He's...my....dad?, chapter 2
"Well, im ill"
"What? umm , how ill?"
"Well.. umm.. well.. I've got cancer! "
At this, I froze, with tears pouring down my cheeks. I didn't say anything, just sat there trying to take everything in. I managed to squeeze out a few words.
"Umm, how long have you got ? "
"3 Weeks"
I burst out into tears , and layed my head down on the table. I looked up, and mom pulled out a cigarette.
"MOM! what are you doing ?"
"I'm stressed, I'm having a cig! "
" Mom, for fucks sake! they are the reason you're in this mess! " With that I stormed upstairs to my room and carried on crying.
About an hour later, when I had stopped crying as much, I pulled out venom - venom was what I called my guitar, a black gibson flying V. I started to play, Wake Me Up When September Ends.
Then my mom knocked on the door and came in, "Um listen , I know that you're mad at me and probably don't wanna talk to me but I'm gonna phone your dad"
"M'kay, and mom.. I'm not mad at you, I'm just upset" she then came over and gave me a hug, then she walked out and went to phone Tre.
She came back half an hour later.
"Umm Tre said that, he would come and pick you up tomorrow, about one!"
"What? but why so soon?'
"Because I have to go into hospital, their gonna keep me there for the last weeks."
" But I want to spend time with you!"
"You can come see me everyday, but I think it's best you stay with your dad, so you're not here alone!"
"Hm okay mom" she walked out and I bust into tears again.
I woke up the next moring with Venom still around my shoulders. I must have fallen asleep. I got up and took a shower, turning the water on cold to wake me up . I got dressed, picking out my black Green Day top, my Aiden hoddie, black Adeline street wear drainpipes and added black converses to my outfit. I dryed my hair and pulled my fringe over my eye . I put on blue eyeliner and a tint of black eyeshadow. I went downstairs and mom was getting her stuff up together for the hospital.
"Hey hunny, you should go pack some stuff for going to your dads place "
"No, I just unpacked all my stuff last night "
"Just go do it!"
"Alright chill, I'm going "
So I grabbed a peice of toast from the kitchen and ran upstairs. I packed my clothes and most of my cd's, i put Venom in its case and shoved my drumsticks in my back pocket. I took al my stuff downstairs and dumped it near the door.
"Mum I still don't see why I can't stay here on my own, I'm 16. I'm old enough to live on my own."
"Yes but I don't want you here on your own because: 1. we only just moved here so nothings set up properly and 2. you don't know your way around Oakland so you'll probably get lost"
"Yeah whatever."
My mom brushed off my attitude and went into the kitchen to make us some lunch before my dad got here. I switched on the tele and turned the channel over to kerrang tv, and started headbanging to some of the songs that came on .Mom came in , with a plate full of maccaroni cheese and a bowl filled with ice cream .
"Woah, whats with all the treats?"
"Just making sure you actually eat something today, cause if I know you, you'll be a stroppy teeenager at your dads place and you won't eat anything"
"Ehh alright then."
The next hour passed really quickly, and Tre knocked on the door about 12:55.
"What? umm , how ill?"
"Well.. umm.. well.. I've got cancer! "
At this, I froze, with tears pouring down my cheeks. I didn't say anything, just sat there trying to take everything in. I managed to squeeze out a few words.
