Secrets of friends

Kristina's POV

(After she left school 3:30pm) so after school I had a stupid doctors appointment, I hated these the only reason I put up with them is for my mother "Kristina I-it's getting worse,your condition isn't something to take as a joke, look at your back you barely have any skin do you know you could die any minute?" I rolled my eyes at the idiotic doctor. I already know this but honestly I just don't care "yea sure I know but I already said I don't want the treatment, yes it stings,burns and sometimes itches but I could care less now are we done here?" I looked at the doctor with annoyance, he sighed deeply and looked at me with worried eyes then his gaze fell to the floor "yes kristina you are free to go but please come to your daily checkups and think about the treatment you still have time" he turned away leaving me there, I know I should take the treatment but what's the point? Sooner or later I'm gonna die so who gives a damn? Anyways while I was walking out my phone started ringing ugh I sighed and answered "what mom?" I asked annoyed "I'm on my way to pick you up, be there soon" I sighed again "can I walk home? I kinda need the fresh air" she sighed at me "fine but don't be out to long would ya?" The last thing I said was "sure be home soon"then I hung up. I really didn't want to go home right now so I took a walk around the park until I saw Diana sitting on a bench while tears were coming down her cheeks, umm..the famous and bitchy Diana crying? What the fuck? Well I mean she is human so she has feelings too I guess.
I sat next to her but she didn't notice "uh hey Diana...you ok?" She still didn't look at me her gaze was on the grass and tears came slowly down her cheeks but she had a blank expression on her face, I put my hand on her shoulder, she looked at me still with that blank expression so I smiled at her sweetly and she smiled back but it didn't last long her gaze fell to the grass again, I was about to speak but Diana beat me to it "I...I didn't think it was gonna last so long I...I thought he would stop and m...my family-" she stopped talking and covered her face with her hands while sobbing uncontrollably, I had no fucking idea of what to do, when it comes to comforting someone I'm like really bad ari is the good one in that. I poked her cheek I mean what else can I do? "I..it's ok no worries" well at least I tried,I got up and was about to walk away when Diana grabbed my hand and looked at me straight in the eyes I could tell she was broken and tears kept strolling down her cheeks "please don't go, p...please I...I just don't want to be alone, you don't have to comfort me or even speak just please d...don't leave me alone" her voice was shaky and she seemed scared I wonder what happened? But I understood I smiled at her and sat back down "listen Diana I'm not good with comforting but if I can help with anything well...I...ugh" why can't I say it? Probably because she bullies my bestie but still she really needs someone right now and as I can see nobody notices how Brooken and hurt she is "I just want you to know I'm here for you if you need to talk" I looked at her,she smiled but not at me,her gaze was on the grass but then I remembered what Diana said earlier "umm Diana?" I asked my voice shaky, I was kinda nervous but curious,she still didn't look at me "yea?..." I sighed, welp here goes nothing "you said you thought 'he' would stop umm... who's 'he'? And what did you mean by you thought he would stop?" She finally looked at me terror in her eyes, fear as if remembering who 'he' is and what 'he' did to her,she stood up quickly and looked everywhere except at me "oh uhh It...it's nothing I...uh gotta go, I shouldn't have said that forget it I'm sorry" fuck no!. Someone is hurting her horribly and I'm not gonna let her suffer alone, yea she may be a little bitchy but whatever it is that she's going through is honestly killing her on the inside little by little, before she could walk away I grabbed her arm "wait Diana I...know you're in pain and suffering but you can't pretend like it's nothing,trust me I know" she looked at me in confusion and was about to speak but I cut her off I was far from over "I also have a horrid secret that nobody knows about, not even Ariana my best friend the only ones who knows is my mother and Aron and honestly I have no idea how he found out about it, if you tell me what's up with you I'll tell you what's up with me. Deal?" She chuckled at my words and it sounded kinda cute "well Aron does have a way with finding things out and well fine but you have to swear on your life you won't tell anyone" I smiled at her words and nodded, she sighed and sat back next to me. I looked at the time 5:03pm good we still have time before the meet up,she took a deep breath and was and was about to speak but I cut her off  "if you want I can tell you mine first" she smiled at me sweetly "however you want as long as we both exchange secrets, this way if you tell someone about mine I can threatened you with yours" I chuckled at her words then looked at her serious "Diana I promise...NO! I swear on my life I won't tell a single soul unless you give me permission" I looked at her in the eyes as I said those words, she nodded "same here" I smiled and took a deep breath "since I was eleven I've had HIV, I started taking the treatment but stopped cuz honestly I couldn't take the pressure anymore and my mother doesn't have the money for it I could die any minute" I looked at her to see her reaction and she started laughing. What the fuck? "Kristina don't joke around like that HIV is serious so...-" I cut her off and I was fucking pissed "IM NOT LYING NOR JOKING!!" I screamed, Diana got serious but she still didn't believe me, I sighed and rolled my eyes then I turned around and lifted my shirt, showing her my back,not for long tho.
