After begging and pleading with his parents to see his sister they finally relented. So as it was he walked through the doors of the hospital with slight fear. Would she be like how she was last time, on the brink of death or would she be happier.

When he was outside her door he turned to his parents

"Can… can I see her… alone." They took one look at his face and let him go.

Auggie sat at his sister's bedside, just hoping that she would be ok. A machine beeped in the background and various substances were injected in to Riley. Auggie took a deep breath.
"Hi Riley, you always said that I shouldn't lie to you so I'm not going to" Auggie held back tears.
"I… I don't really understand what's going on. I know that… that you wanted to die, mummy called it suicide I called it desperate. I don't really want you to go I know I don't get to decide. I just want you to know if you come home I'll be the bestest brother ever." With that he kissed her forehead and walked out.


As Auggie walked through the school doors he felt a sense of dread. It wasn't that he didn't like school. He did it was just that he wasn't ready for everyone's assumptions. So when he finally got through the doors of his school he kept his head down and ignored most of the glances everyone gave him. The day went pretty smoothly until dinner time when a group of girls started laughing at him.
"Oh, poor, poor Auggie, his sister was too weak!" Auggie tried to keep his head down but a comment stopped him in his tracks.
"I bet she did it just to get away from him!" suddenly all the upset and anger Auggie had felt returned. He pushed the girl over.
"My big sister was the sweetest most loving person to have ever graced the planet, you didn't know her you idiot. If I ever hear you calling her again I will hurt you" suddenly he felt a small hand grab his arm.
"Come on Aug" Ava said. Auggie let himself be pulled away, his face red from anger.

It was the next lesson he was called to the headmaster's office, upon explaining what had happened the headmaster let him off with a stern warning and sent him home. His parents didn't say anything but he could tell they were disappointed, so he ran into his room.
