KHEERA Raymond and I ignored Tracy and we packed our things into the only room available asides from hers. We've decided to move in with her and make her happy till what we wish wouldn't happen .... happens .She barged into the house with a full force of energy but I can't help but get worried at how frail and small she looks ." Why do you guys want to stay here ?" She yelled " Because you are my best friend" " Because you are my sister "Raymond and I chorused and we both chuckled ." Are you guys doing this because I'm sick ?" She asked her voice lower than before .Raymond turned away and I raised my hand to talk ." Yes Tracy and this is the time you need us to be with you ....this is why we are a family and guess what ? Even if you push us away we won't go anywhere so don't try ". She let out a small laugh and wiped away the tear drop that fell on her face. " Fine !!! You guys can stay but not in the same room ! I can't let you guys act all lovey dovey on my house ". She
KHEERAImmediately I saw David behind Raymond I knew things are about to get messy. And I was dissapointed because Tracy stormed out of the room immediately .Raymond gave me a " what's going on ?" Look and I just shrugged .David looked dissapointed and sad and a heavy sigh escaped my lips .I followed after Tracy and after searching for a while I found her sitting alone in the veranda with her leg stretched .Immediately she noticed my presence she looked up and glared at me ." If you are here to make me go back inside then you better not waste your time ". She yelled and I smiled gently ." Make you go back inside ? And why in the whole world will I do that ? When it's obvious you want to sulk".She glared hard at me and I sighed ." You can choose to enjoy the moment while it lasts bestie or allow yourself sulk and wallow in self pity it's okay ....but what's not okay is for you to be selfish , thinking about your own feelings and just ignoring his own feelings ". I continued a
KHEERAI walked into the house and I met them still locked in each other's arms .I smiled gently and I walked to where Raymond is standing , he held my hand gently and I smiled." I'm so happy for them " I whispered gently .He nodded gently and drew my waist closer to him ." Can I speak to you for a moment?" He whispered back and we both walked out leaving the love birds to catch up on all the times they have missed ." What's going on ?" I asked gently ." Kheera ...I don't know how to speak to you about this , I don't know how you'll react to what I'm about to say " I sighed .I think I know what this is all about. " Erm about our wedding .....we might have to put that on a hold now , I want this as much as you do but ....you know Tracy , I need to take care of her and look after her first ....she needs all my attention right now " .I gave out a small laugh .I know this is exactly what he was going to talk about .....I've been thinking about it too .RAYMONDI stared at her w
KHEERAThe impromptu yet super exciting wedding plans started rapidly .Raymond and I decided to honour Tracy's wish to get married on the same day ." Kheera I think peach will make a good colour for our wedding dress ". I smiled gently as she brought me out of my thoughts ." It's not your 15th birthday darling ....who wears a peach colour dress on their wedding ?" I yelled and she glared at me ." Tracy ! Tracy wants to wear a peach dress on her wedding day " " We might have to put on different color of dresses then cause there's no way I'm wearing that colour " She pouted her mouth childishly and I rolled my eyes at her ." That won't make me change my mind bestie ". She threw her hands up in surrender ." So what do we wear them ?" " Anything ......."" Let's wear pe ...."" Asides from peach my darling drop the issue ". " What are the two most important ladies in my life talking about ?". Raymond said immediately he got into the house ." Am I allowed to say that too ?" D
DAVIDKheera , Raymond and I sat down outside the emergency ward waiting for the doctor who appeared few minutes later .We all rushed to meet him .My heart stood still frozen ." I'm sure you all know how her heart condition is ?". The doctor asked looking at us for answers and we all nodded ." She had gone through too much stress and that was the reason behind the sudden collapse .... we'll have to get her admitted here and she won't be leaving anytime soon ......". " How is she? I mean right now ? How is she doing ?" I asked ignoring his explanations ." She's stable and she's under control .. she's asleep so you might have to wait a while before going in to see her " . He replied and walked away .I walked lazily to the window of her ward and I stared at how lifeless she looked on the bed .I let out a small laugh at how beautiful she still looks despite her condition ." She looks so beautiful doesn't she ?" I turned to see kheera standing beside me ." Yes she does " " Sh
TRACYI opened my eyes gently and I saw Raymond leaning on the door , kheera and David sat opposite each other fast asleep with my bed in the middle .Each of them holding onto each of my hands .I feel so loved and it made my eyes teary .I placed my hand gently on their two heads like a mother hen trying to protect her children ." Tracy ?" Raymond called surprised and the two of them that were fast asleep jolted up awake .I feel so sorry troubling them like this and making them care too much for me. " The ....the wedding .... I'm sorry ...I ....ruined the wedding ...".My throat hurts and It felels like I haven't talked for years ." Forget the wedding ...how are you feeling ?" David asked worry written all over his face. " How... long have I been asleep?" I asked my voice a little bit clearer although it still hurts ." Five days " kheera replied and I muttered an " oh " .Now I now why it feels as if I haven't opened my mouth in years." Sis ...how are you doing ? How are you
TRACY I decided to speak to them one after the other so David left the room and kheera walked in .." Bestie " she greeted cheerfully " Come and sit beside me " I replied patting the space beside me on the bed .She sat gently beside me and I smiled ." I'm good to miss you ...our fights , our fun times , the times I force you to a party , oh my goodness who is going to style you once I'm gone ? I'm sure you are going to have a tough time dressing up like ....."" Why are you saying all these ?" She replied cutting me off ." We both know I'm going to die soon bestie ...."" You are not dying anytime so......" " Let's stop lying to ourselves kheera , let's be realistic at least for the sake of these our private probably last ....talk " .I let out a small laugh .Was this how mother felt back then ? Her face fell immediately and she let out a small sigh." You are crazy ....even in death bestie you are crazy ".I chuckled lightly ." I want you to do me two favours "." If this
RAYMONDThe doctor and I rushed into the ward to find kheera and David crying .My heart flew out of my chest , we were told to stay outside by the doctor who is busy trying to resuscitate her ." She's gone Ray ...she's gone ..." Kheera said amidst tears .David just sat lifelessly on the floor ." She's not dead , she can't be dead ! She cannot die !" I yelled back at her as I feel my insides crumbling .The doctor walked out of the ward looking disheleved. I rushed to him ." How's my sister ? She's fine right ? She just went through a form of attack right?" " Calm down Mr Raymond ...."" Don't tell me to calm down ! Don't you dare !" I yelled and the doctor sighed slowly." She's brain dead Raymond .... she'll never wake up which means she's ......"" It means she's still alive right ?" " Yes ...we can say that because her other organs are fine and can be donated ...."" Donated ? Don't you dare try to give out my sister's organs like a pack of sweets ". " Raymond !" Kheera
