Chapter Fifteen
In Sickness And In HealthI have been a mess, all day long. I haven't informed anyone yet, all I did was crying, curling myself up on the couch and cursing my body. Why me? Why now? I am so young.

I've only got a few minutes before he gets home. I haven't heard of him all day long. Not a text, not a short call. Maybe that's for the best. I don't want to shake up his world through the phone. But I am also a little bit worried. Why didn't he text me? He always texts me...
