"Hey mom", I walked into her room, seeing a box and pictures spread out on her bed.
"Hi Eddie-Bear.", she weakly smiles up at me. These past few years have been rough, she had gotten much skinnier, almost lost 150 pounds from not eating. Her skin is pale, and she looks sickly.
"You hungry? I was thinking of ordering pizza.", I ask, still standing in the doorway.
"Look how skinny I was there.", she lifted up a picture of her on the beach, she was beautiful. I frown, and walk over to the bed. "Are there any pictures of me?"
"Maybe, but these are from before you were even born.", I look up at her and smile before looking through the stack I front of me. I then come up on a few pictures of me and Richie as little babies, and one of me and dad.
"You really looked like him, you still do.", she ran her hands through my hair, and slightly smiled.
I miss him, so much than you could ever imagine. I miss my ma too. Before she wasn't wasting her life away in a bed and drowning in her sorrows, she would joke around with me and Richie, take us places. She was a fun mom. That is until, my dad got diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, it all went downhill for her. My dad was actually the one who took me to a figure skating competition when I was 7, and I immediately fell in love with the sport since. My father always told me to follow my dream, so I'm doing just that. Even if I have to leave everything else behind.
"We don't have enough money for rent this month.", my ma sighed and set down the picture she had in hand. "We'll be okay right?", I frowned, I had money sure, but I still needed to get enough for her groceries.
"I don't know. I think I'm going to start a jewelry business.", she said confidently. "Do you even know how to make jewelry?"
"No, but you know the beading set you got for Christmas? yeah, I used that more than you did.", she pointed her finger at me and nodded her head, going back to looking at the pictures. I scoffed and walked out of the apartment, into Richies.
I couldn't believe that she was thinking of starting a Jewelry business. Has she lost her mind? She cant even get out of bed for god sake.
I walk into Richie's room to see a note that read:
