A week has past and I learned to speak Spanish. Kayla comes into my room and she pulls the covers off from me.

"Payton. Time to wake up." she says and I yawn and stare at her.

"What the actual fudge?"

"Get ready we have plans today. Ask Grace if she wants to join us today?"

"What plans?" 

"We're going ice skating." 

I sighed at her and rolled my eyes at her. I get up and glare at her. I first go to the bathroom and then I go downstairs to the kitchen. Edwin were sitting there and he stares at me. Kayla comes in and she glares at me too.

"Didn't I tell you to get ready?" she asks me.

"Excuse me but it's my bucket list. I think I can decided when I'm ready to go out and do the things on my list." she sighs and Edwin laughs.

"Come on Payton." 

"No. I have cancer. I'm sick. I don't just have the cold or something that will just go away.  And I'll tell you when I'm ready." I said and went back upstairs. 

I went into the bathroom and I take a shower on my own time. After that I brushed my teeth and I wrap the towel around me and went to my room. I get out something to wear with my underwear. I put it on my bed and start to get dressed. I put on a white sweater top with jeans and sneakers. I put a scarf around my neck and put my hair up in a ponytail and I put on some light makeup. 

I get my phone and called Grace

I get my phone and called Grace.

"Hi darling."

"Hey. What are you doing today?"

"My sister came to visit. Why?"

"Well Kayla wants to take me ice skating and I was wondering if you want to join us?"

"Okay. Yeah sure. I'm sure my sister would enjoy that too. I'll see you there then."

"Okay. See you later." I said and I hang up. 

I went downstairs again to get something to eat and Kayla were sitting there with Edwin. I join them with my breakfast.

"Am I rushing things on you?" Kayla asks.

"I'm sorry it's just there are days that I can't handle all the business and where I just need to take things slow. There are days where I know I'm sick. Where I just feel so weak."

"Is this one of those days?"

"Little bit yes."

"I'm sorry." she says. 

"It's fine. Well we should get going." I said and she nods. 

"Let me just take my medicine. Are you coming too?" I ask Edwin. He shakes his head no and I just nod too. I take my medicine and Kayla and I left.
