Micah pov
All I ever wanted was right in front of me but I couldn't do anything other than let it go. Am I cursed to never have my own happy ending?
No I cannot start thinking like that yet. I hope Alyssa will forgive me when I am through with chemo, she can't forget all our years of friendship like that. * The same friendship you just spat on and walked all over. * My mind brought up.
Oh God, I started chanting in my head, * it is for her good* because that is the only thing that is preventing me from picking up the phone to call her, apologize and set things straight. Or better yet, go to her house and confess my undying love for her, face to face then kiss her.
I wish it was possible but it is not. At least not yet.
Micah, what is wrong. My mother asks as she came into my room and dropped the laundry basket down then starte
Alyssa pov. The exam period has been hard on me. Not only was I without my boyfriend. (I certainly broke up with Jake when I realized my feelings for Micah.)I was without my best friend too and that made me cranky as hell but right now. I'm feeling refreshed. There is only one thing to do today since I finished my finals yesterday. March to Micah and demand he tell me what is happening. I went downstairs already dressed when I saw my father pacing around the room like he has something huge going on in his mind. Dad, what is wrong. I asked him softly. Your mother is coming back today. He mumbled. After three months. She remembers where we stay and the way to get here, I am surprised, and I am surprised she even remembers who we are. I said heatedly but when my father only sighed but continued pacing. That is not what is
Alyssa pov.My nerves was all jumbled together on my way here, even as I stand outside Micah home, on the sidewalk I still didn't understand what I was feeling. I was not comfortable in my own skin. It felt like there was an itch inside my skin and that I can't reach it, I have a nagging thought that something important was happening today but I didn't know what. It was getting hard in just ignoring what I am feeling. I wish I could ignore it but I can't. I took in a deep breath and released it, repeated the exercise a few more times before I decided I was ready to go face Micah. He might have hurt my feelings but I refuse to let my mind dwell on that. I will not allow my attitude to get the best of me. I will be there for him because I know that he will be there for me too. As I turned to move towards the door, that was how the doo
Alyssa povArriving in the hospital, I followed behind Micah mother who moved with a purpose as if she knows where she is heading, when she stopped and greeted receptionist as if they were friends and added my name to the list of visitors allowed to see Micah, I changed my thoughts.She does know where she is going, just a few weeks without Micah being by my side, I have forgotten how Micah always behaved. This is Micah, most people are control freak or neat freak and although Micah is heading closed to being a neat freak, and he really isn't one. What Micah is, is a planning freak, the guy plans for every possible outcome and how to deal with which ever one happens to be a reality.That is Micah, and drives me crazy because sometimes, it is like he sees the future and it vexes me that he knows what I will do before it happens and sometimes he repeat the same words as I do when ranting ev
Alyssa pov... After controlling myself, I walked down to where the rest family is and sat down with them while we wait for Micah to come out, even if not better, he would get there someday. I have to keep reminding myself that Micah has 90% chance of survival that he will not be among the other 10%. He couldn't be, if he dares it, I would go into the afterlife after him so that I can drag him out then beat him within an inch of his life before forcing him back in his body. That made completely no sense but that is what I will try to do. That reminded me. I need to let my father know what is going on.I got up and went to the hospital cafeteria where I ordered food and drinks for the Vegas, knowing them, they will probably stay in the position they are in until Micah leaves surgery and is out of danger and giving them grief about how they don't take care of their selves. I know all this becau
Alyssa pov. I don't know how long I stayed there waiting for any news concerning Micah, but I do know that the seconds blend into minutes which in turn blended into hours, when the door open. I didn't know how long I had remained in that position but I know it was long to have my bones screaming at the sudden movement. Still I jumped up and ran to the doctor who started giving the news about Micah.How is he? Micah mother asked fearfully. He survived, he is in recovery right now, and we have removed as much tumor as we can without it affecting any of his mental capabilities. He is stable but resting now. Although he will have to go for chemo still. The doctor said but I could tell that Micah mother stopped listening after the doctor said that Micah was okay. Can we see him? I asked, it is not as if I didn't believe the doctor, of course I do but I want to confi
Micah pov.I woke up feeling groggy and disoriented but then again I just woke up after a surgery. I wonder what they did and if I am okay, since I am alive and they didn't mistakenly do something to kill me, I will assume that I am okay for now. I think that I can relax, I want to rest some more....**** Hearing voices woke me up and brought my attention to the fact that there are voices inside the room with me. Well technically that means that people are with me but I wouldn't know if they were quiet. I let out a groan before I mumbledCan you please reduce the noise, it is too loud.Of course the voices clearly belonging to humans increased as they rushed towards me and started asking about me.... Why can't they just do as they are told? So tired, need rest....
Alyssa povLooking at Micah smiling and laughing with his family around him brought joy to my heart. Someday, that may be us, surrounding a sick family member or visiting our parents when they have an anniversary. Yes, you heard that right. Our parents and that includes my parents too who decided that they want to do another wedding soon and they want it to be done on the day of their original anniversary. That is in eight months time which seems so far away, any way I decided to be a good girl and not say anything about my parents getting back together... The only reason why I am not shouting at my mother and not telling my father that he is acting stupid was because Micah sent me a look of warning after we reconnected and the rest came back here after going home to change clothes, take their bathe and also eat some homemade food, my father and mother ate in Micah home. I get that everybody is happy that Micah is getti
Micah pov.I can't believe that chemo was over within four months. I honestly thought it would take at least a year to get all the cancer out of my head but apparently, the cancer although I have been feeling those migraines for months, the cancer was still young and not too aggressive so they were able to fight it and most of it went with the surgery and although the chemo was not too bad, there were still days where I had no appetite and I kept vomiting everything that I forced myself to eat and sometimes I was so tired that I could hardly raise myself from the bed. Then my hair had to go. Alyssa was with me every step of the way even when I shouted at her and told her to leave me alone in my frequent burst of anger, she refused and stayed as close to me as possible. When I was too tired to do anything, she did everything for me including reading to my ears so that all I had to do was listen and when I lost m
