Sheldon sat in his spot on the couch, "Only if we watch Star Wars."

"Uhhh, sure." Leonard says, seeming unsure.

Next Day

Angela sat in her office organizing her desk, putting every single thing in it's spot. Until her cheap phone rang, and she looked at her contact, seeing that it was her big sister. She sighed and answered.

"Hello, Sandy..." Angela said.

"Hi, Angela. Mind if I ask where the hell you've been? You were supposed to visit yesterday." Sandy said through the phone, sounding angry and annoyed.

"You're asking a useless question."

"Ugh, never mind. That was a useless question..."

"Very useless." Angela muttered.

She heard her sister sigh, then there was a long uncomfortable silence.

"I took daddy to the doctors yesterday."

"I don't want to talk about him." Angela snapped, right away.

"Shut up and listen, you baby. This is important."

"Must I repeat myself? I refuse to---"

"Angela! Shut it," Sandy warned. "I took him to the doctors office and they said that he doesn't have enough time."

Angela sat there in silence.

"He has four months to live, Angela. You have to come and visit him. Eric said he'll come for Christmas and---"

"I'm not going."

"What?"

"I am not going." Angela said.

"Angela, you have to come. I'm beggin' ya! Please..."

"I am not going." Angela repeated.

"This is ridiculous. I don't know what happened between you two, but you have to put it aside and stay with him at his side. He doesn't--"

"Oh, you know exactly what happened between us, Eric knows...and so do you. Plus, you moved out and started your life and left me alone." Angela said, getting annoyed.

"Angela, I don't want to fight with you! You're being unpredictable!"

"I don't want to fight with you either. But, I am telling you that you shouldn't act like you were never there. You know."

"Ugh! Refresh my memory for me then." Sandy said, acting sarcastic.

"It's too personal to say at work."

"Just come for Christmas."

"No."

"You know what, I don't care anymore. Do what you want. But what you're doing, is selfish. You cared for ma when she was dying and--"

"Don't you dare bring mother into this!" Angela snapped, gritting her teeth.

"Oops, sorry. Did I hit a soft spot?"

From this point, Angela was furious with Sandy. Before Angela can yell, Sheldon had walked into her office, making everything hard for Angela.

"What's wrong, baby sister? Cat got your tongue?" Sandy kept pushing.

"Don't call me that! And don't ever mention mother ever again!" Angela raised her voice, making Sheldon quite uncomfortable.

"See, selfish. When daddy dies, you're going to regret not wantin' to come and see him."
