Roxas
"Ms Strife?"
Roxas' mother looked up from her book. Roxas was busy studying the whites of his eyes in his mother's compact mirror. Why did they look so….yellow? And ughhh, why did his back hurt so badly? And why, in the name of hell, did he keep puking every other hour?
Let's just say, he felt like utter crap.
"Yes, Doctor Ansem?"
"I'd like to speak with you outside, if it's alright with you," he said and motioned outside the room.
Why couldn't he say it whatever he needed to say in front of Roxas?
Experiencing another wave of nausea, Roxas brought his knees up to his chest and rocked back and forth slowly, to maybe try and settle his stomach.
"Damn you, Stomach Fairies," he muttered quietly. Resting his chin on his knees, he sighed.
Right now, he should be with Axel, Sora, and Riku at the movies, watching some movie that they picked when they got there.
But no, instead, Roxas was sick in the hospital, with a doctor secretly telling his mother something.
Something that…..seemed to have her really upset.
"I'm fucked…"
It took a lot to get his mom upset.
Dr. Ansem walked back in, and Roxas' mother walked behind him, her eyes swimming with tears and her lip quivering.
"Roxas….." the doctor began to say, then paused.
"Just say it, what do I have?" he said impatiently.
Normally, Ms. Strife would have scolded her son for being rude to an adult, especially since this particular adult was his doctor. But she didn't say anything, instead she had her face in her hands.
I'm really fucked.
"I don't want you to be alarmed. We can put you through radiation and chemotherapy and see-"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Don't even tell me that I-"
"You have cancer."
