(The picture is Bailey)
Angella's POV
I was pacing around the hospital room waiting for a doctor to come in and tell me what was wrong with my dad. Thinking about it scares me, we were out walking Bailey, our new puppy, and then he started hyperventilating and collapsed. I screamed for someone to help because when he fell he broke his phone and I left mine at home. Soon our neighbor heard and came running. She called 911 and then everything went black. I woke up a little while ago but just saw my dad on the hospital bed.
About ten minutes later the doctor came in and was asking me what happened then she took some X-rays on him then left. I sat there waiting then she came back.
"Angella, I don't know how to tell you this but, your father, he has stage four lung cancer."
I immediately just dropped to my knees and started to cry. I cried for mom who died in a car accident, I cried for my dad, and I cried for the fact that I would be alone forever if he didn't survive.
After a while of crying the doctor said I had to go home. I got the house key and decided to take the long walk home. I let the thought of dad being in the hospital set. Then I started juggling the thought of taking care of myself. I thought, thank god I have a job, cause without it I wouldn't be able to survive in this position.
I worked at the gas station/exchange store and I got ten bucks an hour. After taking a second to think about it, I called my aunt and told her the news. She said that the most she could help was pay the bills for me so I could continue living in our house. I thanked her then hung up. I went and got Bailey from Ms.Nelly's house and then went to bed and the only thing I could think about was my dad and having to go to school tomorrow.
*Next Morning*
I woke up to Bailey licking my face. I smiled and walked downstairs to make breakfast. I still had an hour before I had to leave so I decide to make pancakes. When I finished I called for my dad.
"Dad I made pancakes come and get it be-"
Then I slowly came to realize that he was in the hospital. I just breathed and relaxed so I wouldn't cry. I wish Jacob was here right now. Jacob is my closest and most best friend I could ever have and he wouldn't be like all those other guy friends. After knowing me for a while he wouldn't hit on me and squeeze my ass and kiss me, try to get with me, maybe get lucky and get laid. The reason he didn't do that was because he was gay. Even if he was straight I knew for a fact that he would never do those things to me. I loved him so much but he wasn't here. I had to wait till school. I turned the T.V. on and watched The Big Bang theory for a bit and got dressed in some light blue skinny jeans, and plain pink shirt with the words, just chillin' here, on the top with some converse. Then put my hair up in a messy bun with no makeup cause I was straight up against painting my face. I fed Bailey let her outside then I put her inside her kennel. I started to walk to Jacobs house when I just stopped. My eyes welled up with tears, I started to breath unevenly, and soon hot tears started rolling down my face. I immediately fell and started to cry.
Jacob's POV
I was on my way to Ang's house when I saw her lying in the grass sobbing. I sprinted to her as fast as I could and embraced her in a hug.
"Hey it's ok Ang, I'm right here."
Her breathing was so uneven and she couldn't stop crying I had no idea why.
"Ang what's going on?"
"My dad, h-h-he h-has stage four l-lung cancer!"
She started crying even more than she did before. I didn't move until she calmed down. We sat there for a while, her breath became more steady and she then explained what happened and all I could do was feel sorry for her and try really hard not to cry. We slowly got up and started walking to school.
"If you need anyone you know I'm here for you no matter what okay?"
She looked at me a cracked that little glimpse of happiness that was left in her and smiled and hugged me.
"Always. You would be the first person I would go to. Thank you Jacob. You are the most amazing friend anyone could ever have. I love you so much."
"I love you too Ang."
