Sprinkle Of Goodbye

Why can't she know?

Matts pov

I agreed with Darcy Louise was hiding something-I knew it. I've asked everyone we know if the know what's up but no one claims to have known.
"Sweetie?" I called from our bedroom. Darcy was at school so it was fine.
"Yes?" She bellowed
"Come here please?"
"Yes?"
"What's in that letter your hiding?"
She fell to the floor crying and pointed to her private draw. On the top of the pile of things was a crumpled letter.
"How long?"
"2-1month..."
I hugged her tightly crying myself, I never wanted to let go. Never.

Darcy's pov

My parents were awfully quite and dinner and kept glaring at each other than me. It made me feel very uncumfortable.
"Nice thanks mum..."
She nooded and then left the table. Shortly after my dad kissed me on the cheek and left too.
I decided to follow them upstairs and see what they were up to. Behind the doors I heard mumbles-some sounded angry some sad. I could only make out a few word from what they were saying.
She. No. Mum. Dying.
I barged open the door at this point crying.
"Dying...?"
"I'll leave you to talk to your mum..."
Then my dad left the room.

"Hi sweetie"

"Mum?"

"I..I am"

"Dying?" I bursted into tears. Soon after my mum wrapped her warm comforting arms around me.

"Can I have up until...you know...of school?"

"Haha! Sweetie maybe a couple of weeks away?" She wiped away my tears "a family holiday!"

We both smiled happily.

"Can we just pretend I'm healthy...normal"

"Sure mum... I love you!"

Dear Diary,

I know mums secrete. I can't believe it. She's dying properly, me and dad are emotionally. I don't want her to leave us- I need a mum. Zoe said if I ever need any girly advice she'll be there for me if mums ever away. She doesn't know yet. But it won't be the same. She won't be there on my prom, wedding day, when I can drive, when I start my youtube channel and when I have a child. Mum must no how I feel her mums gone to...my grandma. I need her in my life!

Louise's pov

Tonight we were going out for dinner at Darcy's favourite restaurant then go and watch Frozen 3 at the cinema. On the way we sung Let It Go t the top of our lungs-it was great.
I ordered a chicken salad, Matt ordered a beef burger and Darcy ordered a mushroom and ham pizza and we let her have a hot brownie sundae for after.

"Thanks!" She said scoffing her face with ice cream. Me and Matt laughed loudly soon joined by our beautiful baby girl.
"It's ok pumpkin" Matt replied
"By the way Zoella and PointlessBlog are coming over tomorrow so I can tell them" I whispered sadly
"Way to lighten the mood" Matt whispered sarcastically kissing me.
"I need the loo" Darcy mumbled leaving suddenly
"I should go" I whispered leaving Matt
I entered the bathroom to the sound of quite cries coming from a shut cubicle. Softly I knocked on the door.
"Darcy?" I whispered. Then the door unlocked. Slowly, I entered to find Darcy sat on the floor. I sit down next to her and she leans on my shoulder wiping away some tears.
"I'm sorry" I cry
"No mum I just need to face the fact"
"But I know what it's like"
"I shouldn't be the one crying mum I'm ok"
I squeeze my baby girl tightly and we both get up and go back to the table to a very concerned looking dad. He hugged Darcy lovingly.

She'll be safe when I'm gone.
