*Suzzie's POV*
Totally ignoring my condition I ran past the guests in the hallway and living room.
He treated us bad and he surely wasn't the best dad but still he was part of the reason for my existence.
Staying at home was never going to make me feel better. Immediately I heard what the doctor said about him attempting suicide, I completely lost it.
It was already too late when Kelly ran to me and lifted me to his shoulder taking me back in. Why couldn't he let me go. I would die either way.
Attempts to get off him were all in vain. He rushed me back inside and everyone's gaze was on us.
I hadn't seen mum yet.
I looked at Kelly as he placed my now pale body on the bed. Well, my stubbornness worked pretty well. All I could see in his eyes was pain and worry. Guilt overtook me and I could no longer swallow the tears I've been trying to hide.
"I'm so..."
"Don't say anything Suzzie.." pain was clear in his voice. " "..just take these drugs and get ready, we going to the hospital tonight"
It pained me to see him that broken.
But was I wrong to worry about my dad?
My mum slowly walked in her eyes bloodshot. She knelt by my bed and let out silent sobs.
I was completely clueless of what to do at this point.
Kelly was now walking up and down the room tugging at his own hair. Quite a similarity with my dad.
There was awkward silence in the room. It wasn't easening the situation.
"Mum did they leave?" I decided to break the silence only to earn a nod from my mum.
My hands had began shaking and my legs almost numb. I struggled to get off the bed.
"What are you doing Suzzie?" my brother questioned when he saw what I was trying to do.
I put my right hand up to stop him as he tried to get to me. Mum was now up her hands resting on her hips.
I left them and walked to my piano. I played my favorite song. "Don't ever leave"
I felt arms around me shoulder. Kelly and mum. Sadness was written all over their faces when I looked up.
I forced a smile out and continued playing.
"I can't play if you keep the hold tight" I joked
"Don't say that Suzzie" Kelly stepped back and left mum holding me.
The rest of the time before eight pm was spent playing. I knew this was one of the last moments with them so it had to be the best.
I tried to cheer them with some random jokes and it worked.
At some point I thought they'd forgotten about dad and my condition.
I kept it that way. Ruining the moment wasn't part of my deal.
We were all laughing when my eyes began failing. Terribly. Blur is the word. Mum and Kelly we're busy laughing to notice.
I tried to hide it but I couldn't anymore.
My hands were next.
Kelly noticed. They all panicked. I knew it was time.
I hated the fact that the slightest sun heat brought me down in a matter of hours.
