Prologue

The snow starts to fall very slowly. The sky is very dark and yet gray. They say winter is the time when things die like flowers, trees, and whatever other beautiful thing that was made from spring. Even people die and of course winter seems to be a time to cry for them.

Tea wore a white t-shirt and blue jeans. She had white tennis shoes and had brought her small gray strip purse. Her hair was past her shoulders but was pulled back in the ponytail. She had ocean blue eyes that would sparkle when she smile and were sad to look at when she cried which is what she was doing after she heard that her grandma was dieing from cancer. Tea sat in the hospital and look at her loving, sleeping grandma. The room had one bed and two chairs. The walls had nothing on them. There was a small table in the room. Tea's parents had gone home to talk. Tea got up from her seat to throw the tissue away in the already full trashcan.

Why did it have to be cancer? Why? Thought Tea.

Tea takes out another tissue and blows her nose. Tears start to fall from her eyes and she wipes them away with her tissue.

Why did it have to be my grandma? Why her she is the nicest lady I know and why couldn't be me instead of her? Thought Tea. Why? Thought Tea.

Tea covers her face with her hands and remembers being with Grandma during Christmas.

Nine years ago

Tea was at her grandma's house and she sat on the kitchen floor. The kitchen smelled of cookies, pies, and cakes. There were also the smell of turkey and some mash potatoes along with grandma's famous broccoli casserole. All the food was prepare for the big dinner that night and everyone who was a Gardner or relate to Mrs. Gardner was invited even friends. Tea had short brown hair and had on a Rudolph reindeer shirt on and some brown pants on. She had chocolate all over her face and a plate on her knees.

"Tea have you seen my chocolate cake for dessert tonight?" Asked Grandma.

Tea's grandma came in the kitchen and gasp when she saw Tea on the floor with chocolate all over her face. Tea's grandma at first frown at Tea and then she started to laugh. Tea looks up and smiles at her grandma.

"Tea dear, you are a complete mess." Said Grandma.

Tea still smiles up at her grandma.

"Well let's clean you up and make another cake." Said Grandma.

Tea's grandma takes the plate from Tea and reaches down to pull her up. Tea grabs her grandma's hand.

"Your not mad, grandma?" Asked Tea.

"I'm disappointed with you. That cake took a lot of work and I need to make one last dessert." Said Grandma.

Tea felt tears in her eyes.

"I wish I could help you grandma." Said Tea.

Tea's grandma rub her chin with her hand.

"Maybe there is. You help me make another cake and I promise to not tell your parents and maybe teach you some old dance moves from the eighties." Said Grandma.

"Deal!" Exclaimed Tea.

Tea's face went from sad to happy as Tea and her grandma make their way upstairs.

Nine years later

"Tea." Said a shaky voice.

Tea looks up and sees her grandma's eyes are open.

"Grandma." Said Tea.

Tea gets up out of the chair and walks over to the bed.

"Hello Tea, How's my granddaughter doing?" Asked Tea's grandma.

I can't tell her that I'm sad she's in the hospital. Thought Tea. "I've had better days." Said Tea.

Tea's grandma started to chuckle.

"I'm going to have to agree with you on that. If you ever ask how I'm doing." Said Tea's grandma.

Tea gave her grandma a gentle smile.

"Tea dear do you mind coming here. I have something for you." Said Tea's grandma.

Tea walks over to the bed where her grandma is. Tea's grandma reaches her bag from the table.

"I have something for you." Said Tea's grandma.

"What is it?" Asked Tea.

"It was your grandfather and I know I won't be able to carry it much longer." Said Tea's grandma.

"What do you mean?" Asked Tea.

Tea's grandma took a deep breath.

"It's alright Tea I know about the cancer…and not being able to hold on any longer." Said Tea's grandma rather softly.

"You don't know that. You'll be out of the hospital soon." Said Tea with tears in her eyes.

"Tea I can feel myself growing weaker and weaker and I know won't make it much longer. I'm not sure when I'll go, but it's drawing near." Said Tea's grandma.

"Grandma." Said Tea.

Tea's grandma reaches into her purse and pulls out a card with a monster on it and hand it to Tea. Tea takes the card from her grandma and examines it. She turns it from front to back.

"What is so good about this card?" Asked Tea.

"Your grandfather said he found it in Egypt which he thought it was interesting find. He thought it was a good luck." Said Tea's grandma.

"Why did he figure that?" Asked Tea.

"Well he had found me and got me to agree to marry him." Said Tea's grandma who gave a light smile.

Tea gentles giggle at the thought.

"I want you to have this. You see it was very important to him and before he past away he gave it to me thinking it was good luck and that my time has come I'm giving it to you." Said Tea's grandma.

"Why to me why not to your nieces or nephews?" Asked Tea.

"Because you are my only grand child and I love you like you were my very own daughter." Said Tea's grandma.

Tea takes her purse and takes out her wallet and puts it away.

"Tea dear remember that…I'm…always with…you." Said Tea's grandma.

Tea's grandma's eyes close and her breathing stop. The monitor that Tea's grandma was connected to stop beeping.

"Bye grandma." Said Tea.

She cried at the bed side of her grandma. Nurses and doctors came running in the room. Everything seem like a blur to Tea.
