*Kaiden POV*
5th grade
The car pulls to a stop in front of the hospital I've been to, too many times. We get out of the car and walk in complete silence to the elevator. I drew a new picture today during school and I can't wait to show my mom. She was the only one who I showed my drawings to. I look up at Kellin and wonder why my dad didn't pick me up. I mean Kellin has picked me up before, but every time I come to the hospital my dad picks me up. Kellin and my dad have been friends since highschool, I've known him since as long as I can remember but something doesn't feel right. Kellin sees me looking at him.
"Hey listen kiddo," Kellin says looking at me with sympathetic look,"whatever happens in there, just know you'll be ok."
"What do you mean?" I looked up at him confused.
He looked straight ahead with tears in his eyes and squeezed my hand tighter. The doors opened and i let go of Kellin's hand running to my moms room, excited to show her my picture.
I heard Kellin's voice but I didn't bother to listen. I grabbed door knob and my dad stepped out slowly with tears streaming down his face before I had the chance to open it. I looked up at him in confusion, and he looked down at me in shock. I saw the look in his eyes and instantly knew what Kellin meant in the elevator. I pushed passed my dad after a small struggle, and saw my worst nightmare. My mother was dead.
