" I never liked you"
The words still stung me. After I made my grand speech I went rogue and skipped school. I felt like if I spent one more second with Jacob I would either burst out in tears, or start cussing like a maniac, and neither of these seemed appealing to do in front of him so I ran.
And I ran, and I ran. I ran until my legs nearly collapsed beneath me. I had no clue where I was, all I knew was that I was far, far away from school. All of a sudden all the emotions came flooding to me. I collapsed, giving in to the will of my legs, and cried. The flood gates had opened and now tsunamis of tears came running down my face. Soon it had become a full on tantrum. I was screaming, things about how much I hated Jacob, my cancer, and myself. I was pulling up the things that felt weeds around me and ripping them up.
      About 40 minutes later my temper tantrum had reduced to a few sniffles. I had laid myself in the soft grass that surround me and was very thankful that I lived in a remote town and I had not stopped in the middle of the road. I suddenly had the bright idea, why not ask Siri where I was. I pulled out my phone and held the home button when finally the monotone responded, " Siri is not available right now."
      I started to freak out, my eye-wholes starting to water again, I was lost. Then I felt a blaring pain from where my eyes where. With the speed of light I slammed the home button five times, then everything was gone.
..
Sirens faintly rang in my ears. I could hear my mom's voice frantically whispering my name and my father telling her everything would be okay. But really we all know it probably would not be. My dad was always the rock in the relationship. I smiled, and I think my mom noticed, I heard her scramble for the button to call the nurse. But before I heard and felt her achieve her action everything went away, again.
..
    Everything was black, all I saw was darkness. Déjà Vu right. I knew everything was fine and the was just another episode of season 15 of Emma vs. Cancer.  Soon I drifted into a deep slumber.
