His last word was so inaudible that Bradin and I didn't hear it. My eyes started to water, but I didn't want to cry in front of him. I turned my head and buried it in bradin's shoulder and cried not caring anymore.
"why ?" I asked him through tears.
"why what?" He asked me
"why did it have to be this way?"
I looked over at the couch , and my crying had awoken his little sister. I was amazed how much She looked like Bradin. Her hair reminded me of Bradin, it was perfectly unkempt, which made her very pretty. She had eyes the color of the ocean , and I remembered her name was Nikki. I had only met her a few times, but She went to my school. She looked like She had come here fast last night , based on what She was wearing. She looked kinda out of place , She wore a large tee-shirt over a pair of jean shorts that came down to her knees. I smiled at her , and She smiled back. She was definitely still tired , and her eyes would close for a minute or two between stifled yawns.
"good morning " I said , and She looked up at me.
"why were you crying?" She asked politely.
" I was just scared for Bradin, that's all." I stated solemnly.
" I cried last night " She informed me, "when we found out Bradin was in the hospital"
I got down off the bed and straightened my outfit, so that I looked better. Bradin's sister Nikki hopped up on the bed where I had been and He wrapped her in an embrace. He looked like a protective older brother, unlike mine. My watch read 7:09 and my mom said She'd be here at 7:15. I didn't care. I told Bradin I had to go , I kissed him once on the cheek and told him I'd be back. On my way out the door I asked if there was anything He wanted. He smiled and shook his head. I smiled and disappeared out of the doorway. I walked through the waiting room, here I found Ava and Johnny . Ava looked like She'd been crying, and there was a moist spot on the shoulder oh Johnny's shirt. I wanted to know what She knew but I didn't think now was the time to ask. I thanked them for everything they had done for me. I told them I would return later and asked if there was anything I could get them. They both smiled and shook their heads. I walked to the elevator and pressed the down button. The elevator was playing really corny music that I couldn't stand. It was almost like a prison for six stories. When I finally got off it I wanted to move.
"oww" I said turning to face the person I had run into.
" becky" came my mothers voice.
"mom" I replied
