Part 14

Frannie's POV

I walk into the kitchen to find my amazing husband, Michael, making dinner. Hazel left for Amsterdam a few hours ago. I walk over to him and he looks at me with a small smile on his face. "Did you tell her?" He asks.

"No." I say.

"What did you tell her? She looked really excited and happy about something and I don't know if it was because she was going to Amsterdam or something you told her." He asks.

"I told her I was pregnant." I say.

"But, you're not. You have cancer and you are going to... die... in a month. As much as I hate saying those words." He says.

"I wanted her to be happy before she left, not sad." I say.

"You could have said nothing." He says.

"But she got all upset about how those are the only grandchildren we're going to get and the thought popped into my head. I'm sorry; I didn't know what to do. How am I supposed to tell her I'm dying when she's pregnant with twins, she just got over the fact she isn't going to die of cancer, and the father of her children is dead?" I say.

"I know it's hard, but you have to tell her the truth." He says.

"I know. She said she'd call us when she gets to her hotel room. I'll tell her then." I say.

"Okay." He says before pulling me in for a hug.

Hazel's POV:

When I arrive at my hotel room, I am sharing a room with Kaitlyn but Isaac is here now as we have ordered some room service, I pull out my phone and call my parents. My mum picks up on the third ring. "Hey sweetie." She says.

"Hey mum, I got to the hotel safely, so did the other two. How are you?" I ask.

"Hazel, I need to tell you something." She says, sounding serious.

"Okay. What do you need to tell me?" I ask.

"I was lying, about being pregnant; I wanted you to go with a happy thought, not a sad one." She says.

"What? Why would you lie to me?" I ask. Tears are pooling in my eyes.

"Hazel, I'm dying." She says.

"What?" I ask as the tears start falling down my cheeks. Kaitlyn and Isaac look at me, worried.

"I have cancer; they've given me a month left to live." She says.

"No. But I need you. My babies need you. You can't leave me." I say as my knees buckle from underneath me. Isaac and Kaitlyn come over to me.

"I'm sorry, Hazel. I want to be there, I do. I'm sorry I lied to you." She says, I can tell she's crying.

"You can't leave me, mum." I say.

"I'm so sorry. I love you." She says.

"I love you too." I say before hanging up the phone, I can't handle it anymore. Isaac pulls me in for a hug and I cry into his top.

"Hazel, what's the matter?" Kaitlyn asks.

"My mum lied to me. She's not pregnant. She's dying. She has cancer and only has one month left to live." I say.

"Hazel, I'm sorry." Isaac says.

"Why do people have to leave me?" I ask.

"Hey, we're here. We're always going to be here. For you and for the babies." Kaitlyn says.

"Yeah, we're here." Isaac says.

We sit like that for a while, them comforting me as I cried. We ate dinner and watched a movie, which luckily was in English. Then Isaac left and Kaitlyn and I went to bed. But I don't sleep straight away. I look up at the ceiling and think about Gus, and my mum, and my dad, and Isaac, and Kaitlyn, and my babies. I think about many things. Like how my mum lied to me because she was dying and wanted me to go to Amsterdam with a happy thought instead of a sad one. Like how Gus is dead. Like how my mum is leaving me and her unborn grandchildren. Like how my babies are fatherless and are only going to have one grandma.

I lie there for ages just thinking about things before sleep takes over me.
