Cheryl's P.O.V.

"The right valve had closed up, so we need to her to get into an operation as soon as she wakes up." Relief washes over me. She's going to wake up.

"That will be all. Please excuse me, I better go." He said making me nod and gave him a small smile. I sighed and faced Max as I sat on the chair. I stroked her hair as the tears fell.

She shouldn't be having this, she doesn't deserve this.

"You're gonna get better. I promise you." I whispered holding her hand and planting a kiss on it.

Suddenly, my phone rang makng me jump slightly. I took my phone out of my pocket and looked at it and saw Kimberley's name flashing through the screen, I pressed answer.

'Cheryl, Where are you. I'm infront of your house and no one's answering.' She says and I suddenly had gone mute. No words were coming out as I open my mouth.

'Hello, Cheryl you still there?' I look up to Max and remembered all the events earlier making me burst in tears.

'Hey hey, what's wrong. Where are you?'

'at the hospital' I sniffed.

'What?! Why are you- What happened. D'you know what just save it and tell me later. I'm on my way.' And with that she hung up. I rested my head on the side of the bed letting my tears fall hoping Maxene will wake up soon.

------------------------------------------------------

I opened the door and immediately felt arms around me pushing me slightly inside as I heard the door close.

"What happen?" Its Kimberley. I hugged her tight burrying my face on her shoulders as I felt tears started coming out again.

"Babe" She whispers as she pulled away looking at me properly then her eyes travelled to Max who's still laying on the hospital bed unconscious.

"Tell me." She guided me to the small sofa near the window and we sat down. She kept her hand on mine as she looked at me.

"I-I was at the balcony when I heard moaning and squirming coming from my room. I-I turn and saw the sheets were moving so I got inside. I-I pulled the covers and saw Maxene clutching her chest crying. I began to panick and called ambulance. By the time the ambulance came, she was already unconscious. " Kim pulled me into a hug and rubbed my back.

"What did the doctors say?"

"They said her the right valve of her heart had closed up and they need to fix it up as soon as she wakes up."

"She's gonna be okay." She whispered making me sigh and pull away.

"This is all my fault, if I took care of myse-"

"Cheryl, can you stop that. This is no one's fault."

"No Kimberley, This is my f*cking fault. I did this to her." I said loudly standing up. I'm angry and upset at myself and I need to let this out.

"Cheryl.."She said softly but I shook my head as a tear fell.

"I did this to her. I gave her a heart disease. She doesn't deserve this...That should just be me lying there weak instead of her... I'm the worst mam on the world."

"Hey, don't say that. You're not the worst mam in the world. Don't say crazy stuffs right now."

Silence.

Suddenly my phone rang beside Kim making her look down at it and frown.

"Katy's calling." She whispered as she took my phone and hand it to me. Honestly, I'm not in the mood for talking right now, not with Katy, not with anybody.

"Just let it ring." I whispered and turn walking towards Max's bed and sat by the chair.

"Do you and Katy have a problem...Did you tell her already?"

"No"

"Then why are you ig-"

"Kim, I don't want to talk to anyone. So can you please just ignore it." I hear her sigh and saw her put my phone down the table and walk over to me.

"Have you had any food put into you?" She asked softly making me shake my head. Honestly, I'm starving but my mind is set on Max and I think that's why I just noticed it now.

"I'll just go to McDonalds to buy some food then I'll come back." I nodded and with that she made her way to the door.

"Kimba" I whispered making her stop and turn to me raising her brows.

"Thanks for coming." I smiled she nodded as a smile grew on her face and with that she left.

Max's P.O.V.

I hear beeping sounds and voices around me. I slowly open my eyes and immediately saw a white ceiling.

Hospital.

"Max" I blinked a few times as I saw mam's face making me smile slightly.

"Kim, call the doctors please." She said as she held my hand and kissed it repeatedly.

"You're awake." She let out a noise between a laugh and a cry as she stroked my hair. I was about to remove the mask on my mouth when she stopped me shaking her head.

"Just don't speak." She planted a kiss on my cheek and on my forehead.

"Cheryl, the doctors are here." I hear Kimberley says. The doctor came up to me and check up on me. He also checked the machines.

"We really need to perform the operation first thing tomorrow. For now, just let her rest and feed her." Operation? Again. I'm tired of operations.

"We'll go and leave you now." He said.

'"Thank you doctor." Mam said and with that I heard the door close.

"Don't you ever scare me like that again." I turn my head to mam and saw tears falling down her cheeks. I smiled and brought my hand up to her face and wipe the tears away. I tried to sit up and Kimberley helped me making me smile at her. I took the mask off even though mam stopped me. I'm better off it.

"M-mam, What's the problem this time." I croaked as I feel small pains in left chest as I speak.

" Your valve had closed and they have to fix it. First thing tomorrow." She whispered making me sigh. I noticed the mood change so I tried to lighten up.

"Smell food, starving." Mam looked up with me, a smile forming on her lips.

"Here babe" Kim placed my food on my lap making me pout looking at mam.

"What's wrong?" She raised her brows.

"Feed me." I said making her giggle shaking her head. She took a fry and dip it into the sundae.

"Now, open." She says and I do what she says and opened my mouth and she feed me. I wish it would be just like this. Mam and me together having fun. I really hope the operation goes well tomorrow.
