Chapter 6: Happy Memories
There was silence. Not even breathing was heard. It almost seemed like the whole tent was holding their breath.
"L-leukemia?" Sarah breathed.
Pendanski nodded.
"H-how'd I get it?" Sarah asked shakily.
"Well, it's one of those diseases that you just.. catch," Pendanski told her.
"What can be done?" she asked.
"Well.. nothing. Nothing can cure it. But, there are treatments that can help fight it. But, nothing can cure it." He said solemnly.
"Will I live?" Sarah asked the question that was on everybody's mine.
Pendanski took a deep breathe. "We don't know. We have medicines that you can take, but if it gets really bad, you are gonna be sent to a hospital."
And then he left.
For about five minutes, there was silence in the tent. The silence was broken with a whimper.
The boys of D-Tent all looked around to see Sarah with tears in her eyes.
"How could this have happened? How?" She asked herself.
Squid went over and hugged her. "Everything's going to be okay.. it's gonna be fine.."
Sarah shook her head, the tears now coming faster. "No.. I had the perfect life.. the perfect family.. the perfect school.. the perfect friends.. the perfect everything. Then, I was about to get raped, so I killed him outta self defense. My parents deserted me.. they didn't believe me. Then I was sent here, and I'm about to get raped again, and then I find out I have leukemia.." She trailed off, and sobbed into Squid's chest.
Squid looked around for support. The boys just shrugged.
Sarah lifted up her head. "I'm sorry.. I need to be alone.."
And she ran out of the tent.
She sat against the back of the Wreck Room wall and reflected on the happier moments of her life.
~*Flashback*~
"Hey, Carly, isn't that guy over there cute?" Sarah asked.
"Yeah.. hey, doesn't he go to our school?" Carly exclaimed.
"Yup," She turned Carly. "How do I look?"
Carly gave her the thumbs up sign and smiled. "Great!"
"Okay, let's go!"
The girls walked the sexiest they could by the boy and his friends.
"Uh.. excuse me?"
Sarah turned around and it was the cute boy talking to her.
"Yes?" She smiled.
"Um.. aren't you Sarah Martin from school?" He asked nervously.
"Yes I am," She answered.
"Well.. will you go out with?"
"Um.. lemme think.." She turned to Carly and smiled.
"Sure!"
~*Different Flashback*~
They were in the waiting room of the downtown hospital. Sarah's grandmother had an operation for her breast cancer. The doctors weren't sure if she was going to be okay.
Just then, her grandmother's doctor came out.
"Well?" Her father stood up to find out if his mother was going to be fine.
The doctor smiled. "She's gonna be fine."
~*Different Flashback*~
Sarah was five years old, and her mother and father were in the delivery room, having a baby. Well, her mother was, her father was helping.
She was sitting in the waiting room, when another little girl came in.
"Hi, my name's Carly," The girl said.
"I'm Sarah. I'm five years old." She held out her five fingers. "How old are you?"
"I'm five too," Carly held out five fingers.
"My mommy's having a baby right now." Sarah told her.
"My mommy too!" Carly squealed.
"Cool! Where do you go to school?" Sarah asked.
"Um.. Su.. Su.. Su something. What about you?"
"Sutter elementary."
"Yeah, I go dere too!"
"Cool! Maybe I'll see you there!"
"Honey.. come and see the baby!" Her daddy came out and took her into the delivery room.
"Bye-bye!" She called to Carly.
"Bye-bye!" Carly called back.
"Say hello to Logan Michael," Her daddy told her when she saw her new brother.
"Hi Logan Michael," Sarah waved to him.
Logan opened up his eyes and smiled a little before falling to sleep.
~*End of Flashbacks*~
Sarah sobbed from those memories. After she had been charged with killing that guy, Carly stopped answering her E-mails and phone calls until she eventually blocked Sarah. Her parents stopped being cheery with her, and turned it into fake cheerfulness. Her brother just ignored her. When Sarah left for Camp Green Lake, her parents had left. That morning, Sarah had woken up to an empty house and a note that said:
'Good luck at camp. Bye'
Sarah had cried.
And, right now, Sarah cried some more.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
