Trippy Triplets - Chapter 4

[Alli's POV]

With that, I turned my back and walked back into the hospital room. "What was that about?" Charles said. "Nothing." I replied.

[Charles' POV]

"What was that about?" I asked after Alli returned from the hallway. "Nothing " She replied. Ugh. I hated when Alli didn't tell me things. I decided to just let it go for now. Alli edited and uploaded the video about the c word and I fell asleep. In my dream, I was at Mira, Q and Angie's graduation. I was sitting with Alli, who was as beautiful as always, and we were looking at the stage full of cap-and-gowned seniors, about to be high school graduates. Three of them were our children, Mira, Q and Angie. They were all standing together. Both Angie and Mira were beautiful, like Alli, and Q was handsome. He must have inherited his father's genes! I watched as they walked, one by one, across the stage and received their diplomas. After all of the students got their diplomas, the principal announced, "Seniors, please move your tassels from left to right." I watched the kids move their tassels with tears in my eyes. "May I present to you the 2033 graduating class of Manatee High School! Congratulations, graduates!" Applause roared through the auditorium, and caps were flung into the air. Suddenly, my dream was interrupted. "Sorry to wake you, Mr. Trippy, but we need to get you prepped for surgery to insert your port and picc line. "Right. Yeah." I nodded. The whole time I was in pre-op, I was thinking about the dream. Now, I knew I needed to make it. I was going to live. For the kids. I would not let them grow up without a father. I would live to see them graduate and much longer, because I was strong. I was strong and determined to not let my children down. They were so young and full of innocence. No young child should have to watch their father wilt away and die. Cancer would not win. I would. Right before I went into surgery, I made a promise to myself that I would not lose this battle to cancer. For the kids. For Alli. For the CTFxC. For myself. I would prove to myself that I was strong and nothing, not even brain cancer could stop me. I would fight though and win. No matter what. I knew that much.
