Fixing the Pieces

Chapter 2

I finally checked my phone and realized Haley is panicking. I didn't want to call her because I know my best friend will know something is wrong.

She grew up with me. When her parents are not at home, they will send Haley to my house and mum would babysit her. We became really good friends.

I opened a new text message to Haley and typed: See you in school on Monday. I need to sort things out. Had a very rough day.

Haley replied almost immediately: Am I in trouble?

Me: No. I am in trouble though.

Haley: Who got you pregnant?

Only my best friend could make me laugh when I am in bad mood. I looked into the mirror. Why sulk when I can be happy while this last?

Oh Haley.

I texted her back: Harry Styles.

I could almost see her rolling her eyes while she typed this: Lucky bitch. See you on Monday. Tell me everything. Xo

I didn't reply. I don't know how Haley will take it. It's so difficult to tell my loved ones. How do I tell them? Hey, I'm dying, so let's make this time worthwhile?

I sighed, put my phone away and heard Niall yelling. Yep. My brother's back. And he won't take it well too. Niall Pierce, my twin brother who is a major dickhead but I still love him.

Knowing my twin's temper, right when I counted to three, Niall barged into my room with angry face. Like I say, Niall won't take this well.

"Is this a prank? It's not even funny, Nichole." He sneered. He's wearing a white t-shirt underneath his varsity jacket. His ripped jeans looked too good on him.

Niall and I started a prank war against each other.

Niall love to change my toothpaste into cucumber flavour because he knows I hate cucumber.

There was once, he set a trap over my door and when I opened it, the Nerf gun started shooting all over me. It hurt like a bitch.

Of course I will payback to Niall. Little Nialler scared of spider. And our garden has a lot of little cute spiders. So well, I wrapped the box contained of spiders in a really fancy wrapping box and wrote a random girls name on it, sending it right to him. I'll get him, every single time.

During his sixteen birthday; I pie him in his face with chilli sauce when he was doing shots with his friends. It was hilarious.

So anyway, I throw my result to him. Niall sat by my bed, open the file and took five minutes to read only one sentence. Not like he would know what those alien terms in the paper. Only the simple words Leukemia.

Niall closed the file and just stared at the floor with a frown.

We just sat in my bed in silence until he looked up to me, "What now?"

I raised my eyebrow. Well, Niall took it kind of well. I shrugged, "I don't know, Niall,"

Niall took a deep long breath and looked at me, "I think you had enough today. Go to bed." Then he stood up, kissed my forehead like every night and then closed the door.

I just stared after Niall. I should give everyone some time. This also includes me. It's hard to take in everything.
