CASSY'S P.O.V
I woke up the next day with a void in my heart. What was going on?? What was happening?... I felt like everything was just falling apart and I didn't know why. I took my shower and dressed up,took some clothes for the weekend and left.
"Hi Vicky." I greeted half heartedly.. I didn't know what was going on and I was scared. She gave me a half smile and motioned for me to sit down.
"How are you cassy?"
"I'm fine?" I said confused.. Why was she acting this way??
"Are you sure?"
"Yes Vicky. What's going on?" I finally asked and tears welled up in her eyes and almost immediately, she burst into tears.
"What's wrong Vicky??" I finally asked again , panicking this time.
"I- I'm so sorry cassy. I- I wanted to te- tell you and I didn't know how to over the phone?"
"Could you just tell me what hashappened vicky?!!" I yelled and she flinched.
"I'm sorry for yelling but please just tell me what's going on Vicky cause I'm really freaking out here ." I said calmly but still freaking out.
"Your mum" and I looked immediately at her.
"What happened to my mum?" I asked.
"She- she's "
"She's what? What Vicky?"
"She's passed away."
"What?" I said confused.
"What are you talking about?" I was so confused.. Why would she say s**t like this to me? Why would she prank me this way? It was not right.
"Your mum's passed away cassy.. She's dead." She said again breaking down at the last part of her absurd sentence.
"Okay... could you stop with the prank? I fell okay so please stop cause it's no more funny " I said which made her cry more.
"I'm not joking cassy.. I am so so sorry. She got into a really bad accident and they couldn't save her. She was a goo-"
"Shutup!!! Shut up!!!!!" I screamed as tears flowed down my cheeks.. this was all a lie.. it couldn't be true.. nonononono.
"Look Vicky.. I think you're mistaken. I'm going to call my mum right now and she'll pick the call and you'll see that everything's fine" I said and laughed uneasily. I dialed the number and it kept ringing and kept ringing and kep-
"Ahhhhhh!!!!!!!" I screamed as I threw my phone on the floor.
"Cassy!!" Vicky yelled as she ran to me. I said down on the floor.
"No no no no no... this can't be true. She isn't dead. She isn't dead" I kept repeating until I couldn't anymore and just kept crying. My idol. She was gone and I didn't say goodbye to her.. I didn't see her for the last time. She was gone. Forever.
Losing someone is a really painful thing. The most painful thing is when you dont even get a chance to say goodbye. Maybe you're at the other side of the world and you lose that dear person or he or she was fighting for their dear life in the hospital whereby you were at home, sitting down thinking everything was going to be okay but then it was not cause you never got a chance to tell that person how much you loved them and you didn't say goodbye. Cassy is someone who had lived with the guilt of her father passing away and his body not being found but then her mum brought her out of it and then she loses her too, never getting a chance to thank her for not blaming herself forever, to thank her for being strong for her and supporting her decisions.. she never got the chance and will not get it again so I urge all my readers out there, please love everyone that is dear to you in your life because time doesn't tell you when they'll leave you. I have learnt that. I love everyone who is reading this book. ❤❤
