Stacy sat there crying, how was this happening to him? How was he going to tell Tony & Jay?
Or Skip Or Sid? What would they say? What would they think? He was starting to feel sick again.
"Hey Stacy." Jay said. Stacy didn't respond, he just continued to stare off in space.
"Stacy?" Jay called, He snapped out of his stare.
"What?" he said slightly startled
"What's been with you lately?"
"Nothing why?"
Stacy hadto fight back his tears, this was killing him.
"Stacy? Come on man what's happened?" Jay said softly sitting down next to him. Stacy still wouldn't talk.
"Please tell me what's wrong."

Tony heard the strange one sided conversation, He was curious.
"Jay." he whispered he turned looking at Tony. He motioned for Jay to "come here".
"What's going on."
"I wish I knew Tony, I can't get him to say any thing."
"Maybe I should try."
"What if we both approached him?" Tony nodded.
"Stacy?" Tony called walking up to him.

Stacy looked at him, his eyes red from crying.

"What's going on Stacy?" Tony asked
"I don't wanna talk about it." he said firmly
"Stacy Please?" Jay said sitting back in the chair next to him.
"I can't!" he got up trying to walk away. Tony stepped in front of him.
"Stacy were your best friends. Why can't you tell us."
"I don't know how."
"Then just say it." Jay said now standing next to him
"I can't"
"Stacy!" Tony snapped he was sick of this game now.
"I don't wanna do this, It hurts to talk."
"What hurts?" Jay asked practically begging
" Everything!"
"Then just tell us!" Tony yelled
"I don't want to hurt you!"
"Your hurting us by not telling us!" Tony said he yelled again
" I HAVE LEUKIMA!" Stacy yelled

Time seem to stand still the quiet was too eerie he looked over Sid & Skip, standing near by.
Not saying any thing he picked up his board , heading out.
"Stacy wait." Tony said softly , he didn't listen leaving the Zephyr shop.
"Stacy!" Tony called watching him walk way.
