Debt

2.The change of everything

...
*Until my father kind of..lost himself.He suddenly started to avoid us.He was coming late at night...sometimes he didn't come home at all...But only in the morning.We started worrying and asked him what happend.He said that he had so much work the last days..that some times he decides to stay there over night...just to now wake us up...we believed him...at least my brother did..I sometimes didn't believe him.I thought that he was hiding something...
A few weeks past,and my father was rarely home...he left us some money saying that he was going on a trip with work...this was the first time that this happend.Nate also understood what was happening.We called him a million times...and after a few days he answered.He told us that he would come back home tomorrow and he claimed that everything was alright.When he came back,he both run to him and asked him a billion questions.He took us to the living room to tell us what was going on*
J-My kids,I'm so sorry for not being next to you this whole time.I know you really need me,and I love being next to you always.But...there is something I haven't told you...and I think it is time you know.
Ni-what is it dad?
J-I...
*he took a deep breath*
J-I am a drug dealer.
Na-W-what??
Ni-Dad what do you mean??
J-For the last two years,I have been buying drugs and selling them to others...
Na-But why??Why in the world would you do that??
J-Kids im so sorry...The money we have aren't enough...I had to find a way of getting more money...it was the only way...my friend ,Jerry,pulled me into this...But I swear to you,I only sell it...I have never taken one.
But...unfortunately...I have been here and there all these months...than some drug dealers demanded more money from me...I had to go to that trip...to get a promotion on my job...I'm so sorry guys for not telling you...I didn't want you to worry..
*Me and my brother looked at each other,took a deep breath and sat down next to our father*
Ni-"hugs her father"Dad,its ok...we understand what you're going through...we will help you.
J-Wait what?Oh no there is no way I'm putting you guys in this messing situation.
Na-what Niki means is that we will find a way to get you some money...just for this situation...and after that we will get a job and you will stop making those deals with people...
J-My kids...you are brilliant"tears fall on his cheeks,hugs them" I don't know what I would have done without you...
*We all hugged each other,and we talked for hours till midnight.Then we decided to call it a night and went to bed*
*The next day,my brother told everything to Hailee,and she was happy to help.We all got a job at the closest store,and everything was going great.we had some night shifts as well,which really helped us have some fun.Everything was going perfect.And our life in paradise came back,slowly but steadily...*
*Almost...one day something strange happend to me...my nose started to bleed...a lot.Like someone punched me super hard.I didn't think a lot at the start,I thought it was normal.After a few months tho..I started bleeding at least three times a month.My family noticed and my dad decided to take me to the doctor.They took many tests,and after some hours,the doctor came with the results.He talked to my father in a different room,while I was waiting outside.Once they called me inside,I saw my father crying.More than ever.*
Ni-Dad?Why are you crying?Doctor,what happend?
D-sit down my child.
*I sat down,next to my dad,and I realized the super serious face the doctor had on her face*
D-We got your results...and lets say they are not good..
Ni-W-what do u mean?
D-all these days...this nose bleeding you have isn't normal...turns out you have nasal cavity...
*my father started crying even more.I was extremely confused*
Ni-what-what is that?
D-its a type of cancer that makes your nose bleed,giving a sign that it exists in you unfortunately...
*she continued talking about it,but i wasn't listening..when I heard the word cancer everything stopped...tears started to fall on my cheeks.I looked at my dad,who couldn't keep his tears inside...*
