for your brother, I really need you too look out for him, because he will be very upset. But i know you, and you could be strong and remember it's okay to cry, and to let it all out. Please don't ever let someone tell you you're weak, because Isla Freakinf Stanford will never be weak." She giggles and hugs me
