"Monica come to the hospital quick...your mom..." Said my dad pausing.

"My mom what?" I said loudly."Your mom got sick again and this time is really bad." Once I heard that I felt like my whole world stopped.

On my way to the hospital I couldn't stop thinking about my mom and asking myself lots of questions. Why did it have to my mom? Why did she have to get sick again? Once I got to the hospital I went to the receptionist and asked her where my mom was. When I got to her room I immediately hugged her and I felt as if I could stay there forever and ever until I was disturbed by the doctor.

"She has been getting a bit worser, but she can be cured by surgery," said the doctor. "But that will cost a lot of money and that's the only option, but there is another and that is to let her get worse and die."

"No we can't let her die," I said with tears in my eyes, "do the surgery and I'll pay it." I was serious about them doing the surgery, but I wasn't so sure about the paying part because that means I have to find a job, but where.

"No sweetie we don't have any money, how are we going to pay it?" Said my dad.

"I'll find a job."

"But where and what about school?" Said my dad

"I'll find an after school job and I won't bring my grades down, I promise... I'll do anything to help my mom." I would do anything to help my mom even murder someone if I have to. My dad took a long time to decide until he finally agreed. After heard him say yes I cried of joy and sadness.

When i got home I immediately changed into my pajamas and went to bed, and I was grateful I didn't have any homework today.  While i was lying on my bed i kept thinking about today, after the doctor told us about mom he said that they would try to do the surgery tomorrow. But something I kept thinking was, about getting a job. Ring, ring ,ring. Ugh, who could be calling to interrupt me from thinking? Once I saw the screen I was happy to see who the person was
