A girl named Demi befriend A guy named Joe. They were as close as two can be. Joe, who is 9 and Demi, who is 7. Nothing would ever cause them to fight, not even candy, nor toys! There was only one problem.
Joe had cancer.
Joe, who had countless medications and was told he would only live for only a few years, but.. there's hope.
" ...How come your bald, Joe?" Demi said as she laid on the soft grass and fondled with the flowers.
"... Do you really want me to tell you?" Joe sighed as he looked at Demi' s eyes.
"Oh yes, please! I am really curious! " She giggled whilst holding Joe's hand. " Please..tell me!" She added.
Joe blushed. " If I tell you, promise me you won't forget." He was looking at her beautiful hair, her sparkling eyes, and her rosy cheeks.
Demi nodded. " I promise."
"..I....Have cancer." Joe looked down, his eyes were closed and his heart was pounding. " I never wanted to get sick." He added.
Demi looked at him, " Cancer?" she had never heard of it before. " What is...Can-cer? "
Joe flashed a smile. " It's something.....very...painful."
" Why...why are you smiling? Does it hurt a lot? " She asked oh so many questions.
" I'm smiling because you made me. And it only hurts when I think about it..it lessens when I'm with you." He had confessed.
Demi smiled sweetly.
Joe's birthday was near, Preparations were made, but Joe had only one wish. To celebrate it with Demi and only Demi.
" Happy Birthday, Joe! " She held his hands and began to giggle. " How old are you now~~?" She asked.
" I'm 10!" He laughed. " Let's go to my room, I have snacks!" He added.
Demi nodded and Joe led her to his room.
" Joe.." Demi sat on the rug and hugged a bear. " I asked mommy bout' cancer.." She closed her eyes tight, trying to hold back her tears.
"oh..." Joe sighed.
" Why didn't you tell me you were going to die!" She cried. His heart was pounding-- hard.
" because..because..... I DON'T WANNA SEE YOU HURT.." he hugged her. " I never ever wanted you to know.... never.."
"...how come?" Demi had hugged back and let tears escaped her eyes.
"because.. you make me feel like I have no cancer... you make me feel like... a bird, flying endlessly in the sky, soaring through the winds, and gliding through the sparkling stars." Joe pulled away, looking in her eyes.
Demi looked at him, flashing back and forth through his bald head. She headed to the bathroom and grabbed the scissors. She walked back to the room and smiled at Joe.
" what... are you doing? " He asked, curious of why Demi had a pair of scissors in her hands.
She just smiled. She looked at her long, silky, smooth hair. She closed her eyes and cut it.
" DEMI! " Joe was freaking out.
" Don't worry! I know what I'm doing!" Demi smiled as she continued cutting her hair.
Once she was finished, She gathered all of her hair and gave it to Joe.
" I'll give you my hair instead. " She lifted her hands towards Joe and giggled.
Joe smiled as he let tears flow down. " ... thank you, Demi.." He hugged her once more.
An unexpected thing had happened to Joe and Demi and it was...separation. Demi' s parents had to move to a another country and had to take Demi with them.Demi had no other choice, so she left Joe unwantedly.
12 years had passed since their last talk. Joe had been miraculously cured. He wanted to find Demi in California so he went out in a journey to find her.. to tell her that now.. she could be with him with out feeling the pain.
When Joe had finally found her, it was Demi' s turn. She, has cancer.
" WHAT?!?!" Joe said.
" I...have cancer.. and it cannot be cured. " She looked at him with soft eyes. " I'm really sorry..." Her tears fell down, her eyes were weak and her skin... so pale.
" Demi... why? I.. have nothing now." He ran towards her and finally hugged her.
Demi hugged him tight, " I have only 30 days to live.." she held him tighter.
"....Demi.." HE placed his lips crashingly on hers, his emotions were no longer kept and he had cried and cried. Thus, making the moment more meaningful.
Joe and Demi had gone out to make up. They wanted to know each other's journey through life, the struggles and obstacles they had to face.
--It was already the 15th day.
" Demi..? " Joe said while cuddling with her.
" mhmm?" She answered.
" Look there!" he pointed out the window.
" whe--" Her sentence was cut short.
Joe kissed her tenderly and once she opened her eyes, he was holding a ring.
" Will..you marry me?" He asked hopefully.
".......Why...." She started to tear up . " You know I'll die..." She looked down, trying to hide her tears.
Joe lifted her chin up, he held her face, " Because I love you"he told her. He smiled and kissed her once more.
Now, they're engaged.
--On the 25th day they were married, she had a beautiful wedding gown but... her condition was getting worse. Her eyes began to get swollen and her skin and lips turned pale.
Joe and Demi are now married.
--The 30th day...
Demi, looking --
***into Joe's eyes -- smiling. She was in the worst condition. She was so weak, so helpless.
Joe held her in his arms, he held her tight and looked at her. He was smiling.
Demi' s eyes slowly closed..
Joe hugged her as he let his tears fall and kissed her for the last time.
The End.
