Heartbeats
Description
Tao never even knew what he had was fatal..he never even knew he had it. Apparently his heart has a different rhythm than most hearts, and he only has a week to live. How would he tell this to the rest of the group...how would he tell this to the person he loved? His heart was abnormal..was he?
Foreword
How was I supposed to tell this to them...?
"Tao, what is it that you have to tell us that all 12 of us are in the same room together?" Kris looked at me straight in the eye, crossing his arms.
"I--" I choked on my words, fixing my collar looking at everyone with sweaty palms.
"You?" Kris tapped his foot impatiently, everyone staring at us which made all the tension drop down on my shoulders as if it was the whole world.
"I..I only have a week left to live."
Gasps escaped everyones lips, Kris's jaw dropped at least 2 inches before going up to me, engulfing me into his arms as tears streamed down my cheeks.
"Tao..why didn't you tell us?"
"I--I just..I'm sorry."
