"A tumour?"

"A tumour?"

I asked, panicked

"Its benign, but we believe its the cause of your seizures."

"Benign?"

I asked

"Not dangerous. You will need checkups though. To check to see how its progressing as these have the opportunity to turn malignant - dangerous - in some cases"

She explained and i sighed

"If you dont mind me asking you, how did you not know? This looks like its come across as a shock to you"

The doctor asked and i shook my head

"My dad never shared any of my medical history with me, and I've not been to a doctor in years. I cant afford one'

I explained and she nodded

"Your visitors are outside, can i let them in or do you want some time"

She said and i sighed again

"Let them in"

I said and she nodded before opening the door and letting the guys in

Ive not even known them a week and they're spending all this money on me

I decided not to tell them about the cause of the seizures

"Did they find anything?"

Oliver asked and i sighed, acting sad. I was in drama class in secondary school

"No...i think i just got too stressed"

I lied through my teeth and they took the bait

Its not fair to put it on these strangers who i have grown close to. I know they'll feel obligated to help me and i dont want that

I know I've grown close to them. but they're still strangers. they know nothing about me.

I can be independent

"And here are your discharge forms."

The nurse came back in and i took them, immediately stuffing the paper into my bra incase it had any mentions of the tumour on it

She also brought in a wheelchair which the guys insisted on making me travel in

They even stole it from the hospital on the way home

And the way they acted like it was nothing got me suspicious

Undercover police wouldn't steal a wheelchair

"Youre taking the chair back...right?"

I asked them as I sat in the car and we were driving

"Bella, don't worry about it"

Oliver comforted me and I shook my head

"No! I want you to return it. you shouldn't steal"

I insisted to them and they just shook their heads
