The Greatest Gift Ever, Part 1

This is my life, this is my world.

God gaves me an amazing world with some amazing people and friends inside.

My parents, my friends, my family.

They love me so much. So am I. I love them so much. They're the greatest treasure I've ever had. They can't buy with money. 

I played with my friends at my house. Lola, Jeremy, Gerald, and Jazzie. They're my best friends. 

"Kells, now it's your turn," Said Jazzie. We're playing Snakes & Ladders. I know, that game is for the children under 10 years old. But we're still playing that until now. I'm almost 15, and I'll have my birthday on March. Now it's February.

"Okay," I shake the dice. "I got six!"

"Cool!" Said Jeremy. "I always going down when I played this game."

"Don't give up!" I said. We're enjoying the game together.

Right now I'm fine and I'm not feel anything, until.....

"Kells, what's that?" Asked Jazzie. She really confused.

"What do ya mean?" I became confused.

"The blood." Said Jazzie. "It's on your mouth." Now I'm afraid.

"You're kidding, right?" 

"I'm serious." I became worried. I ran to my bathroom and I saw by myself. The fresh blood is in the sink. Oh my gosh, It's happening.

"Kells?" Gerald knocked my bathroom door. "Is everything alright?" 

I can't talk. My mouth is full of my blood. I'm dizzy, I feel I want to blacked out. "Kells?" He knocked again. "Are you in there?"

"Yes, don't worry." I'm dizzy. Not dizzy, but EXTRAORDINARY dizzy. I want Gerald to call my mom, but It's hard to talk. I can't stand. 

........

I woke up.

But I'm not in my bedroom. I'm in the hospital.

Gee, I'm back to my 'Home'. I hate this.

Do you understand? Do you?

Actually, I have liver disease since I was 2 years old. I've known it since I was 8. Of course I'm really shocked. Before that, I've cirrhosis of my liver when I was 4. And I feel that. The problem is, nobody knows that I have liver disease, except my family. I don't want to talk about my disease to my friends, 'cause I don't wanna disappointed them.

I heard my parents and my doctor's conversation.

"Doctor, How is Kellen?" Asked mom with worried voice.

"Actually, It's hard to say this," Said docter. "His age is six months left. His liver is liver has hardened around 22%."

"Oh my gosh." Mom cried. Dad too. Me too. "I'm so sorry." Said doctor. "There is one way to heals him. Liver Transplant."

"Phil, we have to do that." Said mom. "I can't let him go."

"I don't know." Said dad. "I'm just worried if he doesn't ready yet. He's fourteen."

I can't believe it. I just have six months left to love the world. I wanna cry, but I can't.

Mom and dad come to my room. "Mom, what's happened?" I Asked. 

"Are you ready to hear this?" Asked dad. I answered, "Yes."

"Kells, your age is six months left." 

I'm not shocked, 'cause I've heared before. "Umm, It's okay. If that's my destiny, I can't beat."

"But I can't let you go!" Said mom. "I really love you, Kells. You're my lovely son."

"I love you too, mom." I said. "Don't worry, mom. Everything will be alright."

Actually, I don't think that everything will be okay. In fact, I'm kind of sad too. I don't want to leave my beloved people. They loved me, but I just leave it? It's not fair. 

If my destiny is like this, I have to love the world before I go to another place. Loving friends, Finishing junior high school, helping my parents, and show to everyone that I still can do anything, even that I have the worst disease I've ever had.

But, I'm not ready yet to say the truth to my best friends. I now, they can't stand to hear this. I've tried to keep this secret and didn't tell to everyone, but I know, Someday, they'll know it. 

When my grandmother was alive, she always said this to me:

"Just ignore your disease, and start to enjoy the world. Love your parents and your friends as you can. God gaves you a disease, that's not mean that god hates you. Nobody knows when we died. So, everytime, you must be ready. Keep nice to everyone that you know."

I always remember her quote. Yeah, she has the same disease like me, and she died. I really miss her. She always gave me a motivation to enjoy this beautiful world. I'll never forget her quotes.

What should I do now? Do I have to tell to my friends?
