Always....And Forever: Doesnt Really Matter Sequel

There's Trouble in Paradise (A year and a half later)

I was sitting in my bedroom with a friend listening to music when my phone rang. "Hello?" I said almost in an unsure tone.

"Yes is this Alcyone?''

"Speaking"

"We're calling from the Community Hospital. Do you know Michael Geleski?"

"Yes. He's my boyfriend. Why?"

"He asked me to contact you and tell you the news."

"What news?"

"Well...theres no easy way for me to say this..."

I was getting scared. My friend looked at me and asked me what was going on. I shrugged and whispered "I dont know." She went into the bathroom and I continued talking.

"Do you mind telling me what's going on or is this a joke?"

"Alcyone...Michael came in this morning extremely sick. We took him into the examination room and conduced some tests. He has cancer."

Suddenly my phone dropped to the floor. I didnt want to believe what I just heard. Maybe this was a joke....or I was being hoodwinked. "Hello?" I heard the doctor say.

"Yes, can I speak to Michael please?"

"Im sorry but he is in the middle of chemotherapy now. We will have him contact you as soon as he's finished."

"Th...thank you sir." I said hanging up the phone. I felt like my tears were going to explode as I let out a huge breath. My friend came out of the bathroom and asked me what happened. I couldnt speak and she sat down next to me.

"Michael has cancer." I whispered. I burst into tears and she gave me a hug. "Its going to be OK. He's strong and he's going to be OK."

Knowing deep down inside of my soul, everything wasn't going to be OK
