A Tale Of 3 Fools, chapter 1
A young boy of the ten sat in a white room on a white chair, next to a white bed. In the bed was a very sick man. The boy's emerald green eyes shot open at the sudden movemeant of the man.
"Dad?" The boy spoke, his small voice filled the room. The boy was holding the man's hand.
"Ah, Bilie, I'm glad you're here, son." The man's raspy voice said. He pushed a brown curl of Billie's hair from his face.
"You're going to be alright. You have to be. You're my dad," Billie said. The man laughed.
"You are a positive one, Billie Joe." He smiled. The white door cracked open and a woman stepped in."no fighting," She said to some other kids outside the door and shut it.
"Ollie," the man said.
"Andy! Oh god, how are you feeling?" Ollie asked sitting next to Billie Joe.
"The pain killers have done their job." He smiled weakly. Ollie looked down.
"Billie Joe, excuse us for a minute," she said. Billie Joe looked up at her and nodded. He exited.
"Good boy. He'll be great," Andy said. "I'm not gonna make it, Ollie." He said turning to her pale restless face.
"Don't say that," she said.
A few minutes later Ollie exited the door to her children.
"Come on, we best get home," she said.
"No, mom I wanna stay!" Billie Joe said. Ollie couldn't resist those eyes, especially when his Father was going to die.
"Alright, Billie."
Billie had falled asleep holding his father's hand. He jumped awake at a sudden jerk Andy made. Andy woke up a few minutes later.
"You're still here?" Andy asked. Billie Joe nodded. Andy smiled. There was a slight pause. Billie looked over at a machine which had been beeping inbetween seconds, now never stopped at a continuing beeeeeep. He looked up at Andy who's eyes were shut.
"Help! Help!" Billie Shouted in the room but never letting go of his father's hand. Doctors and nurses raced in, shouting at each other but Billie heard nothing. Andy's hand finally loosened grip of Billie's.
"No! Save him! Save my Daddy! He can't die!" Billie cried. Tears trickled down his face. A nurse tried to disconnect Billie Joe's hand from Andy's.
"Let go, little boy, he's gone," she said.
"Fuck you, bitch," Billie said pushing her away. Tears began falling, more and more. Ollie ran into the room. Billie collasped in her arms but still holding Andy's hand.
"Make him come back, mom!" He said. Ollie didn't say anything. She just cried. A few house of crying the nurses insisted that they leave only because they had to.
"Billie Joe, we have to leave now," Ollie said. Billie Joe nodded. He kissed Andy's lifeless hand that he had still been holding and let go. Ollie carried him to the car where he fell asleep.
