When Two Worlds Collide

Chapter 8- Dianna

Chapter 8- Dianna

I woke up the next day with red puffy eyes from crying so much.

A nurse walks in and gives me a smile with sympathy in her eyes.

"Dianna, your ready to leave, I just have to take your temperature and your ready to go."She says grabbing the thermometer and putting it under my tougue.

It beeped once or twice. "Good, your ready to go. Your temperature is 95." She says helping me get out of my bed and leading me out the hospital.

I don't have my car here. I look around for a taxi. When I saw my mother came out of the hospital, with red puffy eyes like me.

"Mom? Why are you at a hospital?" I whisper-yell. She looks up at me and starts sobbing more.

"Mom, what's wrong?" I asked.

"Honey, we both have breast cancer, you have stage 1, I have stage 3, I only have 1 month until I die."She says holding back another load of cries.

My world stopped there. My mother, the one who gave life to me, she's the one who came to my Pre-K graduation and all my others. This year is where I'm a senior, it's my last year in High School. School hasn't even started yet. There's 1 month till' it does. And in that 1 month, my mother is going to die. She's going to leave like everyone else did in my life.

I look at her with tears wanting to come out. "Can we go home now?" I asked. She nodded and lead me to her car.

The car ride was silent. And when we got home I saw Kyle and my dad talking in the living room.

My dad saw us and invited us over there, I sat next to Kyle as that was the only seat left. I avoid his gaze that was burning my side.

My dad clears is throat, "Dianna, you know this son.." He said looking Kyle's way. "He saved your life." I looked up at Kyle and gave him a fake smile," Thanks Kyle for saving my life." I say.

"Welcome. Can we talk?" He says. He looks at my parents"Alone.." My dad got the message and lead my mom and him to the kitchen.

I lead Kyle to my room, my hands starts sweating. What if he wants to rape me?

He sat on my bed while I sat infront of him.

"So.. Whatcha wanna talk about?" I say not looking at his gaze once again.

"About what happened at the hospital, I'm sorry. Its embaressing, I never told anyone that I loved them, and." He paused and sighed. "I was raped by my mother when I was younger. She left me and my father after that, and he started abusing me and he also raped me. I don't know how he did it, the memory is blurry now. I was 5 at that time, and I was so stupid, I didn't call the cops because my father said if I did he'll kill my little sister. She wasn't even 1 at that time and she wasn't even my sister, my father drunk and he f*cked another girl and the girl didn't want the baby and so I tookmy sister, she's in my custity. And, I'm not ready for love cause my whole life has been a living crap ever since my parents married." He says and takes a deep breath in and out.

" I....I" I say but no words could form.
