The Price Of Happiness
No Square-Enix character belongs to me, I only use them to form this story.
My English is not native language and sorry if you do not understand everything, I also hope you like my story.
My hands are trembling too much, it is without a doubt the worst news I have been able to receive in all the years of my life, the tears are cruelly whipped on my face while I look down and choke a cry in a way that seems to cut my tongue and my vocal cords have worn out, I threw myself heavily on the table in the Doctor's office in the general hospital of Junon, I feel Barret's hand on my shoulder, trying to console me with such a statement, the Doctor apologizes and leaves the room , leaving us alone, quickly the huge man embraces me with tears on his face, dropping great frustration on his shoulder with eyes irritated from so much crying, to separate we decided to leave, all the other members of Avalanche were waiting for us.
When they came out their faces were more than worried, the whole atmosphere was tense, the Doctor only told the others that he was sorry for me, causing even more concern, everyone asked me what I had, I took a breath and let it out with a sigh. sad
-I was diagnosed with Necrotizing Fasciitis…-
Everyone knew how brutal it was disease, they began to support me and embrace me showing me all the love they had for me ...
Everyone except Cloud, he did not care in the least, but it seems that I'm glad he was going to die and in such a cruel way, that depressed me but now I was more afraid to see that my body would go slowly rotting until I die in less than a year, to see that soon a disease that is difficult to appear will kill me unjustly, it was as if death wanted to play with me, the others reproached Cloud for his unfair and rude way, but the I only say.
-That's how hard life is ... I have to finish the deliveries- he got up and prepared to leave ignoring all that environment that worsened after he did that.
They took me to the bar, the way back to Edge was really uncomfortable, nobody wanted to talk about it, even Yuffie tried to lift our spirits with their jokes and jokes but I just managed to make everything even more impossible to bear, Avalanch members They promised to come to see me more often the following weeks, especially Yuffie and Barret, who were the most worried apparently of everything that happened to me.
As soon as we entered Edge I felt my skin writhing in pain, which made everyone else worry though I quickly let out a smile saying that nothing was happening to me, apparently the pains would begin to make an appearance, there I knew that it was only the beginning of a long suffering from now on.
I opened the back door of the 7th Heaven and the children received me hugging me as tenderly, but in turn, desperately, it was a bad idea to leave them alone while they took me to the hospital, leaving them worried but not able, the little ones started to obviously asking what had happened to me, his insistence was even more because apparently "a certain person" told him something earlier.
-¡Tifa! We thought something horrible happened to you, Cloud told us that everything would change from now on with you. What happened, is it something serious?! Are we to blame for that for our antics?!-
Quickly open them and with the best calm voice possible, I whispered in a very cheerful tone that could hardly disguise the depression I had
- Why do they say that? I have nothing of my love, it's just a little anemia and it's a bit difficult to sleep, so they found me tired lately, it's just that...-
The little ones smiled and were happy, the others looked at everything with sadness, I understood perfectly that I should not tell them that I will die, it would be too much for their young minds.
After finishing that embrace that seemed rather eternal but comforting, the others approached and between that uncomfortable moment Yuffie took advantage to make the children not notice that something was wrong
- Hey little rascals, what do you think if we're going to play ... The first one who steals the stuff from Cloud will be the big winner!-
Both children jumped for joy and without thinking twice they ran to the room of the blonde, but when they came to this they noticed something strange, did the door have a key? The children returned to the ground floor, where they ordered me to rest and do nothing for the rest of the day, they would do it, both shouted and said that the door to Cloud's room was locked, I quickly went up, since I felt that something bad was happening, this door did not open, something bad felt like it was happening, but I decided to ignore it, since it was not the perfect moment for this kind of meaningless worries.
It was a night more than relaxing, fun to the point that none of the adults got drunk (which is impossible until now) and we just spent those days remembering far away, around 3:00 a.m. all but Yuffie, who his enormous stubbornness and guts, convinced me to stay to live with me after my critical condition, she slept with me if I felt any pain or something bad happened, it was a relaxing night in which I could finally sleep with another person in the same bed, that despite being friends, our strong bond of friendship was enormous. the morning was whipped by the horizon and the fine warm rays of the sun fell through the curtain of my room, listen to the Fenrir park. Nice hours to arrive in the morning I thought in my mind, since from the hospital of Junon, I do not know I knew no trace of Cloud, as if this ... had disappeared forever. The kitchen door was heard to open, the heavy feet that touched the wood of the stairs loudly could be heard, so much that it woke Yuffie, she still sleepy I yawn heavily while cleaning my eyelids.
-What time is Tifa?-
-Around 7:00 am, it seems that Cloud arrived, I will go to see him- I quickly jump out of bed ready to leave when Yuffie stopped me telling me he went with me to see him.
As soon as we left the room, we saw Cloud coming down the stairs with a huge sack on his back, the door of his room was left open and that was our perfect moment to enter, that was the worst idea I could.
The things of the little by little were no longer there, it is as if he left here, the tears were sad and above all, fury, they were stamped so hard that I ran out screaming at Cloud because he was leaving me.
-Cloud ! Damn son of a bitch ! - I threw a huge kick that the so easily elusive, Yuffie came and tried to calm us both, especially to me holding on tightly .
- Tifa calm down! Do not act so hastily- she took me tightly from the waist, but something bad happened, my body felt sore no more, the disease was coming to light, I moaned in a painful way which made Yuffie release me, Cloud remained quiet without caring anything to the common.
-Tifa I sorry…-
- Do not worry, but first of all I have to ask something to this evasive imbecile-I said with a lot of anger that was mixed by the enormous pain I was enduring, barely I could talk without it making me scream in pain.
-Do not bother me Tifa, I have to go
- You can know why you have all that in that bag- I say pointing to the object
-What did you expect? I'm getting out of here, it's disgusting to live with a sick woman like you, embarrassed to share a roof with a half-door- his dry words were horrible ... My chest felt horrible, followed by a pain worse and more bitter than that of Fasciitis, which Cloud said he made me draw tears, Yuffie gave him an excellent blow that only managed to make Cloud a typical scratch, since he was quite upset.
-You're a fucking asshole Cloud, Tifa has taken care of you all this time and you just are you going like that? She needs you now more than anyone else, STAY WITH HER FOR THE LOVE OF GAIA, SHIT FUCKING YOU WANT ME TO CALL OTHERS AND TO KICK YOU UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND?- Yuffie had his most serious and bittersweet face that I have ever seen him in his beautiful young face, no doubt she was afraid to be so angry, Cloud was scared to hear that he would call others, dropped heavily the sack of his shoulder and he said with a reluctant tired sigh.
-When" this girl "of rotten flesh dies, I get away, do you think- Both were stupefied, that comment was more than cruel, perfectly described what Cloud felt for, absolutely nothing.
