After they got home, they talked about what was happening to Alex. Alice’s mom said that it is very sad and we have to do our best to help her family. We are going there once a week.
“But they said that it wasn’t that bad.” Alice said.
“Yes honey, but you never know, it could get a lot worse.” her mother replied.
“Why are you always so negative? Why can’t you just be a little positive sometimes?” Alice yelled at her mother. She stormed up to her room and logged onto her laptop. She went onto Facebook and started to look for her cousin.
Alex is Sick and tired. Probably not going to school for a while.
Alice looked for online friends and the little box said that there were 5 people online. She clicked on it to see who was on. To her surprise Alex wasn’t on. Alex was always on at this time in the day. But Alice’s boyfriend, Luke, was on.
Luke: Hey sweetie
Alice: Hey Lukie!
Luke: What’s up with your status?
Alice: Well…umm…
Luke: You can tell me honey I won’t tell anybody
Alice: Ok
My cousin was diagnosed with diabetes and she is really sick. They said that it wasn’t that bad but I don’t believe them. She said she has type 1 which is usually classified to kids. I’m really worried about her.
Luke: aw I wish I was there to comfort you
Alice: I wish you were here too
Luke: ugghh my mom’s calling me g2g
Alice: Ok bye see you on Monday
Luke: bye! Love ya
Alice: love ya too!
Alice looked at what other friends were online. Nobody interesting was online so she logged off. Then someone knocked at her door.
“Honey, are you in there?” Alice’s mom said.
“Just leave me alone.” Alice said trying to make her voice sound mad.
“Alice, I know that you’re upset about the whole Alex thing…” Alice cut her mother off
“MOM YOU DON’T KNOW ANYTHING! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!” Alice yelled so loud that the vase on her desk shook with her voice. The tears came again, this time stronger. She was upset and there was nothing anybody could do about it.
