NICK'S POV
PRESENT DAY
December 22
"Nick!!"
I see Tracy crying as she runs towards me while entering my bedroom. She throws herself at me and I was surprised why on earth she was crying. I hugged her and tried to calm her down but she was literally shaking in fear.
"Hey. What's wrong? Another fight with Clyde?" I asked.
She shakes her head in response and continues crying on my shoulder.
"What's wrong baby sis?" I asked as I cup her cheeks while wiping her tears.
"Nick..." She sobs.
"What? Why are you crying like this? Did something happen to Clyde? Tracy what the hell is going on!" I exclaimed.
"Im sick." She muffled.
My brows creasing as I try to understand what she was trying to say to me. Her eyes tells me that she looks so scared and she keeps shaking her head in disbelief.
"What the fuck do you mean by that?" I demanded an answer.
"I have..." She trails off with a trembling voice.
"I have cancer." She cries.
I paused and watch my own sister cry in terror. I'm trying to sink in what she just said to me. I stand on my feet and shake my head in disbelief of what I said. I pulled my hair back. Fear started growing in me and for no reason I'm so mad. I am literally mad at myself.
"No. That's gotta be a joke. You're not sick. You don't have cancer." I spit as my tears gathers in my eyes.
"Nick.. I went to three different doctors this week to confirm it and it's positive. I have throat cancer." She cries.
I hurriedly ran to her and wrapped my arms around Tracy. Both of us cried. Oh god I don't have any money for her treatment. I'm so scared of what's gonna happen to her.
"Who knows about this?" I asked.
"Just you, me and Clyde. I'm so scared Nick. I'm really scared. I don't wanna die yet." Tracy cries on my shoulder as it breaks my heart even twice as hers.
"The doctor said if it spreads through my head... I'll..." She trails off with her shaky voice. I held her tighter around my arms.
"No. That's not gonna happen to you. I won't let that happen Tracy. Fucking no."
I'm scared too but I need to be strong for her. I kissed her temple and hugged her tight again. "I won't let anything happen to you Tracy. I'll do everything I can to save you. I'm not gonna lose you."
First I lost my mom, then Catherine and my son and now Tracy? Why is god punishing me? What did I ever do wrong to punished like this?
"You're all that's left with me." I say.
December 23
I look at Tracy and finally found the reason of her unexplainable weight loss this week. I thought nothing serious was wrong with her but I guess cancer had strike into my sister too.
"Just go and spend Christmas with Savannah this holiday break. I know she wants you to spend it with her. I can stay at Clyde's." Tracy tells me.
"Trace I need to look after you and make sure you drink your medicines."
She smiles. "I'm fine. I'll be fine. Don't worry too much. Clyde is there to nurse me anyways."
"Trace." I warn her that I want to go with her this break to make sure she is safe.
She hugs me. "Nick I know you love Savannah. Don't be too hard on yourself. I really really like her for you. She loves you so much. So be with her. I'll be okay."
