All Chapters of The last Leaf on the tree: Chapter 11 - Chapter 18

Kehna's POV   It's been two days now,   It's been two days since my dad burst into rage and since then we haven't exchanged a word with each other. My dad and I never had a father, daughter relationship, but when he arrived at the hospital and said those things he said, I felt like I'd been living with a stranger.   Stella, Ruby, Mr. Garcia and the staffs were supposed to wait downstairs for us because, what my dad was going to discuss, with the so-called doctor was personal.   I was hopelessly standing in front of the doctor's office waiting for my dad. Suddenly the guy I met in the cafeteria, came out of nowhere.   "Hey, you're still here?" I was a bit shocked to see him. "Yeah, we still have a few things to settle" "Oh, I see! So... How are you feeling?" He asked in a very weird way, so I knew something wasn't right "You also heard my dad that day, didn't

Author's POV   "So how and when do we discuss everything? Do you already have an idea of how it's going to be?" He was certain, that to Kehna's father, took his offer as very spontaneous and uncomfortable to accept. "Sir, I-" "Don't address me like that, I'm not even older than you" he chuckled before answering.   "Well, I'll try not to address you like that anymore. But we planned on making it small, I mean it's not something we should celebrate." He wasn't ready to give in and Mr. William wasn't ready to give up either. "If possible, we would appreciate it, if only family members could be there, but none of our families will be able to show up" the more he talked, the more curious Mr. William became.   "Why wouldn't they come? I mean it's a serious matter, and it's probably the least they can do" he nodded.   He was about to answer the question when Rachel appeared out of nowhere. "Sorry, t

Author's POV After the discussion between Ruby and Kehna, there was a bit of tension, in as much as Ruby tried to break that tension Kehna always refused. "Please take as much as you want," Mrs. William said before sitting down like everyone else. The food looked delicious and it also was, but Kehna couldn't bring herself to eat much she knew she would regret it because that was probably the only meal she would have for that day. And she couldn't bring herself to believe that she would never taste her mom's breathtaking food ever again. She stopped eating and stared at the food in front of her unknowingly till... "Hey, you okay?" She tilted her in the direction of Ruby and nodded "Do you want to go out after we finish?" Ruby asked again and Kehna said nothing but nodded. It was starting to piss Ruby off, but she had to put herself in Kehna's shoes. A couple of minutes passed by and both teens didn't spare a glance at eac

Author's POV After Kehna and her father left, Ruby quickly went to look for the 'so-called shadow' Kehna saw. "Seriously?" She shouted furiously as she waited for an answer. "You really have to learn how to knock," the 'so-called shadow' said in a surprisingly calm tone "Look, I'm not here to joke around with you, just tell if you went out today""Yeah, I did. And so what?" Ruby groaned slightly knowing how stubborn the 'so-called shadow' was "You're not-" she proceeded on saying but was interrupted halfway "Yes, I know I have nothing to do out there, most especially not when 'you' have guests" he said as he let Ruby figure out her next argument "But you do know that dad doesn't really care about that man right? I don't know what he's planning this time, but it can't be anything good" he added. "I don't care and except for that should be an irrelevant matter for you" the 'so-called shadow' chuckled looking at Ruby
