Sickness

The white sheets of the hospital bed cover my skinny body. My family gathered around me, tears in their eyes. The clock on the wall is ticking. Am I running out of time? I catch a glimpse of the doctor, their worried face scared me. My baby sister holds my hand, her touch gives me warmth. Grandma is waiting for me.

“Mum, dad, sissy, I love you”, I kept fighting for them, but I’m just out of energy.

I slowly shut my eyes and fall asleep, a sleep that I will never wake up from.