I turned back around looking at Diana who seemed shock "y...you barely have any skin on your back...HOLY FUCK! I'm so sorry I laughed I didn't think you were serious but kristina...you shouldn't play with your life and less if you have HIV" I noticed she was worried, I sighed "Diana I'm sick of my mother,Aron and the doctor telling me I should take the treatment and saying I could die soon, I've already made my decision so can I live the rest of the time I have left without being reminded I could die soon?" I wasn't looking at her, I could feel my eyes water up but I just held them in, I'm not weak. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked at Diana who was looking at me with a smile "I understand it's your decision kristi just be careful with it but now it's my turn" she said frowning and I sat back down at the bench while she took a deep breath, I mean how bad could it be? "I used to be happy with my family me, my mom, my dad and my little sister candy but when I was six years old my so called uncle a.k.a my father's best friend lost his wife, his house, everything so he started living with us and at the beginning everything was fine but then one he came into my room and he...he-" tears started running down her cheeks again and I clenched my fists already knowing what she was about to say, what a fucking sick bastard but Diana kept talking "that night he took my virginity along with my happiness and scarred me for life. I started treating him like shit in front of my family which made them hate me except for my little sister, joe has everyone fooled acting all angelic in front of them, when I got tired of it I told him I was gonna tell my mother and he swore that if I dare say a word to any one in my family that he would do the same thing to my little sister I...it broke my heart I rather it be me and not her and till this day he still rapes me and till this day my family is still fooled by him" she didn't look up from the ground, tears strolling down her cheeks and she was spaced out, horror plastered on her face as if she was going through that moment right now "I would kill to have a sickness that'll set me free then have this stupid life" those words were strong I felt really bad for her and I don't know why but I hugged her tight, she hugged back even tighter while sobbing and right there my phone started ringing ugh mom "I'll be ok,answer it" I smiled at Diana in thanks and moved away while answering the phone "KRISTINA WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!!? GET YOUR ASS HERE THIS INSTANT" then she just hung up. Shit I really didn't want to leave Diana but I had to go and my mother doesn't like when I bring friends over. I looked at Diana from afar then walked up to her "umm...Diana I'm sorry but I...I hav...-" she cut me off with a hug, then she looked at me "it's ok,you have to go I'll be fine don't worry umm I'll see ya later at kyles house right?" I smiled at her and nodded, she smiled back and walked away but turned around mid way "oh and Kristina thank you, I never knew what it was like to have a friend who actually listens but now I do and please be careful would ya?" I chuckled and smiled at her while nodding, she smiled back then walked away as did I or else mom will murder me before my time is up...oops shouldn't joke about it.
I finally got home and walked up to my room getting ready for the meetup then I went to my mothers room "Kristina you scared me shitless where the hell did you go?" I just chuckled and hugged her "sorry mom got caught up in some drama but I'm ok, oh and ma I'm going to kyles house soon" I winked at her and walked out "ugh again? Fine but be careful and at least text me so I know you're ok understood?" I nodded and went to my room for my car keys. Oh shit I almost forgot, I have to pick up Ariana...
