This is the second book of the series.
Though it can be read as a stand alone book. I would advice you to read Time Flies first.
Thank you...
Shane Smith, the son of David and Ava Smith.
The future CEO of The Blitz...
Handsome, stubborn, and the guy...

Skyler
My treatment started on that day. Shane never left my side, he came with me to every doctor's appointment and checkup.
It pained me a lot but I would put on my brave face when I saw him worried. I saw him crying at night sitting near the pool when I went off to sleep.
He did his work from home and comforted me when I had nightmares. I was recovering slowly but we can't say anything.
Every day I prayed that I recover and dreamt about how it would be when I will be well. I fought every day for him. Never had he lost any hope. He was my pillar of strength and he made me go through. There were times I would lose hope but he always found a way to cheer me up. I can't thank God enough for giving me, Shane.
I urged him to go to work, he had this important meeting and he was canceling it because of me. I need him but the company needs him too. He is always with me. After a lot of pressuring him. He agreed. "Are you sure?"
"I am sure. I am not a kid Shane I will be fine. Now go." I pushed him out of the door. He won't leave me. I feel selfish for keeping him close to me always.
"Alright, Sky." I kissed his cheek and he hugged me before he left. I closed the door behind him.
I took a shower and put on my clothes. I stood in front of the mirror and was combing my hair when a huge chunk of hair fall out. I knew this was gonna happen someday and then I took a look at myself in the mirror as I took deep breaths.
I had gained a little weight. My hair was thin and falling off. My hands had scars of various needles. I take deep breaths to calm down.
You are strong Skyler.
You will fight this too.
Tears fill up my eyes but I convince myself to not break down. Don't cry. You came a long way. Everything will be fine, It's just hair. It will grow back. I will lose weight. I will be fine.
I then tied it in a ponytail and went to the library taking out books to read. Books are always there for you when no one is and I always read books whenever I wanted to calm myself.
Back when I was a kid. I used to read books to sleep. I don't know when but after a few chapters, my eyes were shutting and I fell asleep on the chair.
I woke up when I felt a pair of lips on my forehead. He said worriedly. "You scared me for a moment, Sky."
"Good thing to know that I can scare you." I laughed after I opened my eyes.
"You were awake. Wait, you."
"Shane, Stop." Shane starts tickling me and I start laughing. I hit him with a cushion to stop him but he was too strong. With all those laughing, I started coughing due to shortness of breath.
