Life is funny sometimes.
And not always the ha, ha kind. Like that one time where a
hot guy tried to kiss me and I fell. Down. Hard. And then
found out I had cancer.
I’m trying to be strong for my friends and my mom.
And I’m trying so hard to be “just friends” with that hot
guy, even though he seems to want so much more. But I
won’t do that to him. He’s been through this before with
his family, and I’m not going to let him watch me die.
So, I tell myself: Smile Ellie. Be funny Ellie. Don’t cry
Ellie, because once I start, I might not stop.
