Brec's Last Days(2)
Yume Pov
Walking through the hospital walls now. They look so... Sad... I never noticed that.
It makes sense I never noticed it. Hospital walls are always painted white. But now.... They just look like a mixture of grey smudges.
Stopping for a second. I place my hand on the wall. Hoping. No. Praying that they will change. That they will change Brec's fate and have her live a full life. So she could actually have a chance to watch Bree grow up. So her and Riku could be husband and wife. Just for a little bit longer.
I place my head on the wall and shut my eyes closed.
But I know that won't happen. This was Brec's fate from the very day she was born. From the moment I met her...
How could this even happen? I know Aids isn't curable but still...
How can I even live without my sister!? She's the whole reason why I'm even here... God knows what would've happened to me if she didn't show up.
She's the whole reason why I even fought back during that surgery.
My eyes widen when I realize something. Something that I've been trying my best to avoid thinking about. But the day is tomorrow. It makes sense that I can't avoid it anymore.
'How can I even go to her funeral to bury her....?'
I turn around and slide down the wall. Reaching the ground, I bury my face into my knees. Silent tears fall down my cheeks.
"Yume..."
I look up to the sound of my name. And the sight of Subaru looking helplessly at me, unknowing what to do. Just makes me want to cry even more.
"Brec's waiting... Come on..."
He holds his hand out and I slowly take it. He helps bring me up to my feet.
Without really trying to stand up, I end up falling over and Subaru catches me. A look of sadness and worry written all over his face.
"I'm sorry..."
I mumble.
Subaru shakes his head.
"It... Can't be helped right... I know you two are very close... Even before you found out you were siblings with her..."
He helps me actually stand. And wraps his hand around mine.
"Come on. She really wants to see you."
He helps lead me to the room that I've been going over to for a whole month. Stopping at her. I let out a huge sigh that I've been holding in.
I open the door and look at Brec. She lays in her bed. Looking out her window. Nothing is written on her face so I can't tell what she is thinking.
Brec finally feels my gaze and looks at our dicrection. She smiles at the sight of me and pats a part of her bed.
"Sit."
Is all she says.
I hesitantly walk over to her. My feet feeling heavy. I finally manage to sit on her bed. I huge lump in my throat along with tears that are treating to spill out.
"Subaru.. I would like to talk to Yume alone please.."
I look over my shoulder at Subaru. He nods in reply and walks out. Closing the door behind him.
"Yume... I know that after tomorrow... You're going to become very depressed... It's normal and expected...."
I look down. Trying my best not to say that that's already started even though she's still here.
I open my mouth.
"I just... Don't know how... I can go on without you... I don't want this year with you to end... But it's going to end anyway... And I can't... I can't accept that...."
Tears fall down my cheeks. As weird chocked noises escape my mouth.
Out if no where I feel the warmth of a familiar palm of a hand.
"But you can change. You can become better even without my help."
She looks down.
"You have to be weak for just a little bit. That way you'll be able grow even without me. I was able to do it without anyone's help."
(Play song above!)
"I know you're not me. But I know your stronger than me. Physically and mentally. You can do this without me. You have friends and family who will be there for you! You will understand what you're going through! Who will help you escape the darkness that swallows you!
"All it takes is for you to believe you can do it! You have to fight to be happy! Happiness isn't just handed over to you. You have to fight your way through life to reach it! You have to go through... Chanllenges and obstacles to reach happiness.
"You wanna know how I was able to become this happy? I fought. I fought through my sickness. Through my depression. I realized there was more. So I fought. And you have to also!
"You have to fight after tomorrow! For me! For Bree! For Riku! You have to fight for all of us! And if it's not enough, if it's not enough for you to realize why you have to continue your life...."
Brec looks down. Then looks up. Thw wind from the open window blowing her short hair everywhere.
"Then think about everyone else...
"All of the days we all spent together.... This past year. Summer... And everything else you could spend with them that I won't..."
A flash of everyone together crosses my mind. Along with a smile.
