I have not seen her for 3 years now, so why has become such an issue,"Why have you been moodier than usual these past few days?"

I asked, looking around,"Balcony" he replied pointing towards its direction like I was a visitor here,"I know where it is located, " I muttered,"Just to be certain, you know" he replied with a shrug, I simply ignored the comment and headed to

I held myself from walking up to her to comfort her, I need answers first,"Jay" I turned to face him when I realized Mum wasn't going to say anything in the state she was in,He glanced at her for an approval, in which she hesitated a little before nodding her head a little, her silent cries turning into loud sobs,"Mum has lung cancer" he finally said, avoiding my eyes,"Lung cancer, how? I don't get it, for how long now?" I asked, realizing I was the only person present who didn't know about this before now, how come Dad knew, and I didn't?,"S

Paige's Pov. "Come on, I will be right beside you through out, you will be surprised if his perspective of you may have changed over the years, it has been 10 years, he must have had a change of heart somehow" I said softly drawing small circles on her palm as we stared at the hospital building, I could feel Lisa fidgeting beside me either because of her fear for hospitals or her fear of rejection or even both. "I guess so" She said with a light Shrug. "Remember just be calm and be yourself, Okay?" I said softly. "Okay" she nodded. "Here goes nothing" I cheered as we walked into the hospital hand in hand. The strong distinctive smell of antiseptics, disinfectants and drugs struck me hard making me pause in my tracks, my gaze moving to Lisa's. "You Okay?" I asked. "I have to get over it someday, I will be fine, I need a few minutes to adjust " She replied gripping my hand tighter.

Paige's POV. Three days later."We should go and see Brandon's dad on our way back" I suggested to Lisa as we prepared to leave. It took alot of convincing to get Lisa to agree to go out with me, She was hell bent on staying right beside Brandon till he wakes up. I had to promise her that we wouldn't be out for long in case he wakes up, and also had to make her understand that Brandon will not be happy if he hears that she put her life on hold to wait for him to wake up and that seemed to have done the work."You know he never approved of me since high school" Lisa replied with fear coating her voice."That doesn't mean you shouldn't visit him at the hospital, at least for Brandon's sake, he wouldn't be happy when he wakes up and finds out that his father was hospitalised and you didn't go to see him" I advised."Yeah, I guess so" Lisa replied with a light sigh."With enthusiasm, we should get moving if we aim to be home early," I cheerfully suggested, reaching

Paige's POV"What are you doing here?" I asked Leon, trying to mask my shock."I came to see you, you have been ignoring all my calls and texts since the burial, I wanted to be sure everything is okay" He replied a bright smile on his face."I have not been ignoring your calls and texts and even if I was isn't that more reason why you wouldn't want to find me?" I questioned refraining from banging the door in his face so I could prepare myself more for this."I don't think that way, I have known you for over five years now, and even though we are not as close as I would loved us to be, but you never just go blank on me like this, on days when you can't text or call, you call when you can, to apologize, so my first thought was definitely something had gone wrong, you can't really blame me" he shrugged so casually me but I just kept screaming in my head. Jace or the kids better not come home anytime soon, it would be a disaster, Paige this is what you get for enabling this guy for so lo
