Chapter 1
Discovery…
A young teen drummed her fingers on the arm of her chair as she waited for the doctor to call her in. Her long honey brown hair was pinned up with wooden chopsticks. She had a pretty face, with green eyes, a small nose, slightly rosy cheeks and full lips. Here she was waiting to see the doctor that called earlier telling her to come by that afternoon Her emerald green eyes, half closed out of boredom, scanned the room for some entertainment of some kind. The white hospital waiting room was furnished with two leather lounge chairs, one which she was occupying at the moment, and a glass coffee table with a stack of year old magazines underneath. An digital wall clock was hung behind the receptionist's desk. There were a few plastic plants near the waiting area and the doctor's office. Finding nothing interesting she grabbed one of the old fashion magazines and started to skim through it.
"Miss Kinomoto Sakura, the doctor will see you now."
Sakura looked up at the nurse who had just stepped out of the office with a clip board at hand. She gave a little nod to show the nurse that she heard her. The nurse smiled and without another word she sat behind the desk, doing some paper work. Getting up, she made her way to the door. Before opening it, she dusted off the invisible dust that settled on her short pleated black skirt. Opening the door she saw a man standing in a well organized office. He wore the standard white lab coat and white polo with black slacks combo. The man looked up from the records he was reading and smiled.
"Ahh! Good afternoon Miss Kinomoto, so glad that you can come." He said in a deep voice.
"Good afternoon, Dr. Karuma."
"Please sit down, I have some very...uh…troubling news for you" Dr. Karuma said, suddenly becoming serious. Sakura complied with his request, her face never changing expression, she was not the least bit interested with what he had to say. "The results of your medical examination arrived earlier-" Sakura looked blankly out the office window boredom edging in from the back of her mind "-and I'm sorry to say you are tested positive for leukemia….I'm very sorry." That caught her attention.
"Um….excuse me doc, but could please you repeat that? I thought you said I had leukemia. I must have heard wrongly" She said with a small laugh, thinking that she must have heard wrong.
Dr. Karuma frowned at her reaction. "You heard me right Ms. Kinomoto, you have leukemia."
Sakura's jaw literally dropped down to the floor. 'I have l..…leu…leukemia!'
She was totally speechless. She couldn't believe it…she had cancer! All the color drained from her face as she took in more information. Sakura quickly stood up and grabbed her medical records which Dr. Karuma was holding. And sure enough her results say that she did have cancer of the blood. "I'm very sorry Ms. Kinomoto."
"No…thank you doctor. I'll be going now, good bye Dr. Karuma." With a bow she was out the door before Dr. Karuma could utter a single word.
Sakura ran out of the office, pass the white walled rooms, through the corridors and out into the streets. Tears shown in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall. Wiping her eyes with the back of her hand stubbornly she started home. "How the heck am I going to tell them this…" she sighed. Shaking her head to clear her mind, she decided to miss the rest of school, seeing that it was only noon, and just go home. She had to think of a way to tell her dad and brother the news.
