Aileen just stared at me. I wondered what she was thinking. It was clear to me that she thought she was going to die. I had to say something. Anything.
"Aileen you're not going to die." I said slowly.
"How do you know?" She asked me.
"Because you're strong. You can get through this. Most of all you're my best friend and I believe in you." I was crying now but I didn't care. I had to let Aileen know how much she meant to me and everyone else as well.
"I believe you Jamie." She hugged me.
"Thanks." That was all I could manage to say. We sat in silence for the rest of my visit.
Kaylynn's POV
I hated hospitals. They always reminded me of my past. It was a few years ago and it was a perfect day with my mom, dad, and Carlos. We were in the park enjoying a picnic and each other's company. Mom and dad went to go buy us a few corn dogs since we love them so much but they never returned. 20 minutes after they had left a police officer came over to me and my brother. The officer was taking us to the hospital. I wondered why. On the way he told us that our parents had been stabbed. When we got to the hospital a doctor led us to mom and dad. They didn't look good. The doctor told me and Carlos to say our final goodbyes. They weren't going to make it. They died a few hours later. Carlos and I cried together. We only had each other. I was only 13 when that happened. I came back to reality. Everyone was staring at me. I waved them off letting them know I was fine and just kept to myself.
Kendall's POV
Kaylynn seemed to be in her own little world. I decided to leave her alone. After 5 minutes of silence Jamie walked into the waiting room. James grabbed her and kissed her. They looked so cute together and I missed Alyssa so bad. But I would never see her again. The pain would never fully go away. I didn't know if there was another girl out there for me. I did have feelings for someone else but it was insanely creepy. I couldn't tell anyone. The girl I had feelings for was Jenny but she was my sister for crying out loud. For some reason it was as if we weren't actually related though. I couldn't quite explain it actually. Then mom and dad walked into the room. They looked pained.
"Hey Jenny. Kendall. Can we talk to you two for a second? It's really important." Mom said.
"Sure. That's fine with us." Jenny said and we exchanged a weird look and shrugged. We followed our parents into the hallway so we could talk privately.
"So what's up?" I asked. I was scared. Was it something we did?
"Remember when Jenny had to get blood work done?" Dad asked us. Jenny and I nodded.
"She's fine but there's something that we have to tell you guys." Dad told us.
"As it turns out Jamie had a sister that supposedly died shortly after birth." Mom said.
"Jenny and Jamie's sister were born on the same day. We know this because we went over the records with her mom." Dad explained.
"When it came time to take you home there was a little mix-up. As it turns out Jenny is Tiffany's daughter instead. She's Jamie's sister. You guys aren't even related." Mom said. Jenny and I looked at each other in shock. I never even knew that Jamie had a sister. That means my actual little sister died years ago.
