Carmen's Diary

    "Do you want any book from the library?"I smiled as I looked at Cody, my little brother. He was only 8 years old and already carried a lot of problems on his shoulders.       "Yes! Yes! Yes!"he shouted excitedly and gave me his silly toothy smile.       We don't pay for the books. We have a ticket and when we show it to the librarian, he gives us the approval to borrow  maximum eight books for the whole week.       We were near the library so I suggested to take him there. He was such a bookworm. I also loved reading a lot, so this ticket was all our lives.      "I miss Simba. Should we give her a visit"I heard a long dramatic gasp which made me break in a fits of laughter "You're a drama king, Coco"I saw him frown and knew exactly why he was an

Carmen's pov I looked at Cody's angelic face as he was sleeping peacefully. "Oh my poor brother, it's so heartbreaking to see you like that. I wish you are always this peaceful. Either awake or asleep"I muttered to myself. "Miss"I heard someone say. I raised my head and smiled weakly at the doctor"I have something to tell you. Please come with me to my office"I nodded and glanced at Cody before leaving his hand hesitantly. We walked to his office and I sat down in front of his desk. "I'm not so sure about the results here but we have to make some tests"he looked at me seriously. "Tests for what?" "Parkinson. There is a high chance he might have it. A person has Parkinson when they have weakness in their blood. Patients of this disease need a surgery to be saved. The first symptom is getting dizzy which I think happened to your brother and that's why he fell and hit his head. If the donation surgery didn't happen in the right time, the patien

Carmen's pov  "Cody relax!"I wiped his tears away as the nurse was holding his hands tightly.   "It doesn't hurt, sweetheart. Calm down"Riven, the doctor said. I smiled gratefully at him as I was hugging Cody. He was thrashing around and sobbing loudly. I've never seen him like that.   Riven finally took a sample of Cody's blood after he had calmed down.   Then, I asked the doctor privately"Is headache one of the symptoms?"  He glanced at me for some moments before shaking his head "No, it's not. Unless I would've told you"I released a sigh of relief"Why do you ask?Has he been getting a lot of headaches lately?"  "No. He just had a headache this morning. I'm just so worried, that's why."

   "So..? I've been waiting since so many time. Just talk already!"Cody said in frustration as he pulled on his hair.   "Okay, okay. I'll talk"I took a deep breath"So you don't know why we went to the hospital today."  "No I don't"he shook his head.   "Well, it's because doctor Riven wan-"  "Oh you mean River cow!"he laughed.   "Why do you call him by that?"  "Because his name is like River and he is stupid as a cow" he shrugged his shoulders innocently.   "And how do you know cows are stupid?"I raised my eyebrows teasingly.    "The moment I laid my eyes on him, I just knew it"

   Carmen stormed out of the room as she blew some strands of hair away from her face. She looked at the fake Barbie who had a smirk on her face. She suddenly felt like beating the hell out of her.   She jogged towards her and proceeded to grab her from her hair. "You're a stupid fake b*tch!"she screamed at her. She was shocked she had cursed for the first time ever. What was happening to her?  She yanked the girl backwards and threw her on the floor. She backed her leg behind her and pushed it forward harshly, making it hit the fake blondie’s back.    All of the women including the secretary were shocked, the latter tried to hold fuming Carmen back but she just ended in being pushed away. The lady on the floor kept screaming for help as Carmen was throwing punches at her face.
