Cursed by love

All of us arrived early in the morning in the hospital. Laurie´s parents stayed with her all night, and they are still there. This is the last day that they see her. It must be horrible if you survive own child.
Yes, this day has arrived yet. Laurie´s 18 B-day. Sorry, I´m crying right now. I remember our first birthday together. I was 10, and we fought because she told me that my hair was ugly. I wore colorful stripes splicing into my light blonde. All the time when I remembered on this crazy memory, it makes me laugh. But not know. Today I´m going to lose my sister…
“Katie, It´s your turn…” said Laurie´s mom. She hugged me. “Be strong!”
“Thank you, but I need more time. I think that CC, Ash, and Jinxx may go.” She nodded. I whispered to Alex that he can go with them.
"Yeah, I know. You should go there alone, Katie."
They stood and walked in the room. After ten minutes they were back.
I was ready to go, but Jake stop me. “I´m going.” Andy handed him an acoustic guitar.

“Today It´s for the twenty - third that I came to see you and I got inside.” I chuckled. I was going to visit her once in a week, but it was hard to get here. I sat next to her. “I remember the first time we met. The dark night. You were little-lost-girl, and now you´re 18. WoW. That evening we played together, and I loved your voice. Since then I´ve written this for you. It´s music for your song Lost in time. That was crazy how did you try to pick this melody together, and I kept your ideas and put into it. You wanted me to teach you playing the guitar. You weren´t bad, but it needed practice. It´s pity you can´t sing that for me.”
I played it for her and said my last words: “I´ve never had a chance to thank you for supporting me in bad times. Thank you, Laurie, for everything. I believe that we meet one day again, and I will get a chance to teach you that solo you wanted. Rest in peace.”

I followed. I walked in. “Hey, my Wild Child!” Oh, my god! Just now I´ve noticed how beautiful she was. “Yeah, so here we are. In terrible hospital room. You know, I fancy singing with you. I miss your voice, and I miss crazy girly company. After all, I very like you. You became a good friend to me I´ve never had. Excluding my family of course. I wish that you will be sitting next to me right now, and we will be laughing at all what happened to us. But the true is you can´t.” I promised myself I won´t cry, but I can´t stand it. I´m watching how life wears away from the young body. How her spirit is rising above us taking its place.
“The biggest shame is that you will never hear Andy tell you that he loves you. C´mon girl, get up!” Yeah, I was crying all the time. After ten minutes I realized that I must say my goodbye.
“Okay, tiger. That´s my time. I´m sorry that will end like that. I would give anything you want for hearing your voice for once. But I want you to say that I´m glad I met you. I will never forget you. Bye and see you once somewhere I hope.”

*Katie´s POV*
Finally is my turn. I shut the door staring at her. I was crying whole the time. „Why are you doing that to me? Huh? After all, we have survived, and we have done are you going to leave me alone? What´s wrong with you! You were my light, the reason that now I´m standing on this floor in the USA and spending fucking three years without you with my temporary boyfriend and my crush. Did you hear me? I´m no more hiding it! Yes, the true is that I love Andy whole years I do. And yes, I´m dating with the hottest emo I´ve ever seen. I´m living my dream without the most important piece that is missing. You! Don´t play games anymore! Open your eyes!” I was in anger attack. I was shaking with her and yelling. Andy was behind the door, and he heard everything. He walked in… “What´s going on here?” Shit! Shit! Shit! What Have I done?
I kissed her forehead and whisper to her ear: “I´m sorry, babe. I will miss you. But don´t worry. We will see again. Soon!” Then I left the room and left Laurie alone with Andy.
